~ UNKNOWN POV

"What do you mean he sent all the money!" I hear Boss barking on the phone. I am standing outside his door but I can hear every single thing he is saying. His voice is so audible that it feels like he is talking right in front of me. I have to say, I am surprised that he is speaking in English, he hardly communicates in that language.

"Whatever it is, I don't want to listen to your fucking explanations, just do as I say." He rants

Holy shit! This man seems to be more frustrated than usual. I wonder what evil barked into his head today. Seems like I came on the wrong day and certainly at the wrong time.

I exhale, mentally preparing myself to walk inside the office. As I turn the doorknob, and was about to push the door open, my actions halt when Piper speaks. 

"Don't go in there, I am telling you." She warns. Piper is Boss's secretary. She is a blonde-haired woman who appears to be in her late twenties.

"This is his fifth call today and he seems to get angrier. Take my advice come back tomorrow." She tells me.

I don't respond to her immediately as I check her out, that blue gown sure hugs at the right places.

"I think I can handle him," I finally respond.

Piper is right, he seems very angry today and now is not the right time to meet him but I can't come back tomorrow he specifically asked me to come tomorrow. The last thing I want to do is disobey him.

She shrugs "Whatever you say."

I am about to speak when I hear Boss yelling on the phone again. "Always remember Jennie, you don't fucking control your life, I control it for you. Make another mistake and you will fucking regret it!" He barks through the phone.

I will be lying if I say that it didn't move me back. I begin to wonder why he asked me to meet him today. I know that it has to do with the recent incident but what I am confused about is why he told me to meet him at his office. He has never told me to meet him here.

"You still think you can handle meeting him today?" Piper ask pulling me out of my thoughts

"I don't have a choice." I shrug before I knock on the door

"Come in," Boss says from inside. I turn my gaze to Piper who seems to be more anxious than me

"Here goes nothing," I say as I turn the doorknob and step inside.

Inside, I find him standing by the window. He turns around to face me, he has a cigarette in his mouth. I Immediately lower my gaze knowing that if our eyes meet, I will be dead.

"я прихожу с миром и ухожу с миром [I come in peace and I leave in peace]" I say with my gaze still facing the ground

"Поговори со мной [Speak to me]" He says walking towards me.
