Chapter 2

Me thinking that honestly, so far, being unable to leave my job, because even though I'm being harassed, it pays well and I can't quit, because I'm going to college, in addition to salary bonuses, in which then, in addition to loans and the fact that my dad is in a coma, my parents hospitalized, needing treatment because of a drunk driver accident...

So, I'm being the only person being an only child who could afford medical expenses, coming from a humble background.

Honestly, at the end of the day I'm going to have to think like half the company: that she and Nathaniel, my colleague who thinks he's great, are having an affair, but no, I don't want to.

I don't want to be malicious and get into everyone's bandwagon, which according to rumors, in which each of them said about the type of girls that the two of them had interests, listening to the rest of the collaborators and employees about the type of interest, in which each of them said, in which someone told me of the gossip that was circulating around the company.

Since January I've been flirted with by my two bosses, in which I work in a multinational company with several segments such as German laboratories, called Wagner Weber.

I am the assistant and current interest of my two bosses and partners, in which they came with the numerous issues of the branches and, although I enjoy my job, I often feel exploited, sometimes it forces me to work later, between flirts, to the point of almost asking...

So, seriously... all that's missing is my boss tying me to a chair and shoving a piece of bread in my mouth instead of letting me have lunch or forcing me to have her biggest wants and needs, to the point of going to hell. fact.

The girl received kisses, touches, looks, just over two weeks ago gifts came, and ale was always presented as a gift.

When at last I finished the pile of work, with a necklace she'd demanded I wear.

So, this one who was called my darling, when her boss tasked me with completing it until the next day, he presented me with a bonus, a salary increases, in addition to a bracelet.

The one I couldn't refuse, the one where I leave the reports on her desk and go back to mine.

Then, I grab my bag, leaving there, before seeing any of them, so, I leave without looking back, I urgently need to leave the office to live the world of mortals away from insistent flirting, so, or I will end up in all over the papers as a serial killer of bosses who think they're the center of the world or the new girl who's going to end up on the lap and stuffing a sandwich, according to company rumours.

I need to visit my parents later, I need to keep the hospital payments up to date, so I don't know what I will do if they don't accept the loans I took, unless I accept the proposal from my two bosses.

I almost asked them for a loan, or a salary advance so I can pay my medical bills.

- Friends with benefits... - Her boss approached her a few hours ago.

- Stay a little longer so we can talk. – Nathaniel proposed.

- I'll think later. – I ran away like the devil flees from the cross.

Now, it's ..., 11:20 pm... It's too late, work would have to wait tomorrow, more than I needed to be late, but I can't just ask for a day off.

In the street there is a deluge outside, the rain was heavy.

God... this is perfect!

It was a great summer storm, so when I get close to the portal, where I only after taking courage, I run to the parking lot, where I skid, almost fall, where my beloved León awaits me.

So, I walk soaking wet into the garage, and after pushing the command button, my Porsche car flashes its lights in welcome. It is so cute...!

I started getting gifts, I tried to refuse, I tried to be elusive, think of someone who is stubborn and demanding and doesn't take no for an answer, those are them, so I soon think of running away, without courage, but I give in.

So now I get in the car, I'm not scared, but I don't like parking lots, and even less so when they're so deserted at a time like this that I automatically start to remember horror movies where a woman walks through one of these parking lots and a heartless man dressed in black appears and stabs her to death.

Ah, my god, what a situation, my life is surrounded, it doesn't seem to work out, there's something about her that was impossible to remove, she never paid attention to a person, a boyfriend, living most of her youth between school and housework. ..., they take their toll.

I get in the car, set the locks, open my purse, take out a Kleenex and wipe my face.

Now, I'm soaking wet, but I try to find my keys, I want the world to be just as I go to shove the keys in the ignition, I fumble, I have the shivering and the sounds of thunder, between the rains falling overhead. me, I can't put the keys inside the lock...

Damn, then, they slip, fall, simply, everything seems lost, she almost despairs, when the girl goes looking for her, the keys almost fall into a utility access hole, the rain falling on her, leaving her completely wet.

So, I swear in the dark there's a power outage, one more swears.

Now, I'm practically a fish, when I reach down to look for them, they were there, almost catching them, but they move farther away.

I run my hand along the floor, follow to the right they are not there, then neither is the left.

So, I despair, the rain begins to thicken, what... I find the gum I've been looking for days in my bag.

Excellent! I keep groping the floor of the car in the midst of this, I hear sounds, I can't find my keys, I can't find them when I take out my mobile phone, shining the flashlight on them, I find them, almost in the grate of the utility access hole, when I hear someone calling.

Coming towards me, I turn around in time to see their bosses, some people coming running between figures with their headlights high flashing out of the parking lot, not caring who was looking for the keys.

- What happened kitten...? - It was Nathaniel, next to him, hugging each other, then almost catching himself in the dark, I have to use the light of the headlights, I crouch and when I go to see, my bosses try to run in the middle of the rain, to crouch beside me, but it's late...

It was then that I hear some laughter nearby and I look around carefully so that they don't see me.

Oh my God!

The keys fall between the bars towards the utility access hole in the middle of the rain.

Between laughs and caresses I see my boss and Nathaniel approaching.

Now, they are ignoring my pity, they look amused. It annoys me now, me working my ass off until eleven-something and them partying.

Oh, what an injustice! Soon my bosses, Feuer and Nathaniel lean against the side column and kiss, pushing towards the locked door with me wishing the worst possible.

Look at this...! I don't believe!

A thousand misfortunes, I really, abhor, I swore...

- There goes a key. Nathaniel said, turning around.

- Honey, I'll give you a ride, then I'll call the locksmith. Nathaniel said.

Me now, without action, I push myself to my feet, almost bent over fatally.

Even though I'm half crouched down, where he takes me to the inside of his car, so they don't see me, I hold my breath. Please!

Now taking all the attention of their bodies wet under their suits, their presence, with me here, I will die of shame, even seeing that there is no solution, with the two not caring about the fact that their huge, big car and red I am with me between them in front.

No, that can't happen, so suddenly my boss drops her purse and unceremoniously touches Nathaniel's crotch where they pull me.

- Now you don't escape, we'll show you what you've been missing.

Then they both pull me in, kiss me then let go, between them, Feuer is touching him, they seem not to mind my presence.
