Iris' POV
"What happened to you Iris? You're so stupid like hell!" he yelled at me.
"I'm really tired of you Zeus, the hurtful words, you know what? It hurts a lot. You're so cruel! I wish I never worked with you! Right now, I'm leaving!" I shouted. I walked out.
"I've been giving you so many chances to improve your work but you didn't get it right. What happened to you?"
"This was not my fault. You shouldn't have hired me if I'm stupid like hell!" tears flew down.
"As I knew, you made luscious coffee at miss Dee's coffee shop."
"The coffee machine that I used when I was working at miss Dee's coffee shop was different from what you have."
"Why?" he asked calmly.
"The coffee machine that you have was so high-tech, I didn't mastered it yet, while miss Dee's coffee machine was the outmoded one, much easier to use."
"You should have told me about that Iris."
"I'm sorry sir. But I'll find a job that fits me."
"No Iris, I already hired my new barista. She'll be here at 7 pm."
"So what?"
"I'll promote you as my new assistant slash secretary." he smiled. What? Is he serious?
"I won't, I made the most disgusting coffee, maybe I'll ruin your company if I'm your new secretary. You forgot? I'm so stupid like hell."
"I'm just upset."
"I'm sorry."
"Iris, I said, I'm just upset, I knew that you're smart you're currently studying right?"
"Yea."
"Please, I fired my old secretary. It's really hard to find a new one."
"You fired her? Why?"
"It's none of your business."
"I'll think."

Zeus' POV
"You're fired! Now, leave!" I pointed the door.
"Sir, I'm so sorry sir. I can fix this all. Please give me another chance sir I beg you." she knelt down while crying.
"No chances."
"I'm so poor sir, please give me one more chance sir."
"Get out." emphasizing the words.
Her eyes are very red. I felt pitty, but I can't forgive what she did. Nora Smith was my personal assistant and secretary for three years. She's so loyal to me.
It's 3pm, my coffee time. I called Iris, she arrived right away.
She handed me the coffee, hopefully, this will be better.
"What happened to you Iris? You're so stupid like hell!" I felt disgust.
"I'm really tired of you Zeus, the hurtful words, you know what? It hurts a lot. You're so cruel! I wish I never worked with you! Right now, I'm leaving!" she cried.
"I've been giving you so many chances to improve your work but you didn't get it right. What happened to you?"
"This was not my fault. You shouldn't have hired me if I'm stupid like hell!" yeah she's right. But
"As I knew, you made luscious coffee at miss Dee's coffee shop."
"The coffee machine that I used when I was working at miss Dee's coffee shop was different from what you have."
"Why?"
"The coffee machine that you have was so high-tech, I didn't mastered it yet, while miss Dee's coffee machine was the outmoded one, much easier to use."
"You should have told me about that Iris."
"I'm sorry sir. But I'll find a job that fits me."
"No Iris, I already hired my new barista. She'll be here at 7 pm."
"So what?"
"I'll promote you as my new assistant slash secretary."
"I won't, I made the most disgusting coffee, maybe I'll ruin your company if I'm your new secretary. You forgot? I'm so stupid like hell."
"I'm just upset."
"I'm sorry."
"Iris, I said, I'm just upset, I knew that you're smart you're currently studying right?"
"Yeah."
"Please, I fired my old secretary. It's really hard to find a new one."
"You fired her? Why?"
"It's none of your business."
"I'll think."
Hopefully, she'll change her mind.

"Open the door Iris. Maybe that was my new barista."
Iris headed through the main door.
"Good morning Mr. Zeus Hawthorne." they half bowed.
"Take a sit. I'm going to imform you two the rules."
"First, you should be here at 5 am sharp. I don't tolerate late person."
"Second, no criticisms allowed."

"Fourth, my things are soooo expensive, be sure not to break or messed up with my things. Handle it with care. "
