First day of new job

MY BOSS AND I.

He is cold but I'm humorous

Jacinta's Pov

I'm in this good good sleep and I don't want to wake up, but someone keeps pulling my blanket.

You might think that my bed is so comfortable such that I don't want to wake up but No.

There are bedbugs here but we are used to each other. They sting and hide, I find them and kill them.

Funny huh? Yes it is

That's our life and the mattress is almost finished too.

I keep pulling my blanket up but this person keeps pulling it down until it's taken off completely.

The morning breeze which is very chilly, hits through my skin and I can't hesitate to open my eyes.

My eyes come in direct contact with my little sister Jessica who is frowning and complaining.

"Sis it's almost 8 am. I'm going to be late for school again!" She complains but my eyelids are so heavy to open wide.

As I struggle to get out of bed, aunt Saira our guardian walks in.

"Unbelievable of you Jacie! You are still not prepared and you got a new job to catch up at Merkian group of Companies! If I were you, I would be by the office right now!" Says aunt Saira and it's just like her words have brushed off all the sleep in me.

If it were for my sister getting to school late, I wouldn't worry about that.

I would just simply lie to the teacher that she had a stomach ache since last night and had to get checked this morning.

But damn! My new job in a company? Not just any company, one of the biggest companies in the country! The Merkian! There is no way I'm missing this for anything.

"Aunt Saira, could you please drop Jessie at school for me? Please aunt! I need to rush. Pwease!" I beg to aunt Saira and give her the doggy eyes too with a little child's plea.

She agrees, yes!

"Don't forget to shut the door when you leave Jacie. Make sure to take a bath too!" Yells aunt Saira as she walks out of our small house with Jessie.

We live in a small house beside the beach and our bar is just a few strides away.

It is a two bedroom one, with one bathroom, a small kitchen area and a small living room.

It's just the three of us in here. I sleep with Jessie and aunt Saira in the next room.

Since she took us in, we learnt to adapt to such life of hardship.

We have many debts to settle currently but we will manage somehow. I got a new job anyway! Probably

The thoughts of debts reminds me of the incident that took out yesterday.

I promised to pay up for a broken side mirror of an imported car.

Me with my big heart!

But no worries now. I will get the job and pay up the debts in instalments.

The thoughts of the job won't leave my mind and I quickly head out to the bathroom.

Filling in the bucket and grabbing the soap to shower will take longer time for me.

I just wash my hands, feet, face and head out.

I grab a knee length, black, fitting skirt that aunt Saira gave me last night and put on with a white top.

My black dolly shoes are almost finished but I can manage with them until I get my first salary and I rush out to the bus stop.

It's already 7:50 but the bus is not yet here.

I cant wait any longer. I'm so excited about the job and I can't lose it.

Just then, I remember that I'm not experienced and that I'm a school drop out. My heart sinks.

Just then some posh car passes by and throws mud on my clean clothes!

Who the heck does that to me and just goes without an apology! Rich men with arrogant behaviours.

Luckily he was in a car. I would have strangled him!

Aaargh! Now what do I do? Should I go get changed or what?

What to do?

It's morning as usual and there is a meeting with a very important client at exactly 8 am.

I head out to the gym room and exercise for a while before taking a shower.

I put on my black suit matching with a black bow tie and black shoes with a golden watch that I bought yesterday.

Thinking of yesterday my blood boils.

That short ugly girl! She hasn't paid up for my side mirror.

I will surely find her!

Mom and dad are out on a business trip, it's just me and my bodyguards and my maids.

Life has always been like this since...i don't remember anymore. I don't care.

Breakfast is ready and it's just my favourite made by Celine my old maid.

She took care of me since my childhood and she know me better than my mom and dad.

I drive off to the garage to check on my Lamborghini veneno but it's not yet fixed.

It takes time to import another pair of side mirrors. This is a 2% loss for me.

It's a new car and this happens!

I don't like this bloody shit at all and that girl will pay for it!

I angrily get out of the place and head out for the meeting in my black Audi.

I like black by the way. It suits me alot.

Blue is my second favourite and followed by red and white.

"Don't stop for anything on the road. Drive to the Hotel where my client is waiting. I should arrive there in five minutes!" I command my driver since I hate being late for any thing that concerns money and work.

Afterall, time is money and it waits for no man.

Only if the poor people realise this, we won't have them in our society.

My dad has always told me that and that is should always work and work to bring more money.

The road ahead is abit muddy and slippery but I don't care. I have to reach to my client within five minutes!

The driver throws some mud to some girl on the road but I don't care.

She could have dodged for Godsake!

She'll probably go home and change into something else.

And I just landed my destination. I like how obedient my driver is.

I get in and sit to wait for my client.

Actually I'm the youngest and most successful business man in this country.

I want to join hands with the New Life television and that's what the meeting is about.

I'll head out to my office afterwards with the good news. I'm sure of getting this contract anyway!

I've been waiting for my father's life saver for a while now but she is nowhere to be found.

It's now 8: 30 and i asked her to be here by 8.

I'm restless on my chair and my secretary has just noticed it.

"Are you okay sir?" She asks

"It's the new girl. She is not here yet. I had talked to my cousin about her and he agreed to meet her by this time. He should be on his way but I don't know where this girl is. I can't even reach her on the phone" I reply with panic in my voice.

Actually the heir to the Merkian group of Companies is my cousin. His father and my father are brothers from the same father but different mothers.

Complicated family they have.

"Is that supposed to be the girl?" Asks my secretary who is pointing outside my office and I turn my attention towards that direction.

My heart almost popped out of its temple immediately my eyes landed on her.

"What's she wearing?" I ask, absolutely to no one in particular.

"She can't be the girl that you described yesterday sir" says my secretary but I know that my eyes ain't lying to me.

She looks funny in what she puts on but I still walk up to her.

Most of the workers have already started talking about her in loud whispers.

I bet she can hear them.
