The Grumpy Boss

Olivia’s POV

I groaned as I heard my phone beep; it was the Alarm I set yesterday; yes! Today is a big day for me, but for some reason, I wasn't pleased. 

Memories I shared with Daniel came flashing, last night I wasted myself because I felt so heartbroken

I expected Daniel to cheer me up today, but no one was here, just me, in this house.

I dragged myself out of bed, reluctantly walked into the bathroom brushed my teeth and had a bath. I was feeling weak after yesterday's painful event. "Why," I said as a tear fell from my eyes

My head was aching after drinking so much alcohol yesterday. I found Daniel cheating on me with a blonde yesterday morning. Daniel knew how important this day was to me, yet he fucked me up

I was in so much pain and regretted ever going to his apartment to surprise him. I have an interview with a prestige company today. If I get a job in this company, I would never suffer again, and I and Daniel decided to celebrate it

"I promise to be there with you, and I will" Those were Daniel's words

"You're a total asshole; get your voice out of my head," I said as I stormed out of the bathroom and rubbed my lotion; I chose the outfit for the day.

"Ahhh, what exactly did Daniel want? I thought he loved and cherished me; I can't believe he did this to me,” I said.

I stared at myself in the full-view mirror, wearing a black skirt and a pink long-sleeve shirt. I was proud of how I looked

I had practiced what to say today in my interview; since I graduated from school, I have been job hunting, but most of the jobs I saw didn't pay well, and Olivia being Olivia, would never settle for less

I walked out of my room and entered my sitting room; the whole place was empty, just me. Millions of memories began to flash in my head

After I was done with breakfast,I left the house and locked the door behind me. Reflecting on my life. I only knew a few things about my parents; my mother died while giving birth to me, and my father lives in a big town with his other family. 

"I wish you could see me, Mom," I said; although I never knew my mother, I respected her for one thing, I am alive today because of her 

"Babe, this isn't what you think", I recalled my ex-boyfriend, Daniel telling me. 

"I can explain," he said and trailed behind her, but I didn't want to listen to his excuses

"I'm not blind; I know what I saw, and you can't convince me otherwise," I said

"What did you expect" Those words made me halt; I didn't understand what he said

"What did he mean?" I thought
