"Mr Osborn how are you feeling today?" I asked in a hushed tone.
You see, ever since that conversation with Harry I haven't spoken to him or even saw him; in person that is. All I see if him now is a picture of him on the cover of a magazine with a new girl on his arm every other weekend. I decided that the best way to get over him was to get a job. I didn't think that the job I would get would be working for the boy I loves dad.
I heard a rumbling cough and then a voice replied; echoing around the room. " I'm alright today Rebecca, any news on the company today?"
It pained me inside to know that this poor man who had everything he wanted in life was slowly dying and there was nothing anyone could do. Every scientist he knew had been trying to find a way to keep him alive but nothing seemed to be working.
You may have heard of Doctor Kurt Conners. He tried to save Mr Osborn, and almost succeeded, but then used his work to turn all of New York City into a town of giant killing lizards. It wasn't good. So now all of his projects that could have possibly saved my boss' life are non-existent.
"Not today sir, everything seems to be going fine," I said whilst looking through the files I was given about the companies growth.
"You look rather nice today dear, going somewhere special?" He asked giving me a weak smile. I returned the gesture and smiled back. This man meant a lot to me. I don't know what I would do without him.
"No sir, just an average day," although I wish it wasn't. Rumours were spreading that Harry Osborn was returning to see his father before he passed away and I was terrified that I was going to see him again.
"You and my son would make a rather lovely couple, you know. You've never met the boy before though, have you?"
Mr Osborn's disease sometimes made him forget things that happened a long time ago hence why he can't remember the fact I once was extremely close to his only son. If only he realised that part of me still loved him.
I let out a small laugh before I explained to Mr Osborn "I have to go now, I'm going to Oscorp to check everything is going as usual."
He let out a small sigh but nodded. "Thank you Rebecca, for everything."
