Working With Alfonso

CHAPTER THREE

Aurora Giordano (POV)

Hearing the alarm this morning made me grumpy, so the only expression on my face is grogginess.

Its been over two weeks since I started working, its been amazing......and annoying.

Why? Let me tell you what happened.

Flashback

"Miss Giordano bring me the file".

"Miss Giordano I need my coffee".

"Miss Giordano clean my shirt...it was stained by your coffee".

"Miss Giordano why are you late".

"Miss Giordano give Mr Eugene this letter".

All this for just one person, I swear if it warrant me to scratch those eyes of hers I won't hesitate.

And come to think of it, she's having a crush on Mr Eugene in the accounting department.

That's why that letter. its surely a love letter.

Seriously we aren't in highschool, but Mrs Katherine isn't going for that.

Wait...wait a minute, both of them should be married since there are been called Mr and Mrs.

Gosh! She must be cheating.

Well I don't know about mr Eugene, but I do know that on her desk she has a picture of a man with her.

Wonders shall never end, some people don't have shame.

Mrs Katherine doesn't know it because shame is her nickname already.

Presence

I couldn't let that minor stuff to make me weak to quit.

Right now am in the lunch room with some colleagues. There have been so helpful and nice to me and surely a talkative at that.

There main discussion of today is Mrs Katherine, well that is expected with the way she behaves.

Its isn't my business, my only concern and focus is my work that is all.

We finished the delicious food and went back to our respective station.

I just finished a design of a portable music player, its very handy and usable.

With various talented people who came before me, I don't think I have a chance.

I would really love for my design to be show case.

"Aurora have you finished" james asked.

I smiled and showed him my work and he gave me a big thumbs up.

James is very friendly guy, he does his work with all diligent and doesn't take rubbish.

He's nice and caring, reminding me of my grandpa.

I sighed which gained james attention.

"You okay?"he asked worriedly, I won't blame him the eyes bags under my eyes says it all.

I gave him a small smile and nodded.

He was about to say more, when I heard giggling from the rest workers.

What is so amusing?, what are they talking about?.

"Aurora have you seen him" Beatrice asked.

"Who?".

She rolled her eyes and sigh.

"You really need to be here........your body is but your soul isn't".

I rolled my eyes nonchalantly.

"The boss brother".

"Eh".

"Mr Andino brother......I mean the one in charge of running this place, his brother......b-r-o-t-h-e-r".she blabbed.

"I know the alphabet you giraffe" I whisper yelled.

She cleared her throat and continued.

"His brother has been here since two weeks, I and the others saw him with is bodyguard entering the building".

"Just imagine that face, even though he wore eye glass.....imagine the way his brother will look like" she said dreamily.

This girl doesn't have any work to do.

"Take this document and complete the formalities, it seems you are in need of hand work".

She scrunched her nose and left.

"She really do know how to talk" james laughed.

I joined in too.

"I've seen his brother but haven't seen our boss face.....its not even in the Internet"he said.

"Woah.......I thought its only girls that stalk men on social media, I didn't know you've joined the group" I joked.

He smiled and went back to his cubicle.

Yes, we all haven't seen the boss....and yes I did google on him.

I hope he isn't a strict boss or a grumpy one.....am the only one that fit in that curriculum.

****************

It already 6:30pm, remaining thirty minutes to go home and sleep.

I just finished another design and it needs to be submitted to mrs Katherine.

Am surprise that she Hasn't left yet, Normally she leaves at six. But today is different, this work supposed to be submitted tomorrow but since she's around why wait.

I got up from my chair with my work in my hand.

I strolled to her office door and before I opened it, I was hearing strange noise inside.

Is she in pain or she's doing a press up?.

I knocked but no answer, still the noise didn't stop.

Well she might be dying inside there and will need help.

I opened the door a little and stalked my head inside with one leg inside too.

I raised my head to be blinded instantly by the activities going on right now.

I blinked several times, to make sure am not seeing things or if have gone blind, but there were still there.

I uses my hand to quickly hold my mouth when I was about screaming.

This is beyond disgusting and unprofessional.

What a shameless people, what an abomination.

Mrs Katherine and Mrs Eugene were having a duel with their tongue.

I thought he wasn't that kind of person but this situation proves it all wrong.

I carefully took my phone from my skirt pocket and snap them.

I left quietly and walked to my station.

Don't judge me yet.....this picture will be a big advantage for me time to come.

I sat on my chair and continued my work like nothing happened.

"Why you still with the files" james asked.

"Hmm.....mrs Katherine said to submit tomorrow"I lied.

He shrugged and went back to his business.

We finally finished our work and went home, james was kind enough to drop me and am very grateful for that.

I entered into my apartment and search for Casey, her car is outside but she's isn't no were to be found.

I checked her room and nothing, I was about leaving the room when I heard sniffing coming from the bathroom.

I walked to the door and opened it, and the sight I came across broke my heart.

Casey was inside the bath tub, with her knees raised to her chest, her head down crying.

"What's it?".

She cried more, which was making me more worried.

"H...he broke up with me" she said.

"Michael?".

She nodded.

I sighed and hugged her.

"He doesn't deserve you.....he doesn't know what he would miss, you're an amazing person".

"He said am too plain and dull for him" she hiccuped.

I gritted my teeth, " he is the plain one and the dull type.....he basically look like a bamboo".

She laughed a little.

They have been dating for two years and in those two years I never liked him for her.

He always seemed off and weird.

Now that his true colours have shown, she's finally free from him.

"You will find a better guy" I cheered her up.

She nods and followed me out of her bathroom.

"Remember that you are special....don't let anybody criticism get to you"I calmly spoke.

Woah me saying those words....that's new.

"Today I will make you your favorite lasagna"I said.

"Okay"she replied.

She doesn't need him, she will find a better match that will love her and protect her.

Well for me.....nah...I don't think I fit in that.

Relationship isn't for me.

That is what she thought.
