"I quit." She says bluntly & I blink, in shock.
"What."
She frowns heavily, packing up her stuff into a neat storage box. "You heard me. I quit. You don't take my scheduling seriously enough. Your parents only want you to go to a few events a year, & yet you still seem too 'busy' to go to some of them."
I step back, a bit shocked. "Hey, that was one time!" She glares at me, arms crossed. "Ok, what can I do? You know how hard it was to find a good secretary! The background checks alone eliminate half the candidates, you know that..."
She stalks away, box in tow. "Well, you can deal with that. Because I'm done with your shenanigans."
. . .
I stare at my bedroom walls. Fuck. What am I gonna do... I can't tell Mom & Dad I lost another secretary... Maybe if I start posting ads about 1 though they'll at least give me credit for that, thinking I'm responsible enough for them or something... I just hope I can find someone a little more understanding of my... unique schedule this time...
Sorry this chapter is so short, got another POV change, so, it's necessary...
