Chapter 23

MY BOSS AND I
*He is cold but I'm humorous*

Jessie's Pov

I'm missing my sister alot. Aunt Saira is here with me and she treats me like her own daughter but I still miss having my sister around.

She is stubborn and funny though aunt Saira is the same, but I miss my sister's fun side.

Actually it's time for my favourite couple show from Rio hotel and I'm switching on our small television to watch it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, our last contestant couple, Mian...and Jacieeee" says the MC just as i sit down to watch.

Mian and Jacie?

Wait, it's my sister on tv!

Why is she wearing a mask?

It's her! I know her legs and body figure.

It's just her.

"Aunt come and see! It's Jessie and the rich man on t.v." I call out to aunt Saira who is making supper for both of us.

"What? Where are they?" She asks as she comes running to where I am.

"There, at the couple show!" I say and aunt Saira is looking at the t.v. with shock in her eyes.

"What are they doing there in masks? Are they a couple already? It hasn't been a week!" Says Aunt Saira.

"I'm sure Jacie forced the dull man to go there. You know how stubborn she can be" I say

"Yeah but if he agreed to go there, that's a good sign. I think he is starting to like her" says aunt Saira.

"That's a good sign for us too. You get it?" I ask in a smile.

"I get it baby" says miss Saira and we turn to look at each other.

"We are rich!" We both yell at the same time with our hands in the air clapping happily.

"Have you turned off the cooker? You can't miss today's show. Food can wait for later. Tommorrow is Saturday anyway" I say and rushes off to turn off the cooker.

Our eyes are now glued to the tv.

Jacinta's Pov

We are now sitted on stage and all eyes are here.

I'm nervous right now but I will be fine.

"Now, as we begin ladies and gentlemen, all the ladies shift to one side and the men shift to the other side. My attendant will pass through giving a 10 minutes questionnaire and a pen to each of you. The one for the ladies is different from the one with the men. All you have to do is to use 10 minutes to answer the questions and don't look at your partner. Just answer according to what you know, then the attendant will collect the papers after 10 minutes. That's what we are going to use for our show today" says the MC and we have moved to the different sides.

The attendant who took our names is moving around distributing the questionnaires as he smiles.

"All the best" he says as he gives each a paper.

I have just 10 minutes to answer this paper with 10 questions.

I don't know what I'm answering right now but I think I'm going to fail.

I'm just answering this according to my observation of men.

All these questions are just about what I should know in Damian.

But I don't know alot, just a few guesses.

What's this? How am I supposed to know the colour of the boxer he is putting on?

This Is way too much but okay let me just write what I think.

I'm going to fail and I know it.

What a big shame for me.

Okay, one million, I give up!

..................................................................................

Damian's Pov

The attendant is picking the papers back and I'm sure I've failed Jacie already.

She will be sad I know.

Acting like a couple is really hard.

I will just give one million to Jacie if we lose.

Or I can just pay them to make us win.

But that's cheating.

I hate cheating just like I hate losing.

What a shame.

"So, since you have all answered, we will begin the game. We are going to use the ladies questions to the men and their answers will determine whether the ladies are correct or not. The same will happen to the men's questions.Each question carries 5% marks. The ladies have 50% to fight for and the men have 50% too. If the couple knows each other well, they might attain the 100% marks. All the best. Let's take a quick 3 minutes break before we begin" says the MC and music is played to make us relax.

The ladies are coming back to their positions and Jacinta is beside me again.

I don't even want to look at her since I know I failed her already.

Should I apologise before the questions begin?

She is not even looking at me.

She looks so nervous.

Stella's Pov

I'm at the kitchen sitting on the counter as I have some ice cream.

The kitchen tv is on and a couple's show is going on.

I miss Damian alot.

It's been two days since I last set my eyes on him.

I really miss him.

The man on t.v. looks like him but he is in a mask.

Anyway, Damian would never go to such a place, infact with who?

I'm the only girl he goes out with.

He is such a loner but I don't mind.

As long as he goes out with me whenever I want.

I think I'm going to tell his parents.

Maybe he is in danger.

His phone has been off for two days and he is not at home.

I will call his parents later, this couple show looks interesting.

Let me watch it.

..................................................................................

Jacinta's Pov

The break is over and now the MC wants to begin.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back! I have two buttons infront of me. A red one and a green one. For every answer that the man gives, I will press one button.

If the answer is correct to the one that the lady answered in the questionnaire, I will press the green button and the lady will earn 5%. If the answer is different from what the lady wrote, I press the red button and the lady earns a 0%. Are you ready?" Asks the MC as soon as he finishes explaining and my heart is racing stupidly.

The people who are just spectators are all cheering and waiting patiently for the game to begin.

"The first question to all the men, and the first man will answer, What do you like, about your woman?" Asks the Mc and my answer was stupid.

I'm sure Damian does not like anything about me.

I'm doomed!
