The moment was just perfect, before even Shirley realised it she was already in his arms hugging him and he was hugging her right back, as if he has found something very precious that he had lost and searched for a long time. She became a bit embara.s.sed about how her heart was racing " Badump, Badump" it went synching with his heart and that she was hugging the same person whom she despised a few days ago. And she slowly loosened her grip from his back but he was still not ready to let her go. Shirley was thinking in her mind how to call him "" should I say Mr.Marshall will it be rude or call him Daniel huh.. too soon .. huh "" in a low voice with all her courage she said " Mr. Marshall ? "
Daniel realised he had hugged her too long and need to let her go. But his heart won"t co-operate ... He realised her grip loosening and his mind was saying ""no a little more"". He loosened his arms and stepped a a little back, there was an awkward silence. He then said "I am glad we met again" . Shirley saw him and couldn"t control so she broke into a loud laugh "pfft" and said " Oh my G.o.d you should see your expression. It"s hilarious .. can"t even come to make believe that Mr. Daniel Marshall The Business Man of the year can make such a face" and she continued laughing.
Daniel was so happy seeing her laughing but he wanted to make his point of view clear and wanted to she her troubled face , so he started walking towards her with a smirk and evil smiling look. Shirley realised she might have p.i.s.sed him off when she made fun of him.Her laughter stopped and she was walking backwards as he moved towards her she said in low ton " sorry! I was just..." Both of there heart"s were racing.She was cornered to the wall with no way to go. He pinned her to the wall and he came real close to her face ,aiming towards her lips. Both of them could feel each other"s breath , Shirley was stunned and suddenly forgot to breath. He came real close turned a bit and whispered in her ears "I like it when you laugh, your smiling face makes my day". She was sure her heart skipped a beat... And he withdrew back Shirley"s face was blushing red and her breathing was heavy and her heart was thumping crazy. He then looked at her with his ravishing smile and said " It"s late. You should go to bed." She awkwardly replied " Yes I should.. sleep now( louder than her usual voice). Then I will take my leave Mr. Marshall , Goodnight." she walked hastily towards the door.
She was leaving when he suddenly caught her hand and said " Daniel!" She was confused and strained her eyebrows "huh?" He continued " Please call me ,Daniel Miss Shaw." . Shirley relaxed , smirked and said " It"s Shirley ... Goodnight Daniel". He let go of her hand and responded "Goodnight Shirley". She then walked past him and opened the door and looked back at him and smiled with glistening eyes. The moment the door closed and she was out , he gasped and so did she behind the door. And they both smiled blissfully .
