I've been here a little over a week now and I just had a few last minute things to do before I went home. I did surprise pop up's on the store locations and today I was going to my office in Paris.

Once I headed inside the building I was immediately greeted.

"Don't push that button Imani. I thought you knew better than that." I said motioning the junior marketer from pushing the button they have when I enter the office. To snitch of course.

"Follow me." I said and she did. Heels clicked behind me. When I glanced back her head was down and looking at her feet.

"Posture is a big thing here, or did I hire you on accident? Head up." I said and she did just that.

"I'd expect for you to be confident in your self."

I wanted to know why she was so shy, it was something that definitely peaked my curiosity but I never did because I ended up in a relationship and now I couldn't give a fuck less.

Once the elevator dinged the doors open to reveal people running around like their heads were off of their body. With papers and bags and jackets. I nodded making a mental note.

"Uh, Ms.Somali." Imani mumbled.

"Yes?" I asked.

I looked at her but she broke eye contact immediately.

"Can I - when you're done here can I ask you something ?" She asked. And I nodded.

"Sure." I said stepping off the elevator. I made my way past everyone and into the conference room.

Once I got in they all stood up and I motioned for them to sit down.

"Look, I have to leave in a few hours. Present and I'll let you know what I hate and what I love. Please don't waste my time." I said sitting down.

They presented their ideas and I listened. I got up and greeted Lori. When it's time for socialization then we do that. When it's time for work then that's what it is.

I leaned down to her ear and whispered. "Clear this up for me I got to go." While I was whispering I could feel eyes on me.

I looked up through the glass door and saw Imani's eyes on me. She bit her lip and then looked away nervously.

I leaned up and cleared my throat.

"Good day everyone." I said.

I swiftly made my way out and onto the elevator. Imani trailed behind me. She stood in the back of the elevator and I stood in front. It was silent.

Once the elevator dinged I started walking into the lobby. Then it hit me. I turned around.

"What did you need to speak to me about?" I asked her and she finally looked up from her feet.
