Saved By The One & Only

Simply Here to Work

"Alright, Ms. Foster I think it's time she comes along with me."

I faltered at his words, and quickly looked around to make sure no one noticed. To my advantage they both did not seem to even notice I was there. Thankfully I stepped back but was immediately stopped, when I bumped into someone who dropped a stack of folders to the ground.

I immediately dropped to the ground to help her pick up the folders when I noticed she didn't drop to the ground with me. As I rose to hand her the folders, she stood there waiting for me with her arms crossed over her chest. Not only that, but she had a glare while staring at me directly in the face.

"Here you go" I said.

I was expecting her to say something when all she did was reach her hand out and snatch the folders from me and walked away. I opened my mouth as if to say something, and then closed it immediately remembering that I need this job. I'm not about to let it go all because of a mishap over some folders. I turn my attention towards Mikayla and Mr. Anderson who may have seemed to not notice what just happened. I decided to stand there quietly and re-read my notes that I've taken.

"Follow me Ms. Monroe." He states very cold.

I immediately began to think of what I did wrong, when I finally arrived to the conclusion. That I did nothing wrong, I scrunch my face in distaste and right before I begin to dissolve my face I hear.

"Something you need to get off your chest Ms. Monroe?" Once again stated with such distaste and coldness within his words.

How did he know? When he didn't even look back at me? Whatever answer him Amy! I yell at myself and decide to make a mental note that I need help, like serious help.

"Um no, no sir." I replied.

We enter his office and he motions for me to take a seat. I gladly take the seat, and begin to make a new section to take notes on behalf of his orientation.

"Before I begin Ms. Monroe I must advise you of one thing before you officially become apart of this team." He states.

"Yes? Sir?" I question as I begin to lift my head up to look him straight in the eye.

"I do not tolerate disrespect in this building, are we clear Ms. Monroe?" He stared straight into my eyes with such coldness hidden within them.

All I could do was nod my head, once having finished nodding my head I tried so hard to move my eyes from him but I couldn't. I couldn't move my eyes away from his as if he had this hold on me. As he peered through my eyes I stared into those ocean blue eyes. They seemed so cold, desolate, and I couldn't help but wonder what made them that way. I realized a few seconds passed by and I knew that I must look away but I simply could not, no matter how hard I tried his hold on me was so strong only a knock at the door broke it apart.

"Sir, you have an unexpected visitor here" Mikayla stated.

I took that moment into my advantage to look away as fast as I could, only to feel out of breath once having looked away. I gathered my thoughts as I stared down at my notebook and pretended to gather my notes together when in reality I was trying to gather my emotions which were scattered all over the floor.

"Whom ever it is can wait, I'm in the middle of something." He snapped at Mikayla, which made me feel bad for her.

"My apologies sir, but it's Ms. Forbes sir. She says she will not leave until she sees y-" She began to finish when she was abruptly shoved into the door by a woman.
