On the Plus side

Work?

My eyes shot open as the alarm blared throughout my ears.

"Ugh!" I groaned. I hate waking up early in the morning for work. I am not a morning person and I am proud to admit it.

I struggled to roll over as I huffed and puffed. I finally stopped fooling around and swung my legs around the bed.

"Shit, fuck, got damn it!" I cursed walking angrily to the bathroom.

I quickly began to get ready by taking a shower and sliding on my clothes. I proceeded to brush my teeth and apply light make up.

As I rushed to step in to my strapped heels I grabbed my charger and phone now fully ready to leave.

I made it down to the ground level in know time seeing as it was only 7am in the morning and a Monday on top of that so I was good so far.

I walked into the garage and slid in my car putting it in reverse and driving out the parking lot.

While I was driving I was thinking about my weekend with Javier. He was so sweet and such a gentleman.

He left last night and told me he would text me whenever he had the time. It was fine with me cause I'm going to be busy.

I pulled up into the parking lot of my workplace and grabbed my bags. My heels tapped on the ground as I entered the double doors of the lucrative building.

I walked through security with no problems and spoke to everyone as I went to the elevator. I pressed the 6th floor as I awaited out side. The elevator came down and I stepped on and went on the ride.

The doors slide open once on my store and I was the second one there. Another one of my Co-workers Justin was there with me. He's a cute brown man with a beard. He would flirt with me from time to time but mostly just playing.

We were here so early because we basically ran this company. We are the top lawyers of this company and they put everything into U.S. To succeed everyday.

"Good Morning Misses Oya." Justin spoke walking up to me with a hot cup of coffee in his hand. He gave it to me and I thanked him.

"Good morning J, so what do we have today?" I asked ready to get this day over with. I sipped on my coffee waiting for him to explain the case of the week

"Well we still working on the Robinson case but we have a new urgent case that we have to handle today." He handed me a manila folder.

"She goes by the name of Isabel . Her babies father brutality beat her with an inch of her life when he found her speaking to a man. Now the reason it's urgent because the man is... Lance." He spoke slowly.

My heart shattered as I looked at the floor. "Baby's father?" I spoke more to my self.

"It's okay we will get his ass at lunch don't worry. In the mean time work on the Robinson case and I'll start on this one then We can go over it at lunch." He said putting his hand on my shoulder in a comforting manner.

All throughout the morning I thought about the case Justin was working on right now. How could Lance do that to me? A whole family on the side of our relationship.

Lunch time hit quickly as I gathered my things and walked out of my office. Justin was waiting on me with the folders in his hand as he took my things and held them for me.

He would do little gentleman things for me as a friend and I loved it.

He held the elevator as I stepped in. We began descending on the elevator while he broke the silence.
