I Love Hating You

Chapter 5-Moving

I walked into the door of work and just had loaded all of my old apartment decor to be driven to my new apartment. I had stayed up all night packing all my shit to be sent this morning. It was cool because they had said that they would put the boxes in the rooms they are labeled for and usually moving companies just dump your stuff and leave.

I got in the elevator and pressed the button and it slowly made it descendents my floor.

I walked in with the coffee carrier having bought one for me and one for Alex as this is now a part of my job as his adult babysitter. I'm the one who gets his food, I'm a human reminder system and I do all the shitty things he doesn't feel like doing.

I walked up to the door of his dark office and knocked. I then heard a grumpy 'come in' from the other side of the door signaling I could enter Satan's layer.

I walked in and set the coffee on his desk and then quickly made my way out of his office not wanting to intervene with the angry man that sits in there. I tried to make my encounters with him swift and fast so he didn't ruin my day

I sat down at my desk and sipped on my coffee getting ready for a day of annoying shit work. This was just being like a shitty CEO because I don't get any of the statuses but I have to do all the dirty work he can't push off to anyone else.

I then heard a knock on my door causing me to Pier up expecting to see a grumpy dark-haired man but instead, I am met with a happy Christina.

"Hey girly," she said, walking in causing me to smile as I haven't had anyone to talk to since moving into the big leagues. It feels lonely but I also feel like every day I live like a highly professional CIA agent but a really short one who just answers emails every day.

"Hi," I said, still looking at my computer just to make sure he had no early morning meetings I had to notify him about because as much as I hate it I need this job and him missing a meeting could mean being fired.

"How is it working up with the big wigs? I feel like I never see you at work because you are always babysitting Mr.Hotshot" she said sitting in one of the chairs facing my desk.

I don't know how she doesn't get behind on work with all the talking she does around the office.

"It's kind of lonely and boring," I said typing as she watched me.

"At Least you have eye candy Aless, all I have is Dave, and he kind of looks like he buys women's underwear offline," she said, twiddling with the gum in her mouth.

"Don't you have work to do?" I said annoyed, giving her a dirty look as a signal for her to leave.

"There's my Alessandra, I have lots of work that I have been putting off so I should get going. Have fun" she said before walking out the door with a smile, something that I don't think I'll ever walk out of this office with.

I start putting things in the planner as they are needed.

I noticed it is inching closer to lunchtime and as every day sparing an annoying conversation Alex sends me an email of what he wants me to go get him for lunch. Yeah, that's right the asshole doesn't even tell me what he wants for lunch he sends me a message like it kills him every time he has to talk to me.

I feel like I'm watching a toddler but I guess this is really what an assistant is. I run errands for him and I make his schedule.

I grab my purse and make my way to the elevator waving at a few people as I make my way by, the few people that aren't miserable because they are working such a high field office job. At Least buying him shit means I get a cool ass company card.
