What did I get myself into!?

Chapter 1

I woke up feeling bubbly and jumpy inside. I felt as if something good was going to happen to me today. I didn’t know what got to me but I felt like going for a run.

As soon as I ate breakfast, I quickly went and brushed my teeth and tied my hair up into a bun. I went and put my runners on, and then I headed out of the door. As soon as I stepped foot out the door, I felt the morning breeze hit my warm skin. I jogged around central park passing by some an elderly couple feeding some ducks in the pond, and I couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy hit through my body. I wanted something like that to happen to me. Growing old with the person I love.

As I was jogging around, I couldn’t help but think about Ryan. What was he doing right now?

A wave of emotions surged through me and I could feel my body slowly slump into a big whirlpool of emptiness.  

I missed being held in those strong arms of his, those passionate kisses we had shared, but he threw it all away when I caught that cheating bastard with that bimbo Jessica, my arch nemesis from high school. I remembered coming home from work and as I entered our bedroom, I saw him on top of her, naked, and saw her smirking at me as well as telling him to go faster and harder as if he was enjoy it. He gradually slowed down as he followed where her eyes were looking at.

As soon as our eyes met I felt a tear escape my eyes, why would he do such a thing, I mean we've been together for over a year.

I saw him quickly get off of her, but I no longer wanted to stay there and hear those pathetic excuses of his or anything from him as a matter of fact, so I ran – as fast as I could with tears dripping down my face.  I ran blindly, pushing everyone out of my way with tears continuously dripping down on my face, to Rye’s apartment. When the door of her apartment swayed opened, I saw her standing there, and I began to bawl my eyes out. Asking her why he would do such a thing.

I spent the next couple of the days, crying non-stop, crying myself to sleep.   

Get to get over it by now, my mind told me.

I felt the cool breeze kiss my cheeks and realised that I had stopped jogging. I shook my head slightly, shaking those thoughts away and resumed back to my jogging. I had to get back to it, because it was the only thing that had helped me take my mind away – away from him.

He was not worth a single dime of your time Alexis. Not in this life or the next, will he ever be, were the last words that were spoken in my head before the thoughts of him were completely wiped out of my mind.

****

Silently, I sat down in my boss’s office as she glared at me. That definitely wasn’t a good look at all. She looked like she was going to kill me. Yet, I couldn’t help but chuckle at the thoughts that ran through my mind of the multiple ways she could kill me right at this instance, in her office.

I wonder why she would call me in her office. It's not like I did anything wrong. I've done all my requirements whatever she had asked me to do.

She cleared her throat which interrupted my thoughts. “Do you know why you are in here, Ms. Taylor?”

“Umm.. No Ms. Applepiper.” The mention of her name had always urged me to laugh out loud; it reminded me of apple pie. Mmm… apple pie. The thought of it is making me hungry. I think I might go down to the groceries after this and get some ingredients to make myself some.
