〰️At Sparrow's Restaurant 〰️

"Thanks for meeting up with me." Mr Smith said breaking the silence." Have you changed your mind? "

" Before I answer your question, sir, I wanna ask you a question. "

" Okay. Go ahead. " He permitted.

" What job are you intending on offering me?"

"As you can see, Miss Parker, I thought about it too and I found out you're the best for the job. So in answer to your question, I want you to work as my secretary." He adjusted himself, then he continued." I wanna tell you something, a secretary stands as one of the pillars of a company. Without the secretary, the boss is helpless. "

" But sir, I haven't worked as a secretary before. Neither have I been with one before. I don't know how a secretary works and like you just said, they are one of the pillars of a company. I might bring your company down trying to be one. "

" So, what are you trying to say? "

" I'm trying to say that, I'd prefer if you employ me as a staff or your assistant secretary. "

He smiled looking down, then to her." I didn't just walked into Tatiana's Coffee shop because I wanted a hot coffee that morning. I walked in because of you. Miss Parker, I understand where you're coming from but... I've heard a lot about you, your Bio, I've got a lot information about you. Not that I'm spying on you, no. It's because I found out your the best for the job. "

She sighed softly...

" Like I always say, it's a fact of choice. I won't force you to work for me. Or I can still give you much time to think about it. "

" I don't need to think about it, I've already thought enough. "

" And what do you say about the offer? " He inquisitively asked.

" I agree to your offer but only on one condition."

"What condition?"

"I'd love you to talk to Mrs Tatiana. She wouldn't listen to me if I talk to her myself. I guess maybe a matured discussion is better. "

" Is that all? "

" I guess for now. "

He nodded." I'll give you a feedback after I'm done discussing with her. "

" Thank you,,, sir. "

Smith Enterprise and CO. as they say stands as the best company in the state. A chance for Myra to face her dreams of becoming someone meaningful in her life.

She didn't have to think over it a thousand times to figure out the right choice for her.

Walking for Mr Ivan Smith wasn't the problem. The problem was working as his secretary.

Well, the discussion with Mrs Tatiana was difficult but not as difficult as Myra had thought. First time, first thing, she was going to be in her new suit as Smith Enterprise CO. secretary...

〰️ THAT MONDAY 〰️

Fully ready for her work, she held the files on her chest. Lost at the beauty of the building, she didn't know when Tacy, her assistant tapped her by the shoulder.

"Miss Parker, I'm Tacy Grand, your assistant secretary. Would you mind if I escort you to your office? "

" Sure. " Giving out a soft smile.

Crazy me! She thought to herself as she felt that was the first thing to have done.

"Here is your new office, Miss Parker. If you want anything, you can give me a call or rather send me a text. " She said ushering her a smile.

" I will. Thanks though. "

" It's nothing. Just doing my job." She said before leaving.

Myra breathed...

Alicia, on the other side, has gone out of town. Walking as a staff in one of the company outside town.

It wasn't easy on her first day though but it still stood as the best.

"Welcome to the company, Miss Parker." Mr Smith welcomed her.

" It's really nice working here. At least much better than I thought."

Mr Ivan smirked. He was handsome whenever he does that, making him look younger than a twenty four year old man.

She returned the smile... "It's my pleasure to be your secretary. The files are almost ready. George has delivered the documents, it's almost processed. I hope, sir won't be angry I didn't have it done before now. "

Everything about her made him laugh. The way she talked, the way she acted, it made him happy and she doesn't know why.

Maybe, asking isn't the best option to do...

"It's okay. I'm not angry. What matters now is that you're doing well and I'm okay with that. " He smiled again...

Maybe this time, asking was the best thing to do...

"I'm sorry for asking but, sir, you've been smiling since I walked into your office. Do I have a problem? "

He decided not to laugh," No. You've got no problem. To be honest, I just love the way you address things. "

She shrugged...

He smiled again..." Once again, it's nice to have you into the company."

" Thanks, sir. "

That night, as she was off to bed. The weather was cool and calm just the way Myra Parker had wanted it.

She laid on her bed, shutting her eyes close when the soft voice echoed in her mind... A voice which seemed to have called from afar. Afar off from existence. A voice only her could hear.

"MYRA!!!"....
