“No, she could not. I don’t take my pie from anybody however Mazie woman,” Darryl says.

“Oh, please, you previous grump. She’s solely right here 4 nights every week. I serve you your pie each different evening simply tremendous.”

“Yeah, with a facet of angle,” he hisses.

“I’m not leaving. I’ll get your pie as quickly I make this name. Want me luck,” I say, unable to cover the smile on my face. I imply, would he name to inform me I didn’t get the job? That appears awfully courteous. I’m hoping they solely name to say that I bought it.

“I don’t consider in luck. In any other case, I wouldn’t have misplaced my candy Brenda, would I?” Darryl rambles from behind me as I hurry into the kitchen.

“I swear, Brenda’s not useless. She’s hiding from his grumpy ass,” Desiree whispers in my ear earlier than bursting out laughing.

I roll my eyes as a result of the 2 of them by no means cease bickering. I hurry to the again room and dial the quantity.

“Hey,” he says, his voice gruff and horny.

“Hello. That is Mazie McCarthy. Is that this Aidan?”

“Sure. Hey, Mazie. I used to be calling to let that we’d prefer to give you the job.”

“Actually? Oh my gosh. Sure. Sure, please. I’ll most undoubtedly be taking it.”

Actual easy, Mazie. Solution to present your desperation.

“That’s nice information. I do know Jack already went over the wage and the advantages with you, however do you’ve some other questions for me?”

“Nope. I simply want to present discover at each of my locations of employment. I do know I can begin immediately in the course of the day. Tomorrow even, if you’d like me to start out coaching. However I’ll nonetheless have a couple of shifts on the diner, so I gained’t have the ability to keep late the primary week on the nights I work at Gino’s.” My fingers are shaking and I’m struggling to maintain my composure. The wage that he supplied me is greater than double what I’m making now between the 2 jobs. And I’ll have the ability to get off of my mom’s advantages.

“That gained’t be an issue. For those who’d like to start out tomorrow, it will be fantastic. That might give Miranda time to coach you.”

“Okay. I’ll be there.” I want extra garments. I’ll need to put on the identical skirt and commerce out my blouses till the weekend. If I can seize a couple of issues to get me by the subsequent few weeks, then I’ll slowly add extra items to my wardrobe. Everybody has to start out someplace, proper?

“Sounds nice. I’ll get the whole lot to HR tomorrow, and we’ll have paperwork so that you can signal.” He pauses and I cease pacing as I anticipate what he’s going to say subsequent. “I need to just remember to know the way sorry I’m about that puddle. Somebody was honking behind me and I simply, I couldn’t take my eyes off you, er, um, I imply, I simply panicked. I hope you consider that I did drive again round and attempt to discover you.”

Effectively, not less than I do know he couldn’t look away both. It hadn’t been one-sided. And I don’t assume I’ve ever met a man that has gone to such lengths to apologize.

“Thanks for doing that and in your apology. It’s tremendous. It was simply dangerous timing.”

There’s extra which means behind the phrases I’m saying. As a result of it’s apparent we shared fairly a second. We’d each stared at each other earlier than the puddle, which introduced stated second to a screeching halt. However it doesn’t matter now. I’ll be working for Aidan.

So, we have been already doomed both manner.

I did by chance take observe that he wasn’t carrying a marriage ring. Nor do I feel Mya and Emma would go on and on about how wonderful their co-worker is that if he was a douchey man. However it doesn’t matter at this level. I’m working for the person, and I hope to like this job. Finish of story.

“Okay, nice,” he says. His voice actually is so horny over the cellphone. I nearly get distracted by it. “We are able to begin recent.”

“Completely.” If solely my exercise outfit might begin recent.

“All proper then. I’ll see you tomorrow morning, Mazie. Welcome to the crew.”

She’s been right here for one week, and it’s been the most effective week I’ve had at work in an extended fucking time. I need her to really feel comfy on the agency, significantly with me. We had a tough begin, however she was hotter on the cellphone than she’d been in particular person, and I’ve to hope that my apology bought by. She’s been friendlier as every day has handed, in order another gesture, I cease by Starbucks proper earlier than going into the workplace and choose up what I feel she’s been ingesting daily right here. I’m assured in a courtroom and I’m nearly as assured with distinguishing scents, which is usually a blessing and a curse. Particularly in New York Metropolis. It really works to my profit within the kitchen. Oh, let it work for me now…

I’m normally the primary to reach after Miranda, however I’ve been stunned that Mazie has been sitting subsequent to her earlier than I get right here daily this week. At present their consideration is on the pc display screen in entrance of Miranda.
