I hastily walk through the grey maze of hallways to get to the centre of the building, with a tray of food in my hands. Jeremiah has been quite stressed with some important project for work. He thinks it's too stressful and overwhelming to tell me. So the only thing I could do is try and be a good girlfriend and be there for him when he needs me to, and try to surprise him by doing things he doesn't necessarily expect me to do. Like this dinner for example. I wanted to try something new so I made chicken caccoitore. It's my first time making it and I'm pretty sure I nailed it. I finally made it to the doors of Jremiah's office. I was so excited to give him the meal. I got to say I was pretty proud of it. "Jere I know your busy but I brought you something your going to love." I stated as I had the tray in one hand and opening the big steel office door with the other with a large smile on my face. But my smile soon faded when I opened the door to see Jeremiah and his assistant Echo standing at the centre table that was covered in papers. Standing and looking so closely at each other that if they were any closer they would be kissing and that honestly looked like what they were going to do. That is until the door being ajar got Jeremiah's attention.
"Hey Darling!" Jeremiah smiles while stepping away from Echo. "I brought you dinner." I stated calmly trying desperately not to break down and cry or start yelling with rage. "Oh Darling thank you so much!" Jeremiah thanked with what seemed like a genuine smile but I wasn't buying it. Not the smiles or his little nickname for me. "I'll leave you two alone then. I'll start that project and give you a status report in a few hours." Echo stated walking past me briefly smiled then left the room, closing the door behind her. The status report statement was making it very difficult to control my emotions now. Maybe it was actually work that she was mentioning but I highly doubt it. My smile completely erased from my face as I walk over to his large desk and put the tray down. "Oh this looks so good and smells great! I can't wait to eat it!" Jeremiah says approaching his desk while rubbing his hands together in what seemed like anticipation, but I feel like he is really trying to butter me up to throw me off. I don't say a word as I walk over to his mini fridge to get him a drink to go with his meal, then set it down a little harder then usual on the tray and started making my way to the door. "Hey Darling where are you going aren't you going to eat with me?" "No I wouldn't want to disturb you with your work, and to keep you from that status report call from Echo that your probably so eager to get!" I stated turning around to face him with so much negative sarcasm that the words were dripping with it.
"Ok what's wrong?" Jeremiah asked turning away from the food to face me. "What's wrong?!! What's wrong?!! I'll tell you what's wrong! I know you have a very private office but make sure that your girlfriend isn't here before you try to kiss your assistant!!!" My words spit out nothing but anger, throwing all of my calmness out the window. "Ok wow wow wow that's not what was happening." Jeremiah stated calmly putting his hands up in defence. "Oh yeah well that's not what it looked like! You guys were so frickin close that if you were any closer your tongues would be in each others mouths! So please explain to me what you guys were doing!" I yelled while talking with my hands."We are working on a big project. We were discussing steps to take to insure that the plan would work. In fact Echo is out there right now working on this plan." He explains with his voice slightly raised as he explains himself. "Oh yeah and what's this project that you have been working so hard on?! What is the project that has you in this room from early in the morning to late at night?! The work project that you refuse to tell your girlfriend because it's too much for me?! He paused with a sad expression on his face . Looking down at the centre table that we were close to. I know I could have looked at the papers but I wanted to hear it from him. He collected all the papers strung about the table and put it in a folder. Closing it then looking back up at me. "I can't tell you." He replied quietly almost seeming defeated. I sighed shaking my head, then a terrible thought popped into my head. "You know you have to see this from where I'm standing! You spend everyday in here with your assistant working on a supposed project that you won't tell your girlfriend what your working on. What the hell do you think that looks like from my point of view ha!!! I only see you occasionally but she sees you all the time, but it should be the other way around! I know she devoted her life to you and his job but I've devoted my life too!" "So your jealous of Echo!Of how much time I spend with her!" "Have you been listening to a word I've said?!" "Yes and all I hear is jealousy!" "No what I want is the truth Jere! What your doing now is showing me that you have more trust in Echo then you do me!" I took a deep breath then continued calmly. "So I want you to tell me what your working on." "You don't think that maybe I'm doing this to try and keep you safe! That maybe the thing I'm working on is too dangerous for you to know about!" He raised his voice. "Keep me safe from what Jere?! Ha what?!" He paused and even though I waited him to answer he didn't have a single word to share. I shook my head in disappointment. "See that's what I thought." I stated sadly as I turned around and walked towards the door.
