Mr. De La Cruz's POV

"You're such a bitch. How the hell do you upset Ruby everyday? Today she promised me a burger and I can't have it because she left work early"

Yolanda screamed at me. She's the desk lady. What does Ruby leaving early have to do with her? Man I hate this girl.

"Leave before I fire you. Now"

She rolled her eyes and leaned back in her seat. It's not my fault Ruby clocked out. I didn't force her to leave I just told her she couldn't wear any tight fitting clothes to work because she's too thicc.

When she was presenting her idea to the group of men all they were looking at is her body. Every step she took her booty jiggled.

That's the first time I've ever seen a woman's butt move that much. It usually stays still or it's non-existent.

"I just told her her body was disturbing the men in the room"

"Was it disturbing the men or the thing in your pants? Because I know you're like a horny teenage boy"

"Get the hell out of my office"

I said pointing to the door. She picked up her drink and stuck the middle finger at me. I watched her with a glare as she walked her ugly ass out of my office.

This girl will be the death of me. I want to fire her but I can't.

I leaned back in my chair and thought about what Yolanda said. My pants couldn't be the only one that got tighter when Ms. Carter got up. There's no way.

I pressed the intercom and waited for Yolanda to pick up the damn phone. She didn't respond out of the pettiness of her black, small, shriveled heart. This is why I don't like this girl.

After calling her three more times she finally answered. All I heard was her breathing. She didn't say a word.

"Come pick up Ms. Carter's paycheck and give it to her"

I said then hung up. Twenty minutes later she walked in my office with a burger king bag in her hand. She ate her burger in the doorway then walked completely in. She wiped her hand on my suit then grabbed the paycheck from my desk.

"On your way out call Ashley in for our appointment"

"I'm not calling that HIV stick in here so you can fuck her. Call her on your own phone or she's not coming up here. I refuse to talk to her"

Once again, if I could fire her, I would.

Ruby's POV

Have you ever taken a shower then right when you start drying yourself you have to take a shit?

Right now that's how I feel except for I don't need to take a shit. I'm just mad and frustrated.

I don't know who that guy thinks he is telling me that I have too much junk in my trunk. It's not my fault I'm shaped like a glass Coke bottle.

But I have to listen to him. He's my boss.

Right when I was about to go to sleep I heard a knock on my door. I swear if it's that De La Cruz guy I'm throwing him out my window.

When I opened the door I was meet with the squeal of Yolanda. She tackled me in a hug and started jumping up and down. Well someone's happy to see me.

I walked out and quickly closed the door behind me before Yolanda can catch a glimpse of my disappointing apartment.

"I'm here to tell you that you secured the bag. Here's your first paycheck"

She said handing me a white envelope. I slowly opened it, a little scared of how much money I worked for this week.

The paycheck read I made eight thousand dollars just for this week.

I held it up to the light to make sure my eyes weren't playing with me. Maybe they switched my paycheck with someone that's been working at that place for fifty years.

"Is this correct?"

I said as I showed her the check. She took a look at the paycheck and gasped. She grabbed the check and held it up to the light too.

"My first paycheck was for one hundred dollars. That idiot said I was lucky he didn't give me a penny"

I laughed and took the paycheck from her. I can pay my rent, buy new work clothes, buy food, and save up for good apartment.

"What I don't understand is how you got your paycheck on your first week. He even told me he was going to start pay you every week. Everyone else gets paid every two weeks. You must be special"

She said with a smile as she wiggled her eyebrows. I rolled my eyes and started laughing. I rather eat dog shit then be with that little boy.

"Since I just got my paycheck do you want to go shopping tomorrow?"

I asked her. She nodded her head eagerly and started jumping up and down. Since now I have my first paycheck I finally get to treat myself.

After I buy clothes I'm going to buy groceries then put half of the remaining money in my savings account.

"A mall just opened downtown. I'll drive us there tomorrow after we eat breakfast"

I nodded my head in excitement. Tomorrow I'm off and I've never been happier. I always spent my Saturdays cleaning up broken glass out of my back from vodka bottles or cleaning up my blood. And sometimes both.

While we were talking she mentioned that Fridays at the office are casual Fridays. No wonder why everyone had on stylish clothes. Only the boss and I had on work clothes.

My style is expensive and very tasteful. I've just always been broke. Now that I got bread it's a wrap for these hoes.

After she left I opened up my door with a joyful song on my tongue. "Can you do a split on a dick shittttt" I song out in utter happiness.

I guess now I don't have to be petty and buy a robe to wear to work. Or maybe I should. Should I?

I shrugged my shoulders and went in my room. I laid down on the ground and went to sleep.

Things are finally looking up for me.

Thank God because Lord knows I would've burned down De La Cruz inc. any day now.

Monday morning

I'm so freaking happy it's Monday. Mondays are a gift from God.

I usually hate Mondays but I got my hair and nails done over the weekend and I can't wait for me to stunt on these hoes.

I ignored the roaches that ran under the cracked tub and went to brush my teeth. Those bugs can't ruin my good mood this morning. They could form a cult and I still wouldn't care.

After I finished taking a shower I skipped to my room and went in the mall bags that I've been patiently waiting to go through.

I picked out my long baby blue coat with my baby blue skirt and beige and white stripped shirt. I took the baby blue thigh high boots that was next to my stud earrings.

This outfit in total only cost me one hundred dollars. I found, everything including the earrings, in the clearance rack at Forever 21.

After I put on deodorant and lotion I put on my show stopping outfit. I went to the rusty mirror in my room and examined myself.

After I was done hyping myself up I took off my bonnet and head scarf to reveal my hair. It was a curly wig with a little design in the front.

Since Yolanda knew the hairstylist she only charged me one hundred ten dollars for me to get the wig and install the wig.

A knock was heard on my door causing me to snap out of it. It must be Yolanda since she told me she would give me a ride today.

I opened the door with a large smile on my face. It quickly feel when I saw who was standing at the door.

"Good morning to you too Ms. Carter"

Bitch.
