CEO'S Assistant

Chapter 4

Later that same day

Savannah Locke

After leaving Jones Industries I had a smile on my face the size of a giant banana and my joy was through the roof. I finally got a job to help my dad out with all of the bills we have and I couldn't be happier. Laying in my bed still smiling about the amazing day I've had I think back to when I was crying in the bathroom and met Maria the drop dead gorgeous woman and then it hit me omg I slipped in front of her I mean it wasn't too bad but it was bad enough for her to have noticed my baby voice and I've always tried to hide that side of me because a lot of people aren't that open to well different types of people who have a different way of living their lives and my dad is one of those people I mean yes he loves me dearly but he isn't so understanding when it comes to the more nontraditional lifestyles that's the simpler way to say it. I mean it does suck to always have to hide all of my little stuff from him but I mean I hope he never finds them because I don't know what he'd do if I'm being honest. I grab my phone calling Kacie because I wanna tell her all about my day and she was so excited for me we stayed on the phone for a whole hour until I heard the front door slam which caused me to jump up off my bed and peek out my bedroom door. I hang up the phone and creep around towards the stairs looking down over the banister seeing my dad upset which is new to me because he never comes home this early it was only 11:45pm and he normally doesn't come till 2 or 3am so this was new. As I'm still looking down the banister I see one of stuffed bears on the couch and he sees it as well my mind goes into a deep frenzy as I watch him grab it shaking his hand looking towards the banister he sees me "get your ass over here now Savannah" he says and the sound of his voice lets me know that he is upset. Looking up I meet his intense glare "wtf is this Savannah" it takes everything in me not to slip in front of him "w-well dad its a stuffed b-bear that I have remember the ones mom g-got me when I w-was younger-" I said softly before getting cut off "why the fuck do you still have this you aren't a fucking baby Savannah and you better not be fucking acting like it" he spats out I shake my head "n-no dad I would never" stumbling on my words more seeing his patience run thin "Savannah I need you gone tonight you have no job and all you do is sit around the fucking house which I fucking pay for you are a fucking freeloader and I don't want you here anymore" he bellows out cause tears to stream down my cheeks I'm so shocked I don't know what to do "b-but I got a j-job today d-dad that's why I stayed u-up waiting for you" I cried out he just shook his head and sat down on the couch "you got 15mins before I start throwing your shit out you are grown woman still staying with your dad and you just now got a job how convenient" he shows no sympathy no remorse nothing at all he just sits there staring at me as if he hates me and never wants to see me again and with that I crying running all the way up to my room packing everything I can into my duffle bag and backpack which is literally my whole room except for the furniture. Finishing up I grab my running shoes which I left those out because they are extremely comfortable to walk in no matter how long you've been on your feet for which I really enjoy feels like I'm walking on a cloud. I take one look back at my dad still seeing the same hatred looking in his eyes as he sees me with my bags I walk out the door and before I can even beg him to let me stay he slams the door right in my face not giving me a second glance. I cry as I call Kacie to which she answers quickly and I can explain everything to her and she was just as shocked as me and gives me nothing but her love and she told me that she'd have to see if she can let me stay with her and her caregiver but he's not home at the moment so with that I make my way to Jones Industries because well I've already taken a shower and I do have to start tomorrow morning so I might as well be here bright and early. As I walk up to the building I look up looking at the windows seeing a light on in the office at the very top and wonder if its a janitor or someone working late shrugging it off I make my way into the alleyway putting my duffle bag behind me as back support and using my backpack as a pillow and shield from the cool breeze. As the time passes by I end up falling asleep hoping that my dad lets me come back and that I'm hopefully safe in this alleyway.
