His eyebrows shoot up in curiosity. “Okay…did you get the job or not?”
“Yes, I got the job!” I exclaim, unable to hide my excitement any longer. “I start next week!”
Ethan’s smile widens, genuine happiness radiating from him. “That’s amazing, Jessy! I’m so happy for you.”
I nod eagerly, feeling a surge of gratitude towards him. “Thank you, Ethan. And I wanted to say thank you for recommending me for the position. I really appreciate it.”
His expression softens, and he reaches across the desk to take my hand in his. “Of course. I knew you’d be perfect for the job. I’m glad you listened and went for the interview.”
I squeeze his hand gratefully, feeling a rush of warmth at his words. “I can’t wait to start this new chapter,” I say, excitement bubbling inside me.
“Me too,” he agrees, his gaze locking with mine.
“I know you’ve always wanted this, and I’m glad that you got it,” he says softly, his thumb gently caressing the back of my hand. “I love you, Jessy.”
“I love you too, Ethan,” I reply, feeling a surge of happiness as I lean in to kiss him.
“Are you very busy? Do you think you can spare your girlfriend a bit of your time and go for lunch with me?”
“I’m sorry, baby, I can’t do lunch right now. I have a meeting in five minutes.”
I can’t help but feel a twinge of disappointment. It’s not his fault, of course, but I was looking forward to spending some time with him.
“That’s okay, Ethan,” I reply.
“Hey, don’t be sad,” he brings his fingers under my chin, raising my face to his. “How about we have a celebratory dinner? I will make a reservation.”
“That sounds wonderful, Ethan. I’d love that,” I say, unable to hide the excitement in my voice.
His smile brightens at my response, and I can’t help but smile back at him. He leans in, taking my lips within his, and gives me a gentle but searing kiss.
And when his assistant comes in to tell him that it is time for his meeting, he waves her off, not bothering to tear his lips away from mine.
“If we don’t stop now, you are going to be late for your meeting,” I murmur against his lips.
He groans as he reluctantly pulls away. “Dinner tonight. Wear something sexy,” he says with a wink.
“You bet.”
As he rushes off to his meeting, I can’t help but feel grateful for his thoughtfulness and the effort he puts into making our time together special.
Tonight’s dinner date is something to look forward to, and I can’t wait to celebrate with him.
As I walk out of Ethan’s office, still buzzing with excitement from our conversation, I’m pleasantly surprised to run into Vivian at the reception desk. It’s been a while since we’ve had a chance to catch up, and I find myself genuinely glad to see her.
“Hey, Jessy! Oh my gosh, it’s been ages!” Vivian exclaims, her face lighting up with a smile as she pulls me into a warm hug.
“Vivian, it’s so good to see you!” I reply, returning the hug with equal enthusiasm. “How have you been?
We step back from each other, and I can’t help but notice the genuine warmth in Vivian’s eyes as she looks at me. Moments like these remind me how much I’ve missed our conversations and camaraderie.
“I’ve been good. I’m just keeping busy with work and life. You know how busy it gets around here,” Vivian replies, her smile still bright. “But enough about me; what about you? What’s new in your world?”
A rush of excitement floods through me as I realize I have some wonderful news to share with Vivian. “Actually, I have some exciting news! I just got a new job in advertising,” I say, unable to keep the grin off my face.
Vivian’s eyes widen in surprise, her excitement matching my own. “No way, Jessy, that’s amazing! Congratulations!” she exclaims, reaching out to squeeze my hand.
“Thank you so much, Vivian!” I reply, feeling a sense of pride and accomplishment swell within me. “I’m really excited about this opportunity.”
