She alighted and the man who was sent to fetch her alighted too. She is receiving great treatments for a job she doesn't even know the description. For goodness sake, she doesn't even know what she had signed the night before.
She was familiar with the ROVING HEIGHTS group of companies. She had even worked in one of their branches when she was still a university student.
The company is actually a big name. Talk of manufacturing, distribution, insurance, production, sales, marketing, they deal in many forms of enterprises.
The man led the way and they were soon in the elevator. The man pressed 8 in the elevator machine The building is as tall as sixteen floors. It is that tall.
They soon got to the eighth floor and they exited the elevator. There was josh waiting for them… for her. She was glad. She has a lot of questions to ask him.
“ Hey Natasha Baltimore, how have you been. I'm glad you are here now” Josh said rushing to her side.
Tasha stared at Josh. Why does he looks so different now. He was so contrasting with the one that wore baggy jeans and designs chains Last night. This Josh was dressed in a cooperate outfit and he was speaking formally.
“Yes… I am fine… You?” Tasha said stuck of what to say.
“Let us go to meet the boss” Josh said ignoring her question. Everyone seems to be moving fast.
He led her to a door and they entered. It was a large office room with round tables and chairs.
“Sit down” Josh said gesturing her to sit down. She sat down she thought he said they were here to see the boss. Where is the boss?
“ So I need to brief you about somethings before the boss arrives. He would be here shortly” Josh said tossing some documents to her Like last night.
“The boss will talk about the pay. You will stay in his house for the period of six months. You will only be allowed to go home today to get your things, that is if you feel like.” Tasha heard him saying.
Six what? And what house is he talking about? She glanced at him and he nudged her to look at the document in front of her.
She stared at the document and read on. Six months contracts?! Exclusive accomodation. Do CEOs bidding? She read on as sweat beads sprang from her face. What traumatized her most is the fact that her signature was at the end of the page. How did she got into this mess? She really is in the soup.
She glanced at Josh who did not notice anything.
“When did I sign this?” She exclaimed.
Josh stared at her like she was saying something stupid.
“Ehrmmn, josh you see, I was indisposed last night when I was signing this, I was drunk. Please can I overule this?” She said and Josh stared unbelievably at her.
“What do you mean Tasha” he asked.
“ I …mean…..I….I. was…..”
Just then, the door opened and the boss came in.
