Nothing Is As It Seems 8

PART 8

She walked out without even listening to what he was saying. She started to have a temper all because of working for him and now she needed anger management sessions. She arrived at the office building and made her way to the meeting hall to make sure it was prepared since their guests would be arriving anytime now. 7sain finally decided to show up.

Shaikha: sharaft!

7sain: feenii ergaad

Shaikha: I would slap you right now but we have a meeting to attend to

The guests have arrived and the company where in their best behavior to make sure everything is good. The meeting was smooth and surprisingly 7sain was on a role. His charm works for everyone except for shaikha. He would put no effort in what he is doing and everything turned out good for him. Shaikha watched him speak as if this morning never happened. The sponsors left the building and finally shaikha took a deep breath.

7sain: and that is how you do business

Shaikha: business my ass!

Those where the words that came out of 7sain’s dad before he retired. Shaikha would never forget them. Wa9aha 3ala elsharika and she would never let him down. That what was making her endure all the crap that 7sain pulls. She knew exactly how he could be and his dad knew that she was the right person to deal with him.
