Unexpected clichè

Cap. 1 The boy

Susan entered the tall building, purposefully clicking her high heels on the marble floor to gather the attention of the people in the room. She is the boss' girlfriend, and she wants all of them to know that. Fighting the urge to roll her eyes, the girl at the reception stood up and greeted her politely

Caty: "Welcome miss Susan, you are here without an appointment I guess"

She asked scanning without paying particular attention through the boss' agenda.

Susan: "No my dear, but I know my little bear always has time for me"

She said leaning on the counter. Caty looked back at her unamused before closing the agenda

Caty: "I'll see what I can do"

And she made her way to the office. She knocked on the door and waited for the approval to come in.

Caty: "Susan is here for you"

Brett: "Oh ok, let her in, I guess I can find half an hour for her"

Caty nodded and scratched her nape in frustration

Caty: "I shouldn't be the one saying this to you, but she's coming here too often lately and this company won't direct itself..."

Brett: "What can I do? She is like a savage feline, not even her mom is able to control her"

Caty: "Maybe you can get a personal secretary to help you deal with your work, you know, someone that can help you deal with the meetings and the calls"

Brett: "It could be a good idea..."

Susan: "What honey?"

She asked as she entered the room to place a possessive arm around Brett's waist.

Caty: "I'll let the two of you have your meeting..."

She turned around refraining from slapping the girl in the face and went for the door.

Susan: "What were you talking about?"

Asked Susan as she poured herself a generous amount of cognac from Brett's drinks

Brett: "About the possibility of getting a secretary. I'm having a lot of work lately and Caty cannot do it for me anymore, if my schedule keeps being this full, and a certain person keeps appearing here without warning"

He looked in a scolding way toward the girl that had taken off her heels and was comfortably laying on the leather sofa in the studio.

Susan: "I can't help it, you know sometimes I want to see you out of nowhere"

She pouted as she squeezed her arms to push her breast out. Brett sighed and sat down near her.

Brett: "Anyway, I think a secretary is not a bad idea...we are expanding and it's true that I have a really tight schedule..."

Susan: "Let me choose them!"

Brett's head snapped in her direction as the girl leaned toward him with glittering eyes.

Brett: "I beg your pardon?"

Susan: "Little bear, you know the cliché: the boss falling for the secretary. I don't want my precious man to fall for the first random girl. Let me chose a person for you"

Brett contemplated the question for a second. It was stupid in his opinion because he knew he wouldn't have cheated on Susan with the first girl they were able to find. He had worked with Caty for years now and she was a pretty girl. But he knew better than to go against Susan's will.

Brett: "Ok...but I have the last word"

Susan: "Don't you trust me?"

She pouted, crossing her arms again
