I took the pen he was writing with from his hands and forced him too look up at me. He's eyes automatically gravitating to my revealing chest. Perv! I leaned down about to take his lips in mine when suddenly his office doors burst open, and I jacked back. An older lady with similar gray eyes as his, was staring at us with apologetic eyes. "Oh my world," she said her voice soft yet confident, "I'm deeply sorry, did I interrupt something?" She apologized but instead of leaving she stepped further into the room. "Oh Christopher, this must be the gorgeous girl you told me about." She said now standing on the other side of the table. "My she's so beautiful" she gushes reaching to touch each inch of my face like I was some art piece. What the heck? "What's your name honey." She said finally addressing me. I was about to open my mouth to clarify whatever it is, whoever this woman was, was thinking, but Chris beats me to it. "Yes mom,". He spoke, "this is Rachel, my girlfriend." I whip my head to look at him getting my self whiplashed, but he just squeeze my thighs and gave me a daring look to keep shut. "Oh what a beautiful name, for a beautiful girl." She gushed again. "I must leave you two now to finish what you were up to," she snickers. "Darling you must come to visit soon, okay?" She said and rushed back out not waiting for a reply. What in Turkey just happened?!
"Rachel, I need you up here, now!" Huh my God, someone just kill me already.
I rush up the stairs since the elevators in the office were not working today, which was really frustrating! My manager Drew was on my neck today. We had a bid deal coming up and the CEO was having every manager of every department on their toes and me being the assistant to mine in the sales and marketing department gets roped in too.
"I'm here" I announced stepping into Drew's office.
"Okay Rachel, those files over there I want them delivered to the accounting department for funds accrediting, and these," he said holding up a pile of paper in front of me, "submitted to Mr. Stan's secretary." He said and I grabbed the files from him.
"Alright." I responded to his instructions.
"And a cup of coffee on your way back, would you? Thank you." He said and continued his work.
"Sure." I stepped out of his office and went on to carry out his orders. Mr. Olsen, our new CEO's office on the freaking first floor on a 12 floors building, and I had to take the freaking stairs to them.

It was finally lunch break, thank goodness.
I was too tired to go out for lunch today and Drew even told me to stay close for the rest of the day, so I was stuck with the food they had at the office.
I took some chicken sandwiches, some wings and some chicken nuggets. Yes, I love chicken meat like that. I went back to my office to continue to work while I had lunch.
We had a new, CEO Mr. Stan Olsen, the former CEO Mr. Jacob Olsen, retired a week ago and handed the business down to his son and so a few changes and adjustments were being required by the new boss and couple with the new ideas he's been introducing and this big project coming up, I don't even know what it was yet, was getting everyone to work on their very best, cus no one wanted to be in the bad lights with the new boss, since we aren't even really familiar with how he runs his company quite well yet.
"Rachel!!!" Drew literally screamed my name from his office. Oh mother! I threw my head back and squeezed my face like I wanted cry. This is going to be one heck of a week!

Huh it's been one hell of a long day! I breathed out and dropped on my soft queen sized bed finally home and ready to go off the day. But I was still in my office clothes so I decided to take them off. Today wasn't even Friday at least, would have made thing one heck better, I could sleep till the next day. But I guess you can't always have the good things.
I take off my burgundy blazer and unbuttoned my inner nude shirt, and was left in my white lace bra.
Think I'll take a shower.
I was in the shower when I had my phone dinging from a text coming in, huh no disturbance this night, please.
I came out a few minutes later to see my phone ringing now. I checked the caller ID and it was my girl, Barbie. I had called her earlier today when I got a few minutes break to rant about my bad day.
"Hey Bie," I spoke into the phone after answering.
"Girllll, you gotta meet me up at my place, asap." She screamed into my phone.
"Wha-, why are you shouting?" I asked her, "and why? What do you need?"
She scoffes "No, I don't need anything fool, we're going to the club!" She said excited.
Where did I find this girl? I inwardly face palmed.
"Barbie I told you I was stressed today I can't go clubbing you know that. I just want to have a good sleep and not wake up till I need to." I told her as calm as I possibly could.
"Huh you're no fun, come on, I know you had a rough day that's why we need to go to the club," she said, "you know so you can get rid of all that bad energy and drink your night away." She said and I could picture her shrug after her words.
"So, Drew can fire me the next morning for being late? Maybe the weekend Bie, I really just want some sleep, and definitely the last thing I need, is a hungover." I explained, hoping she'll leave me now.
"Huhhh, fine but only cus your manager is cute, I need you to keep working there so I can get to see him once in a while." She chuckled at the last part and I just shook my head at her.
Must be a good night for me cus Barbie always gets her way.
"Thanks boo, now good night." I said.
"Yeah, you get your beauty sleep and I'll be at club Holard trying to catch one fine man tonight." She said and I laughed.
I chucked. "Good for you, good night." I said and ended the call.
I sighed happy to have gotten out of that and finally flopped on my bed not bothering to put any dumb night wear on. Sleeping in naked tonight baby. I thought and dozed off instantly.
