The Family Man

Chapter 3

I have always hated Mondays, I would wake up extremely tired and it was even worse with a baby. Last night Emily refused to go to bed she was up until two and I finally put her down she started crying again. She was up for another two hours taunting me I wanted to cry so much and rip put my hair. When she fell asleep it was almost five am I was beat. I closed my eyes and slept and then the phone alarm went off.

"Great just great." I whispered sarcastically to myself.

Emily had awoken by the time Brandy came. My skin was pale and I looked like I was suffering inwardly I had dark circles under my eyes. I put on a small amount of make up to hide the dark circles kissed Emily and left.

"I am so tired." I said to myself and yawned. I put my head on my desk and before I knew it I was asleep shutting the world out. I felt someone tugging my hair and poking me. This shithead is about to get their ass whooped. I slowly lifted my head and saw Mary Ann smiling broadly at me. I can't whoop her she is too nice.

"Good morning." I yawned and stretched.

"Well good morning to you too. What made you so tired?" She smirked. I could be rude and tell her I had sex from last night until six this morning. That would surely taint my good girl image that I had.

"My daughter tortured me from last night until 5 this morning." I said before yawning again.

"What's her name I know its Emily but what's the rest?" She smiled. Don't you have things to do other than ask me about my kid? I dismissed the rude reply.

"Emily Kate Jo- Bake," Which last name should I use? She was waiting for me to finish when a voice made us both jump.

"Cassabelle my office now." Ethan roared.

Oh shit, oh shit just my luck can this day be any worse first Emily now him. Does anyone have a gun? Mary Ann walked away with pity in her eyes and I was scared shitless. I slowly made my way to his office wondering what was wrong. You're signing your death warrant. I opened the door and stepped inside and closed it behind me. Am I going to get fired I thought I did everything he asked of me. I stood my hands sweating. Like the first time he didn't acknowledge my presence.

"Sir..."I trailed off.

"What do you want Cassabelle?" He looked up at me and I cringed at the name I have always hated it.

"You called me inside here." I was confused now.

"No I didn't. Are you hearing things?" He looked at me even more confused. I stood there I swear he had called me in here. I drummed my fingers on my thigh. He has a personality disorder.

"Is there something you want?" He asked me.

Yea for you to kiss my ass. I smiled at my thought and he looked puzzled. I turned to leave and he stopped me.

"I need to know where you are at all times. Even if it's the bathroom." He was stern.

Creepy much. Maybe he wants to watch me squeeze out breast milk. I smiled even wider and he looked even more confused. "Okay Sir." I left his office and sat on my desk replying to emails sending off files and typing letters. The intercom came on.

"Cassabelle please report to my office now." He said.

I remember how I had gotten into a fight at school and hid and the principal did the same thing. I was punished I fractured a boys leg and his arm. He was asking for it he had called Amy a slut multiple times and pushed her around. I had to take charge I beat the shit out of him I ended up with a black eye.
