Unconditional!

3. First Encounter

I groan as I bang my head against my desk at my ability to be so understanding. And at the same time, I hear a knock on my door. I internally suppress a grunt before replying, "Come in."

The door opens to reveal Xander entering my office with a nervous look on his face. Poor guy. I think, feeling guilty for snapping at him a few times this week.

"Mam, I wanted to tell you that you have an appointment at 5 tomorrow." I frowned as I quickly remembered my calendar.

"No, I don't. And you know Xander I told you to keep the 4 to 6 pm slot free for important clients only. Tell the person, I can have a meeting around 9 or 10." I instruct.

"I should have mentioned this earlier, the meeting is with none other than Miss Sayeed." He says before rushing out of the office as if his ass is on fire.

Huh! Finally!

I swear to god if he looks at me with that condescending look again, I might just rip his eyes out and feed them to him!

"Do you understand? Or should I explain it to you again?" Seth, the bioengineer said as he looked at me with an exasperated expression on his face. As if I was a kid who couldn't understand photosynthesis.

I am not a kid. But I am also a person whose interest in biology started and ended with sexual reproduction chapters. That's it!

What the hell are; the somatic neural system, autonomic neural system, Schwann cells, nods of Ranvier, and corpora quadrigemina anyway!??

I am pretty sure he is just making up words at this point!

He just keeps saying these complicated words and not telling me what they mean which ends up making the words go over my head!

Because of him, I have had to reserve a couple of hours of my day to read biology books or listen to lectures! It's so freaking frustrating! I am at my breaking point, if doesn't start making sense soon I am firing him! I don't care if he is the best bioengineer in the world! He doesn't have a single teaching bone in his body!

My team and can handle the coding, I just want a person who can make us understand the biology involved! That's all!

"Seth, I have already told you three times that when you use a biological term explain its meaning. Neither my team nor I can understand you otherwise." I say calmly but he can read my body language then he should know I am anything but calm. I. Am. Done.

"Miss. Williams just because you don't understand-'

I cut him off before he could say another word. "I can assure you my team didn't understand a single word either," I say as I turn my right, facing my team holding freaking notepads as if we are back in college as they shake their heads.

"Miss. Williams-'

"Seth Manning. You are fired and I would very much appreciate a quiet exit." I with a warm smile and fuming eyes making him huff like a toddler before he leaves the room with his stuff.

I sigh as I rub my head and turn to look toward Martha. "The resume you gave me, Josh was it? Your cousin? Tell him if he is still interested he has an interview tomorrow at 6. Dismissed." She gives me a soft smile and nods before she and everyone else file out of the room.

I bend down as I rest my elbows on the counter, burying my face in my hands as I groan. "Miss. Sayeed is going to have the time of life taunting and insulting me when she gets the news of this latest development..."

"I am sure, I will." My body jerks to my right when I hear the calm coated annoyed voice as I take in the woman before me.

Kamilah freaking Sayeed! I am fucked!
