" Well, I just hope you have a better reason for why you're behaving like a thief, or rather should I say you're about to meet a lover" Faisal all dressed up in his work clothes folded his arm and waited for her answer

Kalthum gasped then turned around to come face to face with him" A thief? A lover? "

" yes a thief or a lover," he told her challengingly

She swallowed quietly " Sir- I ju_st

" you just what? Just say it already and stop wasting our time "

His attitude towards her was beginning to annoy and irritate her at the same time " I just came to get water and chips"

" oh wow," he said pretending to be amused " never knew you were a glutton. I can't imagine how you'll finish those chips just tonight. " he pointed at the four packets of potato chips in her hand.

" I'm not a glutton sir " she gritted out

" oh really?! Then what are you? "

" if it bothers you that I took four potato chips then I guess I should keep it back. I'm so sorry for taking it in the first place " she said and went to return it

" Stop! "

She faced him coyly " what? I thought you said I should return it "

" I never said so miss Kalthum."

"but you called me a glutton which simply means you don't appreciate me taking anything from your extravagant kitchen. I hate it when I'm being insulted, sir"

" Are you talking to me like that? " he frowned and took a step forward

Kalthum saw the anger in his eyes "N-o sir I was only trying to defend myself " She took a step backwards

" Defending yourself from what? From me? " he raised a brow " Tell me aren't you a glutton? You have four packets of potato chips in your hand and you're trying to act innocent? Miss Kalthum need I remind you that you're here to work not to glutton around like a thief or rather stop acting like a whore who is here to see a lover_"

She gasped loudly and did the most unthinkable. Kalthum slapped him right on the face

Faisal stood speechless with eyes wide in shock "Did you just slap me?"

Kalthum realized her mistake" I-I-I am so sorry sir. I wasn't thinking I just-i just _" she couldn't think of the best reply so she ran out of the kitchen leaving her boss in bewilderment.

She didn't stop running not until she entered her room looking so disrupted almost scaring Basma who was making use of her phone.

" I'm dead. I'm dead" she chanted to herself.

Basma quickly got down from bed "What happened to you Kalthum? Why did you race inside like that? Is something wrong? "

" I'm so sorry Basma. I did something terrible and I know it's going to end our job. Please forgive me " She broke down

Basma's heart skipped a beat "What did you do?" almost raising her voice.

" I might have slapped sir Faisal," she said guiltily

" YOU DID WHAT!! "

" I know I was wrong. Please don't hate me right now "

" Did you just know what you just did? Kalthum how could you do that ?"
