I called out for Jack and waited patiently for a response. Jack came into the room, "Yes" he chuckled. I hummed and opened my closet. yes I now have my own closet. "Pick an outfit for me" I laid across the bed. He clicked his tongue and looked at me worried. "I don't know how to tell you this Cris" He furrowed his eyebrows.
"I have a professional wardrobe stylist for a reason" He cocked his head back. "Just pick out what you would like to see me in" I groaned
and got up to see how he was doing. "How's this?" He pulled out a black long sleeved dress. I clapped and grabbed the outfit from his hands. I bent down to put on a pair of nude heels. I slipped on the dress over my head and
flattened it. I smiled and Jack and headed downstairs. he followed me into the hall way confused. "Wait, where are you going?" He asked following me down the stairs. I huffed
and headed towards the door. I grabbed my coat and threw it on over my dress. I fixed my
hair in the mirror and seen Jack was waiting
for an answer. I bobbed my head and walked towards the elevator. Jack grabbed my shoulder and turned me around. "Where are you going Cristina" He looked in my eyes.i
hated lying to him and I couldn't lie to him directly to his face. "I'm going to work" I said calmly. His face overcame with shock. "I'm Sorry, I'm late I'll let you come pick me up if you want okay." I pressed open on the elevator. "uh 5:39 okay, don't forget" I turned my head
towards him as I walked in then back into the elevator. I hurried and shook my leg as I waited for the doors to open. I bolted towards the doors then remembered I have to walk all the way over to the main entrance now. I should've
taken the stairs in the hall. I ordered an UBER like I should've done last time and patiently waited for them to shown up. I soon seen a
dark blue Toyota prius show up in front of the building. "For Cristina" The woman rolled down her window. I nodded my head and got in the back seat. "Good morning Ms. Steele"
the driver announced. "Good morning" I
Chuckled and put my phone into my bag. I watched her stroll in front of my building and stopped. She unlocked the doors and let me out. I thanked her and waved, signaling her to
leave. i huffed and swayed my hips as I walked into the building. I waved at Katie on the first floor in publishing. I headed towards the elevators and pressed the arrow pointing up. The elevator was empty so I pressed my floor
and held onto my bag. I walked straight from the elevator to my office. They hadn't given us any information about Samuel or what was happening to him. We didn't even know if we
were getting a new boss anytime soon. I heard heels cling onto the floor as a tall brunette woman walked towards my desk. I sat up straight and smiled at her. She stopped in front
of me. "Cristina, I have news for you." She smiled at me. I smiled back of course but very cheekily. "Yes?" I asked with a fake smile plastered across my face. "We checked in on the entire Samuel situation and we looked over
all your recent work, May I say you've done an excellent job so far!" She whispered to me. "We're thinking about putting you in charge." She breathed in. I stopped and the entire office
eyes were on me. I looked around and laughed nervously. "Me? Why me?" I chuckled again. "You have the most experience in this building, well the only who who knows what they are doing" she rolled her eyes. She looked back at
me and waited for me to respond. "Can u take a day to think about this?" I asked politely. She nodded her head and simply walked back into the elevator. Before shutting it she winked at
me and smiled. I smiled back and sat back at my desk. They want me to be head here? Why me? That was my only question and concern. Were they trying to set me up? Try to catch me
in a lie or something for getting their greatest worker fired and charged with assault and rape charges. Well, attempted molestation if you would. I tried to focus but I have to admit that was kind of hard when I had to try to decide if I
was going to take up this job or not. Whatever, I'll talk it over with Jack when I get home.
