Chapter 11 - MEETING MY BOSS 2

Louisa and Anita got home and shared the good news with her family. Her mum and brother were super excited for her and even thanked Anita for coming to Louisa's rescue before she went berserk and they ended their night with a bottle of champagne courtesy Anita.

Louisa couldn't sleep at night, she kept on looking at her phone to see if it's time already, it wasn't even up to 4:30am when she got up from her bed and started preparing for work, she arranged her room, went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for her family before going to take her bath. By 6:02am, she was fully dressed for work.  She wore a blue corporate gown that has a touch of black. Then she paired it with her black heeled shoe, she was not the make-up kind of person but she had to look sharp for her new job so she did a light makeover and finally let her wig cascade over her shoulders and she was looking not less than breathtaking. 

The door to her room flew open and she met the smiling face of her mum.

Good morning, mummy how was your night?

It was good and I think it is even about to get better after bumping into this stunning beauty. She said smiling

Mummy, you sure know how to sway someone with words anyways thank you so much, besides I took this beauty from you.

That is true dear, aren't you too early for this work.

No mum, besides my boss is strict with time so I just have to be there on time, I do not want to make a bad impression on my first day of work.

That is good, I prepared something else to add up to the one you made, let's go now and eat so you don't be late.

Ok mama, what about Michael?

Your sleeping beauty of a brother is still sleeping, he refused to wake up but don't worry cold water will do the magic, she said with a playful grin. Louisa shook her head with a smile, she does not know how such a playful and carefree person turned out to be her mum, and her love for her knew no bound. They got to their dining table; her mum had already set the table. The aroma coming from the food blew past Louisa's nostril. Mum I cannot wait to taste this; it smells so yummy.

Okay beautiful, let's dig in, they both ate in silence, when Louisa was done with her meal, she wanted to take her dish to the kitchen when her mum stopped her.

That is okay Louisa, do not worry, I will take them to the kitchen, start heading to work now, she kissed her mum on the cheek and bided her farewell.

She boarded a cab that took her to her office, at about 6:49am she was already at her office premises, she went to the receptionist and they greeted her like one of them, 

Good morning ma, boss said that you should wait at his office, when you come.

Has he been here already? Louisa asked with shocked fully etched on her face.

Yes ma, he was here very early this morning.

What? But I'm early as well. Where did he go? Sorry for bombarding you with too many questions but the thing is I am.... She did not get to finish her sentence when the receptionist helped her out.

It's okay ma, there is no need for you to be scared, he just came unusually early and I am sure he does not expect you to be here at that time, as for me, he asked me to be here very early. Here is his spare key that he said I should give you.

The explanation gave Louisa a little bit of relieve, she calmed her nerves and thanked the receptionist.

She headed towards his office, and she kept greeting all the workers. Some smiled at her while some gave her attitude; which was the least of Louisa's problem, she opened his office with the spare keys handed over to her by the receptionist and entered into the office. She sat and waited patiently for him while she let her eyes roam over the beautiful art works in the office.

At about 10:am, she was feeling bored already and her boss hasn't shown up, she decided to call her mum at least to calm her jilt nerves and ease her boredom when the door flew open and her eyes immediately went to the person who just disrupted her move. It was none other than her boss.

Good morning sir, she greeted as soon as he came closer.

Good morning Louisa, he answered indifferently, I see you are here already.

Louisa was furious due to his words but she tried to mask it. How can he keep me here over two hours and finally when he comes in, he cannot apologize for keeping me waiting or rather explain where he went to yet I'm going to be his P.A. 

Brian cleared his throat to gain her attention when he noticed that she kept creasing her brows while been engrossed in a world of her own.

Miss Louisa, welcome to the organization once again. As I said, I am going to give you some pointers on what your work is going to look like, let's say that's going to be your experience today while I organize a meeting to introduce you to everyone in this organizations. So prepare to familiarize yourself with them.

Louisa only nodded her head in agreement; she does not have an option though.

Okay sir, for now where will I stay?

Excuse you? Brian did not get her clearly, because she was rather murmuring than voicing out whatever she wanted to stay.

I said, where will I be staying, I mean an office where I will stay.

I see, Brian got up from his seat, walked to another door in his office, and then opened the door revealing another beautiful office to Louisa. Louisa was in awe due to the magnificent office, she knew the office is big but she did not know it had other offices inside.

Okay sir, that will be all for now.

Brian picked up his phone and dialed his secretary's number. In one ring, she picked the call.

Hello Grace, he did not allow Grace to return his getting when he went straight to the point. I want you to call for a meeting, all my staffs should be present especially my shareholders in the next thirty minute, and they should all be at the common room. 

Okay sir. With that, he cut the call.

To Louisa, she kept thinking how the other staff would be like; I pray they are welcoming because the last thing I want is to add to my problems.
