C2 She got a tattoo?

KATHERINE

After glancing through my work, and making sure that there was no mistakes with the document, I quickly printed it out before hurrying to send it to my boss before he comes out once again and start shouting at me. The one that I have endured today was enough and I don't want more of his flaming rage to rain me.

I got to the door of his office and breathed in and out before knocking on the door. I was giggling in anticipation as I waited to hear his deep voice. I was excited to see him, even for a second. A glimpse of him was enough. However, my plan was shattered when Alex, my boss's assistant suddenly opened the door and collected the file from me, before slamming the door shut.

Asshole, I cursed inside my head. I don't even know between him and Mr. Rock who is colder. But I will surely give it to Mr. Rock. That man can be as scary as hell. But I love him!

I giggled to myself like a fool as I made my way back to my desk. I don't know why but the thought of my Boss gives me goosebumps, it makes butterflies to explode in my stomach every time my mind flickers to him. The excitement that boils within me is beyond words and I don't know how to control it. I don't mind being screamed at, shouted at as far as it's him.

Oh God! That man will be the death of me. A gasp escaped my mouth when I felt my core getting wet. I quickly slammed my legs together as I sat on my chair, adjusted my glasses, and focused back on my work. Now, is not the time to think about nonsense. I know I'm a horny secretary that don't mind getting slammed against the wall, my hands pinned tightly and ass in the air while I gets devoured by my sexy and hot boss!

However, I have responsibilities and I better get to work and control my messed up libido.

And it worked. Immersing myself into work helped me to forget him and before I could know it, it was already time for lunch.

I love eating so much, even as I'm this very skinny. I love food so much and my mom loves it when I pounce on her food like a hungry cat.

I slowly got up from my desk, stretched myself a little while yawning. After adjusting myself, I headed towards the company's canteen on the fifth floor.

Although I like food, but I have to endure the horrible dishes that they are preparing in this company. I don't have money to start spending anyhow. I have to save every penny since my Mom depends on drugs to survive each day. They are very expensive too. And my half brother is still in high school. They are my happiness now seriously, because I have got no one else except them.

I don't have any lover and neither am I expecting to have one soon. Who would want to have such a bland and not so beautiful girl like me as a girlfriend?

I wore glasses every day, my hair is just blonde, my face is so average and to top it all, I'm as skinny as a bone.

Getting into the elevator, I pressed the button to fifth floor. My boss's office is located on the thirtieth floor which is also where I work. My desk is just some meters away from the door to his office. I don't always go to his office, unless his assistant is out doing some errands for him.

Most of the times, I don't see my boss unless he is going out for meetings or otherwise. The special cases are like today, when his assistant is not around and he is angry with me for delaying. Hmmm... such a poker face that he is, as if the whole world is owing him.

I got to the canteen and ordered for my food. Just some rice, with veggies and chicken. My Mom advised me to be eating the veggies and chicken very well so I can gain more weight. I'm just obeying her, but I honestly think that it might not work in my case. I have a lot of things going on in my head and I don't think this can solve my problem.

After my food was handed to me, I slowly scanned around the huge room for an empty space and when I found one, I simply walked over and sat down. And just as I was about to put something into my mouth, Hannah, my talkative of a friend decided to interrupt me.

"Don't even dare, Katherine" She pouted and I had no option but to stop. I know what she wants so I waited patiently for her to order her food so we can eat together.

We graduated from the same university and have been friends since high school. She is really a good friend and one someone can rely on. She knows about my crush for my boss and always teases me about it. I also know that she is in love with her boss too, the marketing director. I always tease her about it too, but within me, I know she has more chance to be with her boss because, Mr. Jason, her boss is very much single.

"Bad friend, why didn't you wait for me?" She asked as she sat opposite me.

"Sorry, I was so famished that's all" I quickly replied innocently.

But as always, I know she would tease me. She smirks at me. "Hungry for food or hungry for something else while you use food as an excuse?"

"Hungry for both" I shrugged my shoulders shamelessly, but my cheeks gave my coolness away as they instantly turned red.

"Someone is trying to play cool here" She teases me even more and I had no option but to scoop a spoon of rice into my mouth. While she laughed harder attracting the burning gazes from our colleagues.

"Bring it down, Hannah" I cautioned her as I looked around and returned those looks with an awkward smile before focusing back on her.

"Who cares, Kat? This is a canteen and not a library" She rolls her eyes as she continued to eat her food like nothing happened.

I just shook my head and continued to eat my mine as well.

"Follow me to the rest room, Kat. I want to show you something" Hannah suddenly said, piquing my curiosity immediately.

"What is that?" I asked, feeling impatient.

You will see it when we get there" She smiled smugly at me, but refused to talk. She always likes to make me wait anytime she has something to show me. I hope it's something important and not one of those her unbelievable and absurd surprises and pranks. There were several cases whereby I had accepted her invitation to see whatever she wanted to show me and it only turned out that she just wanted me to accompany her to the restroom. It was always disappointing, and what pains me the most was that I had always fell into her trap. She was always sounding too convincing.

Talking about prank!

"Hope you're not pranking me today again? Just let me know so I will just go back to my desk and back to work" I declared my disinterest in one of her playful jokes during working hours.

"No, Kat. I seriously want to show you something this time, trust me" She said with an assuring smile and I had no option but to agree. I couldn't say no to her innocent and compelling smile. She must have something to show me since we haven't seen each for days now, she had accompanied her boss on a business trip.

After we finished our food, the two of us headed towards the restroom. We walked down to the end of the canteen and turned to the hallway by the left and entered the women section of restroom.

"What do you want to show me?" I asked curiously the moment we walked into a cubicle, closing the door behind us.

"I heard that he likes tattoos in a woman's waist so I decided to get one" She said to me, while smiling excitedly.

I was taking aback as I heard this from Hannah. I just stared speechlessly at her overly excited face. It wasn’t until she leaned close and waved her hand at me that I finally realized myself.

"You did what?" I screamed loudly, causing her to quickly use her hand to cover my mouth.

"Bring your voice down, Kat" She grimaces before pouting.

"Sorry!" I whispered as I stared at her with guilt filled eyes. "What did you do?" I asked once again to be sure of what I heard.

She smiled at me and quickly raised her short royal blue dress up, and then turned her back on me.

I was amazed as I saw the tattoo of a flower at the back of her waist. It looked so beautiful on her tiny waist and any man that sees it will surely like it.

"Oh my! This is beautiful" I gasped as I slowly ran my hand on it.

"Thanks" She replied in a singsong voice as she turned around to face me, while grinning from ear to ear. I can really see that she was truly happy with the tattoo on her waist.

"I can't believe you did this for him"

"I will do anything for him"

“I wish I know what my own crush likes, I don't mind doing anything secretly for him too" I pouted in disappointment.

"Awww… don't feel sad. I will surely keep ears on the ground for you. And if I discover anything, I will tell you" She assured me. We don't always mention the names of our crush when we're in the company so we won't enter into trouble when someone overhears our conversation.

"Thanks, babe" I said to her.

After admiring the tattoo once again, she drops her dress down as we hurriedly left the restroom. And after saying our goodbyes, we headed towards our various departments.

I just hope that I would be able to pull my drifting self together and concentrate this time. I have to stop messing up before it's too late. I don't want to lose my job.

If only I could control my heart, how wonderful it would’ve been.
