The Assistant's Dilemma

Ch.13

(Courtney)

As I'm getting dressed from my shower my phone starts ringing which makes me look down and see ..... Giovanni well it reads Mr.Ford but you get it.

He should know I called off today. Plus work is over. It's 6:30 he should be gone. Do I answer?
Well too late it stopped ringing. Maybe he didn't mean to call. As I start brushing my hair it rings again and him again.

I pick it up and watch it ring and ring and ring. Finally I just decide answer the phone. "Hello"

"Come to the office"

"For what? The building is closed"

"I'm still here , so come to the office"

"I called off today"

"Yeah I know and you didn't even tell me"

"I emailed Kim"

"Well you have to email me too Courtney"
Both sides go silent before he starts talking again. "Come to the office"

"For what?"

"Will you just listen to me!"

"Why do you get so irritated so fast?!"

"It hasn't been the best day!" He says

"So why do you want me to come to the office?"

"I just said i haven't had the best day!"

"What's that have to do with me? You didn't have a good day so why do I have to come"

"COURTNEY, ..... can you just please come to the office please" he yells my name but then lowers his voice.

"okay" I say and I hang up.

What the fuck does he want? He doesn't sound very pleased today it when does he ever? Talking bout he had a bad day? Okay and? It could be anything with him. And after yesterday I really don't wanna go see him till tomorrow. He's rude for no reason sometimes.

I walk downstairs and see Angelina

"Where you going? I wanna watch the movie" Angelina ask as she sits on the couch

"I have to go to the office and pick up some paperwork"

"Didn't you call off?"

"Yes but I forgot a bunch of work" I just lie. She'll freak if I told her Giovanni called wanting me over after building hours.

"How Long you gonna be gone?"

"Not too long" I'm hoping "I'll be back though"

"Okay I would watch the movie without you but take forever"

"I'll try , hopefully traffic isn't bad and i won't be there long"

"Alrighty text me when you get there. love youuuu"

"Love you too"

I unlock the building doors with my key and walk in. I've never been here when no one was here. It's weird not seeing Kim here and greet me lol.

I reach the top floor and am now standing in front of his office doors. Instead of knocking I just walk in. He wanted me here so bad well here the fuck I am. I see him sitting here his face in his hands. "Well I'm here"

He pops up and looks at me "oh so you did decide to come"

"I just got here and you already are talking to me with such attitude"

"I'm just saying I didn't think you'd come"

"Well I'm here so what do you want?"

"I just wanted you to come here"
