Never it can't be
Ronald is my boss. How can I be so foolish? The negative feeling when I looked at the pictures. The card R.P means Ronald Parker. The roses and shores are everywhere. The painting spread the feeling of betrayal. How much I'm blind right now?
"I'm fucking asking you a question what the hell are you doing here?" My whole body vibrates with his bark. The horror I forgot in one year is now again covering me. The whole earth is shaking badly with his roar.
"I.. I don't know..."
"Mr. Ronald, I'm sorry." Olivia's sudden voice stopped me. She's standing in simple clothes. Ronald angry eyes running between us. The dark green eyes like a forest now turn deep darker. The rain that's all coming in words.
"Olivia where the fuck your cloths and who the hell she's doing on your spot?" Olivia gave me an apology look. But I'm busy watching my shaking earth or trying to stand still.
"Mr. Ronald, she's your secretary now. I quit my job."
"I don't think I signed any your fucking resignation letter." He yelled at Olivia again. That's why she wants to quit this job as soon as possible. He's not my Ronald. He's someone else. So much anger running on his handsome face. When he used to be so handsome?
"Mrs. Laura signed that." The name left from her mouth and I took a step back. How can I forget about her? She's the one and only who ruined our lives. Olivia talking about Laura. God help me where I'm now. The issue between us is coming out again.
"Fuck that go and sit on your desk. I don't want anyone here around me. Especially someone else who doesn't care about anything." His eyes are straight on me like he wants me to get out. The dark eyes haunted me in dreams now standing watching me.
With anger
Or pain
"Sorry sir but I'm not coming. She's your last option and I'm just here to inform you. Good day." She winked with a smile and left. There's only me and Ronald. The silence is killing us. He mumbled something in anger.
"Leave right now before I change my mind." How can I leave? This is my job. The rent and other Bill's already paid. What no? It's my last option here. No
"I'm sorry Ronald.."
"First rule, give respect to your boss. Mr. Ronald." Fine.
"Sorry Mr. Ronald but I'm your new secretary and you have no choice here. Give me one month I can prove myself and if you don't like my work then you can fire me." I said in confidence. He's on the spot watching me but then the footsteps coming towards me until he's standing closer enough.
"You don't even know where you're falling. Remember my last words that I said to you." How can I forget? Never. Our eyes locked and a smirk placed on his face. He knew.
We know
Leaning closer, his smell hit my nose. Rich and flavourful. The smell is enough for me to fall for him again but stop here.
"Welcome to hell baby. Count your days here and I'm going to show you what the hell means on earth." He leaned closer and closer. The rich masculine scent mixed with perfume filled in my lungs now. It's fresh but not something I used to remember.
"Are you ready for your punishment?"
"Wh.... what's that mean?"
"This means..." His hand came up and with a finger he pushed me a little back. The fear suddenly came out again. I remember everything.
The push
Falling
A scream comes from my mouth but something catches me this time and it's Ronald. His arm circles around my waist. For a moment I was gone. He never knew what happened after he left. His eyes changed.
"What happened Rose?" He smiled and suddenly again his arm left my waist and I fell again and again. My ass landed on the mattress. My eyes closed hard. The darkness, the sirens and doctors. Heavy tears coming from my eyes.
"Clean the mess and I left some files on your desk. You have only half an hour." Then he left and left me crying. Why? I need to control myself here. He left me in confusion. The person I want to know is not here. The person I want to love is not here. Wiping my tears I stand and start cleaning his bedroom. The empty foil pocket and a used condom on the floor. So he's with a girl last night. Don't care.
How many girls did he know? He's being physical with every girl? Wait! I'm not his maid. This is not my work. Throwing everything I came and standing while he's sitting on his chair, eyes on laptop.
"Call someone else I'm not your maid." He stopped immediately.
"Come again."
"I said call your maid or someone else, it's not my work." Without waiting for his answer I turned and walked away. Before I opened the door someone crashed into me. A body.
Soft
Girl
Jessie
She screamed and jumped on me when her gaze landed on me. We both landed hard on the floor. Shit! My ass. It hurts.
"Jessie my ass. Stop now! You're heavy." Her whole weight on me. I hear Ronald mumbling something but still Jessie is in her repeat mode.
"Oh my god. You're here. I can't… "
"Jessie Jesus got up." Her arms are tight around me. Her girly perfume filled my nose. I like it. Home is what I want now. The most precious girl in front of me.
"I'm so sorry." With heavy breath she got up and helped me to stand. But my eyes stop immediately on her. She's not a girl anymore. She's a woman. Perfect curves and beautiful dressing with perfect set hair and makeup. The glowing skin, matching expensive suit.
"Wow Jessie! You're beautiful." Her eyes fell immediately on me when she saw me.
"You look..." Yes awful, disgusting and poor. That's me.
"Changed." But her eyes tell me something else. I'm now in a better situation than last time.
"You're here why don't you just call us and wow you're Ronald secretary that's cool. I hear your name outside. First I thought it's someone else but when Olivia explained it to me I came here immediately. After all, for the first time someone is going to rule over Ronald." He rolls his eyes and body stands.
"Shut your mouth here Jessie and get out right..."
"Good god who's here?"
No
No
She's here again. She's not that woman everyone knows. She's the real witch. My body left all the heat and went cold and numb. Her humourist voice hummed in the whole room. She's looking like the perfect example of being a rich person. Her wrinkled face hides behind expensive makeup. Short coloured hair matching her fake smile.
"Mr...mrs Laura." I said with a shaky breath. Jessie and Ronald's expressions changed immediately.
"Oh dear it's so good to see you again." She came forward and hugged me. But this hug was filled with hurt. Her sharp nails digging in my arms. I stand still, motionless. Why is she so touchy?
"Mom, why did you sign her resignation letter?"
"She needs to move on and don't worry now we found a better one. After all, Rose also needs to learn something and Ronald never disappointed me." She patted my cheek and smiled. Why is her words not matching with her actions? My eyes are running between Laura and Ronald. Both give me different vibes.
Negative
"Well if you still want to work here then you have only fifteen minutes and your time starts now." He marched towards his table and left me standing there.
"Tonight drink and dinner at my home."
"I'm...
"She's working with me." Ronald cut my words with his sharpness.
"Come on brother, she's back."
"So?"
"So I'm inviting her." Before anyone said anything to her Jessie hugged me and left. Just Laura and me. Her dark eyes ran on my face with little anger. I know she hates me. Following Jessie's footsteps she turns but stops immediately.
"So tell me how's your life Mrs. James?"
How?
She winked and left me cold. "On your desk."
"Y.. yes Mr. Ronald." My boss's voice takes me in reality and now my time or punishment starts here.
Working with Ronald is different or difficult for me. He's always angry at people. I'm shocked after seeing his new look. But he's something else. His body looks fit under his shirt and the muscles flex when he grabs something. My office is far away from him but I can see him every moment. He's wearing a tight shirt and a perfect blazer and when he turns my legs are going weak and I hold my chair tight. My phone beeps. Our eyes met.
I picked
"Eyes on work and your time is up."
Oh Shit!
