The Life Of Jane

Blood and Power

Jane's POV

I got to work by 7:30am, and I knew quite well that I was late. But I felt a sudden pain in my abdomen and immediately I rushed to the bathroom to puke, I barged into the bathroom without even checking if it was male or female. On entering I saw two men at the far left and the looked like the members of the board I saw the other day, they were both conversing..

" I'm not giving my vote for that ship yard at Ohio unless Harvey's agree to increase my share on it, double the amount though " one of them said. I stood there froze and dazed

" ME too, I heard father and son are really after it, cause their diamonds hidden underneath the shipyard " the other man said.

I couldn't even move, first of I'm in the men's bathroom and second of I'm eavesdropping on their conversation, before I could turn around to walk away gently one of them saw me.

"hey miss, what are you doing in the men's bathroom? "

"I'm sorry, I didn't check before entering.. My apologies "

I ran off immediately to the opposite direction, that was exactly where the ladies bathroom was located. Finally I could empty my bowel and feel good once more. *phew *

I started my work for the day, although my mind wasn't on work today, I just had to do it in order to impress Mr Steve Harvey and as well support my family.

I was working on my PC when John worked in, I was surprised to see him. He looked cute in his leather jacket and trousers, I was lost in his eyes as well. He noticed that and immediately spoke up, "hi Jane "

"hey John, good morning and how was your night?

Trying my best to be polite to him even though I was infuriated.

"it was OK, I guess. Nothing interesting happened in my dreams "

*we both laughed *

" so what will you be working on today? "he continued

"I'm reviewing the companies stock exchange worth "

"oh that's good "

"ummmm... Looks like you came over to check on your dad, yeah? "

" not at all "* laughs *

"I work here "

"are you serious? Wow! That's cool "

"yeah, sort of " *rolls his eyes *

"why? "

"well, as the next in command * laughs out loud * or will I say.. managing director, I oversee every activity in the company and give back a report to my dad, then he reviews it and makes needed suggestion. That's all, yeah.. Oh yeah, he also makes research on some ways to improve the company's outlook. I mean the way outsiders or investors view us.

"that is actually cool " I said.

" yeah, I know right. But very tedious so you know " he said.

"I get that totally "

* a minute silence *

" so.. Hope you're enjoying your job here? " he said

"well.. Yeah.. Kinda "

"it's just that I'm not in a right mood today "

"why.. What's wrong? "

"my mom is in the hospital and.. " *sighs *
