The Billionaire's Abused Assistant

Chapter 2: I'm Sorry...

Manny was actually nice enough to drop me off at the school. It's actually been a while that he has. I miss that.

Before I got out of the car I thanked him and he gave me a good bye kiss. He told me he would be back to pick me up after my class was over. He was really trying to be nice.

Heading towards my class I saw a few of my friends so I stopped by to say hi. After a few minutes I heard my phone ringing so I pick it up.

"Hello?" I say once I answered it.

"Hey ma! Are you in class yet?" my best friend Farrah asks.

"Hey hon, actually I'm walking towards it now. Why, what's up." I ask curiously.

"Okay good. Listen, I have really good news for you..."

"Oh yeah? What is it?" I ask.

"Well, I found out that the new boss from my company is looking for a Temporary Assistant to cover the position for three months. He took over as the President since his father stepped down and his Assistant is having back surgery and needs to recover...soooo." she drawled the last part excitedly.

"Back surgery? Wow, that sucks." I tell her.

"I know, so anyways, I thought of you for the position. Aren't I the best?" she joked.

"I don't know Farrah. I don't really have the experience..." I began to say but she cut me off.

"Kalene...stop. You are going to school for Business Administrator and this will be a great opportunity for you! Plus, you've worked in an office before so you do have experience...and think of how great the pay will be!"

I sighed. She was right. I need more experience and the pay will help me with school.

"Anyways, you can't say no..." she says making me wonder what she did.

"What do you mean...Farrah! What did you do?" I ask quizzically.

"Oh, nothing. I had a copy of your resume which I cleaned up a bit and submitted it to Human Resources, sooo...you should be getting a phone call for an interview in the next few days."

"Farrah...WHY would you do that without telling me?" I ask rubbing my temple...this girl I tell you.

"I'm telling you now. Hey, I was only thinking of you. Shouldn't I get a thanks Farrah?" she says sarcastically.

"Thanks Farrah. I appreciate you thinking of me. Listen, I have to get going...I will call you later." I tell her reaching the door to my classroom.

"Alright. Call me later. Love ya ma!" she says and I tell her good bye. I love her, she's always thinking about me and takes care of me when I need it. She has been there for me through thick and thin and I know she'll always have my back. Even when she's begged me to leave Manny a thousand times.

2 Hours later...

My class was finally over so I was gathering my things to leave when my friend Luke came over.

"Hey Kalene...how are you?"

"Hey Luke. I'm good, just tired and glad that class is finally over. How are you?" I ask him as we begin to walk out of the room. Luke is a total sweetheart and very attractive. I see the way females look at him when he walks into the classroom or when he walks down the hallway.
