A petite girl with a height of 158cm looks beautiful in a beige blouse and a white half-calf skirt. High heels are installed beautifully on her smooth legs, her hands are hugging some files.
"Good morning, Mrs. Eleanora" greeted some people to that girl.
"Good morning" she replied kindly and a sweet smile appeared on her cherry-red lips.
She placed the file on her desk in front of the CEO's room. Her feet stepped into her Boss' room with her agenda in hand, her slender fingers knocked on the glass door first.
"Come in" the masculine voice that he hears every day is still as melodious in her ears.
" Good morning, sir. Does this morning's coffee suit your taste buds?" said the girl gently to Alessandro who was her boss, the CEO, and owner of the giant company where she worked.
"Morning, Eleanora. As usual, your coffee always suits my taste buds. Oh yeah, you went to the managers' room earlier to tell them to run the monthly meeting without me right?" asked Alessandro.
"Yes sir, they will do it without you. Then, I have changed your other schedule for today to tomorrow and another day. Is there anything else you need for now?" replied Eleanora.
"You also come with me to prepare for my wedding, okay?" Damian asked.
"Sorry in advance, sir. But why should I come?" asked Eleanora confused. It's not her who wants to get married, why did she come?
" Friskana doesn't have much time, so she asked me to bring you to help her choose. After all, you also have to measure clothes to be a bridesmaid, right?" Alessandro's future wife is named Friskana, indeed Eleanora knows her because she is often in and out of their office. And they even went out a few times together to spend time, it might be considered that they were friends.
"Okay, I'll get a permit from HRD first, sir," finally Eleanora said.
"No need, this includes out-of-office service. Your salary is still full" Alessandro's words made Eleanora heave a sigh of relief, seeing that Alessandro chuckled.
"Even though you've worked with me for almost 10 years, you still feel uncomfortable, don't you? Take it easy, Eleanora," said the man.
"Ah, it turns out that you've been working with me for quite a long time. You applied here shortly after graduating from high school at the age of 17 and immediately filled the secretarial position which was vacant at that time and survived until now at the age of 26," said Alessandro, remembering his first meeting with his secretary.
"That's right, sir. At that time, even I often scolded you for not understanding many things," said Eleanora, bringing up the behavior of her CEO a long time ago.
"I'm sorry, at that time I also just returned from abroad so I was annoyed to have to occupy this position not to mention accompanied by an inexperienced young secretary" laughed Alessandro jokingly.
"You should often laugh like that in front of other employees so that they won't be afraid of you, don't just laugh in front of me, sir," said Eleanora reminding Alessandro, who was always cold and indifferent to anyone other than herself.
"You have known me for a long time, they are different," said Alessandro.
"Yes, yes, it's up to you," snorted Eleanora who was annoyed with Alessandro's response every time she was reprimanded, always giving the same answer.
"The appointment time with Patricia's Boutique is at 10 and now it's 09:30 Sir, let's go," asked Eleanora to which Alessandro nodded.
They walked towards the company parking building until they arrived in front of Alessandro's sports car.
"Why are you silent, Eleanora? Come in" called Alessandro from the driver's seat.
"Where do I sit, sir? You didn't pick up Mrs. Friskana, did you?" asked Eleanora confused.
"Sit next to me, Friskana escorted by her driver" replied Alessandro. Eleanora got in and the car left for their destination boutique.
They arrived at the Patricia Boutique, owned by a well-known designer whose price for each dress is quite expensive. Eleanora was quite amazed by all the dresses they displayed on the mannequins, but she swallowed hard when she saw the terrible prices. Hundreds of millions for just one dress? Seriously! That was her total salary for half a year without being used at all.
"Hello, we meet again, Eleanora," said Patricia the boutique owner.
"Good morning, Miss Patricia," replied Eleanora in a friendly and polite manner.
"Oh come on, don't be so stiff even though we've met a few times" Patricia teased. While Eleanora just smiled awkwardly.
"Just relax, think of me as your friend okay? Call me Patricia and don't speak formally to me" Patricia urged impatiently. She wanted to be close to the woman who had accompanied her cousin for the last 10 years. She was curious, about what made Eleanora last so long when her cousin's nature was very annoying.
"Okay, Patricia" Eleanora finally answered. She knows Patricia's character who doesn't give up easily before getting what she wants.
" Hi, Honey. How long have you been here?" said Friskana who had just arrived and kissed Alessandro on the cheek.
"No, just now," replied Alessandro calmly.
"Hey, El. Thank you for coming with us." Friskana hugged Eleanora. There was a faint smell of male perfume coming from the tall woman's body. Eleanora frowned expelling the negative thoughts from her head.
"So, can we just get started? I still have a photoshoot scheduled before lunchtime."
Alessandro sighed tiredly hearing his future wife, the woman he had been dating for the past year, and finally decided to marry her because Friskana insisted. Alessandro, who felt he was mentally and financially ready, agreed to his girlfriend's insistence.
"Eleanora, have you taken measurements for the Bridesmaid dress?" asked Friskana.
"Already, ma'am," answered Eleanora politely because it was still working hours.
Patricia accompanies Friskana in trying on her wedding dress, where almost all of the dresses Friskana asks for advice from Eleanora and the woman still seems satisfied with the results of Eleanora's thoughts.
