Jupiter
*****beep****
Another day, but why does it feel different? Is it because of bijou? Nahhh. Maybe finally am able to let go of kasha. Maybe am at the point of letting go. Lord what I would give to stop feeling this way. Am tired of constantly having to be reminded of something I cannot have. Am tired of walking around like a shell of a man that I once was. I want to be living and not be alive. If that makes any sense.
It's like am here but am not. I just wish that I can be happy. But nothing seems to feel right. Lately I've been thinking of going an see a shrink. I know that I need one but I am not the type of guy to go around talking about my feelings and shite. Hence me putting it off for so long. this shite ends today. I need to get my ducking life on track.
I get up from my bed only wearing a pair of boxers. "Lets get this show on the road" I talked out loud as I went in the direction of the bathroom.
As I stood before the mirror taking my time to step out of my underwear I can't help but looking at my and seeing how sad I am. I forcibly shoved myself under the cold water trying to get into a happy or semi happy mood.
Many people would think that I am crazy for even. doing this to myself, truth be told there is nothing more refreshing than a cold shower in the morning or late at night. It make you feel purified as if all your sins and worries can be washed away.
After 10 minutes I go through the motion of towel drying my hair, brushing my teeth, placing deodorant on and selecting a suit from the many look a likes in my closet.
As I head down stairs to be on my way to work I hear May my house keeper calling out to me. " Jupiter I made you breakfast and you are not getting away before eating it. No excuses.Now sit".
I know better than to argue with my head strong, boisterous house keeper and dear friend who has been with me for five years now.
Thou I didn't have much of an appetite I still managed to conquer my eggs and bacon and drunk my coffee.
"Were you successful yesterday in finding a Secretary?"
" yeah" I replied while chewing on my last piece of bacon. " her name is Bijou and she has a slight accent but am not sure where she is from. One thing that I can say is that it's soothing and I like it".
" really now" she says while smiling.
"What's that smile about?"
" it's just nice hearing you talk about something, or may I say someone with such passion".
" obviously you're on crack. Anyways talk to you later I've got to run. ".
" Hey jupiter , have a blessed day at work son. " .
" thanks May and same goes to you. Dont over work that body of yours" . I shouted before finally stepping out.
Bijou
Bijou!!
Bijou!!
Bijou!!!!!!!!!!!
Reveye tanpri !!!
Fè ou bliye si ou gen travay jodi a?fuck it am already running late, how did this even happen? I can't believe that am going to get fired on my very first day of work.
" i'm up, God damitt am up. And no aunty I haven't forgotten. I just over slept. "
Never in my life have I showered done my make up and eaten in under 20 minutes. Yes I ate. A bitch doesn't want to die.
I'd be a liar if I said that I wasn't scared about going in this morning. Am over five minutes late and this man is gonna chew my head off. I stood outside his office trying to decide whether or not I should go in.
" you have better had a good excuse as to why you are late ms. Julian."
How did he even know that I was standing outside his door. Does this man do voodoo or something?
Anyways I gave a slight knock on the door before entering, plastering my best smile on. Only for it to come off immediately.
This man who sat before me with steam coming out of his ears. Face looking constipated and eyes ablaze. In some weird way looks even more beautiful when he is angry. Those lashes are so god dame long and sexy. My panties are so wet.
" I hope that my coffee is in that bag of yours. If not you have 10 minutes to do so. If for some reason u can't. I'd advice that u do not get back into this building again."
"Ye- yes sir ." I meekly responded. I stood there unable to turn my back and leave . I was so shaken. Lord knows that I can not afford to lose this job.
" you may leave now bijou". I've never thought my name to be special but the way he says it just melts me to my core.
I managed to get out of the building and went in search of a coffee shop. Which wasn't to hard because just a block away I got this high-end looking cafe shop named tea for tart.
Five minutes had already gone by as I stayed waiting biting the tip of my nail. A nasty habit that I really need to kick to the curb.
" beho" " beho"
For the life of me I hope that this fur is not calling my name. But i know to well that the idiot must be calling me. As I stepped forward I collect mr stravos's coffee and started power walking towards Stravos enterprise.One for minute for minute left as I stepped out of the elevator.
" you may enter." How does he even do that.
I opened the door and walked over to his desk. " good morning sir." I Greeted him as I remembered that I never got a chance to do so when I first entered." here are the documents that I told you yesterday that you will need to sign in regards to your employment here." He said as he sipped on his coffee.
He stood and proceeded towards the door only to come to a stop and asked if I was wasn't coming along.
My eyes slowly took every inch of the room in. Wow is this really mine.
" I believe that's what I told you. "
"Did I say that aloud?" " yeah you did. "Jupiter
This woman is the epitome of beautiful. The way that she is taking in the room like she is amazed by it. The disbelief in her emerald eyes. Has me thinking like for once in so long I've done something good.
That body of hers . How did she even fit that cola body in that dress dame. That red pencil skirt and white chiffon blouse looks so good on her. Pull your self together Jupiter. This is your employee. Do not screw this up or her.
" as u can see I've already placed your days work on your task and also I've left you with directions . So if you do not mind I'll see myself out."
