Augustine fumed as he saw the papers scattered across his desk. He stood from his spacious desk, and swung open the door of his office. His caramel eyes scanned the office space, before they landed on his personal assistant. Her blue eyes lit up in fear, and she scrambled to her feet. She rushed in his direction, and said, "Mr. Ramirez is there something I can help you with?"
"Si, Emily. Have Ms. Trisha come to my office at this moment," he said storming back into office. He couldn't believe that he had hired that woman. He expected her to be on her A game, but instead she hadn't done anything correctly.

Moments later there was a soft knock on the door. Augustine yelled loudly for the person to come in. He heard the soft taps of her heels on the floor, before he saw her. She came into view, and his anger faltered for a second. Her black dress was molded to her body, and her burgundy hair cascaded down her shoulders. Her lips were adorned in red lipstick, that complemented her caramel skin. Her lovely fragrance filled the room, causing he to inhale her scent involuntarily. He smiled for a split second before a frown graced his face. Her eyebrows furrowed before her face went back to showing no emotion.

Trisha took this time to look over her boss. He had been so rude to her since the day that she got hired. He expected her to come in and be on top of everything, like his old Business Administrator didn't slack on the job. The last administrator embezzled some money from the company, and left it in shambles. Even though he was rude to her, Trisha couldn't help but admire his handsome features. His normally clean cut beard was stubbly from the stress on the job. He wore a nice gray suit that was sculpted to his nice body. Looking around his office, she noticed picture frames that adorned the mantle behind his head. She smiled at how lit up his eyes were in the pictures with a little girl that resembled him. Looking back at him, his caramel eyes bore into hers, but she didn't turn away.

Causing her to jump a little, Augustine stood from his desk. She quickly recovered and asked in an angelic voice, "You called for me, Mr. Ramirez?"
"You're here so obviously i did."
"What can I help you with sir?"
"Look at these papers. They're not organized like I asked. How am I supposed to go into a budget meeting, not even knowing what i'm supposed to me talking about," Trisha looked down at his desk confused. She picked up one of the papers on the desk, and said, "Sir, I have no clue where you retrieved those papers from, but those are the ones that I left for you." Reaching into the dropbox on his desk, she pulled out a folder that was collated, color-coded, and highlighted everything that he needed to know. He flipped through the folder, and a small smile toyed at his lips, but he quickly stifled it.
