Tuesday morning;"The CEO visits tomorrow!" It rang in Giselle's ear and she jumped up on her bed."Good morning!" She greeted Thomas in a hurry, storming out of the house."Easy, Gis! What's up with you?" Thomas asked, observing."The CEO visits today, I'm in a hurry to finish with today's work before his arrival," Giselle said, putting her keys in her handbag."Tea?" Thomas asked, handing his own cup of tea to Giselle."Naaaaa, I'm fine. I'll sort myself out at work. Thank you," She said walking out from the door."Have a nice day at work!" Thomas screamed at her when she already left."Thank you," Giselle muttered, running to the gate.She flagged down a cab, after negotiating with the driver she hopped into the cab and they moved in the direction of Rock company.She got down from the cab and heaved a sigh of relief, "thank you, sir," She greeted the cab man after handing him his pay, then stormed into the company."Good morning, you're at work early today," Janet, the cleaner at
She was mad at herself for saying 'sorry' to this man, she remained bowed, unmoving. "You may lift your head," He said, laughing.She lifted her head, angry at herself for saying 'sorry' to Mr. Greg."I forgive you for throwing your spittles on me, and also spending my money. And slapping my worker inclusive," His voice thundered, deep.She still didn't talk. "Leave my office," He commanded."What!?" She asked, surprised."Leave my office. Or do you have something to offer?" He smiled, looking in her direction."No, I don't. You, you…….you should apo…lo..gize," Giselle found herself stammering."What for?" He asked, looking at her eyes and smiling."You should apologise for splashing puddles on my dress!" She said with a louder voice."I paid for another dress, Miss. I gave you fifty dollars!" He said, changing the tone of his voice."It doesn't change anything," She said again."Ohhh, really? I thought otherwise. Now, leave my office!" He commanded, looking at his system to face hi
Raging with anger in his office, Greg sat back on his chair. It was Friday morning.Mr. Greg looked at his system again and stood up throwing an object at his office door. Just then, Mr. Hayden, the Manager, walked in with shock, "what's the problem, sir?" He dodged the object that almost hit him. Looking at the Manager with an angrier face, he got closer holding the man on his neck, "you bastard!"Struggling with his own neck for breath, Hayden begged, "would you please calm down, sir? What's the problem?" Realising what he just did, he withdrew his hand from Hayden's shirt, went to the face of his system, "take a look," He invited, showing him something on his computer system."What!?" Hayden looked again to be sure of what he just saw."Who did this?" Greg asked, holding another object and sitting on his chair again."I….. have no….. idea," Hayden stammered.Getting up from his seat again, he graced him with a slap that landed him on the floor. Groaning in pain, Hayden begged,
Few days after Giselle's suspension from work:Giselle stayed back at home, Ellen left a few days after she was suspended."I'll miss you, mom," She cried that day. "I'll be home all alone while Thomas goes to his office everyday.""I'll miss you too, baby!" Ellen had consoled, hugging her daughter shortly. "You'll resume soon, you know?""I know, I'll still be here for a while! One more week and a few days," She cried. And here, she was all alone, unplanned. She couldn't video chat with her friend, Helen. She was always busy during the day with work and always had to wait for night calls. Thomas went to work everyday, leaving Giselle all alone at home. He always came back in the evenings. Most times when he arrived, Giselle was in her room snoring.Meanwhile, at Rock company: Erica enjoyed her stay at the office. With thoughts of having the CEO to herself all alone."How is your friend?" She had once asked Helen."Which of them?" Helen asked back, knowing fully she was referring to
"She came out with a red face, her eyes were teary. I know I saw tears," Helen said to her friend."Hell No! The CEO beats women too?" Giselle asked, looking at her friend.It was a day after Erica's exposure and a week after Giselle's suspension from work. Helen was at Giselle's house this weekend.She gave her the updates from work, making Giselle laugh like a small lady."How did you know he beat her up, Helen?" Giselle asked, wanting to hear more about the incident."I wouldn't say, I just felt that way after Mr. Declan's call," Helen answered."Mr. Declan, who is he?" Giselle asked, confused."Well, a man who says he wants to know the truth behind your suspense from work. I think he has a connection with the CEO," Helen said, laughing."Ohhh, dear! I'm in trouble.""I didn't know he was sent, I just didn't think well before giving him answers," Helen said."It's fine, I may not return to that company for another resumption. Helen," Giselle cried."You will, I told the man the tru
Monday morning:Giselle hurriedly went into the bathroom, removed her clothes and jumped under the shower. When she got out of the bathroom, and dressed up in a hurry."Good morning," She hugged Thomas shortly, collecting the cup of tea he handed to her when she muttered, "thank you.""So, you're going to work finally!" Thomas said, settling on the dining seat while he drank his own tea."Yes, Helen can't wait to see me today," Giselle laughed."I can imagine," He laughed. "Please, help me with bread from the kitchen. Gis."Hurrying into the kitchen, she ran out again with few slices of bread. "Here."He collected the bread from her after muttering, "thank you."When she was done with the content in her cup of tea, Giselle returned the cup to the kitchen. "Bye, Tom," She said, grabbing her handbag moving to the door."Did you take your keys?" Thomas looked up at her to enquire."Ohhhh, fuck!" She cried and ran back to her room to grab the keys."Enjoy your day, Gis," Thomas said, watc
Looking up at her, he asked again, "what did you say?""I'll go with you," She repeated, her face straight.Smiling triumphantly, he said, "see you by evening, Miss. You may leave."She walked out from his office and guided her steps to her own office, almost regretting the decision she made. "Are you okay?" Jake asked, looking at her face."Yes, I am fine. Jake," She smiled reassuringly."Alright.""What brings you to my office? Giselle Jones!" Helen asked, grabbing a chair for her friend to sit on."I bring updates, sweetie," She said, sitting on the chair Helen brought."Tell me about it," Helen said, smiling."Jake told me the Manager sent for me earlier," Giselle started."Okay?" Helen said."He referred me to the CEO," Giselle explained."What for?!" Helen was almost screaming."He told me…" And she shed lights on the issues at hand."Wait, what?!" Helen screamed."I tell you, he asked me to," Giselle said."What was your response?" Helen asked.Shrugging her shoulders, Giselle
"Stain my dress?!" The confused Giselle asked, cleaning her hands with the towel. "Yes! The paints you touched by mistake could stain your dress when worn," Tiana said, walking into the bathroom to wash her own hands."We leave in one hour," Greg said, pushing the door to give his information."Yes, sir. We were almost done," Tiana answered from the bathroom.A look at Giselle's face made the CEO leave the room smiling."Let's get this on your fine body, Miss," Tiana answered, drying her hands with the towel Giselle used."Get on your feet, ma'am," Tiana said, holding the blue dress.She got on her feet, standing to face the mirror."You should undress," Tiana said, turning to pick up her phone.Giselle undressed wearing only her undies when Tiana put the dress on Giselle's body."Perfect!" Tiana screamed at the same time taking shots of her job on Giselle's face and body."Thank you, Tiana," Giselle cried, admiring the job done."It's my pleasure, it was paid for," Tiana said, packi
