" Sit on this chair," Emery said, I sat down on the chair then Emery stood up while handing me a piece of paper which was the list. " I don't do this very often so listen to me," Emery said, I then nodded, " So the first rule you must follow is that you will always call me Sir. Did you get that?" Emery said. " Ah yes Sir," I replied, " Second, you are to wear a formal attire every day to work and always wear your pin ID card. Third, you are not allowed to have any relationships with other employees" Emery said, " What does my personal life with relationships with others have to do with working for you?" I blurted out. " I make the rules here" Emery replied then smirked. The lecture continued for an hour, gladly it was already time for lunch. Famished, I went straight up to the door to get lunch, " Where do you think you're going" Emery said. " Isn't it already my break time? In the contract, it says I can pause my work for aiding you when the time comes" I replied. " Yes indeed, but wasn't it also part of the contract that you have to always be at my side at certain times and disregard your personal activities as it is your job?" Emery said.
" But it seems like I am not in need of aid for you Sir might as well I should go now" I replied, " I'm going to be eating out. As part of your job you should also be there right?" Emery said, this man, he's twisting the contract but in a legal way urgh. We then drove to this fancy 5-star restaurant and it looks like Emery had already booked a table for two. " Sir, I think I shouldn't be here and I don't think I could pay for my fees here," I said to him, "It's okay, I'll take the pay" Emery replied. " Sir that would be embarrassing-", " EAT," Emery said. " Welcome Ma'am and Sir to Black Dragon Restaurant, what would you like to order?" the waitress asked, I skimmed through the menu but all the dishes are really expensive and I don't want to have a huge debt on Emery. " We'll take 2 steaks and a glass of non-alcoholic wine and another glass of French Sauternes wine," Emery said, the waitress took the order to the kitchen. " I ordered a non-alcoholic wine for you because you look like someone who would get drunk in one sip," Emery said, well it may be true that I have a low alcohol tolerance, but he didn't have to shove it like that to my face.
" Your meals," the waitress said, the steak looks very juicy and tender. I took a slice of it and ate it, " Wow! This tastes really good! This must be a once-in-a-while meal for most people" I said, " Do I look like someone who can't afford this?" Emery said, " Hoho Sir, of course! You could even buy the whole restaurant" I shrugged. Emery continued his meal then our wines have arrived, Woah, this wine really looks expensive as if it looks imported. " I ordered the Chateau De Fleur wine for you and I think you already know why," Emery said. He took a sip of his glass and didn't look flustered after drinking such a strong alcoholic wine, I looked at my glass and started to take a sip. I could taste the flavors of apple and peach with bubbles that dance on my taste buds. Emery looked at me while I enjoyed my glass of wine, " You need to learn how to properly drink wine" he said, " How?" I replied. " You shouldn't be drinking wine as soon as it is poured, but first you need to swirl it and sniff by sticking your nose into the glass. Always hold the wine glass by the stem. This will prevent heat from your hand from undoing all the hard work you did to get the wine to the right temperature." Emery said. I pretended to listen then just finished the whole glass with one gulp, " This girl needs some manners" Emery thought to himself.
