~Rosella~

I'm in Aiden's car, he's giving me a ride as Emily took my car. He pulled up at the front of my house and bringing the gentleman that he is, he also walked me to the doorstep.

When we reached the front door we heard loud music which was definitely coming from inside. I rang the doorbell bell but no use Emma couldn't hear the bell.

"You have a party going in there?" Aiden asked looking amused.
"No actually it's my friend Emma she is uncontrollable sometimes." I took out my key and opened the door.

When we stepped inside we saw a pizza lying on the couch, there wer coke cans on the floor and Emma was dancing. Her back was facing us so she didn't see us and continued to dance and sing loudly along the song.

"Well you're friend here is quite a dancer I see." Aiden said smiling at Emma.
"Yeah I have to keep up with this madness everyday."

I took the remote of the music system and turned down the volume.

"WHAT THE FUC-" she turned around and was shocked to find us standing behind her.

"What's going on here?" I asked crossing my hands to have a tougher look.
She smiled to show her innocence and told "didn't thought you'll come early."

"If I would have been anymore late I would have found all the neighbors coming up and complaining about the loud music." She just gave me a innocent smile.

"Who's he?"
"This is Aiden and Aiden this is my friend Emma." I introduced both of them.

"You've got a beautiful roommate." He took Emma's hand and kissed her knuckles.

"Thanks you aren't bad yourself." She smiled.

"Looks like you are quite a dancer." He grinned at her. "No I am not." She blushed.

WHAT! Emma is blushing!
I have like never seen her get nervous. I think I need to take advantage of this.

I looked at both of them they were just starting at each other.

"Ahm" I broke the silence. " I am tired so I'll go to sleep now."

"I should get going too" Aiden said ruffling his hair with his hand.

"thanks for the ride." He just smiled in return and said his goodbyes then went out of the front door.

"So someone's nervous" I teased Emma.
" I was not nervous...it's was just..um-"

"Now don't make excuses you gawking at him" by now I was laughing loudly like crazy by looking at her face. She was beet red.

And there came a pillow flying at my face. Stop teasing me. I did the same and threw another pillow that was beside me. And this time she went to her room saying " I wasn't gawking at anyone".

Usually it's Emma who always troubles me saying that I'm a easy target but now when I have a chance to do the same then why not enjoy it.

After changing I went to my comfy bed for a long peaceful sleep as tomorrow is Sunday that means I can sleep for longer.

~Time skip to monday~

Today is gonna be challenging. I am driving to the Jones Corporation for my first day of work. I reached there almost 40 mins early so that I can see around and get to know better about my new working place. And after all I am known for my punctuality.

I went to the receptionist, she greeted me with a warm smile.

"Good morning how may I help you Ms." She asked in a formal manner. "Can you guide me the way to Mr. Jones office?"
"Ma'am do you have an appointment for meeting him?" She asked.

"I don't think that I need an appointment I am here to work for him."
"Oh are you Ms. Rosella?" She asked.
"Yeah that's me."
"Then you may go to the 12th floor, there you will find his secretary's office on the left side of the hallway."
"Thanks" I returned her a smile and went to the elevator.

The doors to the elevator opened and I got surprised to find Mr. Jones already inside. He was probably coming from the basement parking. He was on his phone.

I stepped in the elevator and the doors closed.
He hung up his phone and said "Ms. Stone didn't my secretary mailed you're work schedule to you?"

I looked up at him "Yeah she did."

"So didn't you read the work time correctly?"he asked arching his brows.
"Actually I wanted to get to know the working place and the people here, so I came early." I said awkwardly.

"Well that's impressive, as such I don't appreciate people who are late and don't take there work seriously." He said appreciatively.

The lift was taking forever to reach the floor but finally we reached the 12th floor. "Come with me." He said and I followed him.

I didn't see much employees on this floor. He opened the door to an office and there was a girl sitting behind the desk. The name tag read secretary.

"This is Ms. Clark she will show you around the office, and after that I expect you to be in my office sharp at 9." I just nodded in return and he left.

"You are not used to such kind of behavior are you?" Ms. Clark said and at first I didn't realize what she meant but then I realized she was talking about Mr. Jones.

"Um yeah maybe you could say that." I didn't know what to answer.

Ms. Clark she stood up from her seat and came towards me. She was a blond women and looked almost the same height as me.

"You can call me Anna and don't worry you will get used to it." She gave me a warm smile.

"Please call me Ella."I returned her a smile and then she took me out of her office.

"You look like you're very committed to your work as I have never seen any employee coming early at there first day to just get to know their working environment." She said in amusement.

"Yeah actually I was nervous to work at a new place so I thought why not come early." She took me to a room which I assume is the conference room.

"This is the conference room all the important meetings are held here". Then she showed me the coffee station and all the different departments that I needed to know in the huge building.

While walking we talked and get to know each other. We talked non stop and we we're literally like 'girl why didn't we meet sooner' and we beacme good friends.

I came to know that Anna was two years older then me and was married with a 1 year old daughter.

By the time I realized it was 9 I started walking towards the lion's den that is Mr. Jones office.

I knocked once and there was a reply to come in. When I went inside I saw that it was a huge room with modern interior.

Mr. Jones was standing near the huge window with his phone in his hand and was typing something. He looked at me and why am I getting these chills up my spine again I don't know.

Then braking the stare he told me to sit down and himself sat on his chair behind his huge desk.

"So Ms. Stone I see you are 5 mins late." And here goes nothing.
