Sofia Adams

Five days!

Five days since I have been working here, in WM's Autotech. In these five days I've been working like a robot, not because I wanted but because I was given. My boss have been giving me work one after other non stop and I don't understand why is he doing so?

Everyday he'll order me to review tons of contract files that too within a little time, though I tried my best to complete them in the given times but many time I couldn't complete them all.

Then I've been running everyday to different departments to pass the files and also sending lots of emails a day and also I've been attending all the meetings with boss. Sometimes I feel like he have been purposely giving me too much work.

Though this works are tiring still I like working because that's was keep me fresh. Strange right but that's me.

In these five days I've learnt many things about the people working here.
Like how they like to work together while enjoying every minute, they talk, they laugh and they make fun of each other but they always work together.

Standing in today I remember my past, what I was and what have I become. People here calls me workaholic, arrogant, rude, the one word girl and many other names. I was never offended by those names instead I enjoy these all.

Workaholic, yes I always was, a trait I got from my mother but what people don't know about me is I too used to have friends, I too used to talk a lot, I too used to laugh a lot but one incident, that one incident changed me. That one incident forced me to never believe anyone.

The intercom buzzed bringing me back from my imagination

"Sofia come to my office", he hanged the call without hearing anything.

I stretch my neck which was aching due to sitting for a long time. I stand up and went to his office the files in my hands.

"May I come in sir?" I asked peeking through the slightly open door.

"Yeah come in" I walk to him and place the files on the table. He stared at those files, "How many are left?".

"Sir three of the seven are left" I reply.

"Okay, shit down" I take the seat infront of his table.

"So Sofia let's have some serious talk" he said sitting straight, "So the thing is, these five days I have been observing you and to be truth I am impressed. You worked all day without any complain, I must say you are the person I've been finding.

He've been finding, for what?

"You must have many questions in your mind, like why where you hired in such a hurry, why did i give you too much work and ofcourse what am I talking about right now".

"So I'll go straight to the point" he stood up from his chair with one hand in his pocket, "Sofia, I've a son, who is also the future boss of the company, after me he'll be the one taking over. He'll be graduating soon and I want him to take over as soon as he completes his graduation" he walks while rolling the paper weight on the table.

"Well that's a good thing I guess but how can I help you?" I asked.

"Actually my son is quite childish, I won't call him spoilt because he's not but sometimes he does things which makes me doubt my decision of handing him over my company"

"He is stubborn and rude but mostly he is scared, scared of the world. He's scared of believing others, he's scared of media and mostly he's scared of getting hurt but he never shows that. He acts as a playboy in his college just to show others that he's a cool and spoilt rich kid who fears nothing" he laughs to himself. Looking at his eyes anyone can say how much he loves his son.
