Chapter 6
Hey what are you doing? "I ask him really wanting an answer.
"I needed a drink don't you? "He says unbuckling his seat belt.
I blink at him my mouth agape and he smiles.
"You have a cabinet full of liquor in your office so I don't get why you want a drink here. "I reason but it doesn't do much.
"Lets just go in. "
"I want to go home. "I say not moving from my current spot.
He walks towards my door, opens it and drags me out. I try to loosen his grip but give up in the end, I get an I idea.
"Fuck ow!! "He says letting my hand drop to my side and I smile innocently.
"You bit me! "
"You dragged me out here without my permission. "
"That’s no reason to sink your teeth into my flesh!" He says rubbing the spot as I watch it redden. I think I bit him too hard.
I tap my chin as if thinking of something.
"If that’s not a reason, what is? "
"Fuck off, “He says and he sighs “you can sit in the car and wait."
"I am not waiting for you Nathan, I'm going home now. "I say as I adjust my bag strap over my shoulder and walk away from him.
"Go ahead, I'm not chasing after you. "
I'm taken back by what he just said but carry on walking. "I wasn't expecting you to. "Plain ass lie right there.

"Did you make sure the documents got to Mr Williams? "
"Yes…but I didn't give it to him directly, I gave his assistant. "
His gaze focuses on me with his head slightly tilted looking at me intently in a are you stupid manner.
"What? " I ask.
"Are you stupid? "
So it finally comes .
"Of course not. "
"Well ,so far your actions are stupid, your thinking is stupid and even you. I didn't think the University of Barcelona accepted such…err…",he waves his hand around looking for the word “things. "
"What did I do? "
He looks at me angrily and eyed me up and down. "Oh…so she's dumb too. "
Okay that hurt.
"You gave the assistant the file when I specifically instructed you to hand it to Mr Williams himself! God, even my dog's smarter than you!! " he spat.
I begin to walk out when I feel the tears threatening to stream down my cheeks.
"I'm not yet done with you!, come back here! "He yells.
Oh that does it.
"I'm not your dog!! "I shout at him and storm out heading straight to my office ignoring the concerned looks I'd been receiving.

I get home early ready to sleep and decide to welcome dreamland. I wasn't going to work the next day.
In the afternoon I decide to get some fresh air and at this moment I'm just taking a walk around the city, a thing I hadn't done in a long time.
