Hollow

BAHAMAS

I stared at my phone for a long period of time , thinking to myself " should I answer this ?" I was very hesitant. I would click the answer button and put it on Speaker " Ms Hollow" I would hear my bosses voice ring out " Ms Montez , hi sorry I didn't know it was you" I would say shocked , she usually contacts me on her work phone I was shocked to hear her voice. " yeah this is my personal .. look I need you to head to the airport right away and meet me here bring your laptop and work things with you" for a second I was confused but maybe she wanted me to work with her there before her flight left out. I would hang up grabbing my computer bag , throwing some jeans and a tshirt and my kegs and head out the door. As I got out of my taxi I would notice a black truck ahead and paid no mind to it, I would step out and grab my things and before I could even pay the man , a security guard came to the driver side and asked and paid the fair. My eyes would widen and look to see Ms Montez coming out of the truck.

As I walked over to her she would annoyingly roll her eyes as she spoke on the phone " look... I don't care im not interested in nothing you have to say to me woman , least you can do is just be ready whenever I come home" I would look down at my phone as if I wasn't paying any attention to her words , it was shocking ,how can she speak to her girlfriend or who ever that was like that , was it the lady from yesterday? Or what , then again it wasn't any of my business. " Ms Hollow , you ready for this flight?" and I swear to you my ears just started ringing at the words that were coming from her lips. " flight?" asking as if I had a deaf moment " yes flight , your coming with me for the week .. I need you to be here on hand this is a major move for the company , there is a resort in the Bahamas that wants to use our menu". She would say and in that moment I was ticked off " so , you decide you want to drag me with you? , you told me that you wanted me to come with my laptop and work things not once did you say anything about me bringing bags , do you see any damn bags in my hand other than a goddamn laptop bag? Like who do you think I am ? I don't wash my ass? And another damn thing you don't think I have a life? Im a twenty three year old single lesbian are you dumb?" I couldn't stop myself from going off I had enough, who does that to someone? Why would you go and basically not put in any effort to let someone know you are taking them out of the country and what if I didn't keep my paper works on me at all times how the hell would I leave ?. before she could even say a word I walked away " now I see why people cant stand working for you , you have no consideration for anyone but your damn self , you cant even talk to your woman right" I would say. I knew that this was an opportunity of a life time but I was not going to let this woman take over my personal time.

One minute I was getting a cab and the next I was in first class , I know what your thinking " how did you get into the plane" lets rewind. I would get into the cab and drive off, my phone would ring and to my surprise it was Ms. Montez " yes" I replied sharply " you might want to turn that cab around" she would state , " you still don't understand do you? I QUIT!" I would scream out " I understand that .." she replied and I was stuck " what?" I was confused on what was happening at that time " I understand you quit and that's fine but doesn't mean im going to let you quit , ive been looking for a new assistant forever that had enough balls to tell me things how it is and now that I have one im not letting you go , now can you please I'm asking nicely make that man turn that cab around.. don't worry about clothes ill set it up" she would state and I would sigh. This woman is crazy how could she just be so calm and you mean to tell me that this was a test in itself ? so if I just went along would she have fired me once we came back ? this is utterly ridiculous. A strong sigh would come from me as I told the cab driver to return and then again the security paid the fair , and I felt bad for that but I was really ready to head home.

That is how I ended up in first class , TADA .. placing a blanket over my self I would turn my back away from where she sat and act as if I was asleep. She would be looking down at her ipad in one hand and paper work in the other. " I don't get it still " she would sigh and place the files down " what do they mean they want me to experience the magic of it all" she asked herself and I would huff and quickly turn my body around. " they mean do not show up as a business woman and actually show up as a tourist , have to experience see what the guest see , feel what they feel and understand the magic of the resort" I huffed and rolled my eyes rolling back over to my fake sleep.
