More Than A Secretary

"Katrina, in my office right now".Katrina heard as soon as she answered the phone. " Okay sir" she replied dropping the office phone and picking up her notepad.  quickly checking to make sure her makeup is in place and her skirt in order. She walked to her boss office knocked on the door and entered "Sir, you called for me?" "Katrina how many times have I told you to call me by my name?  Especially when it's just the two of us Like we have been working together for almost seven years now." "Si... I mean Lucas it's just that it won't seem professional if I call you by your first name when you are my boss" and it will give me hope that the impossible might happen. Katrina added the last part in her head."Whatever you say, lady, I prefer it when people call me by my name especially people I am close with.We are not that close, Katrina said in her head."Anyway,  the reason I called for yo

"When do you plan on coming in for work Kat?"Lucas voiced out as soon as she picked the call, she knew she shouldn't have drunk last night, she checked the time and it was about five-thirty and she did a retake to make sure she heard him right, why would he expect her to be at work by five-thirty am?"Hello, sir it's five-thirty in the morning why will I be at work already?""I know the time, we had an agreement remember?""What agreement and why does it involve me coming to work early,""Can't, don't you remember?""Remember what?"Katrina asked, she was feeling so low, hangovers were the worst shits to deal with and hers was always extreme, this is why you shouldn't have drunk. She mentally scolded herself while trying hard to remember what she and Lucas had talked about but nothing was clicking."Did you have an anemia cuz I sent you a text last night to get here early today and told you that I will get the driver to come to pick you up bu

"What did you just say?"She asked in shock, she must have heard him wrongly, there is no way he just said what she heard."Kat, no need to raise your voice, hear me out first,""I am not raising my voice, I may have heard you wrongly that's why I am asking,""You heard what I said, I am asking you to be my girlfriend,"He said again, this time she was sure she heard him right, did he like her? Why will wanting her to be his girlfriend be a favor to ask, he could have just asked, she suspected there is more to this but it didn't stop her lovesick heart from doing a little, Nah scrap that, her heart did a major jump for joy but she felt she needed to hear everything he wanted to say first before all these dancing or jumping for joy."I don't understand, your girlfriend?""No need to look so disgusted or dismayed Kat, I am not in love with you or anything, I just need your help to...She couldn't hear the other part of what he was saying, her ea

Katrina woke up with a start, she had not slept well last night though she had gone to bed early, she had been toasting and turning in bed and had given up at a point and just ended up doing some work on her laptop which had not been easy cuz her mind kept going back to the event of the day and also the upcoming trip she was both excited and scared. She sluggishly got up from the bed and headed to the restroom, brushed her teeth, and washed her face before coming back into the room to put finishing touches to the stuff she had arranged the previous evening for her travel. Thankfully, she just had her period and it would be until early next month before it would come again but she still made sure to pack pads just in case. Not wanting to wake Jordan up, she tried to move her stuff to the living area as quietly as she could, the time was just past five am and she still had a lot of time since they usually use an eleven am flight every time they traveled, bookings for flight usua

"Wow, this is one thing I love about these trips, the food,"Katrina said, savoring the food, they were on the plane, she had waited three hours more before she could eat, it was already past eleven am, this was the longest she had stayed without food in a while and she didn't want to repeat the experience. "Sorry it took so long for you to eat, I know how hungry you were,""I can tell you that you don't know the half of it, but it's cool, and I am just gonna get used to you saying sorry and also being sweet to me,"She replied before stuffing her mouth with food, whoever prepared this food needs a pay raise because God damn it they were doing a superb job."Once again I should defend myself that I have always been a sweet and nice boss,"Lucas said and Katrina eyed him before stuffing her mouth with food again."What? I am saying the truth and you know that,"He defended. "I didn't say anything though,""Yeah, you didn't but your
