Alissa woke up with the sound of her cell phone ringing. She looked at her wall clock and saw the time, it was 8:30 am.
Who can call me at this time?
She thought to herself. She picked up her cell phone and answered it.
Alissa: Hello?
Unknown Person: Is this Alissa Lawrence?
Alissa: Umm...Yes..
Unknown Person: I am speaking from William Enterprises. I wanted to inform you that you got the job and you can start tomorrow. You have to be here at 10:00 am sharp. I hope I made myself clear"
Alissa: Oh my god. Thank you. And yes I will reach at 10:00 am sharp. Thank you.
Unknown Person: Have a nice day ma'am.
And with that, the call came to an end. She was staring at her cell phone with a shocked look. She was holding the cell phone very tightly. She looked at Jade. She was sleeping.
"WAKE UP JADE!!!" She shouted with excitement.
"JESUS SAVE US....WHAT HAPPENED?" Jade woke up and said.
Alissa laughed and gave her a bone-crushing hug.
"What is so special today?" Jade asked. Curious to know what the matter was. Cause Alissa hardly ever get so excited. She must have got this much happy only when she got her first salary. That also she spent on her sister. Almost.
She started to show her biggest smile and said "I got the job" She said it so quickly that it took Jade a moment or few to realise what she said. Her lips got into an 'O' shape and she started to squeal. She jumped on Alissa and said
"I am so happy for you sister"
"Listen, we are going shopping. Also, I will buy some new clothes for myself, so I could always look presentable at work"
Jade nodded. First, Alissa took a shower and then Jade. They ate their breakfast and went shopping. As they lived in New York it was kind of hard for them to keep up with other people's mentality and their higher standards.
New york city, Rochester, the place where they live is a nice city. There are good malls even where you could buy good stuff and New York is also good in fashion. It is a benefit though for them it is hard sometimes to afford expensive things.
They both entered 'Village Gate Square'
It is a nice mall, although a little expensive but when will the savings help. Right?
They went to different shops but some were not of their type and some were too expensive. They entered in the other one. There were clothes which she could afford. Alissa and Jade were eying every dress. Finally, Alissa started to get her types of dresses which she needed.She tried some dresses and finally figured out which are the ones that she wanted. She bought them and was elated. They both went into a restaurant and ordered their food. They talked about some stuff. All the girly stuff though.
"Hey, are you excited about your new job?" Jade asked.
"Of course I am...Why wouldn't I? It can be a turning point of my life after all" Alissa said. It really can be a turning point in her life. Jade's eyes suddenly got frozen in one direction. She was just looking at someone.
Alissa clapped her hands in front of her and said "Whom are you looking at?" Jade just smirked and said "Look at that boy behind you" Alissa turned her face around and saw that there was a man in a suit and tie and as she looked at his face her eyes almost popped out. Eric.
He suddenly makes eye contact with them.
Is he following me everywhere?
Alissa thought. He started to walk towards them. "I guess you know him?" Jade asked.
"My boss"
Jade got up and said "I have to go to the loo" Jade said and quickly left.
Alissa turned around and he stood right behind her. Alissa swallowed hard. She let out a nervous laugh and said "Hello sir"
Eric sat in the chair next to her and said "Are you following me or what?" There was a brief silence. Alissa stared at him looking at his face. His blue eyes. His pink lips. His perfectly shaped nose. His hair nicely done, slit back.
"Are you kinda obsessed with checking me out every time or something?" Eric said sarcastically.
"Ah....um...no...and....I-I am not following you. Uh... Thank you for...um..the job" Alissa was stuttering and was finding it hard to form a sentence all of a sudden. It was a habit of her, when she stutter means she is nervous. She also has a little bit of anxiety problem. Although, she never told this to anyone. But, yeah.
"No need to say thank you. I just thought to bless someone by making their lives less difficult" He said rudely.
Ouch!!!!
Alissa was kinda hurt by his words. He didn't favour them by giving them this job. He smirked and got up from his chair and left. Jade came back and said, "So what did he talked to you about?" Jade was curious to know but maybe Alissa wanted to kill that curiousness so she said "Just some stuff which you will not understand. So eat your food"
Jade pouted but thought to let it go. Alissa thought about what her first day of office would be like. How will she handle her arrogant, rude and smart boss?
Alissa woke up at 7:30. She stretched her arms in the air and let out a loud yawn. She clumsily got up from her bed and went to her bathroom. She brushed her teeth and took a shower. She wrapped the towel around her and came out of her bathroom. She opened her closet and started to decide what she wants to wear.Finally, she chose a black pencil skirt and a red top. She applied a little bit of make-up and slightly curled her hair. She wore black heels, so she was looking quite taller. She saw Jadesleeping. She woke her up as she is getting taught at home. Cause, children bullied her in school so she is not much confident. Alissa told her so many times to ignore them but she is scared.Jade got up and said "Good morning"Alissa smiled and kissed her forehead.She cooked breakfast and then she looked at the time. 9:00"I better leave now" Alissa said.Jade smiled and s
Eric was sitting on his chair doing work on his laptop. But, it was getting impossible to concentrate on his work cause his mind was in some other place and that was Alissa. He was still thinking about what happened yesterday.'She really thought I did not hear the sound of her skirt ripping' he thought to himself. A chuckle left his mouth. He stood up from his chair and went into his room, the one which is in his cabin.He entered his room. There was a vase on the table and Eric bumped on that table and that vase fell on the floor, shattering on the floor."Dammit" He cursed.Suddenly the door of his room flies open.Who called her here???****It was the second day of Alissa working here. She needed Eric's signature on one of the files so she got up from her chair and took that file to his cabin. She knocke
He woke up as the bright sunlight hit his face. He groaned and got up from the bed. He scratched his head, and rubbed his hands on his face."Another busy day" He said to himself.He went to the bathroom and took a shower. He came out of the bathroom and quickly wear his outfit.He picked up his mobile and started to scrawl down through contacts."Alissa, Shit I forget to get her number" He cursed.He went downstairs. His mother was in the kitchen, cooking. "Good morning Hun" She said."Good morning mom" He replied. He sat at the dining table and started to eat his breakfast."Maybe Mr Patricks won't be able to make it in this month. He is going to Spain, so it will take time to come here. He is going for important business work" Josephine said.He sighed in relief. "Thank god" He mumbled.Josephine looked at him with an a
Eric was in his cabin, concentrating on his work that he heard a knock on his door."Come in" He said in his raspy voice.He saw Alissa, walking inside of his cabin, holding a file. The same file he gave to her when she lost it. She was looking nervous and fragile. Eric never saw a girl, who never tried to make a move on him. As he is used to it cause his ex-assistant used to do that all the time.She kept the file on his table and in a shaky voice she said "Sir, you have to sign here"Eric looked at her, with a raised eyebrow and took his pen and signed the file. Alissa closed the file and hold it very tight. She wanted to say something but couldn't form a sentence because of nervousness."Want to say something?" Eric asked and she nodded."Sir, you have a meeting tomorrow with Mr Jhon Smith, timings are 1:30 to 3:30" She said, tried to sound confident and maybe succeed a bit.Eric nodded and
Alissa was sitting in front of her computer. Trying to finish her work as fast as possible. These days, Eric was giving lots of work not to only Alissa but to everyone. Alissa was quickly moving her fingers on the keyboard. That she heard a knock on the door."Come in" She said and saw Josh entering the cabin. She was confused as he is the first person who ever came into her cabin. Cause no one ever did. He was smiling at her, showing his dimple which is only visible on his one cheek.He came towards her and took a seat which was in front of her table. Alissa noticed his every move. He cleared his throat and Alissa came back to reality."Um..Hi..How may I help you?" She said politely.He chuckled and said "No, I just came here to tell you that Eric fired our 'Miss flirt', so congratulations" He said.Alissa looked at him with a confused look."Who is 'Miss flirt'?" She ask
Alissa was in front of her laptop. Fortunately, as she saw Eric she made her way towards washroom and to her thinking he didn't even noticed her talking to Josh. When she came back, she carefully looked everywhere and saw that Eric was not present there. She went back to Josh and apologized for running away like that. It was also embarrassing for her because she just ran away from there towards the washroom. Josh probably must have thought that she can't control her loo.She suddenly got an email from Eric to come to his cabin. She was terrified now. She was just hoping that he won't physically abuse her. Although, he never hurt any girl, neither he ever will. But she is just so nervous that she is imagining all the worst consequences that could occur. She nervously and slowly made her way towards the door of Eric.She knocked on the door and the door flew open. She saw Eric standing there and looking at her like throwing daggers from his eyes. She looked a
EricI couldn't sleep at night because all I could think about is Alissa. She is a different girl. She always try to sound confident but fail, which is quite funny. She is always busy in her work. She never try to drool on me or try to make a move. I always laugh silently when I remember her interview. I always recall her lines."I'm not a sassy little diva" A chuckle escape my lips.I never had this feeling before, it is something different. I always wanted to know about her. I really lost my patience when we bumped in that cafe. I am upset that she was in a dark alley with.....Oh god!!!I hardly believe it though. But when I heard this, I was beyond angry. I felt possessive towards her. All of a sudden. I know that she worked in a restaurant. Her boss has spread this news about her. But when I searched for more information, it only came out that she was being m
Alissa woke up as her alarm started to ring. She went to her bathroom and did all the necessary stuff. She came out and woke her sister up. Jade refused to wake up at first but finally gave in. Alissa wore a blue top and black skirt, net on the borders. She made a high ponytail and wore her black heels. She went downstairs, Jade had already been dressed up and is at the dining table. Alissa made pasta for them and served it on the two plates."How is your office going?" Jade asked.Alissa already has decided not to tell this to anyone about what happened between her and her boss. So she quickly replied."It is good"Jade smiled and asked, "Do you get lots of work?""No. Sufficient for a day" Alissa said.Jade nodded and continued eating her pasta."How is your studying going on? Are you understanding everything?" Alissa asked.Jade smiled
