chapter 6

I woke up groaning, I didn't want to get up from bed I couldn't at all, I looked around the room and began to panic this wasn't my bed nor my room, then it all hit me I was in my boss's home, I went in to the bathroom and took off the shirt I was wearing and took a quick bath I had to show my boss I wasn't incompetent, I changed into my old clothes, I looked at the t-shirt and thought that it was best I took it home for a nice wash and return it back, I went downstairs and found my boss standing in the parlor, he looked up at me in a scrutinising way, he went out the door and I followed, the car was parked in front of his house we got in and we drove off," take us to the nearest suit store" he told the driver, he nodded and we took a turn, I wondered what he wanted to do at a suit shop it took a few minutes for us to get there, thr car stopped and I waited for him to go out," go get yourself another suit" he said, she looked at the driver and then her front, she wondered who he was talking to, he gave her his black card she finally realised it was her he was talking to, she got out and went into the store, the place looked expensive," what can we get you ma'am" an attendant said to me," uhm I'd like a new suit" I said to her," right this way" she said giving a gesture with hand," thank you" I told her an we walked into the women section, I scanned through a line of clothing from suits and trousers, I found something that caught my eye it was a red skirt and suit, I thought about it for a while then I picked it up, I showed it to the woman and she nodded in approval we went to the counter and I paid for it and left, I got in and handed him the card, he didn't say anything, I thought of thanking him but the words weren't coming out, as we drove I realised we weren't on the road back to the office, we parked in front of a saloon, I was shocked and wondered whether we were picking his girlfriend up," go I've already told them about your arrival" he said I turned to look at him, he was doing something on his tablet I wondered what was wrong with him, I got out from the car, with the bag I got from the store and went in, a woman who looked to be in her late forties came up to me," I'm Jane and I'll be assisting you" she said," thank you" I told her and followed her into the saloon, she showed me to a seat which I took, she walked upto some women and spoke to them about something and turned my way, I quickly looked down, the women who she was speaking to came to her, one of them untangled the messy bun she made out of hair and slowly brushed it, the other cleaned her face and started applying makeup on her face," where should I keep the red dye" a woman asked the one brushing my hair," in the back " she replied I turned to look at her," I would like to dye my hair red" I said, she nodded and got the red dye from the woman, I could feel as her hands massaged my scalp with the dye in a comforting manner, I always wanted to dye my hair but I couldn't afford the dye I was looking for and gave up on the idea of ever dyeing it but now I had the opportunity, it lasted for a few minutes resting on my hair and then she washed it off, dried it and curled it into wavy curles, I got up from the chair to look at another mirror,cause I couldn't believe I was staring at my own reflection, I went into a private room and put on the dress I bought, it complimented my new hairstyle, I got out from the room and the woman who I met earlier came up to me," you look more beautiful than when you first came here" she said, I didn't know whether she was insulting me or complimenting me, I walked out of the building to my boss's car, I opened the car door and got in, the driver looked at me with his eyes opened" I'm sorry ma'am but you're in the wrong car" he told me his voice shaking," wrong car what are you talki...." she was interrupted by her boss" drive" he said and the driver didn't bother saying anything.
