Billionaire's Treasure

Revise, Revise, Revise

TREASURE’S POINT OF VIEW

“Whoa! I didn’t know how we survived that super awkward elevator ride!” Dior said as we arrived at my office.

“Yeah! My goodness, thank goodness he didn’t ask a lot of questions and he didn’t mention Ms. Naomi.” I said and then sits on my chair.

“HAHAHA! By the way, do you want to have lunch together?” He asked me as he stands up from his chair.

“Yeah sure, why not,” I said while smiling at him.

“That’s good to hear. Then see you later?” He said and then I just nod at him before he leaves. Ah! I can’t still move on about that intense elevator ride earlier! I was about to start doing the weekly report for this week when the office’s telephone rings so I immediately answered it.

“Good morning this is Ms. Miller may I know your concern?” I said as I answered the call.

“Good morning Ms. Miller can you come here to my office at this moment?” President Smith said with a calm tone.

“President Smith! Good morning of course I will be there.” I said and then he immediately ended the call without responding. Tsk! What an attitude. After that call, I immediately head to his office because of all the people he is the least you want to wait for you. As I head inside his office he is surprisingly alone because usually, Mr. Wyatt is with him.

“Good morning President Smith.” I greeted him and then stand in front of his table.

“Did you double-check the monthly report you passed yesterday?” He asked me with his brows cross.

“Ah yes sir, in fact, I checked three times and everything is fine. Why sir are there any errors?” I asked him and then he laid on his tables all the papers.

“There are no errors in fact it’s fine, but I need it and I want it to be perfect. You have your paper and pen on you right?” He said so I immediately opened my notebook and ready my pen.

“Yes Sir!”I said and then he started pointing out the things that need revision.

“So, the first page should be appealing unlike this. Use more appropriate font and you guys don’t need this fancy design.” He said and then crumpled the paper he’s holding. Geez! That was from Dior’s department.

“Here’s another one oh by the way I forgot to tell you from which department that front page came from. It’s from the Research and Development Department A.” He said so I immediately wrote it down even though I already knew that it was from Dior’s department. Hours have passed and he is still going on and my hand is kind of swollen from writing non-stop.

“I guess that’s all.” He said and my brain automatically said ‘thank goodness’ because he’s finally done!

“Is that all Sir?” I asked him and then he just nods at me before throwing all the papers in his trash bin.

“Then I shall take my leave, Sir,” I said and then immediately leave his office. As I head inside my office that’s when I take a deep breath and exhaustedly put down the notebook on my table.

“Ah! I didn’t know he is such a perfectionist!” I said to myself and then double-check the things that I need to revise first, and just by looking at it, I can’t think how should I start. So, I decided to call Dior because he has the most papers that need revision.

“Hey, Dior! I need you here in my office right now.” I said and then ended the call. I knew I sounded mean and such as but I am just so stressed right now seeing all the things I need to work on. While waiting for Dior I started to revise some of the papers I can revise and so on it is going fine. After a few more minutes I heard a knock from my door and later saw Dior’s face.

“Why do you called me here Ms. Miller?” He asked politely which made me burst into laughter.

“HAHAHA! Oh my goodness I’m sorry about my tone earlier I am just so stressed over the paper works that I need to revise and it mostly came from your department!” I said and then get my notebook laying on my table and then gave it to him.

“Since I am the one that needs to revise this I just want to ask for your recommendation on how I can make this perfect!” I said and then he sits on the chair in front of me while reading the notes I took earlier. It took him a minute to read all of the revisions from his department and I can see the disappointment as well as the frustration all over his face.

“Wow! This is the first time ever I need to revise a lot!” He said and then gave back my notebook.

“Usually I only need to revise a little bit of my report but now it looks like I need to revise all of my reports!” He added and I can hear the frustration from his voice.

“I never thought he is such a perfectionist!” I said and then massaged the temple of my head. This is so stressful!

“By the way, I am going to help you with revising my report after we eat our lunch.” He said and then stands up from the chair while laying his hand in front of me so I immediately accepted it and also stands up from my chair. I didn’t notice that while we are walking he is still holding my hand so the moment I opened the door I was so surprised when I saw President Smith in front of us while looking at our intertwined hands.

“So, are you guys in a relationship already?” He asked and then shakes his head before going back to his office. I was about to call him for clarification but there is no voice coming out from me. Geez! He misunderstood us!

“Don’t mind him Treasure. I’m sure he doesn’t care seeing us like this.” He said and then shows our hands still intertwined.

“Yeah! HAHAHA, ahm let’s go?” I said and then he just nods at me before we started walking again. But I don’t know why, President Smith’s face is still lingering in my mind. Why does he look so mad while looking at our hands?!

“Hey! Are you listening? Don’t worry about the report we will definitely help you!” He said so I just immediately nod at him even though I didn’t understand a single thing he said. As we reached the cafeteria of this company I am wondering why most of the employees and cafeteria staff are looking at us until I remember that I am still holding Dior’s hand so I immediately unclasped it and then looked down.

“Don’t mind them. They just put malice on everything.” He said so I just nod at him.

“You should go find a vacant table for us, I will be the one going to order our food.” He added so I just nod at him again and then look for a vacant table but I’ve been searching for a minute or two but I can’t find any vacant table.

“Ms. Miller!” I heard someone called me from my back so I immediately looked behind me and saw Mr. Scott with his teammates waving at me so I immediately head towards him to greet him.

“Hi, Mr. Scott!” I said while smiling at him.

“Hi Ms. Miller by the way I heard there is a lot of revision that President Smith told you to do, is that true?” He asked me and then pull a seat for me.

“Yeah! And I truly need your help because it is just my first time to encounter such problems.” I said and then he held my hand then looked at my eyes while smiling.

“Don’t worry Ms. Miller we will definitely help you the way we helped the former over-all-secretary of this company. Just message us and we will definitely come to your office.” He said which made me smiled because I can feel how they accepted me warmly.

“Thank you Mr. Scott then if you are not busy you can come with us after we eat lunch,” I said

“We will definitely be there.” He said and then we talk more about President Smith and how perfectionist he is. Mr. Scott told me that the reason why his former personal secretary resigned from her job was that President Smith bullied her.

“Why did the president bullied her?” I asked him

“Because she fought back to President Smith. She declined every command coming from the president if it wasn’t in the scope of her work and it pissed President Smith big time so what the president did is that he started to pull pranks on her and boom she can’t take it anymore and resigned.” He said and right after he speaks I saw Dior on his back so I waved my hand at him to catch his attention.

“Hi, Mr. Scott!” He said and then put the tray of our food on the table.

“Hi Dior, so how’s the revising?” Mr. Scott asked Dior.

“Ah we still haven’t started anything yet but most of the papers that need to revise were from my department and it’s kind of embarrassing for Ms. Miller.” He said and then scratch his head while looking at me.

“No worries Dior we can manage to revise that and make it a perfect paper!” I said and then we started eating our lunch. After that, we immediately head back to my office and started the revision. It was a fun and productive day and surprisingly we managed to finish it all.

“Wow! We are already done!” Mr. Scott said while smiling. I immediately looked at my wristwatch when I saw how dark is it when I looked outside. I was so surprised when I saw it was already 9:30 pm.

“Hey guys, I think we should wrap it up! If there’s anything you want to add or change we can do that tomorrow.” I said and then we started packing all of our things. I never thought that working here is so exhausting and yet so enjoyable.

“Bye!” We just parted ways as we head outside the building because our houses are in a different direction.

“You should ride with me Treasure. It’s already late.” Dior said while standing beside me.

“Thanks, Dior! Buses are already rare to see at this time.” I said and then we started walking to the parking lot. While on our way home, we are just listening to some lo-fi music and it kind of makes me so sleepy. I didn’t notice that I already fell asleep and I only woke up when someone pokes my face.

“Hey! Treasure we are already here,” Dior whispered softly into my ears.

“Oh my goodness I’m sorry!” I said and then wiped my mouth because I can feel that I drool.

“HAHAHA! No worries, by the way, I already sent you in front of your house so you won’t need to walk anymore.” He said which made me smiled because he is so thoughtful.

“Thank you so much Dior!” I said and then head outside his car.

“Take care on your way home!” I said and then waved at him. He rolled his window down and then waved at me before leaving. Maybe we are not that lucky when it comes to our boss, but we are so lucky when it comes to our colleagues.
