Brent's new boss

Part 1: brent the starbucks worker

Brent smiled to himself as he cleaned the top of the table in the booth, having to lean forward to get the very end of the table. He hummed a tune to himself, he was minutes away from closing up for the day. He went back behind the counter and waited for the final customer of his shift, that is if he even got one.
He looked down at the counter but his head snapped up when he heard the door open, it was rare to see a man in a suit walk in past the lunchtime rush but not that uncommon. The man walked up to the counter and said his order, Brent nodded and grabbed the size cup he wanted and the marker pen.
"The names Shawn." Brent didnt even need to ask and it cause him to smile slightly as he scribble 'Shawn' on the side of the cup.

As he went about making Shawn's order he heard him lean against the counter, and clear his throat. "So how old are you?" Brent always felt a little awkward when he got asked questions by customers but he always answered them.
"I'm 22, I dont turn 23 for a while yet." He chuckled awkwardly and he heard Shawn chuckle with him, he looked over his shoulder to see the man in the suit smiling at him. Brent smiled back and continued working on his order till it was done and he brought the cup back over to him.
"I bet you dont get paid much here huh Brent?" Sometimes Brent forgot he had a name tag on and he chuckled as he pass the cup to Shawn and he shrugged. It is what it is when it came to earning money. "I only bring it up because my boss has been looking for a potential worker. Dedicated and hard working. Think you might be up for the job?"
Brent had been working at that starbucks shop for nearly three years having got the job the year he turned 19 and admittedly he did enjoy it when he first got it but now it seems to just be boring and he did want a change of pace. Shawn notice the look in his eyes and put a card that was pitch black with his name, a phone number and an address written in a gold font.
"Just think about it." Shawn wave slightly as he left the shop. Brent picked up the card and went to get changed and do one more check of the shop to make sure it was clean for the next day and lock up. He pulled the card out of his pocket and gave it a look over. Maybe he should give it a chance.
Shawn was watching Brent from his car parked against the side of the road, smiling to himself. He pressed his phone against his ear. "Yes sir, I think I may have found someone to work for us...yes sir. I understand sir. I'm on my way."
Shawn put his coffee cup in the cup holder in between the driver and passenger seat before starting his car and driving off. He smile to himself as he turn on the stereo, an obnoxious song playing through his car.
He had a feeling he would be seeing Brent the next day.
Part 2. The company building

The office building was bigger then Brent thought, it seemed to touch the sky and go further. He blinked a couple of times before stepping through the automated door. He walked up to the reception desk and asked for Shawn. He didnt phone in or anything but the receptionist said Shawn wasnt busy and she would give him a call to see if he could come see him. Brent had to sit in a waiting room.
There was no one else in the waiting room and the only sound he could he was the clock ticking, there was a TV in the room but it wasnt turned on at the time. Brent felt like he was waiting for ages for Shawn and when he walked in he couldn't help but smile. Shawn nodded at him and waved for him to follow.
They ended up in an elevator together and Shawn smiled at him. "I take it your here about the position?" Brent nodded which caused Shawn to smile wider, Brent didnt notice but instead of going up they were going down. Once the elevator opened Brent was led to what looked like a break room but everything seemed so expensive. There was a set of double doors leading to a different room which shawn knocked three times on before sitting in one of the leather chairs.
He poured himself a drink and lean against the back of the chair, he raise his glass slightly and nod at the other chair. Brent quickly sat down as shawn took a sip of his drink.

"The boss will be out in a second." Shawn put his drink down and Brent nodded looking around the room, it was much more nicer then his break room at starbucks. The double door opened and a man in a seriously nice suit stepped through. Shawn instantly stood and seemed to bow slightly, his eyes locked with his bosses.
"Come on through Brent. Shawn's told me a lot."
The mans voice was as smooth as silk and Brent entered his office, shawn followed and closed the door behind him. The boss sat in his chair behind a darkly painted desk. "So then." Shawn stood by his bosses side and brent gulped.
"Let's begin."
