Touch Me.

The Co-Worker

It's quite peculiar how my job was so divine and was my passion, but now I live in hell, every day as I stay in my stuffy office. When every girl is little, they role play their beautiful, romantic, princess wedding. They dream of it, and that was why I wanted to be a wedding planner. To make that dream come true for others, and spin off ideas for mine. Every time I planned one, I pictured me and some fair, handsome man. Now, I see me and Cody, and I ache. I start to fall asleep in my office, that smells like Cheez-it's and puke, but then someone walks in. He's tan, with brown hair like cocoa, and eyes that are dark, but change colour in the light. He is very muscular, too. I didn't recognize him until he spoke.
"Hola, me gusta. Sierra, is it? My resume was qualified to be your assistant."
Alejandro, Heather's Alejandro.
What is he doing here? He's my assistant? Man, it's s small world, my friend.
"Alejandro, it's me Sierra, Total Drama World Tour? You only like, ruined my life, you know. Effecting me and Cody's relationship, and tricking me into loosing that million bucks and now, I'm living with a fucking sex addicted drunkard because of you! But don't worry, I'll treat you just like how I'll treat any other assistant. Harsh." I said. Where am I coming from? I just startled the poor guy. Instead, he walks over to me, and stands in front of my chair. He holds my hand as he kneels.
"Darling, I was immature then. I have grown up now, and I'm a better person than before. Please forgive me."
I felt kind of special when he did that. Out of nowhere, I kissed him. He kissed back. After a while, I fall out of my chair and make out beneath my desk.
At home, Vikki is dressed, and actually has decent breath. She made dinner, and she strung balloons on my chair with an envelope on the seat.
"Sierra, sit. How was your day?" She asks. I'm kind of scared.
"Amazing. Is everything alright?"
"Actually, no. I'm going to be straight forward like you. I'm going to be an actress in a new comedy TV show in America. And I really want this. But to have it, I have to move to Hollywood. It's been my dream to be a TV star. Don't be sad, but I can't be your nanny."
What the hell? She never even wanted to work a day in her life! What is she talking about?
"Liar! Liar! Don't make me end up like Heather! I will not be a loser!" I get up out of my seat, and Vikki comes in my face.
"Everyone has told me what to do with my life. For once, I can be me. Please."
She's crying. It's only the pity card. But I can't handle this right now. Alejandro swept me off my feet today, he made me not think about Cody until now. But what about Heather? I have to give her a call.
