Waking up earlier than expected I called into work to inform them I would be calling off today. My babies needed a relaxed mommy and me day.
They were crying in their sleep last night. Amir would wake up sweating a few times
my heart broke. I did this shit to them again
I wiped a tear as the line connected " MoneyPiece Records. Nancy speaking"
"Hey Nancy its Stephanie I wanted to call in to inform that I can't make it into work today...."
" That's perfectly fine. Mr. Brewster informed us that you would not be in. Also Congratulations on the promotion. See you Tuesday Steph!"
Before I could even question her on what she said she hung up.
Getting out the bed without waking up the kids I walked to use the bathroom washing my face, brushing my teeth then making my way downstairs to make them some breakfast.
I was met with a shirtless Dave sitting at his counter reading through paperwork "'morning"
"What did you do?" He finally looked up at me taking in my shorts that hugged my thighs and baggy T-shirt
He went back to his paperwork before answering "I'm going to need more than that Susie"
"Nancy gave me congratulations on my promotion. That Mr. Brewster already informed them I wouldn't be in. Who are you?"
He smirked taking a sip from his coffee mug " Co-CEO of MoneyPiece and you're my own personal assistant.... Is there a problem?"
It's a promotion Steph meaning more benefits, more money. Even if it means you have to work for Dave you providing for your kids.
But knowing me I always wanted the last word. I looked at him " my name ain't Susie negro". He had a deep laugh as he shook his head
"I know"
Going towards the refrigerator I found it surprisingly stocked. Pulling out eggs, milks, turkey bacon, butter, and cheese and placed them on the counter.
I was stuck for a minute looking around when I seen him put away the paperwork and got up grabbing out pans and showing me where everything else was placed
" Thankyou"
He nodded sitting down watching me " you have a staring problem"
He shrugged sitting back "Maybe I just like what I'm staring at"
I chose not to give him a rebuttal getting straight to work. He left the kitchen to go change for work giving me a chance to be with my thoughts
