"GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY OFFICE!!" I yelled at my now ex-secretary. This one was worst than the other one. Couldn't get my appointments and meetings at the right time. Can't find the folders that I need, can't do her fucking job, I always have to do everything myself. Now I'll need to ask Nick to get me a new one. Is there no one competent enough for doing their fucking job anymore?

I left the building a few hours later, getting into my black Porsche and driving back home. I made a little detour before to go visit my mother. I stop at a little flower shop and bought her a bouquet of lilies, her favourite.

After I knocked at her door and she opened it, she was happily surprise to see me. I give her my biggest smile before hugging her and handing her the flowers.

"Danke honey" she said with a huge smile.

I don't get to see her as often as I used to, so when I get the chance to see her. I try my best to come pay her a little visit.

"How was work?" She ask me while walking to the kitchen.

"Was good" I say in German.

"How was your day?" I ask her in return.

"Quiet, I read a little and went gardening" she says while putting water in a vase for the flowers.

My mother was maybe in her fifties, but she was still a really beautiful woman. Black dark hair fall on her shoulders, beautiful light green eyes like mine. Some wrinkles were beside her eyes but that didn't change her beauty. She was wearing a black long sleeve shirt and white pants, I had to admit she had style for her age.

"So your dad called today" she said.

I roll my eyes asking her what he wanted this time, she said he only wanted to see how she was and knows more about me. My father and mother divorce when I was younger. He wasn't living in the country anymore. He was happily married to another woman, I didn't hated him for this. He was happy and so was I for him, but we lost any kind of relationship since I choose mom over him and kinda resented him for leaving her.

"He wanted to see when you would be free or in town he would like to see you. Honey he's still your father even if we're not together anymore" she told me.

"I might be able to go there soon, I have some business in Boston next week, I'll check up with him if I have time." I told her not so happy.

"Danke honey" she said coming to me and kissing my cheek. I fake a smile for her, before telling her that I would be leaving I just wanted to check on her.

"Before you go I've got something to tell you" she says surprising me.

I turn to look at her worried she might be hurt or something.

"What is it? Are you okay? Are you hurt? Did something happened?" I says inspecting her.

"I'm fine honey, just that.... I met someone" she said out of a sudden.

"You did?" I ask her completely confused, but curiosity got the best of me.

"Yes. He's sweet and gentle to me, you don't have to worry about him. But I would love if you could meet him" she tell me with a nervous smile.

"Of course mom. Whatever makes you happy!" I give her my big smile and hold her.

"Danke" she said.

When I got home I checked my phone and saw a missed call from my dad. I called him back and when he answered I told him I might be able to see him next week, while I'll be in town for business. He was happy to hear that and would wait for my call. I told him goodbye, got undress changing into some grey sweatpants on before getting into bed. I close my eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
