Five years later
I walked into the company I had been working in for the past, five years. The company I have come to learn more about as the time goes on and yet, I knew nothing of the big boss I worked with.
Stopping at Queens desk, I decided to have a chat with her about something that had been broading me when I found out about a week ago. She looked at me warily. What’s wrong. One glance at me and she already knew something was wrong and she didn’t even get to see the week ago me and yet my boss seemed to have a blind spot in his eye anytime he sees me or something. I stared at Queen as I wondered how to turn my thoughts into words. She had spent the last five years, trying to become friends with me since, I was the only female who was also allowed to the front door of big bosses actual office and not the one he occupied during the interview years ago. She had told me that when I had invited her into my new apartment a month ago and now I felt lucky to have her here as well.
“ when you are done thinking about big boss, you could continue then”, she let out.
“ I wasn’t thinking of him” I pointed to my head.” This doesn’t have time to drool over a workaholic such as the big boss “ dropping my hand back to its original position. But Queen liked to poke at me like how really closed friends normally do and I was grateful for her as much. “ can we not talk about him, who has nothing to do with my brain” “ of course “ “ why thank you “ I blurred out.
I clasped my hands together and rested on her desk, who ever has seen me didn’t acknowledge that and I was fine by that. “My ex boyfriend Brian, who was my high sweetheart and a cheater, announced his marriage with my back stabbing best friend of a person and now, I feel like even sure people get a happy ending and yet I myself the victim seemed to be stack with a big boss. And I’m not complaining, the money is good and all but I feel like something is missing. Queen’s face with all sad and soft. This best friend of your seems to be the reason for most of your lonely days. I wanted to say no but it was kinda true. “ Not quite but on the path there”
“ where did you get this news from” she asked. “ the news board and all, I’m the assistant of big boss, of course I get the intel’s on stuffs happening.” We grew up together and now he was about to get married and it’s kinda petty of me but I really want to storm into his party and let him know what he gave up on and how my life is better than his combined. “ no way is fighting for your happiness is wrong, go over there and show them what he lost” I smiled but then being the assistant of big boss was drama itself and I wasn’t going to search for me, I just guess getting all these awards of best assistant wasn’t going to end the fact that I had no family of my own”
Don’t take this wrong but, then I have people who loved me, a good paying job and and was in good condition but I never gave myself out to be loved more then just friendship and now it’s seems like I’m stuck at one place and not moving. Working my butt off and existing to only wake up, eat, work and sleep. I didn’t date, go on any vacation or sort and I just didn’t have time for my self time, since I started working for the big boss. Seems like I’m becoming more and more of him and I now I just feel a bit off.
“ ow- Red I’m sorry about that, I took so work a lot but I have Jack to go home to so, yea we are trying to work up some more money and start a family”
“ great so I am the only one left behind” Red said. “ okay now, I get it, but yea you did spend five years getting to your high status, I mean you are now the most sought after assistant a Boss could have”
“ Well now, I need to start a life for my own”
“ if it hurts you makes you feel bad, you don’t really need to be at the wedding right”
“Wish that was possible but we were invited and the big boss, never wasted his time on these stuffs but dot some reason. He agreed and now we both going “
“Mr Warner, actually wants to go” I see Queens mouth drop open as she asked the question, even I had the same reaction but then, I have come to learn big boss could be hell of a lot unpredictable and there is nothing, anyone could do about that actually.
Shit you might not be married or live in an all expensive mansion but you are one hack of a lady. Attractive, beautiful, smart and brilliant and you are an award winning assistant and most of all you work with the biggest boss in the country. Do you know how many people are willing to kill for your work.
“ kill as long as they don’t get too close to him and see the monster face behind it all”
“What do you mean, he is a very handsome boss and maybe he has never smiled before but it can’t be that bad” I stared at Queen and if it wasn’t for the fact that i was big bosses assistant I would have crawled to the ground and laugh my butt off, has anyone thought to wonder why in less than five years. I have been announced the best assistant in the country. It came with more responsibility then they could ever imagine.
He was a man who seemed to have no life after work so just continued to work his life away and I had become that as well. Following in his steps because I was near him and with him almost every time. So I was now a workaholic assistant as well and now I wanted to start a life for myself and I didn’t even know how. Sometimes I even allowed myself to think maybe drowning myself in work could just as much as make me happy and everything seemed fine still a week ago. And now I feel like I was wasting my life off and I wasn’t getting any younger.
you know I rooting for the big boss and you to get married or something since you both seem to love working so much”
I was not going to react to that, I was about to call her crazy but then I wasn’t going to hurt her feelings. “ you are allowed to think and wish what ever you feel pleased with”
She stared at me like I just let a boom shell on her
“You know if I didn’t know better, I will think you had a thing for big boss” good you know better than
