I walked into the office at exactly 7:30. I didn't want to be late and have Mr Adrios scold me. I went to the cafeteria downstairs to get his plain black coffee and got a latte for myself. I wondered when he was going to come and if his coffee wouldn't have been cold by then. I just decided to keep it in his office anyway so he'd see it once he comes.

    I opened the door to his office and there he sat in all his glory looking devilishly handsome, rich and powerful sitting on his executive chair. But he's not supposed to be here by now. I remembered his words yesterday, "I don't want to be here before you."

   An immediate frown appeared on his face and without looking up he spoke. " I thought I told your to be here before me and my coffee should be on my table as well." he stated calmly but with the way he spoke I know he was far from being calm, he was furious.

   What was I supposed to do? leave the coffee in his office overnight?

   "You did sir and that's why I'm here early with your coffee." I replied with all the courage I could muster.

   "You call this early?" he didn't hide his anger now as he shouted. He stared at his Rolex before continuing. "This is 7:45."

   I was frustrated, work doesn't even start till eight or nine and here he was making an issue out of nothing.

  "So when was I supposed to come? six-thirty? Or better stlil should I have spent the night in your office? " I furiously asked

  "Are you asking me? "he glared. "I don't give a damn if you're here by five, I gave you a simple instructionand you couldn't follow it."

   "Well I'm sorry sir." I apologized calming down. " I didn't know when you were going to be here."

   "Just drop the coffee on my table and leave my office." he ordered angrily.

  Him and his anger issues, how can someone be so angry and annoying so early in the morning? Maybe one of his flings denied him or told him he was bad at sex. I think that's enough for him to be angry, it'd have hurt his ego so much.

  I dropped the coffee carefully on the table before walking to the door. As I was about to open the door, I heard the sound of something being spat out.

  "What the hell is this?" he asked angrily causing me to turn, he was so angry I could nearly see the steam coming from his ear.

  "Co-coffee." I stuttered as a reply.

  "What type of coffee?" he inquired

  "Plain black coffee like you requested." I answered starting to get nervous. Isn't it coffee that's in it?

  "Can't you just do something good for once, why are you so bad at following orders. First you were late, secondly no coffee on my table and when it finally arrives it tastes horrible. So tell me Miss West, just what can you do? " he asked angrily

   "I'm sorry sir, I'd go get you something else." I apologized walking forward to take the cup away.

   "Just get out of my office Miss West." he snapped and I wasted no time in seeing myself to the door. 

   I sighed immediately I got to my office . How on earth was I supposed to know that he'd be here earlier than seven thirty and isn't all black coffee supposed to taste horrible?

   I don't think I'd be able to stand his attitude, I will most likely resign and find another job where I can get peace of mind, and that's definitely not with him. He just made my blood pressure rise.

  By nine he called me to his office telling me to get ready since we would be going to the site for the new project. I got my things ready making sure that all I'd need was inside, I don't want him humiliating me there.
