NEW LOVE

5

Walking into my office I'm kinda excited it's finally Friday Emily greets me with her warm smile and my coffee. I Seriously have no idea what I would do without her, Ive been paying more attention to Mario and he's giving me really bad vibes. Ive been looking for new assistants I kinda feel bad for not giving him a heads up.

Today I'm wearing a black fitted dress that stops right above my knees that hugs my curves I don't try to hide my body nor am I ashamed of it. I see Mario looking at me like a horn dog, making me roll my eyes internally. I call him into my office "Sit we need to have a talk Ive noticed the looks you give me they are not appropriate and they make me uncomfortable I've decided I will let you go"

Anger crosses his face his jaws clench and I notice his white knuckles as they squeeze his chair "Why I haven't even touched you all I do is look" is he serious right now? "Just because you haven't touched me doesn't mean I don't feel violated and uncomfortable" I see his face become red in anger 'well this is taking a turn' I say to myself "According to the contract that you signed when you were hired it states I can terminate you at anytime so Mario your fired pack your things and leave my building now."

"You can't do that!" He yells " You'll be nothing without me I know everything about you, you will regret this mark my words Catalaya" he storms out and slams my door. I call security to make sure he leaves my property, Louise walks in "what the fuck was that about laya?" She says I release the breathe I didn't know I was holding "I just fired him, he makes me uncomfortable with the looks he gives me."

"Well its about damn time you got rid of that creepy fucker." I chuckle at her response "Hey theres this club opening downtown tonight I say lets go get wasted." She knows I don't drink she means lets get her wasted and me take care of her, I could use the distraction. "Yes I'm down to go." She squeals "I thought I was gonna have to beg you to come!" I laugh at her craziness I notice she's in Pajamas like I said her fashion is ass.

Ive been thinking about Paris I feel so drawn to her art it's as if she put her soul into every line or curve that's drawn. That's something that can't be taught I tried to google her last night but I came up with nothing. I even checked to see if she had any social media but came up empty handed.

I hear my phone ringing and I just know it's the bruja mother of mine, "Hello mother what can I help you with?" I really try with this woman but she's caused me so much pain "Have you seen your father yet? he came up there yesterday a day early saying he wanted to spend time with you" thats weird I haven't heard from him at all. But she doesn't need to know that "Yes we had breakfast this morning before I came into work." I suddenly hear the line go dead 'pendeja'

I have a meeting with the design team on my new lingerie line so I make my way to the design floor which is 2 levels below my office. Walking in I see everyone in their element with smiles on their faces, I really try to provide a safe peaceful workplace for my employees. I sit at the table and let Justin the director of my design team lead the meeting.

Im so proud of where everything is heading I know Paris will add so much value to this company. I sometimes wonder if I'm looking more forward to seeing her or having her work for the company. Hell it's both who am I kidding, Im also kinda excited about going out with Louise tonight. Stepping out of my element will be good for me, opening myself to new experiences.

My long work day has finally come to an end I head home as I'm walking to my car I feel like I'm being watched, I tell myself I'm probably tired from the long work week I've had. Driving home I feel as if tonight something special will happen something new..
