"Kents Corp. The home of dreams" I read aloud as I reached in front of the humongous building. I mean how many storeys is it?But since I don't got time to count, and I need to meet someone right now, let's just go in.
"HI, I have an appointment with Mr. Bruce Kent and it's by 7: 30"
"Okay, just hold on a minute" the really sexy looking receptionist tells me. Why do they need such people working as receptionist?
I mean she looks like she just popped out of a PlAYBOY magazine. With the blonde hair, and the baby face, small lips, blue eyes, and the G-cup sized boobs. What is the use of looking so endowed?
Her body is a Hundred times different from mine right now. Maybe that's why I never get these jobs. Maybe if I used my other body, then I'll get more jobs. Who knows?
"7:30., Penelope Dickman?" I could sense a hint of humor in her voice as she said my name, but since I wasn't here for her today, I'll just pretend I didn't hear nothing.
"Yes. That's right, I'm Penelope Dickman."
"May I know your business with Mr Kent?" she asks, and the more she talks, the more annoying her voice was sounding to me.
"I just got hired to be his assistant." for a single second, just that small tiny second, I saw her eyes check me out, and she even scoffed in a whisper. That's right, she whis-scoffed.
"Okay, that's what it says here too. You can go up. 31st floor." She says with that annoying smile on her face, and I'm thinking right now, I want to have her for dinner.
But, hold the thought. Let's get the biggest fish first.
Bruce Crazy Kent.
I majestically walk away from her, and I could feel her eyes were still on my retreating figure, but she's no longer my business. At least not for now.
I enter the elevator, and punched the 31st button. There was this weird looking girl behind me. I could swear she was dying to start up a conversation with me. She had really big eyes. And I tried not to look at them, but they kept on looking at me.
"Hi" I say first, as the elevator ride was getting creepy. And usually I make enclosed places creepy for others, but right now she was making it creepy for me.
"HI!!" I flinched, hitting my back on the elevator as she finally opened her mouth. First I look around if there was a speaker somewhere inside the elevator, or maybe she was wearing a microphone?
But it was neither. That was just her voice. Her very loud annoying voice.
"My name is Evelyn" she continues, and I'm wondering if she didn't have a lower pitch than this annoying and ear bursting A6 sound.
For heavens sake, she sounds like dolphins laughing into a bloody Megaphone. And the elevator kind of amplified her voice.
"Nice to meet you Evelyn" I guess.
I was really hoping it would end there. I mean what more could she ask a stranger.
"Are you going to 31st floor?" Heaven help me, I really can't take this much longer. She's still talking. My aim today is Bruce Kent, nothing else, just Bruce Kent.
"Yes." I made my response as short and precise as I could, hoping she'd get the hint that I don't want to continue this conversation.
But it is either she is just one hundred percent dumb, or she was really, really, really just trying to make me crazy.
"I work there. But I haven't seen you on this floor before, are you here to see someone? A friend? A boyfriend? Who are you here for?"
"I just got a job. With Mr. Bruce Kent." my breathing was starting to intensify, her sharp voice was ruining my eardrums, I swear, anymore word from her, and I would make sure she kisses a snakes tongue.
"Really, I work with Mr. Bruce. He's my direct boss."
And that was it, I could not take it anymore, the full length of my right arm was already morphing into a beautiful tiger rattle snake. She brought this upon herself. I can't think straight when there's too much noise.
And she just kept on talking, non stop. In that ridiculously high pitch.
With a swift turn, too swift for her to even notice, I launch at her, my hands up in the air to strike her...
*DING* my arms instantly turn back to normal as the stupid door finally dings open.
"did you want to tell me something?" she asks as she now realized that I was standing in front of her.
"something was stuck in your hair" I effortlessly lie, taking away the invisible thing that was on her hair, before turning to walk out.
But then she's walking out with me., I take a step forward, and she does the same. I take two steps forward, and she does the same., I speed up a little and she does the...
"Why are you following me huh? Why? What do you want huh? What? What? What??" I frustratingly ask her, barely holding my voice down.
"I'm not following you, I told you, I work here too." oh, she did say that. God, it's like she's messing with my head.
"Come on, I'll show you where Mr. Kent's office is. Come on"
She touched me... Heavens save her today, for she touched me.
No, correction, she's touching me.
I hate it when girls touch me. Well I hate it when anybody touches me without permission, but I hate it the most when girls do it. Especially pretty girls like her.
Right now, I'm thinking of cutting off her fingers with crocodile teeth.
"Here we are. This is Mr. Kent's office." her annoying voice instantly snapped me out of my thoughts.
"and he's inside." She says, and I just nod to her, thinking finally she'll let me be, and I wouldn't even be working here past today, so I won't have to deal with her after this.
Because if I had to continue dealing with her, then I'll definitely chop her fingers with crocodile teeth, tear her limbs when I'm a lion with my strong limbs, and then turn into a tiger and just rip out her throat with my massive teeth.
Before finally smashing her head with my Harlequin bat. All this and more was what I wished to do to her. But bless her soul I won't be here past today.
But then she says something to me, and for the first time in a long time, I was sincerely shocked.
She says... "Now stop thinking of ripping me apart in those forms and first get on with your new boss."
And that wasn't the creepy part. The creepy thing was that, she was talking to me, and her lips weren't even moving. She was in my head.
How creepy is that??
Hmph!
