Dani hurriedly finished up her work for the day and gathered up and stuff, she needed to leave the office early, she had to go to the hospital before they close up for the day, they called her earlier saying that what she ordered was ready and she was super excited to finally push start her plans, yes, she had planned this for over two years now, while saving up every penny she earned for it and it was finally time. "Ananda, I will be going now, see you next week," She told her co-worker who shares the office with her. she worked as a secretary for Luciano Miko, her boss, and her worst nightmare, he was like the richest man in the whole of the state of Nevada and had a lot going well for him, he was good to other people except her, he just hated her for no reason, little wonder why he hasn't fired her yet, she got the job to start working for him right after she left uni and she has been his secretary for over five years now and in those five years his hate for her kept increasing,
Dani ran into the hospital while cursing her boss and her bad luck in her mind,she prayed they weren't done for the day yet, she was supposed to have been here earlier, she walked fast to the reception and asked for the doctor, she let out a sigh of relief when the receptionist told her the doctor was still around, it wasn't the usual hospital but a fertility center, mainly based on family-related matters, their main focus being artificial insemination. They were also a bank for those he wanted to donate eggs and semen. "I am sorry I took so long doc, I was delayed by someone, I am so sorry," Dani said trying to catch her breath, the doctor y a pretty woman in her mid-forties smiled. "It is okay, I am on night duties anyway," "Aha, that's cool," Dani said. "Wait here and I will go get it, kind you, you have to admister within the next Thirty minutes," She advised. Dani was aware, she has read all the pros and cons, and she was ready, it won't take her up to thirty minutes to get
Dani was once again woken by the ringing of her phone."I am going to swear at him!"She let out as she checked her phone and it wasn't him calling but her best friend, Keira."Hey, girl?"She greeted still sleepy."You are still in bed? By this time? You didn't go to work?"Keira asked and Dani rolled her eyes getting off the bed and going over to her restroom to pee."It's my week off dummy, I told you before,"She said and heard Keira laugh, K has been her best friend since uni and was the only constant in her life right now, her one true cheerleader."Aha, I thought you were capping because you barely take any break even when you say you will,""That's right and it is all thanks to that jerk who is my boss,"She let out remembering her phone call with the damn man, she just wanted to pinch him hard."Him being a jerk doesn't stop you from crushing on him though,"Keira said with a knowing laugh, yeah, Dani had made the mistake of telling her about the crush she once had on her bos
Dani tried not to let the loss of her job get to her but it was next to impossible, she had everything planned out and if there was one thing she hated the most, it was her plans not going the way she wants them to, getting a new job, for now, was totally out of the question, not only was she sure no company will employ a possibly pregnant woman but she was also sure Luciano would really leave a bad review on her resume, so it was just impossible not to be sad, she spent the rest of the morning just thinking about what she would do but nothing seems to be clicking, when it got really bad, she decided to call Keira who promised to show up once she was done with the client she was attending to.Dani knew she needed to think fast, she hadn't made any financial backup plans because she didn't ever think she could be fired, it all happened so suddenly, and so unjustly, how could he be so heartless and inhuman? He lost money because of her? That wasn’t true because it was his fault, not her
Luciano stared at the file he held in his hand, willing himself not to get mad but the more he looked, the harder it was for him not to get mad. “Danielle? What the fuck is this?”He yelled at his current assistant. “Sir? My name is Nuelle, not Danielle,” Luciano looked at her. She could have answered his question but her main concern was that he got her name wrong and not what she did wrong. How did he end up only getting incompetent assistants? “I don’t think your name should be what you are worried about right now, is this what I asked you to do?”Luciano let out and threw her a look. She looked confused again and the director she worked for who sent her to him swore she was good, yeah. He obviously didn’t know what he was saying because she has messed up more times than he can count already and she has only been with him for two short days. “I am sorry sir, if you will just relay what you wanted me to do again, I am sure I can fix it,” Yeah right, that was the same thing she
“Sir, you called for me,”The new assistant who has been working for him for four days now and whom he thought would be the one asked as she walked him. Yes, walking instead of running, she took a whole ten minutes to get from her space to where he is. Something that would not take up to a minute, jokes on him for thinking she was the one because she was just as useless as the others. “It took you long enough to get here? What happened to the minute of the meeting I asked you to send for me?”Luciano asked. She looked confused and he already saw where her confusion was going. He knew he wasn’t about to like the answer that she was going to give him. “I am sorry sir, but I don’t have any minute that I haven’t submitted,”She said and he glared at her, she bowed her head as if that would solve the problem. “The minute you took for our meeting with the Dubai investors, don’t tell me you don’t have it,”He let out. “I am sorry sir, I don’t have it, you sent me out of the meeting and I
Two weeks, two whole weeks after she became unemployed, Dani finally knew how valuable her job was and she so wanted it back but that crazy man did not call her back, instead, he paid her salary in full even though she only worked for fourteen days in that month, she wanted to send his money back to him but she was low on funds even after her strict budget that she swallowed her pride and kept the money. In the last two weeks, she had heavy thoughts about what she wanted to do with her life going forward but nothing seem to be coming up. She thought of what business she could do until her due date but nothing came up that she was confident that she could do. She came to the conclusion that she can only ever work nine-to-five jobs. That’s if she meets a boss that she can actually work nine to five with, not Luciano. That madman had no idea what a nine-to-five job entails when he kept making her work overtime and even during the weekends. She couldn’t do that kind of job anymore especi
“Where do you think, you are going to?”He let out stopping her on her track.“I thought I told you I never want to see you here, what are you doing in my property?”He barked. She bit her tongue to keep her from saying something nasty back to him. “I left my international passport here and that’s what I came to get,”She told him as she made to leave again. “I am not done talking to you,”He let out and all resolve not to say something nasty to him fell off. “Do you have a problem with me leaving? I am disappearing like you said, I don’t have to listen to you because I am not obligated to anymore, Luciano, pack it up and stop behaving like a child,”She let out and heard his intake of breath, she knew she should run while she still can and she was about to do that when he grabbed her. “Clean up the mess in the office and take the rest of the day off,”He said to the lady who has been silent since he got back in. At least she still has her job. “Thank you, sir,”She called after t
