Ellison Taylor

I didn't really have time to eat my breakfast and it totally slipped my mind when I saw all the paperwork's that was lying on my table. I groaned internally. Work after vacation is the most stressful, you have fun and everything and when you come back all the works are piled up and ready for you.

I had meeting with a clients then the staffs and it was 3:16 pm and I had skip both my breakfast and lunch. I was so focused on the computer that I didn't notice when Rosa walked in looking flustered.

"Mr. Collins is on the phone. Press 1 to receive his call." And she walked out as quickly as she walked in.

"Hello." I said as soon as I pressed 1 on the landline.

"You skipped your breakfast and lunch, didn't you?" He accuses me. "You promised."

"How did you know about that?" I asked, but my focus was on the email of the client.

"Stop checking your computer." He said.

"Are you watching me now? Is there a camera that I wasn't aware of?" I asked.

"So, you were in fact looking at the computer when I was talking." He sounded offensive.

"I was busy." I said.

"But you promised." He whispered. "I'm upset."

"I'll take a break now." I said.

"Good, I called to say I asked for food deliveries for your department for good progress."

"Thanks, I think they will appreciate that."

"Eat. If you don't want me to come to your office to talk to you about that."

"Mr.Collins, I believe you have better things to do than to come here just to talk about my breaks."

"I do have many things that need working on, but I'm worried about my girlfriend."

"She will be just fine."

"Oh. You don't know, Ms.Taylor. She can be very challenging sometime."

"I think you like challenges that's why she is being challenging, Mr.Collins."

"Eat. I'll see you later." He said.

After few minutes, there was in fact bento boxes delivery in our office. Ben was glad that our boss was happy with the progress. I still have Linda's breakfast and lunch in the fridge and I decided to eat just the lunch that she cooked for me. He didn't say I can't eat that.

Rosa came in with a bento box while I was eating rice with chicken. It was absolutely delicious.

"I have lunch." I said.

"Mr. Ian's secretary called." She coughed. "He asked me to deliver a bento box to you."

"But I'm eating my lunch. Someone else can have the extra." I said. "No harm is done. He doesn't need to know that." I smiled and she give me a very uneasy smile.

"Okay." She said as she walked back out.

I was checking the demographic chart of our product when Rosa knocked,

"I'll be leaving, Ms.Taylor. Anything you would like before I go?"

"I'm good, Rosa. Have a good night." It was 5:00 pm. I still have an hour to spend here. I was suppose to be done with work, but I decided to make use of that one hour to do my work.

I packed my things when it was 5:45 and headed downstairs to wait for Ian. He should be here any moment. I see Mr.Park entering the building. He waved at me excitedly.
