Honestly I never liked the idea of remaining alone with said employer all night long. It unnerves me because he makes me nervous under his piercing gaze.
He's doing it right now as I try hard to concentrate on what I'm being tasked with.
I held the pen down a little bit too tight as I scribbled down notes taking note of my trembling fingers.
Look away, look away...
I began to chant and decided to end it.

"Mr Silva, can you please stop staring? It's hard to concentrate when you do so".
I spoke eyes glued to my work as I waited for a while for his response but nothing, I got nothing, not even a sharp glare nor his usual thorny words.
Walking across the spacious office to meet with said man. I dropped my completed task on his messy desk filled with drafts and sat down facing him, the desk creating a division between us.
This got his attention as he narrowed his cold eyes dangerously on my small form. I looked away feeling my confidence drain being under his scrutiny once again. I never could maintain eye contact with him, I get nervous.
Mr. Silva
"You have something to say. Tell me".
Maya
"Yes, I was about to tell you I want to quit my job".
