Delicate Dove

Delicate Dove

He was standing atop the roof of the tallest building in the state, ”xxx ” was his success. Looking through a glass window… His eyes were piercing the lights before them. He looked on to the dimming flickering lights and then back on to the table, there lay a pile of files dirty and dusty.

”Party B sent an email to Mr Williams, telling them to join Party C for some new cosmetics. ”

John reported.

He had his eyes glued to the pile of files, but when he heard about the new issue the company was facing… He dialed a number in his phone and the phone was picked up in its first ring.

”Hi, my darling. ”

A sweet voice echoed from the other end of the phone.

”You better keep your material to yourself. ” He ordered.

”What?! … Alex! come on, darling. They aren any type of rubbish! They are my fresh manufactured cosmetics with best designs from the Italy and you know how valuable those are! Every woman in the city craves for them… ” He cut her in the middle.

”Keep that stuff to yourself, Don you ever sell them off without Mr Williams permission. ” He spoke.

”No, I haven any plane on getting them sold… ” but before she could inform him the twist, the call went off.

”Sir, I know I don have to worry about the brands now. ” John Spoke.

The man of few words kept his phone back in his pant pocket and didn said anything…

”We still have some matters to deal with… ” John explained carefully.

They discussed the matter till the night sky came and everyone got more busy for the next month project plans.

John and Lincoln were busy arranging the files in his office when Miss Andrea came running in to the office. Miss Andrea Stream was the best designer in the country. The palate ”Miss Rose ” belonged to her. She had a large curvy figure, with blonde hair tied in to a bun and red lipstick covering her lips. Her long thin eyelashes flickered now and then, She truly was a beauty with a mind.

”Where is Alex? ” She screamed her lungs out.

”Would you mind lowering your voice. ” Lincoln spoke out angrily.

”Don tell me, He went searching for me. ” She kissed her boyfriend Lincoln on the cheek and gave John a hug and then sat down on the jacquard comforter.

”No, He is busy dealing with the projects. ” John replied.

”I see. ” She nodded and started to search out something in her bag, after some moments of searching she pulled out the mobile phone and turned it over to show them a screenshot of her signature on the William papers.

”The William Brothers might get happy ” She joyfully announced.

”Oh! ” John gasped…

”Also, I sold my half shares to someone really trusting. ”

”What?! ” John almost fell off…

”How am I going to report this to Mr Smith?! ”

”Thats your problem? ” She shrugged.

”The Young Mr William would get the most happiest, but did you ever thought how Mr Smith will react? ” Lincoln couldn help, but ask.

”No, nothing will get out of our hands. Chill! ”

Thats when Alexander Smith entered his office with his hands clasped behind his back. Andrea threw her self in his arms and snuggled up his chest. He pushed her slightly. ”Behave ” Lincoln called out.

Andrea laughed and kissed Alexander on the cheek.

Alexander remained silent and then sighed

”What did you do? ”

”I sold my half shares. ” She spoke softly.

”That was not necessary, Miss Stream. ” He kept his calm.

”But, still… To me it was necessary to sell off my shares to such a talented girl. ” She whined.

”Andrea, Don act childish. ” Lincoln told her.

”Didn you informed us that you have no plans on selling the shares? ” John busted.

”Oh, Seriously…Yeah! Its simple, I just happen to have a plan! ” She whined again.

John knew dealing with these women will only get his head ache badly.

”Nathan should be waiting for the coverages, I may leave? ” John asked

Alexander nodded and sat on his big black chair.

John left with Lincoln.

Andrea stood there quietly not leaving still.

”What is it? ” Alexander asked

”Won you ask me, To whom I shared the company? ”

”Not interested. ” He said simply.

”Even if it is related to Dove. ”

Alexander felt his heart tremble on hearing her name.

”What is with her? ”

”Look, Alexander. She was the only one I could trust on to… She is honest and brave. Talented and experienced and on top of that she is my best friends wife. Ah, I am also friends with her. I think my company is in good hands… ”

Alexander spoke up in between ”Did my wife ever agreed to your decisions? ”

She shook her head and said ”She doesn know… ”

”How can you just do that? Without her permission? You messed it up, Andrea Stream! You messed it up! ” He roared slamming the table. Andrea got a little scared but kept her calm and tried to console Alexander by telling him that she will get her agreement, but Alexander again cut her off by telling her that this was not a good idea at all. Alexander was not the one, who would argue over something like this. So he just sat there and listened to her talks for awhile.

The clock hit 09:00 at night when Alexanders phone rang…

At that time Grace and Lincoln were in the office. John was with Alexander over to some work at the last floors. Andrea had finally listened to Lincoln and head home first.

Lincoln gestured Grace to keep the phone at silent mode, but Grace told him that its

Mrs Smiths call, they should inform her that her husband was off to some work.

”H…Hello? ” A sweet yet delicate voice approached Grace and she smiled

”Mrs Smith, I am Grace. Your Husbands Secretary. ”

”Hi, Miss Grace. ” She greeted with her delicate soft voice.

”Mr Smith is busy tonight. ” She informed her.

”O..Oh.., I, I see. ” Her voice almost broke down. Grace could hear the disappointment and the feeling of worry in her voice.

”Mrs Smith, are you okay? ” She still asked

Lincoln stiffened and approached Grace.

”Yes, I am alright. Dear, Its n.. nothing. Just ask my husband to e..eat eat his dinner. ” Grace could hear the concern now. It always amused people that how this girl can speak her emotions. ”I will keep that in my mind, Mrs Smith. Take care of yourself. ” Grace didn forget to greet her goodbye.

Alexander had a very tiring day. His muscles were sore from the all day meetings and greetings. Not enough there, He had still work to take care of and files to sign. Business dealings and arranging stuffs. Indeed, He was known correct as ”Working Robot Man ” although having a long day tired allot of people, but Alexander showed no signs of tiredness or laziness. He truly was an inspiration and role model for a lot of young man down there. At last, at the very end. He finished everything and piled up his little stuff and checked his phone. Upon checking, he got to know that his wife has called him several times and left some texts. He had left home since 08:00, She mustve been worried since then…

He sat in his car and stared down her texts.

”Hello, Husband. ”

”Did you have your lunch? ”

These texts were around 2 in the afternoon.

”Good Evening, Husband. ”

”Did you got some break? ”

The texts were around 4pm followed by two more texts just at around 9.

”Don starve yourself. ”

”Please, Have your dinner. ”

It was almost 12 in the night when Alexanders car parked in his garage. He strode towards his home and pushed open the door.

Dove was sitting on a sofa reading some text and waiting for her Husband. Almost after what it felt like decades the door to her house opened and here he was with his messy black hair, a little crumpled collar and sweat filled shirt with tie hugging low his toned chest. Briefcase in one hand and coat in the other. He was white shinning in the moon. After a long day still calm and composed without any slightest sign of tiredness. She stood up immediately and almost ran towards him. Her fresh hair swinging left to right freely in the air. Her delicate flawless skin showing her beauty. Almost no make up. Only a thin baby pink frock that came down to her thighs and a beautiful necklace. She had a pair of eyes that contained oceans in them. She was looking the most beautiful without even trying. She approached him and took his coat and case from him and followed him to their room. His scent was the only medicine to her burning nostrils. Burning from cruelty of the world.

She sniffed in to his scent and kept his things aside. While he got his shower. She heat his food as she knew her husband had nothing for his dinner. He still ignored her. Not even replying once to her texts or saying something. She prepared him his favourite and only tea. After some time, He climbed down the stairs and looked on to the food. She knew he originally had planned not to eat and starve. She hoped he would at least take a bite, but her hopes got down when she saw him taking a bottle of water and heading to his room. She can not let this happen, could she? She called him when he was midway…

”A..At… At least a .a .a cup of t..tea? ”
