CHRESANTOS POV







"And that is why I would be such a great candidate for this position." I exhaled a deep breath, trying to relax myself after finishing my long presentation.



God, I hope I didn't sound like a fool infront of this man.



The second I walked inside this office I felt no type of superior.



It was as if the feeling of self conscious filled my veins making my speech to stutter, or ruffle my fingers through my short curly hair every time Mr.Perez's eyes wondered on me.



I-I just don't know why.... But for some odd reason he made me feel........... Defenseless.



It was like one quick stare from those brown bright eyes and my nerves were done for.....



"August"!



The sudden loud yell of my name made my body jump as tention focused back in the reason why I was here.



"Yes sir"? I whispered under my breath watching Mr.Perez lean back in his black chair, behind the marble desk that was placed between us.



"I said you got the job".



What?!!



"Huh"? My eyes were completely widened in shock as the tall curly mixed man smirked in his seat.



"I said you got the position, be here bright and early on Monday".



All I could do was reach forward from excitement and clasp his hand with mines, immediately shaking our arms.



"Oh god, t-thank you sir, y-you won't regret your decision, I-I promise". Stuttering like an idiot I spoke with joyful tears filling my eyes as my now new boss just chuckled.



"Yes, we'll I hope so Chresanto". He said my name in a slight Latin accent making my cheeks to get redden before I released him out of my grip and nodded my head.



"See you on Monday sir". I mumbled under my breath while picking up my closed suit case off his desk.



"Same for you August"......





LATER ON THAT DAY...





JACOBS POV





"God Monica I'm a wreck".



I spoke with frustration to my dear friend/ secretary In the small spacious break room.



"You should of just seen his face, filled with such joy and happiness, gosh I know it would of made your day".



If you didn't catch on, my words were referring to my new employe Chresanto August.



"I bet so Jacob". Monica cooed while rolling her small eyes behind her black framed glasses.



Her gesture immediately made me huff in awe, "I'm completely serious Monica, the moment he walked in he just made me fill with joy".



And "excitement"



Not bothering to speak that last part out loud my secretary's voice filled the air once again.



"Your farther faxed me earlier wondering if you would be going over the new profits next week".



Ughhh, way to ruin my mood.



"No". I mumbled with no emotion, setting my mug down before my eyes fazed upon the frown on Monica's lips.



"Is it just me or have you been just avoiding any requests from your father this month". She said with concern causing a sigh to leave my lips.



"No I-it's not you, me and the almighty ass hole got into it last time he visited my office".



My body suddenly cringed as memories from the last encounter I had with my dad filled my head.



The yelling, the screaming, the threatening, the flying objects.



God, I thought I was gonna kill that self centered man.



"We'll whatever's going on I hope you two resolve it soon".



"I hope so too". I cooed immediately after a sudden thought popped in my head.



"Besides, even if I wanted to go over the profits I wouldn't be able to, my mother called and wants me to visit her next week."



Carelessly shrugging, I lifted my drink back to my lips as Monica gasped from sudden excitement.



"Oh my gosh! You're going to Mexico next week?!! Eeeep I wanna come"!!!!!



Squealing like a hormonal teenager at a Chris brown concert I watched Monica jump up from her seat.



"Ayee shhh loca, I don't want the whole faculty to know my business".



I rolled my eyes from annoyance.



Lord I need more friends....



Male ones to be exact..



"Sorry". Monica pursed her lips from embarrassment while I nodded in forgiveness.



"Soooo your going by your self orrrr"-



"I have no choice". Cutting her off, I pursed my lips to the side as Monica nodded her head.



"Unless you invite a certain someone from the office".



Monica suddenly spoke with curiosity as I mimicked her tone, "If your refereing to yourself then no, I'm going to need some one I can trust to keep this company running while I'm gone."



Immediately after my lips stilled Monica spoke back with ease.



"I was thinking about your joyful new employee".



My body immediately stiffened from her words, Chresanto?



Heavens no...



I mean I just met the man what? 2 hours ago....



My thoughts thinking back about our meeting in my office made my body shiver from wonderisly dreaming about his voice.



"Umm Monica If you haven't notice.. I think the man is completely straight".



I mumbled gulping the rest of my now warm coffee.



"Yeah but knowing you, he won't be un curious soon"...







CHRESANTOS POV





"Yeah Ma, can you believe it?, I got the position"! Practically smiling through the phone I entered inside my 1 bed room apartment, dropping my jacket and suit case to the floor.



"Oh Santo I'm so proud of you!!"



Hearing those words from my mom made me smile from ear to ear.



"I guess all those years in college really did pay off, huh?"



I walked further inside my home, my steps resting once I reached inside my bedroom, "Gosh, your sister would be so proud of you right now".



The sudden mention of my older deceased sibling made me pause and take a seat on my bed.



"Yeaahhh". I breathed, combing my free hand through my curls.



"Hey Ma". I whispered out, barely audio able as I felt tears stinging my eyes.



"Mhmm".



"I'll call you back later, I'm gonna get my outfit our for Monday".



"Okay"..



With that,the both of us said our "I-love-you's" and hung up the phone.



Leaving me to my tears slowly coming down my cheeks as I began to think about my older sister who was probably smiling down on me.



"I hope she's proud"....
