Once work was over, I grabbed my files and walk out of the office. All I need right now is a long shower and a good dinner. Speaking of dinner, I just recalled that my kitchen is a mess. Holy lord! I seriously have no choice but to get a maid. Believe me, if I say that, housekeepers aren’t trustworthy, I remember the last maid I had, that bitch is no worse than Maria, she literally stole almost all my pieces of jewelry and not only that, she tried to get herself on my boyfriend, she literally took her clothes off for him to check her out and when he didn’t, she tried to force herself on him. She’s a bitch. I made sure she got fired and to date, she hasn’t gotten a job yet, her CV is still with me, and I won’t let it go till after the year ends. This is what she gets for acting like a bitch.

Once I arrived at the apartment, my ear got encircled by police sirens. What the hell is going on? I got down from the car and the first thing I saw was the police cars parked by the side, usually, it’s always five police cars parked but today there were over ten cars there. Did someone die or what? Well, if that someone is Maria then I don’t think there is a need for any investigation. May her soul not Rest In Peace because she never gave me peace.

As I entered the building, I saw the police chief being interviewed by some reporters. Am I the only one that thinks reporters are jobless, like seriously who has time to even watch some bullshit news talk less of writing about it?

As I entered the elevator, in a minute or less, it reached my house floor. Stepping out of the elevator, I came across Maria. I really wished she was the one the police are investigating of.

"Well, well, well, if it isn’t Tara James Philip, the chief executive manager of the number one global company in town." She said

Here we go again, this bitch doesn’t get tired of taunting me.

She hasn’t said anything yet, just walk pass her Tara. Let me be.

As I took a step forward, she walked up to me.

"Come on Tara, spill it out" She said

"Spill what out?" I asked

"Spill it out. You forgot the file, didn’t you?"

"None of your business, stay in your lane and I will stay in mine."

"Who talked about lane Tara, I was just asking you a simple question. Did you or did you not forget the file?" She questioned

"As I said, non of your business." I pushed her aside

"It’s okay you can tell me, I already know that you aren’t good enough for that position."

Holy lord! Get her away from me.

"You think so, wait a minute." I paused as I sniffed the atmosphere "Do you smell that, oh wait it’s just the disgusting smell of jealousy."

"You bitch!" She barked

"Call me bitch or not, I’m still your boss." I blow a kiss at her and then opened the door "Before I forgot Maria." I turned around and looked at her "Don’t be late tomorrow if you do, I will have no choice but to cut your salary." I winked. She was about to come toward me when I quickly slammed the door shut.

I rested my back on the door "What a bitch!" I whiffed as I threw my bag on the couch.

I was about to walk into my room when I sensed a change in the living room. I studied the living room, the books were arranged on the shelves, the remote batteries aren’t on the floor, there isn’t a snack wrap on the floor and most importantly the couch looks vacuumed. Am I in my apartment or not? The last time this place looked neat was when Jeff visited and I made sure he cleaned the entire damn house.

What the fuck happened here? Why does my house look like it was just attacked by a bunch of cleaners and purifiers?

"Holy shit-hole!" I muttered

Did that guy clean up my house or should I still be thinking I’m in a dream? No, no, I’m not dreaming he fucking did it.

I took off my heel and walked into the kitchen, I hear corona beer calling my name.

"Come to mama," I mumbled as I opened the fridge. He took two bottles out of it, I don’t blame him, corona beer is irresistible. I grabbed a bottle and opened it, gulped half of the glass before I kept it on the counter. I skimmed the surface, soft and clean. Hearts off to him, he really nailed it.

I let out a yawn and walked into my room. Just as I said, a long bubble shower and then good food.

I entered the room and threw my jacket on the bed and then entered the bathroom, I turned on the tap and felt the water, exactly how I want it. Walking out of the bathroom I took off my clothes and wrapped a towel around my chest, I can’t lie but I have a very good body figure. With this kind of body, I think I should be a bikini model.

"Warm bubble bath here I come," I muttered as I walked towards the bathroom.

Holy shit! I almost forgot, I instantly turned on my music box, and I increased the volume to medium, just like I want it.

"Shout it out! Shout it out! Live it up, we are gonna take it to the way…. Shout it out! Oooo." I sang along.

I just love it when I have a warm bubble bath with just me and my music.

Once I entered the bathroom, I took off my towel and then collided my body in the warm water. I put some shampoo on my hair and scrubbed it for a while, once I was done, I rinsed my hand and then grabbed my phone which I kept on the side of the jacuzzi. I have this game that always calms me down when I get moody or upset. It’s called 'get your special day started' I know it’s a long name for a game but who cares as far as it’s a great game, I’m okay with it.

I played the game for a while and then kept the phone aside. I really miss Kyle right now, I remember how we always showered together, Kyle and his amazing romantic shower techniques. Oh lord I think I should stop thinking of him, he doesn’t even care about me, I’m sure right now he is kissing the fuck out of Maria or something like that.

Once I was done taking a shower, I wrapped the towel arranged my chest, and then grabbed my phone, it was time to do what was next, get something to eat. I dialed a restaurant number and they picked up on the second ring.

"Good evening ma’am, this is Amee's diner how may I help you?" A man said almost immediately as he answered the call

"Tara Philip speaking, I will like to have my usual."

"Sorry ma’am but I’m new here, can you just tell me exactly what you want?"

Holy shit! Everyone in that damn restaurant knows me, why can’t he just ask or something like that.

"Is Scott around?" I asked

"Yes, ma’am he is." He responded

"Tell him that Tara Philip called, he will know what to do and yes, I want my order to be delivered soon, five minutes from now."

"Okay, ma’am." With that, I ended the call.

Amee's diner is the restaurant where I’ve been ordering my dinner and lunch since I moved here, all employees know me and when I say all know me I’m including the janitor as well. I usually invest cash in them.

I was applying my body cream when I heard a knock on the door.

"Finally." I sighed.

I adjusted my towel before I opened the door, I leaned my hand on the side of the door.

"Delivery for miss…Uhm…Mrs…Uhm...Miss…Mrs…" He paused seductively staring at me

"Just hand me over the food, I’m starving," I said grabbing the bags from his hand.

He was still staring at me, without blinking his eyes. I gave him a long look, he’s pretty weird but I got no choice.

"Do you wanna come in?" I asked

"Uhm...I should be going but" He looked around "Okay." He hurriedly answered.

"Well then come in." I lead the way. As he entered the house I closed the door. I turned on slow music and walked toward him.

"Do you wanna_"

"Yes I do" He cut me off

"Okay. I will be right back, I just need to get ready."

"Okay, but be quick."

"Yeah I know, I’m also starving."

As I entered my room, I wore black pajamas and a baggy shirt. I love baggy shirts it’s very comfortable.

"Okay, I’m ready," I said walking out of the room. "Where are you?" I asked

"I’m over here." He responded

My eyes went wide as I saw him, he was completely naked, and his dick was clearly the main focus right here, like seriously when last did he shave. "Holy shit! What the dick-hole are you doing?" I screeched turning around, I closed my face with my hand.

"Relax, I know I haven’t shaved for a while but trust me when I say that my little man over here is great."

"Get the fuck out of my house!" I demanded

"What! Is this some kind of sex method of yours?" He smirked

"Get out now!" I pointed at the door

"Okay, I get it. I know what you want. You ladies have these weird sex entertainment methods I just don’t." He stood up and walked toward the door

"Wait, wait, wait, before you go, put on your clothes first."

"Okay, I understand that you don’t want to share this with everyone. You know, I like the way you think" He winked at me

"Never wink at me, never."

Once he put on his clothes, I gave him his phone and sent him outside the house.

"I will make the payment transfer."

"Wait what about the_"

I slammed the door shut. I have no time for his nonsense. He is fucking crazy, when I asked him to come in I didn’t mean it so we can have sex, I wanted him to come eat with me cause I hate having dinner alone.

"Son of a bitch." I muttered as I grabbed a plate and opened the delivery bag.

Andrew POV

Holy shit-hole, this day is a fucking nightmare that refuses to be over. I’m so sick of this day. I just hope Tara doesn’t find anything about me if not then I’m fucked up. She’s basically gonna tell them how I look and everything she knows, well she doesn’t know much but her describing my looks will burst my cover.

"Hey Andrew, get the beers," Luke said

"One second," I walked towards the fridge and opened it. Son of a bitch! There are no corona beers, okay now is a perfect time to say that I miss Tara’s house, I really do.

"We’re out of Corona!" I exclaimed

"Son of a bitch! You drank all the beers, didn’t you?" Jason approached me

"Yeah I did, fucker" I blurted

"You calling me, fucker?" He pointed at himself

"I’m guessing you need to screw that shit out of your ear cause you getting to the deaf zone."

"What you say about again?" He grabbed out

"Fuck off!" I brushed his shoulder as I walked past him.

I just don’t get why he’s all in my business. He’s always got something to say and he tries to make life difficult for me.

    I woke up to the ray of the sun streaming through the slats on my blinds, cascading over my naked chest. I stretched, my boobs lifting with my arms as I greeted the sun. I rolled out of bed and put on a shirt, my nipples prominently showing through the thin fabric. Last night was a heavy mess, call me crazy but I had to take off my shirt to have a good sleep, I kept turning round and round, sleeping alone is something I’m not comfortable with and last night was the night I found out that America also face power supply difficulties, that’s right, my power got cut in the middle of the night and the summer heat of New York City basically wanted to kill me. I had to make a couple of calls before those assholes brought the light back.As I got off from bed, I went directly to the kitchen, my day usually starts with coffee but I’m too lazy to make one so, I decided to go with corona beer. It’s very unhealthy to start your day with beer but at least it’s better than starting the day with wine

    Today is the day I actually feel like the chief executive manager of the company. Today’s date is a historical day for me. Date and time are both noted on my book of life, if someone tells me that I’m not capable of being the executive manager I will just kick his ass up. Today is the day I realize what the position of manager means. I would have agreed that I’m dreaming if it wasn’t for the fact that I continuously pinched myself to wake up but didn’t. I’m starting to feel like this day is a bloody nightmare that refuses to be over. After writing speeches and making notes on what the presentation is about, I attended five meetings in a roll without any break and not to mention that I presented almost all the projects, and yes you are right, as the manager, it’s one of my responsibility to make presentations, I’m not talking about some ordinary presentation, but I’m talking about a global presentation that has to do with ministries, diplomacy and bullshit like that. After everything,

    He walked towards me and dragged an empty chair, he moved the chair closer to the table and then took a sit. "You have nothing to worry about, we’re still together, in fact, we are doing great." He looked back at Maria "What?" She questioned "Sorry I was late, work was intense today." He said to me.I was still in shock, how the hell is he here? And why is he playing along, I didn’t even tell him to do that."It’s fine, but don’t be late next time." I played along Maria rolled her eyes, hissed, and then grabbed Kyle’s hand and walk away. This is fucking crazy, he just shut Maria up."I can explain." He looked at me"Explain what bro? You just shut that mother fucker up." Jeffery said "Yeah…Uhm I don’t know what to say, thank you for standing up for me." I awkwardly said "Wasn’t exactly a stand-up but you’re welcome" He responded "Wait a minute, you guys know each other?" Jeff asked "Yeah!" I responded "I will explain everything to you later." I enunciated"Okay but seriously,

    Letting someone stay with me without scrutinizing everything about the person is something I never do. Before Kyle started living with me, I had to find out everything about him, every single detail of him was important. Don’t ask me why because I have my reasons, as they say, every experience comes with a lesson. I have made countless impulsive decisions but I think offering my house to a total stranger is one of the worst, but how bad can it be?I woke up to the most irritating sound ever, my alarm. It started going on and off blabbing the most irritating sound ever, I still wonder why I haven’t changed my alarm ring. It basically ripping my ears off, without opening my eyes I reached for the alarm clock and tried to turn it off but that bitchy clock refuses to stop, I groaned, grabbed the alarm clock, and threw it to the door making a loud noise which instantly flinched me up from bed. I used to back of my hand to rub my eyes, turning around and looking at the alarm clock, it was s

I don’t know if it’s just me or does Maria waits for my arrival outside her door, and damn it! How did she even arrive before me? And worse of it is that, did they have to do that in public, what’s the use of them leaving together if they can’t fuck themselves inside the apartment. I’m pretty sure that bitch just wants

    When my cell phone vibrate on the side, I was laying on my bed with my arm covering my eyes, trying to block out the mid-morning sun that was streaming through the window. I groaned and rolled to the side, stretching my arm out to reach for it. Every single one of my muscles protested at the slight movement. My whole body hurts from the massive work I’ve been doing. I think I will spend my day at the spa today, massage is what I need right now. Finally catching my phone with my fingertips, I pressed it to my ear and stared up at the ceiling. "Yeah what?" I barked into the phone, already annoyed by the person calling. The only number I set a different ringtone, is the person calling me; he barely calls I wonder what he wants. "Dani!" He excitedly said I rolled my eyes at the name he called "It’s Tara." I groaned "Ohh come on, you don’t have to be mad, it’s a new day, where is the excitement.""The excitement vanished the moment you called my damn phone," I growled not wanting to hea

Yesterday after we left the grocery store, I went to the spa as planned and Andrew said he was going to meet an old friend, it was about some job stuff he didn’t want to talk about much, so I decided to let him use my car. Flipping through the photos, tears began forming in my eyes, I closed my eyes and let out a breath. Today is supposed to be a good day for me, I don’t know if I should be celebrating or moaning, either ways, I enjoy spending the day staring at my old pictures and writing letters. I softly chuckled at my baby picture, I was very cute when I was a baby, and my mom says I had the cutest buttocks. My cheeks always get red when she says that, it was very embarrassing when she said that in public. As I flipped onto the next page, my alarm rang signaling me it was time. I took the photo album off my lap and placed it on the sofa. Walking towards my phone I turned off the alarm and stomped out of the room. Stepping int

    "Everything needs to be at my desk by the evening," I demanded to Paul who is junior to me. He’s more like a secretary."Miss Tara, I don’t think I can get everything before the evening.""Oh please Paul, we don’t have much time" I snapped tugging a strand of hair behind my ear. "I know, I know but I can’t make it to the evening, just give me a day and everything will be set." He says placing the file on the table."Come on Paul" I snorted "Jeff. He can help you right? You guys can work together." I suggest signing the papers. I have signed multiple files this morning, I don’t have time to read them through so I just sign on them by just reading the head title."Jeff as in Jeffery?" He raised an eyebrow. Is there someone else named Jeff in the organization? "Yes, Jeffery," I responded "Yeah that can’t happen, I can’t work with Jeffery.""Why not?" I asked aware of why he said that."Anyone but Jeff, I can’t handle that man, he’s unbearable." He dramatically broadened his eyes and t

    "Yeah seriously Jeff, that was really funny," I said through the phone.I have been on a call with Jeff for almost one minute, we’ve been talking about the dumbest thing; a car truck driver that was flirting with a waitress. I know it’s dumb, and why would anyone waste their time talking about that? But excuse us for being so weird, Jeff and I were basically bored at that moment and the waitress and driver were a source of entertainment."Yeah okay, I will talk to you later," I said "Remember, we have work tomorrow." "Ugh! I remember." I said climbing out of the cab, I paid the driver and then walked toward the entrance door."I’m the chief executive manager, I need at least one week's vacation every month.""Oh, Tara are you the chief executive manager 'cause you haven’t blabbed it a billion times." He sarcastically said I rolled my eyes, adjusting the level of my bag "Sarcasm is that what we’re doing now?""Oh please, Tara. I wasn’t being sarcastic" "Really why don’t you tell m

    I should be mad at Andrew for breaking my car window screen in pieces but don’t know why, I just don’t feel like getting upset. I ordered a cab online and he’s on his way to pick me up. I still can’t believe I’m letting this slide and worse is that he didn’t even apologize and I’m acting all cool about it, if it was someone else I would have to spank him bout and make him pay for it. I let out a breath as the sun kissed my skin. I stood in the driveway waiting for the cab driver to arrive, my handbag hanging on my hand and my sunglasses shading my eyes. I have already called the mechanic and he is on his way to fix whatever damage Andrew caused to the car, he says he has to take the car to his garage for proper repairs. Once I saw a cab pulling closer to the sidewalk, I sighed "Finally, it’s about time." I walked to the side of the cab, I pulled the door open before smoothly stepping inside. Getting comfortable I sledded on my seatbelt, took off my sunglasses, and then slipped them i

    As the cab drove me off, I paid a couple of bucks and then hopped out of the car. Walking into the building, I rolled my eyes as a silent growl escape my mouth when I saw Kyle and Maria. I know I said I’m over Kyle but I just don’t know why I get mad when I see him with Maria. I slightly blocked them with my hand, making it look like I was trying to hide my face although that is exactly what I was doing, I don’t want Maria to notice my presence if she does she will start acting like the bitch she is.As I walked toward the elevator, I constantly tapped the button, praying for it to open before Maria comes any closer to me. Tapping the button one more time, I heard footsteps coming my way. Here comes the bitch."Hey, Tara." I heard Kyle say.I slowly turned around and face him, looking beside I noticed Maria’s absence. Didn’t I just see her with him, or was I hallucinating?"Hey," I responded; my voice sounded low and calm. I turned back to the elevator and pressed the button again. I’
