 "Albert, Albert wakeup, You idiot".
Albert opened his eyes groaning, as he felt his bed bouncing. He rubbed his eyes and sat up.

" What the hell!". He hissed in a hoarse voice, deep from sleep.
He balanced himself, with his back on the headboard.

"What the hell Becca?
What are you doing here this early morning? And,
" why are jumping on my bed girl?, Get down.!"
He moaned in a shaky voice rubbing his eyes

"Wake up, she yelled jumping on the bed once again.
"I am up,' am up," Albert said standing up from the bed, stretching his hands over his head, yawning.

"Now get off from my bed Becca", he said in a very serious tone.

"Ok mission accomplished... Yes !".
Becca sang in a happy tone and jumped off from the bed, landing with a loud thud and grinned at Albert

" Good morning bestie ", she patted on his shirtless chest". 
"Oww !your hands are so cold ".
Albert hissed stepping backward

" Get out so that I can get dressed, Albert said making a silly face at Becca pointing his finger towards the door.

"Awww! Nothing I haven't seen before, Albert".she said in a seductive tone
And giggled at Albert's awkward expression and walked out.

"Oh, really, I bet you will enjoy seeing me naked.”,
he called after her, shaking his head, cracking up, and closing the door behind her back.
“In your dreams”, he heard Becca called out from the kitchen.

When he appeared downstairs she had settled down on the kitchen island with a bowl of cereal and newspaper.

Albert went and fetched a bowl out of the cupboard for himself and filled it with his favorite cereal and milk, poured a glass of orange juice from the fridge and sat down opposite to Becca.

Becca looked up at him taking in a mouthful of her cereal.
“Now tell me ", she said pointing her spoon at Albert
“ what's there to tell?”, Albert spoke not looking up at her.

“Oh no, Albert come on, tell me” Rebecca was starting to lose her cool conduct.

"It's done" Albert shrugged his head  looking into Becca's questioning eyes

“Yes!; that's great news", Becca exclaimed.

But on seeing Albert's annoyed look, her shoulders dropped

" I know Albee you don't like me putting myself in danger, but this needs to be done or else Fernando with be back in power again."

“Ya I know,” Albert said grimly
And you are right I am not happy about it."
finishing his cereal, he raised from his barstool,  moving towards the sink and started cleaning his bowl.

 "I have talked  Antony about hiring you so because you won't stop pestering me".

" Ooh is that so ", Becca inquired with a slight smirk tugging on her lips.
Albert huffed " And because I know that if I didn't do it for you,
You will find another way".
He turned to dry his hands on the kitchen towel and placing his bowl back in its plate
Becca smiled at him
" Yup, you are right and you have done a great help, Thank you, Albert " she gratefully said
Albert laughed " oh when did you start showing manners to me".
"And... Here we go ", Becca said looking at a
Albert laughing and laughing along with him.

Suddenly he halted,
hummed lightly he if recalled something and asked,

"You didn't tell me how to managed to
Get Mr.Peterson's assistant to apply for retirement?".

" I just proposed her buy her a house near her daughter's home so that she can visit her grandchildren everyday, simple "
She grinned at Albert taking a sip of her coffee, who was looking at her in astonishment.

Albert looked down on his watch and said slowly.
" I gotta go ... I have an early meeting "

Albert got his keys and kissed Becca on her forehead
And he said turning back halfway down the kitchen.

“ Your appointment with Mr. Peterson is at 10.00
Be on time, he is very punctual
And he said in a low voice as if saying a secret
"Wear something sexy " he gleamed.

"I am perfect at playing my game bestie, and you know that ".

She said smirking and leaning on the counter her hands folded on her chest.
