A New Way

"Why didn't you wake me up?!"

"That's not my job." i said sipping on my coffee

"Whatever."

--------

"So you ready for today." i asked taking a glance at her outfit. Just the simplest thing made her look good. She looked my way then turned back around.

"So you not talking to me now?" she still hadn't said anything. I swear she could be so stubborn sometimes.

"You know I am your boss."

"and?"

"and i could turn this car around and bring your ass back to the house and you're stuck with no job, and with no job you have no money, and with no money you have no life."

"You're such an asshole."

"Don't remind me."

About 5 minutes later we reached the building. I showed her what she needed to do and then headed to my office.

"Matthew!" i heard someone yell my name before i could even unlock my office door.

"Yea, what's up?" i said towards Mikayla

"What is your fucking problem!"

"What are you talking about?" i asked confused

"How could you do Jenna so dirty like that?!" i didn't want to cause a scene or any unwanted attention with her so i led her into my office and closed the door

"Mikayla what are you talking about?"

"So you want to act dumb? You're never here so-"

"Watch who you're talking too, i'm your boss and i could fire you any minute for disrespecting me, in my office." i emphasized

"Okay, whatever but as i was saying since you didn't come these past weeks with all do respect, sir, i haven't had time to talk to you about the situation but Matthew, you are a complete asshole! How could you cheat on Jenna like that. You are such a pig!" i was so flabbergasted that i couldn't even open my mouth to speak.

"First off, this is your last and only warning, you are a great worker and i don't want to have to let you go. Secondly, don't you ever in your life insult me like that again, i'm not the one who cheated, ask your friend again and make sure she tells you the truth before you come in my office calling me a pig. You're dismissed." and with that she walked out and slammed the door.

"Like he is such an asshole, i mean who does that?" Mikayla just kept on blabbering about how Matthew cheated on Jenna. I didn't have a clue of what she was talking about plus it wasn't any of my business, so i just listened and kept quiet.

"Can you believe that? She caught him in bed with some girl, a black girl at that. Who would switch sides like that, i mean no offense but that's just how i see it." I kind of had the thought that Mikayla didn't like me so i had no clue of why she was speaking to me. But what she just said was just not what i thought she would say especially if she was talking to me and I'm black.

"I don't understand." i said

"What don't you understand? Matthew was with a white girl, then he moved on to a black girl. Their trashy, ghetto, hood rats that don't belong in our group....like you." she said smiling, but i was surely not returning the favor

"First of all you are not going to disrespect me right in front of my face cause i will break your ass into two with my bare hands. Secondly you are a racist, conniving bitch. What in your right mind would think that what you said was okay. Because she found him with a black girl doesn't make any difference with him getting caught with a white, spanish, asian, any type of girl. So if Jenna found you in bed with him it would be okay because you're white?

"No because i would never try to get with Matthew, especially since Jenna's my best friend, and yes it would have been better if she found him fucking a white girl. Their actually way better in bed and prettier." she said all cocky like. I was so close to smashing her face in the wall, but i kept my composure and walked away, heading to Matthew's office.
