Saved By The One & Only

What Do You Want From Me?

After his final statement the girls decided to scream like little girls who have just received their favorite birthday gift.

"Where are you going?" Mikayla questions me, while calming down from her laugh and clearly noticing me packing up my things to go.

"Well I still have work to finish and then I would like to start on the financial matters for this task." I say to her while standing up.

"But we've been pardoned, which means you can stay here and help us come up with ideas for the gala." Violet states as a matter of fact.

I chuckle.

"I know Violet, but I truly do like to finish what I've started. Give me an hour and I promise I will be back here with enough time to have a few hours to brainstorm on ideas. " I say in hopes of trying to reason with them.

"Alright." Mikayla says not sounding convinced.

I smile at them a sweet smile and they giggle while turning back to their notes as I walk out of the conference room.

I head straight to my office and once inside I decide to check my phone just in case my mother has texted me and I happen to come across two messages from Mia.

Mia:

"Amy please respond, we need to talk."

Mia:

"At least let me know that you're okay."

I quickly decide to send her a message saying that I am okay.

I toss my phone back into my bag and decide to focus on my work.

***********

Before I realize it I have finished both my work for the day along with the work for the gala.

I even decided to go the extra mile and add an extra page to the finance catalog regarding the finances for the money that will be donated to charity.

I hope the girls don't mind that I went along and finished my portion without taking their notes. It's better for me to make trial paper and let them edit wherever they need to edit so I can know what I did wrong.

I get up from my desk as I gather my things and head towards Mr. Anderson's office to drop off the work I finished.

As I am walking I begin organizing my folders and papers in order and when I reach the office door I grab it without failing to realize I had forgotten to knock.

As I enter his office I lift my head as if to tell him that I am finished on the assignment when I notice Caroline sitting on his lap staring at me with a nasty glare.

He clears his throat just as Caroline speaks.

"Don't you know how to knock?" She says with disgust in her words.

I quickly turn around and head straight for the door, while ignoring his request to stay.

Just as I head out of the door I happen to catch the last few words of their conversation which entailed Caroline complaining about why he wants me to stay.

I scurry on while shaking my head at how stupid I was to forget to knock.

I drop off the work I finished with his personal assistant and asked her if she could hand them to him personally.

As I walk in the conference room Mikayla and Violet squeal with glee and almost run me over as they speak so fast and at the same time at how they've figured out what theme of the gala should be.
