"No! At the corner!" Ren pushes the new black cozy couch to the corner as I ordered. It looks perfect in that position.It's still so exciting to watch my friends and family help me move in. Even more exciting to watch them help me decorate my new apartment.All this just feels so surreal. A new place. A new town. A new life.Mom is busy hanging a painting on the wall. A beautiful painting that she has given me as a souvenir. A painting of "a couple watching the sunset". I have worshipped it ever since I was a kid and now I get to keep it. I get to be seeing it hanging every morning...I can't thank Mom enough for the painting.Amira couldn't make it today because she felt sickly in the morning. Mom thinks she might be pregnant because Amira has been complaining about morning sickness lately. I don't know if that's true but, isn't it too soon in the

The boss throws the receptionist a cold look and mutters, "Do your damn job, Zoe! I didn't hire you to chatter cheerfully on calls!"The boss blatantly ignores me and walks away, his hand shoved in his pants. I am a little relieved he didn't talk to me. Maybe he didn't even notice me...I still can't believe he's the freaking boss!I stare at him as he steps into the elevator. Studying him. Scanning him.He's looking down as the doors shut. He's probably deep in thought. His head tilts up and in that instant, our eyes meet. His eyes are dangerously dark... Beautifully dark...My heart leaps a little and I quickly look away.I turn to the receptionist who is staring at me with a little sarcastic smirk."Sorry, you don't stand a chance sweets...""Chance? What... What do you mean?""I saw the way you were looking at Mr. Grumps there..."I quirk an eyebrow. "Mr. Grumps?"She giggles. "Y

"I'm returning the shoes!" Zara freaks out. "What! Are you crazy?" She falls on the swivel chair where Madeline sits like she's the queen of this throne. Madeline would kill Zara if she found her sitting on her throne like that.  I shake my head. "Why did he buy me the shoes? I mean, he's my boss and I just met him today!" "So what?" She screams. "That's CJ! He's the fucking boss of this company!" "Why did he buy me the shoes though?" I ask. It's still puzzling why he bought me the shoes on my first day at work.

Zara is freaking out at the elevator and screaming at me. It's funny how she's the one freaking out more than I am. I mean, I'm the one that just got fired, not her. And she's not taking any of it.  Zara glares at the two female interns standing beside us when she notices them staring at us. "Can y'all just mind your fucking business and block your fucking ears and stop staring at me like I'm some monkey!" I chuckle when she says that and the interns immediately stop staring at her. So apparently, Madeline fired me because she found out that I threw the pieces of the letter she sent CJ in the office trash can. So she thinks that I'm the one that tore the letter into pieces. She has no idea that CJ did that and

CJ is staring blankly at me. I can't quite read the expression on his face. I just got here and I still don't know why the hell I'm here. On my right are two young women with ridiculous makeup and ugly-drawn eyebrows glaring at me. What the hell is going on? George hasn't wept that smirk off his face. CJ clears his throat. "What's this I'm hearing Terra?" "What?" I ask in confusion.  CJ looks at the women who are still glaring at me. "You told us CJ is already obsessed with y
