I step aside, as the man waiting to enter Aaron's office walks past me, briefly flashing me a curious glance, before walking in.
I turn and see Ashton, whom i can now know is Aaron's PA, and give him a polite smile and wave, to which he nods back, then i go off on my way.
I also notice this time, that there are alot more people in the corridor now, than they were when i arrived a few minutes earlier, and they all seem to be giving me a side glance, or curious look over their shoulder, almost as if they were all waiting for me to walk by.
I continue on my way, but before i turn into the man reception area leading to the elevators, a door to one of the rooms along there opens, and Eva, in a blank and white polka dot skirt and white shirt walks out, he red heels softly hitting the carpeted floor, and carrying a bunch of files in her hands.
"Rocky? Oh my God, help me" she mutters abruptly, some files almost slipping out of her grip, and so she raises her thigh to keep them within her grasp.
I quickly rush to her side and get a few of them out of her hands.
"Thanks" she murmurs, and starts walking ahead of me to where i assume is her office.
"I swear, today is like the mother of all Mondays, I'm buried in a shitload of work.. it's crazy" She mumbles.
She opens the door and walks in, but forgetting that i'm following right behind her and lets it swing back into my face.
"Geee, thanks." I mutter, when the door almost hits my face, if it wasn't for the documents held in my hands.
"Oh, sorry" she hurries back to keep it open for me, and then closes it after i'm in.
I put the files on her desk and sit down.
"Hai" she murmurs when she sits down too, catching her breath.
"Busy much?"
"Busy much" She replies with a grin.
"Nice office" i murmur, standing up and looking around.
It's not nearly as large as Aaron's, but it's spacious, very fancy and it totally suits my sister.
"I know right?" She replies with a grin and i laugh.
"Your best one yet." I utter, comparing it to her previous offices before this one.
"I know" she responds loudly.
"To work on this floor and to have an office like this when i'm still kinda new here? you have no idea what a huge accomplishment that is....and i guess it makes up for these terrible Monday blues..." she retorts and i laugh.
"Well, glad it's all worth it then." I say.
"And you, do you not have work to do right now or something?" she asks.
"Nope..working night" i say.
"Oh right, i forgot.....lucky, maybe i should have been a doctor too instead, so that i can work at night, and then have all this free time to lazy around all day." She mutters lazily, stretching her hand on the smooth surface of the edge of her desk.
"Right, i can imagine you awake at 3am, walking up and down the hospital halls in sneakers, and attending to sick and old people." I say, deliberately mentioning two groups of people that make her the most uncomfortable.
As expected, she scowls and i smile and shake my head.
I look at my watch and find that it's almost 1pm.
"Aren't you going for lunch? " i ask.
"Can't, remember i took Friday afternoon off so i could go shopping for the party? well, reality recons...now i have all this work to clear off my desk, so unfortunately, I don't have the luxury to go out to eat, but i ordered something to eat while i work." She says, staring at the files on her desk with dread.
