Anastasia's pov There are always pros and cons to a job. Being Chris's personal assistant has me in Harlem one minute then to Brooklyn the next. Not that long but when I hit traffic it's a bitch. Chris is very hands on with whatever he does and only twenty seven, being apart of his dad's company isn't the only thing he wants to do career wise. He recently partnered up with clothing designer to open a store. Chris loves to see people with ambition and determination, this kid has the full package. Chris is bring the money to the table and the kid is bringing the fresh items. Between helping Chris with the store and Acu's ,I want to throw my phones and hide far away from the bullshit. Working with Chris ,it's easy and simple because it's just us. If I don't like what he's saying I can easily do what I want and the outcome is better. Chris will have a minor attitude but he normally gets over it within a day or two.

I've been at the shop for the passed two hours straightening up for the opening which I will not be attending. I'm exhausted from working late hours and doing other people's jobs for them. I haven't felt the urge to punch anyone in the face since I was a teen. I'm pushing 27 and I'm a mom, I try to put those days of punching someone in the face then asking questions later behind me. But when dealing incompetent, assholes that brings that urge out and it makes me tired. I just want to go home to eat dinner with my baby. I've put in my work to get this shit done!I don't want to see these people until Monday morning and I'm sure I will be hearing more bullshit.
I hear the bells from the door ring,"Hey pretty lady."Tia says. I'm surprise to see her today. Her work schedule is twice as busy as mine.Tia is constantly on the go ,two phones in her hand answering emails. Freddy owns two condo buildings, one in down Sliver Springs(MD) and the other in L.A. Freddy hired her to be the manger for both places. She will squeeze in coming to New York once or twice a week depending on her schedule.
"What are you still doing here?"I ask while hugging her."My flight doesn't leave until tonight. I'm a free birdie for some hours."Tia looks around the store."Sales will go up when they add the women's line." As of right now it's only men's clothing that will be sold. Chris is still working with a few designers for women's.In a few months they are going to add the ladies line.
I laugh,"Sales will be good either way Tiana." Like many Tia can her positive and negative sides to her personality. She's extremely blunt, says the first thing that comes to her mind, good or bad. But she's also the type who can't handle the bluntness being thrown back at. Tia has worked with clothing companies so she thinks she pretty much knows it all.
"I didn't say that. But you know it will help." She sits down on the ladder beside me, giving me the goggly eyes."What?"
"Bitch don't 'what' me. Give me the details about Joey. Is there a second date or you two only friends? Does he seem like a good guy? Give me the tea."Tia says. I laugh because I avoided calling her on purpose and the only person I told about my date is Sasha.
