The tension in the air between me and Mr Romano was unbearable . His stares across boardroom tables , his smirks ,his stature when he would lean against his office door and look at Ms before a he left for the evening

Even the light touch of our fingers when I passes him a pen would make me clench . I was too on edge . But I had to control myself

1. He was my boss
2. I had a daughter to think of
3. He was still out there

So I tried to avoid him . Be professional around him. Pay no mind to his flirting even though it was sending my heart to beat 100 miles per hour .

It was 12 :30 pm and I was on my lunch break sitting at my desk eating some pasta I made yesterday. I spun my chair side to side as I ate . I had no friends here and to be honest I didn't want any .

As I was taking the last bite of my food , the elevator dinged . Leaning over the side of my desk I saw a woman step out in six inch red stiletto boots , a black trench coat and white scarf. Red lipstick covered her lips and her brown hair sat in waves .

Blue eyes zeroed in on me

"Hi how can I help you ? " I said with a smile

She looked up and down at my outfit which I'm sure is stunning but she looked at me in disgust


" I'd like to see Mr Romano " she said looking away from me as if my mere sight burned her

" let me check if he's available " I answered with fake politeness

Picking up the phone on my desk and called Mr Romano.

" yes bambina" his deep voice reaching into deep crevices of my body as he answered

Fighting down the heat from my cheeks I cleared my throat

" there's a women who would like to see you "

" whats her name ?"

I turned to the women to ask

" Juliana Pesci " she answered rolling her eyes .

" let her in " he replied and dropped the call . The women strut her stuff as she entered his office door flipping her hair back .

***

2 hours of torture ensued . Groaning and moaning came from Mr Romano's office filling up my ears . I tried to do my work but everytime I typed a squealing pig like sound came from the women who has entered the room .
