The receptionist was about my age except maybe a bit older. I approached her decks grinning from ear to ear.
"Um.. hi my name is Iris and I have an appointment with Mr Kendrick Johnson",I was so nervous.
She smiled at me. "He told me that he was expecting a young lady to appear here about your height. Please, go to the elevator and press on the 10th floor,the last floor,that is where you meet him. His office at the far end corner", she told me.
She was such a beautiful woman and she was calm and collected as well I like her already.
I walked towards the elevator excitement building in me every step I took. I opened the elevator and pressed on the 10th floor. Since no one was in the elevator with me ,I was humming one of my favorite songs,Ocean eyes by Billie Eilish.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not singing about him.
The elevator dinged and the door opened .I stepped out cautiously and looked ahead it was a long corridor and the far end and was an office door.
No one was at this corridor. But there were multiple offices by the side of where I was directed to.
I saw Kendrick sitting on an office chair, since the whole building was made of glass. I knocked on the door but there was no response. I tried waving my hand to gain his attention but he was so busy.
Okay, so the glass is soundproof so maybe there might be a button somewhere that if you press it it'll make a noise in his room ,yeah probably. That must be it. And true to my guess I found a button, I quickly pressed on it. And his eyes shot up to mine and immediately our gaze locked.
He motioned for me to open the door.
I pushed open the door careful to not remove the handle from its hinges. I mean I was clumsy ,very clumsy at that matter.
"Hey", I stood there awkwardly and waited for him to tell me what to do.
"Come on, sit down", he commanded. He placed a contract in front of me.
I took my seat and stared at the paper on his desk.
"So, this is a contract and you are to work for me for 6 months to repay your debt. You will have to come live with me you'll be fed, housed everything you need. You are to work for me as a secretary both in my house and in this workplace", he pushed the paper towards me and edged with to read.
The contract stated that I was to live in his house work for him. the work includes cleaning the house cooking and other house chores.
I was supposed to wake up early and go to work to avoid any suspicion so that we won't be seen together. easy because I plan on avoiding him at work.
Also I will be paid $1,000 at the end of every month. seriously a thousand?!
And there was it I was to be fed housed and to the period is over. there will be no form of intimacy between us. I mean I wont even try getting involved with him even if he were the last person on Earth.
"Well I agree to your contract and that $1,000 is Not enough."
"You are here to repay a debt and I'll be giving you a thousand dollars and what are you saying?"
I groaned inwardly and sighed ,"okay I agree"
"Good, you had to agree . If you could have refused I will just dial 911 on my phone", He smirked at me, took the pen and signed his part of the contract. I also took the pen signed.
"When do I move into your house?", I asked rowing my eyes at his teasing face.
"Tonight, you have to start your job as soon as possible "
