The elevator stopped. "What happened?" Bella asked. "Why did it stop?" She asked. She breathed fast. What is happening with her? She sounded so scared. "Mr. Belinskij, why did the elevator stop?" She asked fearfully while looking at me. She looks scared. "I don't know, it's probably stuck. I will call security to get us out, just wait," I said while looking straight.
I took my phone and called security to get us out. "Hey, Mr. Belinskij, is there a problem?" The security asked. "The elevator is stuck, come and fix it," I said. "Yes sir," he said. I hang up. Her breathing became heavier. I looked at her. "I can't breathe," she said as she was about to fall. "Bella!" I shouted while I quickly coughed her before she fell on the elevator floor. What is going on?
"It's okay Bella, it will open soon," I said. Can't she be in tiny places? We sat down on the elevator floor. I put her head on my chest gently. I began to stroke her hair so she could calm down. "It's going to be fine, I promise," I said.
I looked down at her. She is hugging me tightly. "How was your first day, Bella?"
I need to calm her down.
"It was great."
"Good, did you get along with your co-workers?"
"Yes, they all are friendly," she said. I smirked. "That's good to hear."
"Was it a lot of work at the start?"
"No, no, it was fine," she said. "You sure, Bella?"
She looked up at me. She nodded with a cute smile.
"Great," I said.
"Did you work as an assistant in another company before?"
The door opened. "No, it's my first time working as an assistant," she said. "Mhm."
"The door opened," I said. She quickly looked toward it. "Oh, I didn't realize that," she said. I smirked.
She slowly backed back. I looked at her. I let go of her. She got up. She quickly walked out of the elevator. I got up too and walked toward her. "Are you okay now?" I asked her. "Yes sir, I'm fine," she said quietly while looking down. She is probably scared to be in tiny places. "Thank you for the talk," she said with a smile as she looked up at me. I nodded. "I have to go, goodbye," she said. She walked away. Why did she take the elevator then?
