The Bet

Chapter 3- Jerk

Carly Grasland POV

"Yes but if you prefer i go with somebody else i will".  He looked at me with one eyebrow chocked up with his head to the side.

"NO NO thank you". I quickly got up to my feet. He grabbed my hand and shook it.

"There is this one thing though you never to be late". He gives me  a cold stare.

I looked at him once more before turning around and walking out the door. One second your nice the nice hes giving me this cold glare that could make anyone jump.

I shook it off and headed towards the last door to run up stairs to have lunch with Latina.  When I reached her desk she was just finishing up.

"Im almost done just making the last follow up with the Johnson account". She typed away at her computer. I took the time to look around the office. It was very nice row of different offices lined up for the important bosses and then on the outside is nothing but desks side by side.

One door caught my attention being as though Mr Reed was coming out laughing and talking with the guy from earlier. When the guy stepped out I read the door. Stan Parsely on it.

"OK im ready".

I looked over to see her already by my side ready to head to lunch.

When we was out the front entrance we crossed the street to this little diner place.

"I love coming here every chance I get they have the most wonderful food and also alot of others from work comes here. She opened the door for me to enter and I accepted.

"You go find us a table and ill order". She lefted to go to the front to order.

I finally fount us a table on the far end next to the window. I was in deep thought we I felt somebody eyes on me.

I looked over to see none other then my boss himself staring at me. I looked away quickly and looked outside nothing interesting was going on but it felt weird that he was looking at me.

I looked back at him to notice him coming right to me.

"Ah Miss Grasland I was hoping to see you again I have change of plans you would need to start after lunch." I looked up at him wide eyed. What the hell this guy getting at I dont even know the basics and he wants me to start today.

"Woah Mr Reed sir I cant start today I promised my grandmother I would come over and help her with her garden I didnt even know I was getting a job today and I already made plans" I stood up to protest.

"Are you telling me a garden is more important then your job?" There he goes again cocking his eyebrow up and turning his head to the side.

"No sir but -" I started but was soon stopped.

He helded his hands to my lips .

"NO buts". I jumped at his sudden outburst. 

"Yes sir I can ask her can I come over a-another day". I sturred.

With that he turnt to leave and headed towards his table. What a jerk I thought.

"What was that all about?" Tina walked towards the table and sat the meal down which was two burgers and fries and two big cups of soda.

"He says I have to start after lunch". 

"So soon?" she asked.

I had told her about getting the job on our walk across the street. 

"Yes i guess so and now i have to cancel on grandma". I felt bad not being able to help my grandma with her garden her new husband is always working and she need more help around the house.

I hung up the phone sad at my grandma voice. We was done eatting now and heading back to work. Latina and I said our goodbyes.

When I got to Mr Reeds office he was sitting at his desk on the phone talking. I waited til he was done.

Ugh what a jerk i thought again.
