The Badass Assistant

Chapter 7

Lisa

Do you see my watch? What did it say? 6:52 AM. For the first time, I arrived at the office before seven in the morning. *fist bump*

I don't care if Miss Kim is already there, I just have to give award to myself. 6:52 AM. Who will go to work at 6:52 AM if it's not a call center agent or security guards? ME!

When i came in to my desk, jennie's office was still unlit. I just dropped off the Starbucks I was carrying for my rude boss, i open my computer and checked the e-mail.

I was a bit organized when the wind changed. I don't intentionally tense my shoulders. I knew she was coming.

All right, I'll admit I still don't know how to deal with her after what happened to us yesterday. I'm not a complete dick. I know i was wrong to answered her (again), i got irritated (which is new to me because i am a cool person.) I told you that this woman is changing my behavior.

I heared her stop, maybe she saw me that i'm already in the office. I was really expecting her to come to me, to touch me and see if I was a real person and not a ghost but she kept walking. Not even saying good morning?

I took a deep breath. Go ahead. The earlier i do this, the earlier I can get out of her office and get back to my work. I took the paper cup of Starbucks (Grande Latte With Non Fat Milk) And clipboard full of paper, and went to her office.

She just got sat at her table. She wear a white blouse under the light blue jacket. Her hair is loose, no make up, even lipstick. The fresh morning look was like a punch to the gut.

She was so fucking beautiful.

And fuck, aren't we okay yet? I had no business mooning over her.

"Good morning ma'am," i said in a formal tone. I didn't smile also. I put down the Starbucks cup on her table. "Your first appointment is at 8:30AM. I sent your notes for the meeting to your email. I also need your signature on these paper." I get a stack of papers from the clipboard. I already attached it with post-it from nayeon's collection that are written "sign here" Jennie silently accepted it. "After your 8:30, your next meeting is at 10AM,A conference call with the offices in japan. I'll call you at 9:55AM to remind you. Is there anything else you need me to do?"

That was the only time I looked at her. If I slapped her, she wouldn't look so shocked. Why? Because I'm not totally incompetent? I'm not stupid, remember? This job is not difficult. I just wasn't really taught. This all Self taught.

She frowned. "Ah, no. Thank you." I just nod "Then i'll be outside." I turned around and left her office. When I returned to my desk, I then blew air.

Fuck, i got tired there, whew! Imagine how long did i memorize the spiel to make me sound like an assistant, Ha!

I put nayeon's clipboard back in the drawer and turned on the computer. Okay, there are new emails that need to be read, Organized and answered or needed to forward to jennie. Wait a minute, I'll work first.

At 12 noon, Jennie status in IM is still 'in a meeting'. I clicked his name and typed a message.
