I let out a sigh of exhaustion after walking in to the apartment and closing the door behind me.
Work flew by in a blur once Mr. Anderson left to go with that woman who knows where. Mikayla finished the rest of the tour for him and by the end of the day I pretty much was caught up with the orientation.
Once having finished the orientation she set me up to file records of transactions with previous companies, to see how I did with that portion. I couldn't help but notice how every one had a Mac computer on their assigned office's. And I hated how I felt a little jelly at the fact that they had such expensive computers JUST for work. I quickly waved off the notion and focused on the task at hand. Once having finished fairly quickly I double checked my work before approaching her for another task. She stared at me with shocked eyes and once she had checked my work she stated how much Mr. Anderson would like my fast work ethic. She then instructed me to familiarize myself with the office that will soon be mine and to register on the computer. Once having registered she instructed me to add all of Mr. Anderson's appointments to my calendar on the computer and also to my phone. Although she felt bad once I had informed her that my phone did not enough enough space to add events to my calendar. I couldn't help but notice a quick sense of pity for me, she quickly dismissed the look but not without going noticed. She quickly changed the subject just to make sure I was updated with the upcoming appointments and events. She began explaining to me what some of appointments were about like private investors, and also what some of the events consisted of which were mainly charity events, galas, and etc. After experiencing that crippling moment she left me alone to finish inserting the appointments and events to my calendar and soon after she came back to advise me that it was time for lunch. I quickly turned her down after she offered to have lunch with her across the street at deli place. I mentally cursed at myself once again for only having one bag of chips to eat "for lunch." As I mentally reminded myself that I needed to start preparing more for lunch I walked over to the lounge and quickly ate my chips and frowned once I heard my stomach grumble again signaling me that the bag of chips weren't enough. I quickly returned to my desk to finish my assignment. After lunch was over Mikayla came over to check up on me and asked me how lunch was and I stated it was fine, and after asking her the same follow up question she began to ask me what I ate to see if maybe she could treat me to lunch tomorrow. I quickly diverted the subject by explaining to her that I had finished all of my work and was ready for more. She immediately caught the hesitancy and decided to not act on it, instead she guided me over to another filing cabinet that needed some more filing using the same method as the last one. Eventually time had flown by and by the time I finished, Mikayla told me to focus on getting used to my computer and making sure I understand the programs with the remaining 30 minutes left.
Before I knew it, it was time to go and I couldn't help but feel a little relieved that I had survived the day. I enjoyed the calmness of getting on the bus after the day I had and just enjoyed the ride all the way home...
I finished taking off my clothes and decided to take another shower to help melt the stress away.
After what felt like an eternity in the shower I decided it was time to get out and get on with the rest of my day. As I'm putting on a white spaghetti strap shirt with faded blue jean shorts and to match I decide to wear some white flip flops I couldn't help but smirk at how I matched my outfit perfectly well and finally decided on going with a high ponytail since it was really hot today.
I walked over to the mirror to check myself out and focus on how red my cheeks were which only goes to prove I forgot to turn on the air conditioner. I walked out of my room and walked over to the air conditioner and set the thermostat to 65 degrees hoping it will get chilly throughout the apartment pretty soon. Only then I begin to hear my stomach rumble and having noticed that I hadn't eaten much since this morning which seems like it was ages ago.
As I walked over to the fridge to see what I could possibly make myself to eat in the mean time until Mia comes home, I noticed that we barely have anything to eat. A wave of depression falls over me as I remember that the last time we ate a full dinner at home was the day I got let go from the electronic store and that was a few days ago.
I stood there contemplating on whether or not calling Mia to see if she would be coming home anytime soon and finally short after I decided against it... I didn't want to stress her out even more with this new job therefore I would rather just wait for her to come home and then we'd order something. As soon as I receive the last paycheck from my old job I'd be able to pay the rent, the bills, and I should have enough to buy some groceries to hold us for the next few days until my paycheck from this new job arrives.
I set out on picking my outfit for tomorrow, to simply decide on a pair of nude pants, with a white long sleeved top with a ruffle at the bottom of the shirt, complimented with my regular black flats to go with my black purse. I decided on writing down the future appointments for Mr. Anderson on my home calendar just to play it safe and once having finished that I decided to lay down for a few.
I couldn't help but think about the days ahead of me and how they would play out with such an intense man. He was so intense yet not intimidating enough to scare me away. Although I can admit one thing to myself in the total privacy of my head where no one can hear my thoughts and that happens to be that he is one good looking specimen. I couldn't help myself from admiring his hard rock solid body, or how stunning he looked in his suit today, or better yet how impeccably masculine he sounds as if he could take charge of a whole battalion, if asked to. I quickly realized how deep my thoughts were being concentrated on him and couldn't help but feel the slightest blush creep up on my cheeks. Simply there, not hiding nor too revealing... just there... as if announcing to me that this is only just the beginning. I quickly waved those thoughts away and could only hope that my days are filled with busy work so that my work hours can fly by and my mind can be fully distracted from Him....
I don't remember how, or even when I fell asleep but what drove me to wake up was the annoying feeling that I had to use the bathroom to pee. I slowly got up and trailed to the bathroom half asleep and when I walked outside of my bathroom, only then I realized how dark it was outside. I figured it would at least be 10pm but when I check the time on my alarm clock, my eyes almost jumped out of my sockets only to see that it is 2:37am. I was so shocked and so lost, I took a glance and remembered that I had not changed out of my clothing from earlier. After having changed out of my afternoon clothes and into my pj's I contemplated on actually stepping out of my room to check on Mia, but eventually I looked down only to see my body moving towards my bed. As if magnets, pulling each other from both ends. I settled in, but before getting comfortable I made sure to text Mia and tell her that I was sorry for not staying awake until she came home but promising her tomorrow we'd have a chance to catch up. I hooked up my phone to charge and made sure my alarm was set, and settled in to get cozy. I could feel the sleepiness returning, ready to take me at any moment and the last thing I remember was wondering what the day ahead would bring me.
