First Day

Before I walk in, I am mentally preparing myself for him to shout at me. I don’t wanna think negatively of my new boss however, I have heard things already and it is only my second day let’s just hope he’s in a good mood.

I walk into his office and he is staring at me. I’m not sure if it is in a positive way or a negative way however, I’m not going to let it bring me down.

“How are you this morning?”

I’m good thank you just a bit tired, didn’t sleep much but I brought you a coffee, black with only 2 sugars

“I didn’t even have to ask you to get me that coffee, thank you anyways, what is on my schedule for today Miss, Hinata?”

For today, you have a meeting at 8:30am and after that you need to visit the new office in West london and lastly, you need to approve of the design departments new ideas. All together, your day should finish at 4.pm

“ okay thank you Miss. Hinata, I will call you when it’s time for my meeting or just come here.

okay, thank you bye.

God that was so nerve racking. I was so scared he was going to say something to me about what I was wearing or about my posture or something little, but he didn’t. I’m surprised but the same time I don’t really know him so this could be how he’s actually like.

“ why do you so happy after coming out of office usually, his past secretaries would walk out crying he must have taken a liking to you because that is so weird”

Really I’ve never really gotten a vibe like he’s a bad person per se he seems alright maybe when he was talking to the other secretaries, he was in a bad mood or they did something for him to act like that everything happens for a reason anyways, I have to go. I need to do some paperwork for the meeting.

“ oh before you go, are you coming to your welcoming dinner?”

“Welcoming dinner? I was not aware that I was having a welcoming dinner no one said anything about it until now? Will see I’m not sure, but I really have to go.”

I walk off and make my way to my desk. I remember one thing from that conversation, his other secretaries came out of his office crying There must be a reason for that because he doesn’t seem like a bad person he would intentionally make someone mad or sad. Maybe they had a thing for him and didn’t reciprocate feelings and told them how it is. I don’t know either way to me right now he doesn’t seem like a coldhearted person. Everyone deemed him to be.

I have an hour and 10 minutes to get all of these notes taken down and I don’t want to miss anything so I need to crack on.

“ hey Miss Hinata, Mr Alec is calling you his office”

Oh shoot, thank you so much. I’m going to be on my way right now. I’m so confused I’m supposed to be doing paperwork for the meeting and taking notes. I hope he’s not mad at me for something.

I’ll make my way to his office again. This time. I am scared on the first day been called back to his office. I’m hoping he just wants another coffee.

Mr Alec I’m coming in now! Hey, what is that you needed me for sir?

“ yeah sorry to bother you. I know you’re working on some stuff for the meeting in an hour but is it okay if you could get me some more paper I run out and I need to take some notes as well”

Of course, I’ll be right back with a paper, I’m assuming you’d want lined paper sir?

“ Any paper it’s fine, I can write on plain paper as well, but if there is lined paper that would be more preferred. Thank you.”

Okay well I’ll be back in five minutes with your paper.

* draw shuts behind her*

Oh my God that had me shaking I had no idea whether or not he was going to say something bad about me or if he had something to complain about, but I’m glad it was just so I can get him some paper.

5 minutes later

I’m coming in Mr Alec I have the paper for you. They had lined paper so I got that for you and also I noticed that you’ve finished your coffee so I went out of my way to get you that too if that is okay .

“ I was just about to ask you to get me a coffee so I appreciate it thank you. You can get back to work now”

Will do I will be back in 45 minutes to take you to the meeting.

So far, I am very much enjoying being a secretary, but like I said this is just my first official day so anything could happen. I really need to finish this notes taken that I need to do before the meeting I do not want to disappoint him or get on his bad side.

After the meeting

Okay, Mr Alec next we have your office tour in West London that we need to go to. Don’t worry it starts at 12 pm so we could make a way there slowly.

“ thank you for letting me know we could leave now so we could get there earlier is there anyone who could drive a car available?”

Actually about that I looked for someone who is available to drive, and unfortunately no one right now can drive you to West London. However I do have a license and I own a car, so I could do the driving if you do not mind.

“ I appreciate you offering to drive, but I will drive”

Oh okay, sorry we should get in the car and go now we don’t wanna be late. We need to get there early so we’re on time.

Alec’s point of view

I’m driving to the destination where the new office is going to be. It’s all the way in West London so it’s going to be a 30 minute drive. I don’t mind to drive personally but I’m not sure how the new secretary is going to feel about it, not my business anyways.

Two hours later, we finish the tour around the new office and honestly I like it obviously there could be a few bits and pieces that I would want to be changed. However from what it looks like right now, I don’t particularly hate it.

“ sir, we have about half an hour to get back to the main office and then you need to have a look at the designs from the design department.”

Yes, thank you, Miss Hinata. My new secretary is good. She pays attention and she does everything on time which I appreciate because my other secretaries needed to be told to do things. This is her first day so I am going to try to not go hard on her.

We made it back to the main office and I am on my way to the design department. I hate going here because one of the employees whom I could fire has had a thing for me for four years and she just won’t give up so hopefully she doesn’t do anything. Stupid whilst I am there.

“Hey Alec how are you? How have you been?”

Call me Mr Alec, you are my employee and I am your boss stick to the rules or we’re going to have problems. I can’t stay for conversation I need to do my job. Thank you

I walk off the problem is she doesn’t listen. I don’t understand why she cannot take no for an answer. Once she tried to seduce me in my office at that point that should’ve been the breaking point for me to fire. But it is quite unfortunate. She is the best in my design department.

An hour later I finally finish work, my secretary is packet of things to go home as well. I need to speak to have a second before she does.

Hey Miss Jones, can you please bring Miss Hinata to my office?

“ yes I’ll do it right now”

I’m sure she has heard things about my personality and I don’t blame everyone for thinking like that. Everyone has bad days right but the new secretary is good.

“ hi sir you needed me”

Yes, I did, before you leave. I just wanted to tell you that you did good today and I appreciate you being on time. I just wanted to say I know there are things about me going around the office saying I’m cold hearted and I guess on most days I can be, but I have a lot of shit going on in my personal life, so if I am ever in a bad mood, it is nothing personal, I only have one wall for my secretaries. And I’m only saying this because it has happened every single time I got one.

I really don’t wanna spring this upon her because she probably doesn’t even feel anything romantically for me, but I have to say it is stupid that I have to, but at this point I need to

you’re not allowed to fall in love with me, seems very narcissistic I know but I’ve had to file six secretaries because of this situation and rumours started flying around and my father. The founder of this business was not very pleased about it so I’m sorry to spring this upon you, I know you probably have literally no feelings for me but I need to say it unfortunately.

“ oh okay, thank you for letting me know and telling me I haven’t heard that around the office. Everyone just says that you’re not a good person so I just assumed so sorry for thinking that but I will take that into consideration sir I’m going to go now”
