If I Loved You • Book One • * RV*

4 • Veronica •

It's a lil too late to say you're just sorry now, you kick me when I was down.
No Love

Today I had to wake up early as I had quite a lot to do before my interview. First things first I had to take a days leave from my boss.

Then, I had to go for my interview at exactly mine thirty. Meaning I am in a rush and have no time to dally. My annoyance for Jonathan had not completely left me but I needed his help.

So, I picked up my phone and called him, begging him to please help me pick up shoes at the mall, I bought new assessories for the interview as I had to make sure I didn't look shabby at all.

And of course he agreed to help me, after all he was trying to find a way to appease me.

Quickly, I took a shower making sure not to waste too much hot water, it's not like I had not much money. It's just that I had to save as I had a lot on my shoulders and no one else too share the burden with me.

After that, I fried some egg and ate with toasted bread and coffee. Luckily it didn't take me long to have that done, served and eaten.

I wore a blue pencil skirt, white top and blue jacket on top of it with a blue converse with it, for now since Jonathan had not brought my shoes yet.

Carrying my bag, I immediately began to make my way to the elevator for my building and I punched in the garage where my car was parked.

Not long after, I arrived and so came down the elevator and began my descent to the car when all of a sudden I heard running and turned quickly to see Jonathan running my way, panting.

It was a funny sight because I very well know that Jonathan hated running and even though he has a very fit body, running gets no credit for that.

"Smile all that you want. It's only because I love you that I am doing this for you" he said in-between breaths while leaning on a car.

Shaking my head, I looked at my watch to see it was eight thirty therefore leaving me an hour. "thanks a lot Jon. Why don't you come visiting when I'm back this evening? For now wish me luck"

He nodded, giving me a peck on the lips and walking off. I walked down to my car and got in, making my way to my office hoping that Logan would pardon me. It was foolish of me not to request one long ago wasn't it?

But anyway doesn't change a thing. Even if she would be fired today at least she had offers waiting. Hopefully she didn't screw up her interview today.

About ten minutes later, Veronica walked into her workplace. There was someone different at the reception today, Thomas.

She didn't bother signing in as she it was too late for that. So she simply rushed into the elevator and put in the number of her floor.

As soon as she rushed into the office she could hear Logan's voice going on and on about her being late. Veronica was almost scared but then she realized that this job opportunity was once and may never come her way again.

Logan spotted her quickly and began screaming her head off.

"Sorry. I had an emergency at the hospital. My mom has gotten worse and I'd appreciate it if you'd grant me a two day leave" I asked as politely as I could.

Logan stared at me, pissed off but still Veronica had little hope. "I'll only give you this leave because you've done good so far and seem to do your job well"

Veronica released a breathe of relief and smiled gratefully "thanks a lot Logan. I really appreciate that"

As usual Logan simply nodded her head and turned away.
