Chapter 8
Valeriu Point of View
Working in researching stream, however exciting and fulfilling it is, it also comes with many folds of frustration and disappointments.
No matter how successful the product we made is, there is still a vacant room for improvement and if we do not fill it up by ourselves, the rival labels take it as an advantage and bring out their own product with completeness that we couldn't give.
That can be counted as one of the setbacks of being a research doctor. We tend to be impossibly perfect so as to bring a good product to people and good income and name to the company.
I've been working that way from nearly fifteen years as a chairperson to the business I started from scratch and had been trying to be a perfection as a medical scientist from nine years.
Hours went by, days and months went by, years ran faster than expected and in the past fifteen years of my career and thirty-two years of my life, I only but focused on my studies and business.
Looking back, I never once thought I might've missed out something –
Until she came by.
VeiraDea Lupus, the fake owner of my business and goddess of deceit.
She has a natural talent of coping up with the situation with unimaginable sense of lying on the spot. She can make and break the stories at her will. She has the capability of fooling people by trapping them in her words.
She is a great talker!
Never had I experienced such unpredictable things until she walked into my office as my boss of my own company. She always has something new coming out of her mouth and what is intriguing is, she makes it sound so genuine and true.
I give it to her, that kid has more light in her than we have it in high intensity light rooms here.
"Are you going to pout for your whole life?" I asked with a chuckle when I saw a very tired Dan walking into my bedroom.
"She brought a whole country of things into her room and I had to make nearly forty-three trips to complete move her things to her room. Boss, why do you want her in your house? She is a trickster, Mr. Cazacu." He rambled without a break. Gulping down the whole jug of juice, he plopped down on the couch with a huff.
To answer him, even I don't know what made me make such an offer to that kid. I just know I found her pretty fascinating.
"Now that she is acting her part, it is good have her under my nose; easy to discuss business with her." Well, that is one of the reasons too.
"Why her? We can give the responsibility to anyone from our circle. They will do a better job in acting." I'm surprised Dan still did not get it.
Veira is not just there to act. It is much more than that.
"That, my friend, you will have to realize own your own. Be her personal assistant and follow her without any questions. Don't worry, the company and I will be just fine."
I don't understand the cause behind my confidence but there is some kind of itching in my heart which feels good.
Also teasing and breaking the shields of her cool is entertaining.
After Dan grumbled to himself for straight fifteen minutes, he left my villa with a frown. Few minutes later, the kid came out with a proud smile on her face.
Seems like she finished unpacking her stuff!
Walking into the living room to where I was sitting, she looked down to the book I'm reading and blinked a couple of times with a frown.
"Is that book imported?" Surprised at her question I nodded positively.
The book I'm reading is not something that everyone would know about. Even the people with strong sciences background cannot tell what branch of biology does the topic of the book belong to.
"From which universe?" I'm sorry?
"Ey?"
"But I think whoever made this book is a genius. Arrange alphabets as you like, sell it and people with unique mindset like you would buy them."
"You got me there. It's a biological terminology and luckily I found this book in our universe." I jested out. She really sounded funny when she did not understand what's written on the cover of the book.
That got me silently cracking.
"I'm making dinner for myself, want some?" There was no unfamiliarity in her behavior. To my amazement, she acted very conversant and homely as if she is used to live here.
There was no hesitation or awkwardness. She is just –
"I'll have whatever you make; no allergies, no preferences, not picky" She gave me a casual nod and walked to the open kitchen to prepare our dinner.
Something about the whole conversation and action seemed so natural and familial and to say it was our second time talking to each other and first day living together.
Like a pro, she got the stack of knives prepared, washed vegetable and chopped them like a master chef. She was fast and precise. Next up, she prepared meat and made some simple meat dish with mixed sauce she made it herself.Vegetables went into salad and a simple soup made to digest the food well.
In one word, the dinner looked delicious and healthy. Ah that makes two!
Setting everything on the dining table, we had out dinner silently. But all through the time, there was something that is making me very curious.
When I proposed her to move in with me, she lost her calm for a moment indeed but she accepted it readily after putting some thought into it.
She did not even ask for my motive. She did not fear me or worried that I would do anything to her.
Is she that chill?
Or is she so sure I'm not capable of doing anything to her?
Putting away the dishes, we both sat in the living room. She brought a paper and placed it in front me.
Raising a brow at her, I glanced at her for a minute to see if I can read anything from her face but met with nothing.
I took hold of the paper and saw what she got in for me. The heading itself states the purpose.
It was a document of rules and conditions.
Gazing back at her, she moved her hand in front of me gesturing me to read it well. There were few rules that makes sense and few conditions that makes no senses at all.
One, none of the both shall not pry into each other's personal space. Makes sense!
Two, none of us shall insult the other in any manner since each of us has our own set of calibers. Makes sense!
Three, personal bedrooms are off limit to enter. Makes sense!
But there is the next one that makes no senses.
Four, Mr. Cazacu vows to not fall for Miss Lupus's charms.
Charms? What kind of charms is she indicating there, dear lord?
"May I ask what charms are you talking about?" I asked pressing my lips in a focused grim.
"My girlish charms of course. Mark it, I'm not interested in creating history with a love story." Girlish?
Her?
"My my, my, kid, long hair and handful of good breasts are not the only elements that makes one a girl. There is nothing feminine in you. At least I have seen any yet. You don't have to worry about falling for your girlish charms."
She is bubbly, fascinating, pleasantly unpredictable, very tricky and many more but she is not a girl by conduct.
She only looks like a girl. Is she a girl in other aspects too? I have to wait and watch.
Hearing my words, she bit down her lips in anger before she smiled sweetly in response. "That's good then."
A few more conditions and I'm done with the whole list. I signed in the designated space wordlessly and gave back the paper to her and asked her to hand me another copy of it.
"So, what are you planning to do the first thing in the office tomorrow?"I inquired her casually.
She has good knowledge in business and a good judge of a character, that made me even more curious of what new change she would bring tomorrow.
She shrugged, popping a candy in her mouth. "I don't like a bunch of your directors. I'm going to butter them."
That she would do a great job undoubtedly.
"Why buttering if you don't like them?" I would be annoyed to care about such a bunch. Actually, I am!
"More the reason to butter them. Who would I point out to when there is a mistake? I will be the good girl in the whole company and will make them blame among themselves." Giving me a brief explanation, she stood up and started to walk towards her room when I called out her name loudly.
"Veira!" I called out loudly.She turned back and stared at me expecting me to talk to her. "You called me?"
Just then my fluffy dog ran into my arms and I caressed it fondly. "Had a good long sleep, Veira? Look how bloated you look." I caught her huge face in my hands and petted her head just the way she likes.
"Ah, my pet's name is Veira too." I said producing a bright smile designed with mischief, custom made for her specially.
Why I so want to rattle her, I don't know but I just find myself love teasing her.
Let's see what she has in store for tomorrow!
