I slipped into the shower. It was going to be a long day at work. My boss told me I was going to receive an intern. Normally that would be a good thing, but it seemed that no one else wanted this one in particular. Why did no one else want them? It didn't really matter to me because I needed someone to help with all this work I had lately. IT WAS SO HARD BEING THE ONLY WOMAN IN MY LAW FIRM. I secretly hoped that it was a woman. This place could really use some estrogen.I laughed at the thought as I quickly got out of the shower.
I did my hair the same way I did it everyday. I combed it back into a tight professional bun. On one occasion I tried to wear my hair down, but I was told "It's a distraction and ought to be kept up so that others could focus on their work." Unbelievable. I was forced to wear bland pants suits everyday even though on the inside I was a very stylish person. Though Grupe and Grupe was rough at times I loved my job with all my heart. Sometimes I even liked being the only woman.But today... today of all days was going to be a difficult one.
I stepped into the elevator smelling the aroma of all the men who had been there before me. I laughed out loud thinking of all the women who would kill to be in my position, but none of the men here were worth a second glance. They all either had wives and children or were just horn dogs who only thought of me as a peace of meat. I had told them all a million times that I was saving myself for marriage. God would bless me for treasuring one of the most precious gifts he had ever given us.
"Ughh" I accidentally said aloud.The top floor sometimes seemed to be forever away. Level 32 .. finally. I breathed a sense of relief. I secretly had a fear of elevators.
As I exited the elevator one of the most beautiful men I had ever seen greeted me. "Hi, nice to meet you. I am Adrian Turner your new intern." he said too smoothly, like he had rehearsed it a thousand times.
"Hi, I am Sarah Stevens."
"Well Mrs.Stevens is there anything I can do for you?"
I blushed. He could do a lot for me. No, I didn't mean that. I shouldn't be lusting like this we had just met. My eyes traced over his toned body beneath his suit. I could see everything through it clear as day. Man, I needed to get away from him, quickly.
"Yes, of course. Can you get me some coffee?" I said quickly.
"Well, if you really need it, but I did not know that I had applied for a secretarial position. I had the impression that I would be side by side with you.Helping you with your cases." he said sadly.
Side by side with me? YES!YES! NO! NO! Sarah focus.
"Umm, I suppose you are right. I'm sorry I am new to this having an intern thing.
"Its fine. Just put me in wherever you need help,but for you I will go get that coffee just this time." he said with a smile.
Lord, what is this? Are you trying to test me? I can't take this. I really can't.
