Episode 1

The work is a spin-off of (A SURPRISE FOR THE CEO)

Giane

Exactly seven days ago, my life turned upside down.

I can't go to work with "Enthusiasm" because my "former" boss is back and worse than before.

Even in my house, which I considered a place of peace, has turned into a complete nightmare. Exactly one week ago, a new neighbor moved in and won't leave me alone with his companions who scream louder than a newborn calf.

"Ohhhhh this," someone moaned on the wall next to me. The balcony railing was practically the same, and I'm sure that if I went outside now, and if it wasn't for my blackout curtain, I would see live pornography.

"What a hell," I shouted and stood up, stomping my feet on the way to the kitchen to make coffee. It was six in the morning, who spends the night f*cking and still does it in the morning? "I can't take it anymore, I'm going to complain to the building manager."

"Talking to yourself, honey?" my mother said, appearing in the kitchen with a suitcase, and I grimaced. "Don't forget that this apartment was a gift."

"Which turned into a nightmare," I concluded and she smiled, whether at me or towards me, I wasn't sure. "I am very grateful to Mr. Parker for helping us so much, but I think it's time for me to grow a pair and rent an apartment that gives me some peace."

"Oh, how long has it been since you f*cked, Giane?" my mother asked, and I spit out the coffee.

"MOM," I yelled, embarrassed, and went to find a cloth to clean up my mess. Did we live in a penthouse? Yes. Did we have a maid? No, because the apartment wasn't even ours.

"Oh, come on, my daughter, let the young ones be happy. You should do the same," she said, and I crossed my arms as I stood in front of my mess.

"Let the young ones do that, right? But it's not me who is running away," I said, pointing to her suitcases.

"I'm going to spend a few days at your aunt's house," she said, and sometimes those days of hers would last for months. "I love you, my daughter, don't get into trouble, find someone to make up for lost time."

"For God's sake, enough," I said, focusing on cleaning. "You are my mother, you should set an example."

"You've been stressed like this ever since Peter became your boss again," my mother said, and I bit my lip to keep from saying anything. It was incredible how that idiot toyed with my heart, but if he avoided me first because I did the same, I never chased after a man and I'm not going to humiliate myself for him who can't see the truth right in front of his eyes. I still held a grudge against everything he said that day, but I remember the punches Paul threw, and my anger subsides. "Look, my daughter, he doesn't know the truth."

"He doesn't want to believe the truth, Mom, it's different," I said and sighed. "I don't care either."

"Come here, drop that cloth," she said, throwing the cloth away, and I pouted knowing that I would have to pick it up. I went into her arms and hugged her tightly. "I love you, my baby, now go get ready for work. Mom will call every day, okay?"

"I love you," I declared, and she squeezed me before stepping away, shaking her bracelets on her arms.

I took my mother to the elevator, and as soon as I did, the hag from the apartment next door came out with wobbly legs and a satisfied smile on her face.

"Good morning," she said when she approached with a smug smile on her lips.

"Good morning for who?" I said, and instantly the woman widened her eyes. I was in a bad mood, barely had my coffee, and on top of that, I didn't sleep a wink because there was a hag in the apartment next door. "You know, now I need to work, and I couldn't sleep because there was a hag in the apartment next door. Next time, there's a motel on the corner."

"Giane," my mother reprimanded me and pointed to the apartment. I went inside since I needed to get ready. Was I being childish? Yes, I was. But I really hadn't slept at all, and that had a big impact on my mood.

To top off my day, my car wouldn't start. My Mini Cooper meant everything to me, the result of my hard work.

"Sir, I know I haven't been a good daughter, but do you mind fixing my car?" I asked and turned the key again, luckily it didn't start "Are you kidding me?"

I looked at the clock and it was twenty minutes to go, how can someone wake up early and still be late? I don't know.

I got out of the car that won't start and went to the street to hail a taxi, which arrived quickly as the street I live on is busy.

"Fera hasn't arrived yet, Giane" my friend said and I thanked her as she handed me a cup of coffee "here's the coffee."

"You're an angel" I thanked her, giving her a kiss on the cheeks and at that moment, as I was about to run to the elevator, I stumbled.

"One of these days, you'll kill yourself, girl" Mr. Toby said and I smiled shyly."

I went up to the floor of the presidency and almost cried at the thought that my dear boss Paul is not here, and now I have to put up with that insensitive idiot.

Twenty minutes later, the owner of my heart and my hatred arrived, with his perfectly combed hair, a shaved beard, and his usual rogue smile, his perfume was heavenly.

"When Stella comes up, send her straight to my office" he said, and I stared at him. Where's the good morning? Besides having to put up with these two and my new neighbor, I don't even deserve a simple good morning?

"Idiot" I mumbled and he stared at me as he passed by his door.

"Rude" he said and slammed his office door. I felt like spitting in his damn coffee. Is it too much to ask for my dear boss to come back? Why didn't Mr. Parker stay in his place instead of going to Brazil? Doesn't he pity me?
