Today's routine was the same as yesterday's. Ignore Claire, make Mr. Cavill's coffee, place it on his desk, await instructions. Only today when I heard Mr. Cavill's footsteps in the hall they came into my office.
"What is this?" He placed his laptop on my desk, it was my two week notice.
"My two week notice sir."
"You've been here for three days. Are you too sensitive and feeble for my instruction and criticism?!"
"Mr. Cavill, I quit." I'm sure he was coming in my office today to fire me. A two week notice after only being employed for three days, I was certain he was coming to fire me.
"Ms. Nicole." I ignored him as I gathered my things. I didn't need this job enough to put up with being mistreated and insulted. All I did to get on this man's bad side was make his coffee incorrectly and I wasn't even the one that made it
The door shut softly then he spoke. His voice was softer, it caught me off guard.
"Nikki." My eyebrows perked up at the sound of my first name and his tone of voice. He wasn't yelling or being intimidating, he was speaking normally.
I stopped packing my things and faced him. He took a seat then motioned for me to do so.
"Can I explain all of this over dinner?"
"Are you asking me out?"
"If you see it that way, then yes."
I was still hesitant. 3 minutes ago he was down my throat about being sensitive and feeble and now he's asking me out.
"Sure. I'm still quitting, Mr. Cavill."
"We can talk about that over dinner. I'm giving you the day off." With that he left my office. I was confused, I quit but he gave me the day off and asked me out to dinner all in the same breath. — Since I no longer worked for Mr. Cavill and he always had something to say about my body I decided to flaunt it tonight. I would still be appropriate though.
He emailed me a few hours after I left the office with an address and a time. I appreciated the fact that he didn't offer to pick me up, I would've felt a bit uneasy with the arrangement. — I arrived to the address a few minutes early. It wasn't a restaurant it was his house I'm guessing. I pulled up to the gate and rang the buzzer.
"I'm here to see Mr. Cavill. My name is Nikki Nicole."
The gates in front of me opened up slowly allowing me to pull in. I parked next to a sleek black Tesla making sure not to block it in.
*doorbell melody* The door flew open after a few seconds of waiting. A very handsome man with the sharpest jawline I've ever seen opened the door. He held a smile on his face.
"Nikki. Glad you could make it."
"Mr. Cavill?"
"Call me Henry. Do you not recognize me? I only shaved." He laughed as I walked in
