All Chapters of Uncanny Affair With My Boss: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

GISELLEI let his words sink into my head for the next five minutes. I feel pale and I slowly go to sit on the edge of the bed. It's devastating news and I wasn't given a heads-up. I wasn't prepared for it, guess that's why it hit me hard.Tears brew in my eyes but I blink them back. I shouldn't be crying. It'll only make him feel worse. I have to try hard to keep my emotions in check. No matter what, I got to try for him."Why?" I finally ask, getting a hold of my tears. "What happened?""It just did. One minute, I'm at my desk and the next minute, I'm asked to leave. Just like that." He's looking out the window. His shoulders are slumped and that's enough indication that he's hurting."I don't understand…" Who gets fired out of the blue? And it's not just that. Theo is the best accountant in the company. He's been with them for five years now. Why would they just fire him without so much as an explanation? It doesn't add up."Me neither." There's a wet crack in his voice. "It feels

GISELLE"Whoo-hoo!!" I let out another wild squeal, taking a chug from my glass of whiskey. The D.J. just switched to a badass beat, and I feel my insides light up. I slam the glass on the counter, laughing heartily as I pour myself another drink. I don't know why I'm laughing so hard. It has to be the booze. I've never laughed this hard. Not even when Theo says his sick jokes.I feel a deathly burn at Theo's memories and I take another chug of whiskey, to flush down the memories. I don't wanna remember him. I wanna forget. I fucking want to forget!!Another wild squeal leaves me as the D.J. changes to a rock beat. I get down from the stool, teasing my body to the beat.It's my first time alone in a nightclub. I've always been too reserved and shy to come alone. Theo and Tasha are my compulsory companions. But today, I'm alone.Today, I'm doing everything wrong. I'm drinking myself into a stupor. I'm dancing erotically to beats, and not giving a fuck who's watching or not. Tonight, I

GISELLE I quit my five jobs and began searching for one, comfortable job. Something that won't keep me out all day so I can still have time for my son. I'll forget about my unfortunate one-night stand and focus on restarting my life. This time around; for the better.As I scroll through my cellphone, I see an ad from the Hunt Cooperation which says they're in search of a secretary. I apply without wasting time and head over to the company on the day of the interview.Having made sure to be well dressed, I sure conclude I have no problem even as I step into the elevator. As it dings, I step right out of it and let my eyes scrutinize my surrounding. A gasp escapes my lips at the glamorous sight. The sparkling tiled flooring can be seen as it glisters right down my feet. Different colognes swims through the air as passerbys makes their way both in and out. Looking around and not knowing exactly where to head to, I'm sure anyone can get lost in here if he or she does not trend with caut

GISELLE I didn't expect Ethan will want to see me again. Until I received a certain letter informing me of a sudden meeting with him. I didn't want to leave the comfort of my apartment after yesterday's embarrassment but then I'll almost go nut if I don't hear him out. As I board a cab, I wonder throughout the ride why he's calling me over to a restaurant. He wants to apologize? It must be that cause he obviously won't want to discuss about work in a restaurant. Well, who knows what he may be up to. I'm still thinking of whether or not to take up Griffin's offer though. I don't want to keep wandering about the whole of NY. After all, I'm sure I won't face rejection with him. Ethan had thrown me out of his company because of that night stand with him. He didn't tell me that himself but am not dumb- I do know."We are there, Ms." I hear the driver say and I snap out of my head. Opening the car's door, I step out before handing him his pay and turning around towards the restaurant. It

GISELLE Perhaps we were both just addicted to occasional s"x with each other. I never saw it coming. Back then, I mistook his lust for love and yeah, see where it lands me.Things looks really glamorous back them with him so it wasn't my fault for not seeing how faulty we were. Now that he's gone, his memories are still intact and that's exactly why I despise him the more. He was never really there. Being blind to see him for whom he truly is, he must have find fooling me pretty much ecstatic.All out of the blue, he's out of our life. No doubt, he could have been formulating this all the while. He must have stayed for that long simply because of our addiction- at pleasuring each other.~~~When I look around, I notice Theo sleeping comfortably as a powerful beam of the sun king hit my eye. I blink three times to remind myself that I was going delude again, that I was not lying next to him. I smack myself because it might have been another of my fantasies about him. Even with my fou
