Chrissy
"What goes on in that pretty mind of yours?" He questions and for a minute or two,my thoughts are scattered everywhere.What does he mean by that? Why does he want to know? Does he even care about what I think?
I recompose myself before answering, "None of your business." I answered slipping beneath his cage and started picking up the paper napkins and some documents that coffee spilled unto.His eyes followed my movements as he went to his bottle of alcohol.
"If you'll excuse me,your shirt will be here in 15.I'll get these retyped or something,if you need me am a call away plus am bringing in a new cup of coffee so don't drink that because it's a bad for your health,Mr Brooke." I said and he scoffed while I closed the door to his office.
Shouldn't he have a mini closet for emergencies like this but he sure has an alcoholic shelf,what a Man of discipline?
I made few calls to a boutique and the shirt will arrive soon,sent someone to give him a new cup of coffee and clean the mess in his office,forwarded some mails to him until my phone rang.
"Hey Alex,what's up?" I answered.
"Am good and you? Called to check up on you since Nathan has been needing all the help around the house." Alex said.
"That's very thoughtful of you hun,am sorry we couldn't make it last Sunday too,I've been so busy lately and am fine,Mel too." I twirled in my chair.
"Don't worry,you can drop by anytime after all he's literally under house arrest and am his everything while Char's working and he wouldn't hear of hiring someone,very adamant and picky in his dependable state." She chuckled and I understood her,Nathan is a hot head and most times Charlie and him butt heads but my bestie always ended up grovelling.
"I know,so how's your buddy doing?" I smiled.
"Wipe off that grin Chrissy plus we ended things few days back.The friends with benefit wasn't working out so we ended it.How about you?"
"Me? I don't have a guy_ hold on a sec or can we talk later,am busy.I got a job yaay!" I said,exchanging byes and ended the call as the delivery guy came out of the elevator.I collected the package and briefly knocked on the door before entering.
I kept the package and excused myself,I sat down again releasing a sigh before his call came in again, "In my office." He said before I could respond,the line went dead.
Why is he such a pain with no reason? I wondered walking in his office.
"Have a seat."
I sat down and complimented his new shirt but he gave me a glare,fine no comments then.
"Since you delayed today's meeting by 10 minutes,am sending you instead,report back to me." He said sitting on his office couch as he leaned back and closed his eyes.
"But_" I start in protest.
"Not a word again,you're not my PA and partial secretary for fancy.Now get your behind off my chair and into that room." He dismissed me without a glance only his stony voice did it.
"Sure." I left his office,collected a notepad and rode the elevator in silence as a turmoil raked me.
I question if this attitude of his is normal,one minute he's cool the next a complete jerk.What has become of his secretary,just vanished and handed everything to me,unbelievable.And as he said,I took my behind to the conference room.
