That One Deal by Barnali Bhuiya (ebook reader .TXT) 📗

Torturing Her

"Thank God. It was only a dream... Now, he's haunting me even in my dreams...", getting up suddenly like seeing a nightmare Luna feels sort of breath.

She gives a gaze on the bed David is supposed to sleep. "He's already up..."

"But Luna pull yourself together. It might be because I was thinking about him... How can he kiss me in my dreams! No,no I must not let my guard down...", Luna hits her head lightly.

Hearing the footsteps near the door she falls asleep closing her eyes.

"Didn't wake up yet...", staring at her for once he goes to the washroom. Luna sighs,"Let's wait till he goes out. But I've to go to work too and it's my first day there also...."

After awhile David sees Luna is not in the room. As usual getting ready he goes for breakfast. In the mansion they have many rules all set by the young master who has no relation with his family in this aspect. But eating together or eating at the same time with someone is not a rule. As David likes to eat alone, sharing the dining table with anyone is not one of the things he likes. The fact is somehow he doesn't mind to have breakfast with Luna or to say more clearly he likes to share the dining table with nobody else but Luna. 

What he hates is being late and today Luna is still not here. David gives a stare at his watch and looks infront of him.

"You are two minute late.", he says sounding serious while coughing.

"Doesn't even say good morning! You are two minute late! So what? Even he counts on this time...", Luna's face is more like she's cursing him deep down.

Looking at David's gaze,"Umm,I woke up late...", taking her seat she takes a bite on the bread. Like she's in some sort of problem,she finishes eating so fast and giving a smile to Mrs. Jessy she goes back to her room.

"Is she still angry at me?",he thinks. 

In the office

"Good morning bro.", hearing Sydney's voice David stops working,"Morning."

"Umm, they've selected new designers. Do you wanna talk to them or?"

"No. It's ok.",the tone is not so heavier as always. Sydney starts to get a bad impression,"Does he know it?"

"Ohh...", David's eyes are fixed on the computer and it makes Sydney believe that he knows it for sure.

"What is going on? How come Luna and those designers place are different. Now, I'm sure he knows everything.",

Getting up David goes to Sydney,"Go and tell Mr. Jack to take care of Mrs. Luna."

Turning back Sydney coughs,"So you know it... "

"You think you can hide it from me?",he says in a cold voice.

(Coughing)

"Umm,you know Mr. Jack is very tough as a mentor. He'll make her suffer badly... ", Sydney says.

"It's ok. He's the best here though."

"I hope you can bear the consequences later...", with a sigh he goes to Mr. Jack.

"What do you mean?", getting no reply he stares at Luna. She doesn't know yet who's the boss of the company she is working for. 

David smiles devilishly,"It's gonna be fun. Good luck."

Luna was looking around when somebody interrupts her,"Are you done?"

It's kinda rude so Luna turns around and sees who's it,"Umm,who..."

"You can call me Mr. Jack. Here are some files study them well first...", not even waiting for her reply he vanishes from her sight.

"Some. It's so much... Woah! Where did he go?", Luna looks at the huge hill infront of her and she starts to sweating,"You can do it Luna."

Smiling at Luna's behaviour David goes back to his office. He knows Mr. Jack well,he won't fall in love with her. He can't take care of any of his girlfriend that's why for many years that guy is still single and not in a hurry to find a girlfriend. Rather he hates relationships but he's a great mentor though he's tough but he knows his way.

One by one Luna finishes reading all those files and  goes to Mr. Jack. 

At Night

As Luna is late so David also didn't go back to mansion but staying in the office. All days hardwork made Luna tired,"It's already late. How I'm gonna go back?"

But suddenly her eyes stops at a car. "Mam,Boss told me to pick you up. Get in.", opening the car door a man stands infront of her like a gentleman.

"David..."

Going to the room Luna feels so angry so she goes to the dining table. Mrs. Jessy serves all the delicious foods on the table. David already told her to serve the foods once Luna will be at home.

Luna is dying in hunger but still she doesn't eat but awaits for David so they can have dinner together. 

After sometime when David goes there, seeing Luna didn't eat yet he feels kinda surprised. "We're you waiting for me?"

"Who says I was waiting for you?... I was just... Umm,I didn't felt hungry so I was waiting to get hungry...", saying so she starts to eat and David sees Mrs. Jessy is smiling.

After finishing dinner Luna goes back to the room while David is done but he doesn't go. "She was waiting for you.", smiling again Mrs. Jessy goes to the kitchen.

David smiles and going to their room he sees Luna is sleeping on her little bed again. Taking her in his arms he puts her on the bed. As Luna was tired so she fell asleep soon after she jumped on her little bed. He sleeps beside her but not touching her. Turning his face towards her he keeps looking at her and goes to touch her face but he doesn't. Closing his eyes he falls asleep too.

The Next Morning

"When did I crawled up here?", getting up she thinks she slept on the bed herself. David is still sleeping,she stares at him. Something that she can't resists,"He looks so cute while sleeping..." But she doesn't touch him,"It'll be over after two years. Luna,you must not fall for him..."

Days go like that. Mr. Jack gives her too much work including getting a coffee for him and even though Luna gets angry but it's her work,she must hold onto it tight. Cheering herself up she does everything perfectly.
