•Valeria's POV•

I wake up early and straighten my hair, I put it in a half ponytail and leave a bit of my overgrown bangs hanging out, it looked very sophisticated, I put on some black legging with a yellow long sleeve shirt and a infinity scarf and my light brown high knee leather boots.

"You ready kiddo?", my walks in my room.

"Yes", I grab my phone and earbuds.

"Yes you'll need those it get boring just sitting there putting things in alphabetical order", my dad says and I laugh.

We walk down and I see my mom getting her purse.

"You like my outfit", I say.

"Yes it says young and wild but classy", she jokes and laugh.

"We are gonna go to Starbucks before to get some coffee, what are you gonna want?", my dad asks.

"chai creme frappuccino", I say and he nods.

We go into the car and put my earbuds on to listen to my music when I feel a tap on my shoulder.

"Here", my mom hands me my drink.

"Thank you", I take little sips.

We got at the office at 7:30 and I walked in awkwardly since I didn't know anyone, my brother knew all my parents coworkers because he's came and helped before too.

"Come one Im gonna introduce you to our boss", my mom says and takes my hand.

"Hey Miss Johnson this is my daughter Valeria", my mom says and I chale her hand and say nice to meet you.

"She's here to help me so she could get an experience of the work life", my mom says and they laugh.

"If you're anything like your mom you'll be a natural", she says.

"I have a meeting today I would like you to be there is that ok?", Miss Johnson asks my mom.

"Yes, of course", my mom says.

"And Miss Valeria would you be able to organize my things here I will pay you on your own hours", she asks.

"Yes", I say.

"Ok than, let's get the room ready for the conference, and I'll bring someone in to explain to you how I like my things organized", Miss Johnson says and my mom and her walk out. A couple minutes pass and a young blond haired woman comes in.

"You must be Valeria, All you need to know it she likes things alphabetical order or color coordinated but all these papers have to be alphabetized", she sad and shows me huge 3 stacks of papers.

"You may listen to music with headphones on and please don't touch the computer or the TV or anything else that looks or sends personal to her, all the paper go in the drawers", she says and walks out.

"Thanks", I say even though she's gone already.

"How a great day to spend my Saturday", I say and put on my earbuds and listen to some frank ocean.

-
I've been organizing these papers for an hours and a half and I'm still not done. Out of no where my earbud is taken out of my ear.

"Hey!", I yell and turn around to see a tall guy with a fuck boy haircut and grey skinny jeans and a supreme white shirt.

"Who are you", he asks with an attitude.

"I'm Valeria, my mom and dad both work here Miss Johnson is at a conference with my mom and she asked me to organize her papers, who are you?", I ask.

"Her son", she says and sits on a couch she has in her office.

"Oh ok", I say not really caring.

"My moms coworkers have some real hot daughters", he says and I roll my eyes and put my earbuds on and keep doing what I was doing.

"Listen to me", the guy says.

"Sorry sir I'm doing my job i get your mommy might me the boss but that does not give you the right to be a douche", i say.

"Valerie is it?, I would watch my mouth if I were you", he says.

"First of all my name is not Valerie it's Va-le-ri-a, and second of all why should I? It's not like I'm permanently working here", I say.

"Still I can get your parents fired", he says and smirks and I roll my eyes.

"Please just let me do my job so I can get my cash and go out with my friends", I say and keep organizing.

-
Another hour and a half later I finish organizing and my mom and Miss Johnson walk in.

"Finally I've been waiting for you, I need cash", the guy says.

"Briar did you meet, Valeria", Miss Johnson says.

"Yes, no money please", he says.

"Did he introduce yourself?", she asks me and I shake my head she nudges him "manners Briar", she says.

"I'm briar Johnson nice to meet you Valeria", he says and turns to her.

"Here don't spend it all in an hours", she hands him 5 hundred dollar bills.

I help my mom the rest of the time but it was just making her schedule for the month and also making my dad's schedule.

"Sweetheart the boss wants to see you", my dad.

"I wonder why everything was in alphabetical order", I say.

"Probably to pay you in cash since you just made a couple hours", my mom says and I get up and walk to her office.

"You asked for me miss Johnson?", I ask.

"Sit down sweetie, and don't call my Miss Johnson your mom had a habit of calling me that call me faith", she says and I sit in a chair in front of her desk.

"Sorry faith", I say.

"Sweetheart I can tell you are a well respected young woman with good manners nothing like my boy briar", she says and I kind chuckle.

"And we have a dinner party to attend on Monday at five I was gonna ask you kindly if you can be my sons escort", she asks.

"I don't think he is to fond of me", I shrug.

"Oh Valeria you think I care he has to be seen you someone young, beautiful and with manners you fit that description", she says.

"I don't know?", I say.

"I'll pay you 500 dollars cash and give your parents a little raise", she says.

"Deal", I say and we shake hands.

"And here is for today, I'll have a dress send to you tomorrow with your mom just right your sizes here shoes too", she says and hand me a note book and a envelope.

"It's a one time thing right?", I ask.

"Yes", she was and I right my sizes.
