Your Turn to Chase Me, Reborn For Revenge

Chapter 40 - Lunch Date?

April drove all the way to Walker interiors she enjoyed her newfound freedom of driving and independence and creativity that the job would allow her to have. She felt she had really made great progress in this life. She parked her car in the underground car park and she grabbed her bag before exiting her car.

Today would only be her second day working here and after yesterday she hoped to have no further issues with Emily her manager. Just as she headed for the lift she saw Sophie and Sean arrive at the same time beside her. She pressed the lift button and waited as they approached.

"Good morning," April offered a friendly smile to both Sean and Sophie.

"Morning," Sean replied as he kept his head down continuing to text away on his phone.

"Hey, so yesterday was a little bit chaotic. I wonder will we see any more elites today. I have to say Dean Davis is everyone's, perfect man." Sophie rambled on as the lift arrived and they all got in together.

April hit their floors button and Sophie continued, "I mean our manager is pretty and all but hey she has no chance with Dean Davis, be careful though I saw the looks she was giving you."

April nodded and thanked Sophie for her advice, "Thanks for the advice, I intend to keep my head down and work away. I will only meet Dean... I mean me Davis for work purposes." April doesn't know why she was explaining and her here she was rambling on just like Sophie had.

The lift door opened wide and all three of them got out one after the other. April looked up and see that Emily's desk was empty so she heaved a sigh of relief for now. Next, she saw Paul and Aarna walking from the coffee point in the corner of the room towards their desks.

April smiled as she saw Aarna approach her, as always she looked bubbly and friendly., "Morning Aarna, hi Paul." April greeted them both.

"Hey," Paul glanced her way before sitting down at his desk.

Aarna beamed in response, "Good morning, im so gas you came back. Sometimes people run after the first week or day."

April wondered what Aarna had meant but she didn't enquire instead she smelt the coffee in her hands, "Can you show me how to use the coffee machine?"

"Sure no problem." Aarna waited while April grabbed her bag under her desk and headed towards her again. They both went to the small kitchenette in the corner of the office. Aarna took the time to explain everything from coffee too who to approach for help, who to avoid and even some past celebrity clients they had.

This was the first true female gossip session that April had had and she was enjoying how animated and funny Aarna was as she told her stories. They finished off their coffee in the break room before returning to their desks.

But before Aarna sat down she asked April, "Lunch today remember to welcome you to the team, no going back on your word."

April smiled and nodded in response she had no intention of running and even looked forward to lunch with Aarna, she was bubbly and fun to be around. Her gossip was light hearted and was never about hurting other peoples feelings.

April switches on her laptop and dove straight into work, she researched fabric and materials to use. She had an idea for Deans vibe, after last night she knew a little more about him and what he may like.

After a few hours of working straight, she had totally lost herself while building up a visual interior design to show Dean. She hadn't noticed the time until she heard heels approach her desk and she looked up. She saw Sophie and Aarna with their bags on their shoulders waiting for her.

"Is there something..." April wondered if she jad done something then Aarna spoke up.

"Lunch remember, just us girls. The boys went for tacos and we are going to one of the nicer spots down the street."Aarna answered.

Only then did April look around and see that Paul and Sean had already gone.

The lift door opened and Emily got out. April stood up and lifted her bag on her shoulder before walking with Sophie and Aarna to the door.

Emily was wearing another provocative low cut dress as she walked into the office. She glared at them, why can't she be friendly thought April.

Emily there down her bag and bellowed, " And where do you all think you are going. Don't you all have huge projects your working on? Yet you all think you have time to go for lunch together like you are all in middle school or something."

Aarna slightly fidgeted beside April and it made her furrow her eyebrows. Boss or not she should not bully others. So she spoke up, "Sorry I know that I am new here but aren't we all entitled to a lunch break? We would not take any longer than the break time we are slotted."

Emily glared fiercely back, "I am your boss and as your boss, I am telling you, you are allowed a lunch break but the allotted time for lunch is no longer an hour but a half an hour as we are so very busy."

"That's fine as the company comes first we will be back shortly," April replied and then she ushered the two quiet girls into the lift and out of the company.

"I think there is a cafe, shall we head there? It'll be a quick celebratory bite." Asked April as she stared at the two shell-shocked girls.

"What the..." Aarna started to enquire.

"Yeah, no one speaks to Emily like that, let alone stands up for themselves. You also put her in her place. I am so jealous you had me wanting to watch but hide at the same time." Sophie replied quickly.
