Chapter 39

She gets to her apartment and she gets in and sinks to the floor, Hailey couldn't believe this had just happened to her. Why did Charlize have to do that?

She climbed into her bed and switched off her phone, she wasn't in a mood to talk to anyone at all.

The next morning, she woke up and got ready for work, she stands in the front of the office and takes a deep breath and she walks in. She can hear people whispering under their breaths "I told you there was no way she got in on her own."

She shut them out and she goes to her work place. Clara and Maggie walk in and they sit across her, "So that's why you go to go on all those trips with the boss right?"

She doesn't say anything, and she just ignores them. She checks the time and sees its lunch time. She gets up and walks outside.

She sits by the park bench and eats her food. After lunch she got back to that dreaded place and when she got into her workplace it was thrashed and on one of her files it was written "Bosses Whore, Slut, Prostitute."

Tears threaten to form but she sucks them in. She takes a deep breath and carries on with her work.

She keeps on seeing people coming in and calling her all kinds of names. She checks her phone and she sees a lot of missed calls from Valerian.

She texts him, "I will see you later, after my watering job Xxx"

"Okay, can't wait to see you."

After work, she changed into her waitress outfit which smells of dead fish, and she realizes someone put a dead fish in her bag.

She gets to Je Taime. "Hails, I missed you." as Matt embraces her and now the tears are threatening more than ever.

He pulls back, and he studies her face. "Are you okay?"

"In all honesty, no."

"What's wrong?"

"Work." as she walks past him.

"Is that why you smell rotten?"

She gives him that look, he laughs. "At least you smell like food you know."

After work she goes over to Valerian's house, she rings the door bell and he answers it. "You look tired Hailey." as he embraces her.

"And you look better." as she smile at him. She tiptoes, and gives him a kiss, which he responds to. "I guess I should be sick more often."

She laughs as she nudges him. She gets in and sits next to him by the couch, "How was your day?"

"It was long and yours?"

"Nothing special, just recovering and missing you, Hailey."

"I missed you too." As she embraces him.

"Why didn't you pick up my calls yesterday?"

"Sorry it was so hectic, and I was super exhausted."

"Did something happen?"

"No." as she reassured him.

They sit and talk for a while. "Its late I better get going."

"It was nice seeing you, I really missed you."

He walks me out and he kisses me, and she return his kiss.

"Goodnight Sir," as she salutes him.

"Night Hailey." He grins at her.
