Hassle

Contact

"The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed."
~ Carl Jung

Wednesdays were never fun, your body is tired of waking up at the crack of dawn, and you drag yourself through the day.
But luckily I wasn't one of the many people who hated their job so I tolerated it.

I dressed quickly and prepared breakfast for Michael and myself.
Shortly after I put the batter in, he came down the stairs dressed in an all black suit and I had to try my best not to drool.

"Good morning, Adesina"
"Morning Michael"
"Waffles?" His eyebrows raised in excitement.
"Yup"

Once we began eating, I decided to bring up how our day would go.
"So are you going to be around me at all times during the day, or just kind of hovering throughout the building?"
"More than likely a mixture of both, I don't have to be with you all day long but I won't hover too far from wherever you may be."
I nodded, "I don't have a problem with you being around me, I just hope you don't get too bored"
He chuckled.
"I'll have someone give you a tour of the building so you don't get lost or anything. I would do it myself but things are very hectic currently, as the show is merely two days away."
"I understand"

After we finished eating, I grabbed my bag and we were out the door.
Since Michael was here he would also be my driver, so Bill had some time off for now.

We made it to the building in no time, and I got one of my staff members to start the tour with Michael before I made my way to my office.

Just as I had sat down there was a knock upon my door.
"Come in!" I called.
"Ms. Fox" Cory, my personal assistant, came in with a giant smile.
"Oh, some good news?"
"Yes" he beamed. "We finally have our performer for Friday."
"Great who'd you get"
"Prince!"

"No way really?" I was super excited now.
"Yes, his people contacted us, and he is on his way over here now, to meet with you to discuss details."
"Well that's great, have him meet me in the conference room on the floor below us and notify me when he arrives."
"Yes ma'am" with that he sped away.

I was surprised that he would even want to do this, didn't seem like his forte.
I wouldn't call myself a fan of his, but there were a few songs of his that I loved, especially Joy In Repetition.

A few moments later there was another knock on my door and I notified the person that they could enter.
Michael came in and I thoroughly enjoyed checking him out for what had to be the fifth time today.

"How was your tour?" I asked once he reached my desk.
"It was nice. This building is huge and I'll probably still get lost, but it's beautiful really."
We shared a laugh before there was yet another knock.
Cory poked his head in only to say, "he's here" and then he disappeared again.

"Oh good, come on" I grabbed Michael's hand out of excitement and rushed us to the elevator.
"Who's here?"
"You'll see" I snickered.
"Alright" he laughed.

Once we made it out the elevator I brought him into the conference room.
There Prince sat, dressed to the nines, looking finer than fine.
He glanced down at my hand in Michaels before meeting my eyes.
I quickly dropped Michael's hand and walked over to Prince to shake his.
