The Double Life (Miniminter FF)

Chapter 6

I arrived at the bosses office at about 6 am. I'm about 10 minutes early to see him and knowing him, he would be about 10 minutes late so, I took a seat on the chair next to his door. Despite us doing this for a side job the boss is a CEO of some private business company that does something that no one cares about until they need it or have it and considering how well his business has been doing for the years that I have known him its more of a common problem than people think.

While I was questioning why squirrels can't burp or vomit and pondering on how tall the colorless penguin could have been, the boss showed up. I looked at the time on my phone 6:30. "You're late again boss. You said the next time it happened you would give me a month off," I said to him hoping he remembers and I can have more time to have a social life... Not that I have much of one anyway. 

"I think you're wrong there  Sleezebag, you just got here at least 20 minutes early and you're lucky that I even showed up this early, so go back to work.... After your month off starting when you leave here today," the boss said while giving me a smile and unlocking the door.

I tried so hard to not celebrate for my month off and instead smiled from the named he called me and thanked him while getting up and taking the stuff to his office. I set the bag down on his desk and took a seat in the chair in front of it. He moves the bag to face him and opens it examining the money before taking a wad of it out and testing it to make sure it was the real deal. He did that for about 30 minutes to different wads before being satisfied with the money he grabbed a wad and tossed it to me.

"Here, that is your bonus for making this delivery, along with your paycheck, that is waiting for you at the front desk. Your next delivery will be sent to you after your break, I'll even extend it another week for the good work you have been doing recently alright." He said while warming up his computer getting ready for his work day, "Now get out of my office I have enough to do today without this side stuff being added to it." He pushed his hair back and looked at me.

"Yes sir, thank you s-sir," I stuttered a little because of what he gave me, another week off and a wad of the cash! The delivery must have made his week better than I thought it would have. I put the money in my other bag and walked out of his office and headed over to the front desk to get my check and it was there but behind a rude employee who doesn't know how to keep her mouth shut.

"The boss sent me here to get a paycheck?" I asked questioningly because if I just straight up asked her then it would lead to a shitstorm. She handed it to me with a death glare look, probably because of how much more I get paid compared to her and I don't work in the building and left the building with the biggest smile on my face.

I grabbed my Costa and went straight to work knowing I still have a normal job to get to and wished for the day to be over soon. It was my lunch break when I decided to go out for lunch instead of eating in the cafe here like normal. I was walking around Westfield deciding what to eat for lunch when I hear someone calling my name. I glance around and see an old friend of mine. 

His name is Callum and he has brown hair and green eyes and is about the same height as me, maybe a bit taller. We go way back to secondary school and stopped talking so much when uni came around, I haven't seen him since. "Jesse! It's so nice to see you again," he said while coming in for a hug. 

"It's been too long Cal we need to get together again sometime. What brings you to Westfield today?" 

"I was out filming a video when I saw you walking past! I kinda left my friend in the dust while trying to catch up to you," Cal said while rubbing the back of his neck and looking around for his friend. He quickly spots him and waves over. "Same to you missy what brings you outside for once?"
