It was my first day at the office with Mya. I was hired to be a assistant and my job was to answer phone calls and set up appointments. It didn't sound like much when Mya told me but hey , the job pays well. 40$ an hour is big bucks.If I was to work 12 hours a day I would make 480 dollars a day. 480 dollars time five days is 2,400 dollars. A WEEK? Yeah , that's a lot of money. I had slipped into the shower and washed up quickly. Stepping out I got dressed , curled my hair and did my makeup . "JoJo... It's time to go see Nana and Papa. You ready?"

He nodded and smiled at me , " Go get your coat , and you can bring ONE toy. " He ran and got his coat , and headed to the door where I was at. I grabbed his hand and walked him to the car. He jumped in his car seat and I strapped him in. I got into the front seat and drove to my ma's house. I quickly got out and took him inside. "Oh , my baby ! Oop! And my other baby , How ya' doin baby?" She smiled and gave me a hug. "Hey , Ma. I gotta go to work." I told her.

"Work? Which celebrity called you now? J.LO?" She laughed , " No. Not this time, I got a job working with one of my friends. She's into psychology. "That's good. Don't you stress yourself out too much , dear. " I laughed , " I won't , Ma. Everything is under control." , "JoJo. Baby come here. Mommy has to go but I'll be back soon. Make sure you be good with nana and papa okay? I love you sooooooooo much !" I squeezed him and kissed his cheek and left.

I hurried over to Mya's building and made my way in. I took the elevator to the 3rd floor and seen a GLAMOROUS building. It was a beautiful Lavender color. Mya popped in my face and smiled big , " You made it ! And girrrlll. O M G ! Cuutteeee. You look gorgeous. " She cheered ," Thanks. " I smiled. "Sooo , look every body around here is super nice ! So you won't have to be shy . They all work for me anyway. I told them all about you and thiissss , Is your office. " Mya showed me , I smiled big and gave her a hug , "This is beyond amazing Mya. I really appreciate it. "

"Now we went over the drills of what you need to do , so I hope you got it down . You start as soon as the telephone rings. " Mya said walking out.

"Mya Williams office Tori Jay speaking  , how may I assist you today?" I said , answering the phone.

"Hey , Tori. I'm actually wanting to set an appointment." She said.

"How are you today ? May I have your name?" I asked.

"Kim Anderson . I want the marriage package . May I ask you a question, Tori?"

"Sure thing , Ms. Anderson. " I said typing her name in the computer . "How well is Ms.Williams? Is she a good therapist?"  She asked and I laughed ," From what I heard she's heaven sent. " Ms.Anderson was very nice considering I was exhausted today ! I set her an appointment and as I got ready to leave somebody just happened to walk inside my office. "Well Hello, Hello , Hello." A familiar voice said. I turned around and there he was, Bryce . I rolled my eyes and sighed. " Are you stalking me ?" I scoffed. He laughed and shook his head ."I work here. " He said.

" You got to be kidding me right now... " I shook my head and started packing my things. "Surprising? I thought Mya would've told you . " He laughed and I ignored him ,"I been calling you, shorty. You been ignoring me ?" He asked. Before I could turn my face to him he was in front of me and I breathed out slow looking at his facial structure. " Back up .. Back up Bryce. " I told him softly. " Come on , T. I know you missed me . " I laughed and pushed him hard. " I said, back up . " He laughed at me and gave me a tight hug.  " Let me take you to dinner. " He said .

" Boy ! Don't you have a girlfriend? Plus I have to go get my son. " I told him. "Let me take lil man too. " He smiled. " No thank you , Bryce. Please. Go home to your girlfriend . "

He came up to my face again and smiled , " Why do you keep mentioning her? We do--"

"Because you all up in my grill! Acting like you want me or some--"

"Who said this had to be a date?" He laughed. " We're just two friends going to dinner. "

" Maybe another time , Goodnight Bryce. "

He laughed and gave me another hug , " See you, Tori. "
