Vanessa
It was after six in the night. Devin told me to be ready by seven so I was currently doing my hair. I made it into a bun before placing my small nub earrings in my ear. I decided on another black slippers that I had which had straps that reached my mid - leg.
I found my black purse and put some items in it to make it feel heavy - persons do that all the time. I glanced in the mirror once more. Small waist, very visible hips and my cleavage was full on display. I hope I didn't overdressed or dressed inappropriately because I wouldn't live the embarrassment down.
I left the room and started going downstairs. I slowed my steps when I noticed another man in a suit standing typing away on his phone. He had about the same height as Devin and he had a darker complexion to him. He was so deep in his phone that he didn't even notice my presence when I neared him.
"Hi"
Vanessa"I'm glad you came, nice dress by the way"."Thanks", I replied before taking a sip of my cocktail which consisted of lime and also coconut.We came back inside a little earlier and Julia and I have were having a conversation at the side of the room. After what Devin told me about Mordechai I developed this uneasy feeling. All I knew was that I didn't want to get involved with him at all, especially after what he did to my arm. He was rich and one wrong move from me could lead to something I didn't want."So, how is your work coming on?""Its fine", I say before glancing up stairs to see him talking to a woman dressed in a knee length dress. She screamed luxury from her matching accessories to the way her hair was designed."Oh, my husband is here", Julia said before walking off towards a man with a small beard
Vanessa"Did you see what the boss drove here this morning?", Akilah asked as we both cleaned the standing fridge together. I did see what the boss drove and I was puzzled because he didn't seem too rich and plus, this business is slow."I saw, wonder where he got the money from", I replied before going into the store room for the box juices and a few bottles of water. "Must have borrowed it from the bank", she said before helping me to stock the fridge."I don't see why thou. I mean - if it was me I would continue driving the car I had, then I would borrow the money and expand my business. Perhaps add another storey and serve a variety of different meals, maybe even have a bakery too", I replied before giving her a small smile.During my time working here, her personality was the top thing I admired about her. She was cool and easy to talk and that's a good thing. If persons spend more time smiling and being friendly to others they wouldn't be grumpy."Damn I love the way you think
Vanessa"You're joking right?"We all looked at the boss who's face was deadly serious. He shook his head no and that was when all of us sighed. I knew there was something off when he drove a new car to work that day. "So what are we going to do?", Erin shouted feeling the most depressed because he needed the money for his little sister. The boss threw his hands up looking sad as ever but I didn't care. This was all his fault and now the restaurant will be closed down because of bankruptcy.I felt kinda depressed also because finding another job could take weeks especially for a person who doesn't have a degree. I groaned before turning on my heel and leaving the place. Once outside I noticed that everyone else was leaving as the boss sat their with his head in his hands."This shit sucks", Erin said as we all nod in agreement. I felt for him because he has to take care of his little sister who was in a wheelchair. He had been taking care of her since their mom died and even thou per
VanessaI woke up feeling like I had drink too much last night. I got up and ran a hand through my messy hair. Romario popped into my mind and I remembered that he was here. What's worse was that Zed is near too. I was mostly afraid of him finding out that I was around. If he does find me he will either kill me or threaten me to work for him again - and I didn't want that.I left the bed and went to the bathroom to take a nice shower. It was still early which I was thankful for. My only hope today was to find a job and keep on the low. I hated the idea of hiding but I had no choice. I couldn't let them find me and take me, I stopped doing those jobs years ago and I wasn't going to start again. I wasn't that type of person anymore. After leaving the shower, I wrapped a towel around my body and left the bathroom. I dressed into something causal but had a hint of professionalism within it. A dark button up blouse and a pair of Jeans. I combed my hair into a messy bun before taking up my
Vanessa CollinsI groaned as I left my bed and went to open the door. My body felt overly tired and my knees felt wobbly. After unlocking it I saw Devin standing there with a large red box in his hand. "Morning, you look like you've been partying all night", he joked as I rolled my eyes and ran a hand through my tangled hair. It's gonna take a while to get it back to it's original state."Julia sent this for you - she told me about the deal you guys made".My mind went frozen for a few seconds before I regain my composure. I remembered that she knew about my past but apart of me hoped that she didn't tell anyone ; by the looks of it I don't think Mordechai knew about it. But why should I care if persons knew about it? Because I will be hated and humiliated or mocked. I also remembered that Zed saw me. I was so thankful he didn't catch me or else I'm afraid to even think what would've happen if he did."What did she tell you exactly?", I asked seeming natural like it's just a random
VanessaThe car came to a halt and the door was then opened for me. I exited and examined the tall building before me and then looking straight ahead. The first thing I noticed was the place was highly guarded and I didn't have to ask to know why."Follow me", the guy who drove me here said as I followed him up the stairs and into the building. As I stepped in, I continued following after him ignoring the stares from the persons who work here. Especially the men who's eyes were on my lower half. My heels clicked on the floor as we walked towards the elevator. I'm glad we didn't have to take any stairs. We went inside and the door closed as he pressed the button that led to the top floor. He started to straighten his tie before releasing it and placing his hands in his pocket."Here's something you need to know ; Franco is a well stern guy and he doesn't tolerate rudeness. Remember this deal is, well, basically your mission. If it goes well, which it must, Julia will be pleased and I'
VanessaAfter leaving the building, I noticed that Julia was here and she was talking to Mordechai. I also noticed Matteo and he was wearing a super bright green shirt and a pair of Jeans. He sure as heck loves his colours...I walked up to them as they stopped talking and Julia looked at me. Since I was so close to her I realized that she had a full makeup on, not really sure why perhaps she was going somewhere but, it was none of my business. And even if she was going somewhere ; it was inevitable because she was a business woman."The meeting went well ; It seems as if Franco has taken an interest in you if he actually wants to have dinner with you. But anyways, follow me to the car", Julia said as I walked past Mordechai who hasn't spared me a glance. I followed her to the car and she opened it and took out some papers and handed them to me."Here's the contract to sign but before you sign you should know, when you do have dinner with Franco, you must give him anything he wants. A
~Few days later~VanessaI didn't know how to exactly feel as I stood outside the building that I will be working in. I had never thought this would be a part of my life ; working in an office and for extremely rich people. I dressed in the most suitable outfit I could find: a black skirt and a flowing white blouse. I went up the stairs glancing at everyone who comes my way as I noticed how good they were dressed. Someone were dressed in working pants and flats whilst others wore skirts and heels. I made my way up to a woman who was on a phone as she wrote down something. "Hi, is Julia here?", I asked after she hung up the phone and gave me her attention."Who are you?, and to speak with Mrs. Lenetti you'll need an appointment"."I'm vanessa and I'm suppose to be working here", I replied feeling as if I was embarrassing myself. I thought Julia would've been here to get me settled in on what to do and when to do it...unfortunately not."Umm, give me a sec", she said before going ones
