"Shit. Shit. Shit." Desiree chanted under her breath as she slipped into her black blazer. It was her first day at work, and she didn't want to be late at any cost, but for some reason, her alarm didn't work."Ease up, Des," Sophia said as she noticed Desiree frantically combing her brown hair."You don't know her, Soph. He will literally suck the soul out of me if I am late," she retorted and picked up her car keys, wallet, and other essentials."She couldn't be that bad," Sophia commented, earning a scowl from Desiree the very next minute."Not that bad?
