One month has passed unnoticed, and that long too Savannah has been working without her boss in the office. Yes, up to one month It's been passed Duke still hasn't come back from that business trip last did. Don't know what made the man feel comfortable living there, and that had made Savannah become think about it a little. And during that time too, the work that was done also without communicating with Duke. In addition to via email to confirm work and communicate there which is only limited work alone, Savannah really doesn't communicate anymore about other matters outside of working with Duke.

Indeed it seemed like something that should have happened in between both remember that it is the woman herself who asks and wants that matter. However, somehow for Savannah the relationship that happened in between her and the man became awkward and strange. However, Savannah still wants to be professional and do things accordingly with his wish that there be a boundary between boss and assistant in the world of work. And besides, the relationship between the women was with the current Dylan already have official status as lovers, making Savannah enjoy more time with his boyfriend at the time his work has become a little more free than before work together with his boss who always come to the office every day. So, Savannah and Dylan really enjoyed their time together quality by always spending it together.

As it was at this time, the finished work hours made Savannah direc tidied up his desk, which happened to be all his work done. And the woman's smile widened at the same time she saw the figure of Dylan coming and stepped him feet entered Savannah's office with a smile on his lips too.

"Hey, is your work done?" Dylan asked Savannah.

"Yes. Just now I wanted to tidy up my desk, and was about to come up to you in your workspace floor. How about you?"

“Unfortunately I still have some work to do as soon as possible I finish."

"Too bad. I just wanted to invite you to go out to dinner."

"I am sorry, Darling. But I can't.”

“But it doesn't matter. I'll wait until your work is done, and after that we can go together."

"Is that true?"

"Yes, of course. It doesn't matter that I waited a moment, in exchange for being a long time ago I once made you who are constantly always waiting for me.”

“I became very touched. Thank you for wanting do it, Darling.”

Touched, Dylan immediately pulled Savannah's body to him in his arms and hugged his lover's body for a moment.

"Okay. I still want to tidy up my desk. You come back to your desk. If I'm done here later, I'll be right away come to you." Savannah said taking off the hug.

"Okay. Then I'll be back."

After giving Savannah a quick peck on the lips, Dylan immediately stepped out of the woman's room to back to his room downstairs. And whereas the Savannah already saw the departure of his boyfriend, also immediately continued activities back which had stopped earlier with the arrival of the man. But at the moment Savannah had just piled some paperwork on his desk, she became distracted by the room lights the boss next to her, who suddenly lit up. Which room the lamp will not turn on if no one is there. Feeling suspicious about this, Savannah decided to stepped into the room. And after Savannah entered the room, apparently the figure of Duke was in his room and had already seated himself there. His gaze was focused on the cellphone in his hand, no noticed Savannah's steps approaching him.

"Hey, Duke. Are you back? Why didn't you tell me more formerly? I can prepare all the things you need during on your way home earlier," said the woman with a smile on her lips.

"Realization is having problems and is hampered, make an appointment with investors. Because there is something that must be discussed immediately regarding the details of costs which feels awkward in the construction of a hotel,” replied the man flatly without taking his eyes off the screen of the phone in his hand.

Savannah, who was quite surprised by the man's answer, didn't answer the greeting and also the question made her become silent for a moment. Savannah sensed that it seemed like Duke was starting to want to act professional as she wanted. After many things happened between the two, the woman did not expect that her boss it will change that fast. But that's exactly what she wanted, made Savannah think that she should be profesional. Shee also started to act professionally towards his boss.

"Yes, Sir. The next day, at lunch time. Do you have an appointment outside work at the time?”

"Yes, you can arrange it."

"Yes. Is there anything else you need at this time, Sir?"

“Order me a dinner. And I have dirty clothes in suitcase that are in the lobby and you can send it to the laundry service as usual."

"Yes, Sir. Is there anything else you need?”

"So far, that's all. But after this you don't go home anymore formerly. I still need you to help me in some way profession."

"Yes, sir. Then I'll order dinner for you and deliver your dirty clothes.”

After that, Savannah immediately rushed towards his room back to get his cell phone and wallet for go where to carry out the command that just got it. She who suddenly had a job, returned to making the woman immediately felt that she was going back to his pattern of working life which is old. Where she will always be preoccupied with the many requests of the boss for her it's like it used to be back.

And after taking the elevator, Savannah was about to go to the floor where Dylan was because she wanted to tell his boyfriend that she was the one who suddenly just suddenly have extra work, so dinner plans are it looks like it will be cancelled. But when the elevator door the ride was already open, Savannah was immediately confronted by a figure Dylan in front of her who looked like he was ready to go home.

“Hey, my work can be handled by my partner. So, we can go home now and go to dinner as you wish. Then, can we go now?"

"Hmm..., actually I can't, Dy. He just came back, and all of a sudden he gave some orders that I was unable to go home now. And after this I also have to wait for the one is in need of help with his work. So, our plan I think it's better to cancel." Reply Savannah while taking a step his feet left the elevator until she was facing Dylan.

"He is back?"

"Yes. Suddenly he was in his room and he did come back without tell me beforehand too.”

"If that's the case, I'd better get back to work again. So that we can be the same together overtime, and we can go home together later.”

"Like that? But I don't know until when he will allow me to go home."

"No problem. If I'm the first to done, I will waiting for you."

"Really? No problem?"

"Sure, Darling. Do you still doubt your boyfriend, huh?” say the man with a teasing smile, while pulling the waist Savannah into his arms.

“I never once doubted my boyfriend,” said Savannah while stroking Dylan's face gently.

"Then let's go back to our respective jobs before I do be seduced by this overwhelming charm of yours?”

"Very good idea. Then, I'll get back to work first. See you later."

With Savannah getting back into the elevator she had previously been in press the button on the outside, the two immediately parted ways back to each other's work that they want to do each other.

"I'm sorry I had to make you wait so long," said Savannah was very apologetic to Dylan on the other end through telephone line on his cell phone.

"No problem, Darling. I'm still faithfully waiting for you at my desk. Just get your work done there and no need to think about where I am."

"I really feel so guilty."

"Hey, come on. There's no need to feel so guilty."

“When you get to the apartment later, you will get a massage at your body that will feel good from me. In exchange for taste this guilt that I have.”

"I can't wait for that," Dylan replied with a chuckle and made Savannah who heard it smile immediately.

"Okay. Give me a little more time if he still won't let me come home, I'll just leave with that."

"Of course. I will be waiting for you."

"Okay, see you later."

"Okay. I love you, Darling."

"I love you too, Dy. See you later."

The end of the call, made Savannah return looked at the watch on his hand to see the current time. Don't know how many more times has Savannah looked at her present watch it was already eleven in the evening. However, neither did she ordered or given permission to be able to go home from work by the boss. Even though she was doing nothing but sitting inside silent in his chair. Savannah really want to come the boss and asked permission to go home because Dylan was been waiting for her since an hour ago at the man's desk, however Savannah felt that the situation was awkward between herself and Duke makes the woman have to think more about what is better she was not being overly professional with that man and it was no longer the time for her to be in the situation she used to be where his boss was always thought it was special.

“I need coffee. Give it a triple shot."

"Come right away, Sir."

Duke's voice coming from the intercom made Savannah immediately got up from his seat and walked to the corner of the room to make coffee on the bar counter the usual place where she made it drink for the boss. And without taking too long, a cup of coffee was finished the woman made. After that, Savannah stepped into his boss's room to give coffee.

"Your coffee, Sir." Said Savannah while placing the cup on top Duke's desk and right in front of him.

“Could you make a classification for getting an assistant and a secretary who can work like you? I want to open vacancies for one person who could have the right classification and corresponding."

"Um..., Sir. What do you mean by something like that?” Ask Savannah quite confused about the request that his boss wanted.

The woman also immediately had the thought that it seemed Duke no longer needed her as his employee, made Savannah assumed that the man was out of touch with her even if it is professional in the world of work. But all the bad thoughts that woman had, were immediately broken by the explanation what Duke said.

“You won't get fired if that's what you're afraid of. I just need an extra assistant. And with two assistants as well as secretaries, it seems they could cover all the work that makes you so overwhelmed every day.”

"If that's what you want, I will do it, Sir. And, when the deadline you want to be able to get an assistant and your second secretary?”

“I want it as soon as possible. Is two days too long?”

"Yes, sir. Two days deadline at your disposal. Then, do you want more specs again? Does it have to be a woman or a man? His age? Work experience? Or maybe something else?”

"You know what you have to do, Savannah."

"Hmm..., yes, Sir. I will classify them first and then you can review it.”

"No need tonight. You still have time for tomorrow. And, then you can just go home."

“Thank you, Sir. But after I made a classification regarding the candidates your assistant later which I will put on the website and I will share it. Work if it can be done tonight, why not? Isn't it like that, Sir?"

“Good thing for you. You've come to know your place in here."

Felt the last sentence addressed to her was like a satire with a tone of cynicism also right there, making Savannah not want to think about it further and longer because of her prefer to start walking slowly again to his room to start doing additional work again, before she will be completely free from his workspace which gradually felt more like a prison for her.
