My arrogagentle boss

I hear the sounds of birds chirping and rats squeaking in the ceiling, a very fresh air coming through the window and caressing my stressed body. Oh wait! I can't feel my pillow nor the softness of my mattress, with my eyes still closed I realized that I slept on the table cuz I stayed up all night applying for freelancing jobs online. Well don't mind me, it was something I had to do to survive. I sluggishly opened my eyes and looked at the wall

"Oh my God, I have an interview today, oops I'm almost late". I rushed into the bathroom, had my bath and brushed my teeth. I dressed up in my black suit and skirt that was given to me by my late dad as graduation gift. Wore the pendant my mom bought me. Looked in the mirror and smiled with a tear rolling down my cheek. "Mom, dad, look what you both made" I looked at the mirror and smiled happily trying to surpress my sorrows. "I promise to make y'all happy and proud wherever you are". My parents are late. I miss them both. I barged out of my apartment and rushed to the main road to board a cab because I was already running late. I arrived late and the interview was almost over. The interviewers overlooked my late coming because I appeared before them in a presentable manner. I spoke eloquently with my head held high, filled with confidence and pride. I finished my interview and went home praying and hoping to get this job. I stopped by the shopping mall to get some groceries and got hit by this guy. He looked very tall, with his dark hair, his nose sharp like a pencil, his v shaped chin and his skin shinning brightly like a morning sun. "Hey how dare you hit me, are you blind?" The man said. I was shocked, rather baffled because it can't be me he's talking arrogantly to. I laughed wickedly and ask "Mr I hope it's not me you're talking to" he turned around and stared at me for about 30seconds. "Who else am I talking to if not you?", I tried my best to control my anger but I just couldn't. He continued ranting and guess what..... I slapped him. Before he could say another word I slapped him again. "I'm not your sister who you can yell at neither am I your maid who you can trample on" his eyes widened and his mouth was slightly open looking shocked and speechless. I picked up my groceries bag and left angrily.

"I've never been slapped by anyone before". He immediately told his secretary to get details on the lady who just disrespected him right now.

Two days later, I woke up to the sound of my phone vibrating. To my surprised it was the company I applied for. I picked up the phone and....... "Hello is this riele Andrew?" I replied with a smile on my face. "Congratulations you have gotten a job as an intern in greatville writing and publishing company" I screamed my heart out happily and danced to a song in my head. It was the best day of my life. I rushed to a boutique and bought lot's of dresses preparing for my resume. I couldn't sleep all night and was eagerly waiting for Monday to come so I would resume my new job. Finally Monday was here and I woke up very early that morning. I took my bath and sat at the mirror admiring my dark, long and curly hair, my skin was looking whiter and glowing like a snow, with my slightly red cheek one would think I'm blushing. I wore my makeup and put on a dark nude lipstick as I've always did. I added eyelashes to my already long lashes and made sure I looked neat and punctual. I got dressed and wore a red heel and rushed to work.

I got to work with a very bright smile on my face, walking like a model with my head held high, my curves sliding right and left with my d cup chest. I was indeed every man's desire. My mentor showed the other interns and I around and took us to the executives office. We went to the hod's office, the chief editors and finally the CEO office. His office was as cold as ice and I heard he was nicknamed the devil's apprentice. I lowered my gaze and couldn't look at his face. I was already scared of this devil's apprentice. The moment I raised my head up to my surprise....... Oh my God!!! ohhhh my God!!! what have I done. The man I slapped at the mall turned out to be the Chief executive officer. I felt uneasy about this and luckily he arrogantly asked us to leave fully engrossed in his desktop. We all left quietly and it was then I realized that I was in trouble. I will need to keep a low profile to survive in this company.
