It's Sad to Belong

It's Sad to Belong || How it all started.

This is from doodles. In doodles this is like 3 chapters already. I just combine them all here. Since it end up as a multi-chapter. I don't proof read.

Chapter One

As James enters the office, he can't help but admire the spaciousness and cleanliness of the place. Everyone seems to be organized and so professional. A man approaches him and offers to shake his hand.

"Goodmorning. You're James, I assume?"

"Yes. Goodmorning. Nice to meet you.
And you are?"

"I'm Henson Lee. I'm one of the associates in this firm. Welcome."

"Oh, nice to meet you, Henson."

"Let's go ahead and see Luis Hontiveros, the head of the firm. He wants to see you before you start your day. Shall we?"

"Okay."

"Goodmorning. You must be James?" Luis asked.

"Yes, sir. It's nice to meet you."

"Okay. I'll leave you two alone. I have phone calls to return." Henz said.

Luis nods at Henz.

"So how do you like the place?"

"I love it. It's big."

Luis looks at him and laughs.

"Okay. So your office will be down the hall. Use today to familiarize with the new settings and try to get to know your colleagues. You'll be working closely with them soon enough".

"Okay, sir. I will. Thank you."

James finds his office at the end of the hall. It is definitely bigger than the office he had in Cebu. It is well-lit and well-organized. He sits down and looks around, trying to make himself comfortable.

After a few minutes he gets up and starts unpacking his box. He has brought some personal items from home.

He brought three picture frames: a photo of him and Ericka on their wedding day, a picture of Sibelle, and a picture of them three as a family. He put the pictures on his desk, along with other items. Then someone knocks at the door..

"Come in."

"Hi. I'm Nadine. Nadine Lustre. My office is right next to yours. I just wanted to welcome you to our firm."

Nadine Lustre is a lawyer like James. She has been with the firm for almost two years now.

She is the youngest lawyer there. She was offered the job as soon as she graduated from law school. Not only is she intellectually gifted, but she is also charismatic, sexy, beautiful and physically flawless.

Men are always and constantly drawn to her. She is like a goddess and she knows it.

Unlike James, Nadine is single. She doesn't have a husband or a boyfriend.

She is the kind of woman who hates relationships and commitments. She wants to have fun but with no strings attached.

Nadine walks a few steps closer to shake James's hand.

"Again, welcome. If you need anything I'll be right next door," Nadine says and flashes James a seductive smile.

"Thanks. I will."

James watches her as she walks away. His eyes unintentionally wander around and focus on her ass; her perfectly round ass. Even with formal attire, Nadine still manages to look sexy, and whatever she wears, she always seems to find a way to show off her assets. James scolds himself for looking.
