His Whore [ON HOLD]

Chapter Thirteen

The next morning when August woke up at six o'clock, she quickly took a shower and dressed in simple, white pants and a white t-shirt with ratty shoes. She scrapped up a couple of dollars so that as she went shopping, she'd have some money to buy herself something to eat. She had enough for breakfast and lunch, but not dinner.

Instead of pondering about the lack of money, she grabbed her keys, locked her apartment door and headed to grab something to eat before going to the places recommended. She needed a nice outfit for today and hopefully she'd have enough on the S.T.A.R company card to get a months worth of clothes and then with her paycheck she'd be able to buy more. In the end, she wanted at least one outfit for every day of the year so that she didn't look unprofessional wearing the same dress every week or even every other day.

"Welcome to Lacrosse" a brunette greeted August as soon as she entered the shop, "is there anything you're looking for? Specifics? Sizes? Color? Brand?" August stepped back when she lady practically shoved her face into August's space. "Umm, j-just some professional clothes. Dresses if you have any but I will take dress pants as a second and pencil skirts as a last resort. Shirts I don't care about, nor the color of anything. My size is a large but I can fit into mediums perfectly fine too" August murmured, intimidated by the persistent female.

"Perfect!" The female explained as she clapped her hands loudly, it echoed through the all white store, the only differ in color being the clothes.

"Come with me, my name is Lily Cameron and it is a pleasure to meet you."

By the time 9am rolled around, August was leaving the store with heavy bags and exhausted eyes. She heaved a sigh as she walked down the street and into the next store. She only had seven thousand left and she planned on using it well.

With the money she had spent at Lacrosse, she was able to get seven dresses. Four being a second skin to her but didn't flaunt her privates and the rest being loose dresses, paired with a belt or some type of built in strap. She also managed to get three shirts and two pairs of dress pants. Almost everything she bought ranged from $100 to $500.

"My name is Ms. Terrain and welcome to Rośe" a blonde haired lady, a lot more professional then Lily, held her hand out for August to shake, which she did quickly. "August" she smiled. Ms. Terrain, what an odd name, asked August a series of questions as she lead her over to a booth to get measured. It was a circle, one half being the mirror and the other, blocking the view of noisy business men and women. "We are going to take your measurement, color match you and narrow down the list of clothes to the type that you fill comfortable in. John Wes will be your tailor today, he's very sweet but getting old so please stand still while he's measuring you. When he's done, I'll come back and pick out the colors that match best with you. Is there any question?" August shook her head. "Good, please don't be afraid to voice your concerns. We are hear for you, not us."

Like all good things, August's' fun came to an end when eleven thirty hit and she had to drop everything off at her apartment, change into a fitted yellow dress and pull on some white flats she'd bought on her way back to her apartment. They only costed $20 so she paid for them in cash, seeing as her funds from S.T.A.R were running low and barely anything sat in the account anymore.

"Good afternoon August!" The lady behind the desk chirped. August smiled, nodded and made her way to the elevator, quickly heading up to Alec's floor. She entered the hall, signed in with Rum, knocked on Mr. Sterling door and walked in when he told her too.

"Good afternoon Ms. Winters" greeted Mr. Sterling. Alec sat behind his desk, large bundles of paper resting on the two corners closest to her with a bunch of individuals spread out around sterlings arms.

"Morning" she mumbled walking up to him. Sterling glanced up, analyzing her attire. "Good job with the outfit" August thanked him and sat in the chair in front of his desk. He closed the packet he was reading, laid his arms on the table and faced August.

"There isn't much to do today. It's your first day and I'm not going to be a dick and put a lot of stress on you. For most of the day you'll be in here, figuring out your own way with working with me. My secretary Ralph, answers emails and phone calls first and ends up with filing paperwork at the end of the day. It's perfect for me because I need paperwork throughout the day and if he files it in the morning then it file cabinet would become messy. My last assistant set alarms and reminders on his phone and computer for any upcoming meetings twenty minutes ahead of time, again, it helped me regulate when to head down to the meeting room. When it was lunch and dinner meetings he'd remind me an hour ahead of time. You can figure out what you want to do," Alec reached into the drawer open next to him and took out a sheet of paper.

"Here's a list of things you'll be required to do. Make the schedule the way you want it to be and then talk to my assistants so that they can tell you what works best with them." With that being said, Alec let August play around on her tablet and make a schedule that suited her best.

HAPPY LATE HALLOWEEN!!!!

I decided to update since I'll be at work until 9:15pm and I was already logged onto this account! Hahaha

This is somewhat of how I imagined a PA assistant will be able to do once hired. Not all jobs immediately throw their workers into the field and expect them to succeed. Only one of my jobs have done that, the other two have allowed me to pick up at my own pace. Those weren't PA jobs but they were a job nonetheless.
