Unlikely Love: chapter 1

@}-)--- ***** @}-)---
Paperwork, Paperwork, Paperwork. That was all that she saw during her work days. She sighed and reclined in her desk chair. Being the Vice President of a multi-national company had its downside. She glanced over at the small clock on her cluttered desk. '5:53, only seven minutes left until the work day is over.' she thought. She decided to get as much work done as possible, so she didn't pile more on herself the next day. She got through about five documents, a few of them asking about expansion, others about sales and where they were to be shipped. The small computer chip company her grandfather started, had turned into a multi-billion dollar company when her father took over, after the tragic passing of her dear grandfather when she was only ten.
She pulled herself out of the chair and but the remaining documents in her briefcase. She walked out of her office door, said farewell to her secretary, and was on her way. In a few minutes, she had made her way to the parking garage for the employes of the company, and jumped into her silver convertable. She released her black hair from its confinement in the tight bun she had been wearing. She combed her fingers through her mid-back length hair and put her key in the ignition. She turned the key, and but the car into drive after backing out of her parking space.
The top of her convertable was down, letting the cool autumn air pass through her hair. She, Son Pan, had just become the Vice President of Son inc. in the past three months. After her grandfather died, she had her goals set on being able to take over the company some day. She had taken the necessary classes in high school, and had gone to a buisness school, where she tied someone for the valedictorian. That someone, was Briefs Trunks. They had attended the same private schools throughout their lives and had been compeating with each other since they had first met. However hard they tried, one could never out beat the other. This only annoyed them further. But, to her relief, Pan had not seen Trunks since she their college graduation three years ago. She and Trunks never got along very well, and seeing as how their parents were competators didn't help the situation very much.
Pan stopped her car when she reached a fourty story apartment building. She found her parking spot, and went inside. The elegant building sparkled with crystal and dim lights as she passed by the doorman. She walked down the large hallway in her grey buisness suit, and high heel shoes, until she reached the elevator. She got out a key, and put it in the keyhole next to the elevator and turned it slightly. The elevator doors opened, and Pan stepped into the beautifully decorated elevator. Pan grabbed her key, and put it in the slot for the top floor and turned it. Pan felt the elevator decend upwards and she leaned against the padded leather siding of the elevator's interior. When the elevator stopped and the doors opened, she grabbed her key, and went inside. She now stood in expertly decorated fourty story penthouse. She put her suit jacket on a coat rack next to the elevator, and locked the elevator, so no one could access her penthouse. She walked over to her beige sofa, kicked off her heels and layed down on it.
After relaxing on the sofa for a while, Pan got up, put her briefcase on the glass coffeetable in front of her sofa, and walked into the kitchen. The kitchen floor had large, black tiles that matched the countertops. Pan walked to her refrigerator and opened it. She looked over the variety of food that it held, and decided to make sushi. She pulled out the raw fish and seaweed wraps. Then she pulled the spices out of the oak cabinets and went to work. After preparing the sushi, she got out a pair of chopsticks and grabbed her plate. She walked over to her phone and answering machine and replayed her messages, there were three of them. The first one was her mother, yelling at her for working too hard, the second, a new friend that she had met in a clothing store. 'What was her name again? Oh yeah, Bra .... I don't think she ever told me her last name.' And the last message almost made her drop her plate of sushi on the floor. It was her father asking her to attend a buisness dinner with him. A buisness dinner with the executives of Briefs Inc. 'That means I would have dinner with Trunks, after all of this time,' she thought, 'this is going to be interesting.'
She finished the plate of sushi, and went over to the sofa to finish the paperwork she had brought home with her. She sat down, working on the remaining documents. She turned on her stereo, and listened to the works of many famous composers while she worked. At around eight o'clock, she finished and called her father about the dinner.
"Hello, Son Gohan speaking," came the answer on the other line.
"Otousan, it's me, Pan. I called to ask for the details on this buisness dinner."
"Oh yes, the dinner is tomorrow at seven o'clock at the new french resteraunt near the outskirts of the city." Pan was writing all of this down.
"What is the dress code for the resteraunt?" She asked.
"Formal, but I am sure buisness suits are just fine," Gohan answered.
"Why are we having a buisness dinner with our largest competator?" Pan asked.
Gohan was silent for a while, but then said, "We are going to discuss a merger." Pan's eyes shot wide open.
"Why would we want to merge with our major competator?" she asked perplexed.
"A merger would increase both company's profit. By merging, we could use the best of both companies and make better product to sell." Gohan explained.
Pan nodded. "I understand, well, I'll see you tomorrow at the office Otousan, Ja Ne." And with that, they hung up. Pan decided to go to sleep early, and headed for her bedroom. Her bedroom was huge. It has a king-sized bed with a fluffy white comforter and puffy white pillows, and the room had a large walk in closet, that was filled with buisness suits, formal dresses (for buisness dances), casual clothing, and shoes to match every outfit. She changed out of her buisness suit, into a long-sleeved, navy blue, silk pajama top, and a matching pair of silk pajama pants. She put her hair into a braid, got into bed, and set her alarm clock. She layed on her back, thinking about the advantages, and disadvantages of this merger. Slowly, her thoughts faded and she fell into a blissful sleep.
