Anna woke up, checked her phone to see that it was Saturday. Knowing that information brought a huge smile to her face and put her in a great mood.
The job description at McArthur’s said that she has weekends off. Giving her enough time to practice what she truly loves the most, which is basketball. After doing her everyday morning routine, she goes to the basketball court with her friends she made at the court to train and have a fun session.
She brought a sports bag with all her training gear and necessities, which included a jump rope, basketball, an extra pair of sports sneakers, knee pads, drinks, a granola bar, and extra clothes to change into. The basketball court has a female locker room inside, so that no one can take her valuable possessions away.
“Are you girls ready to practice and have some fun today?” Anna asked her friends.
“Yes!” They all said in unison, which made Anna happy that they were prepared.
The first thing that they did was stretches. It was crucial to stretch before doing anything else. Stretch out their legs, arms, and muscles. Stretching Improves performances in any physical activities, decreases risks of injuries, helps joints move through their full range of motion, increases muscle blood flow, enable muscles to work most effectively, and improve abilities to do daily activities.
They got done stretching after fifteen minutes of doing it. Now, they were focused on their cardio because Basketball deals with a lot of running. Every sport has running involved but Basketball was one of the main sports where players have to constantly run from back to forth. They didn’t want anyone slacking or not giving their all. So everyone’s cardio needs to be in the best physical condition.
After ten minutes, they were done running. Now, they got 10 minutes to do any exercise they choose. Anna chose to do jump roping, she always loved to jump rope. As a child, she jumped rope almost every day. Now as an adult, she made jump roping an everyday thing. Jump roping helps boost her heart health, improve her coordination, build and maintain her bone density, increases her running speed, and ease her anxiety.
Easing her anxiety was one of the main reasons why she loves exercising and playing basketball. Anxiety consumed the majority of her life, especially all the mess she dealt with the accident and her sponsors giving up on her. So playing basketball and focusing on her health, helps get rid of any nerves and puts her back in the right state of mind.
They all get done with exercising, so they take a thirty minute break to rest their bodies and get nutrition in them before playing a game of basketball.
The game was about to start until she got a call from Allen, her boss. She was wondering why he was calling her. She picked up her phone and answered.
“Hello?” Allen asked.
“Yes?” She asked, still questioning why he would call her.
“I hope I’m not disturbing you?” He curiously asked.
“I’m about to play a game of basketball.” She replied, telling the honest truth.
“Oh, sorry to interrupt you. But I want you to come to work right now.” He told her.
After he said that to her, she got off from the bench she was sitting on. She almost threw a temper tantrum. The urge to cuss him out and yell at the top of her lungs was strong. She thought she had days off from work on weekends. Now, her boss wants her to work on a Saturday. She didn’t even get the chance to play basketball with her friends.
She had three options for her to choose from. The first one was to hang up the phone and ignore him. The second was to go off on him and get aggressive. The final option was for her to comply and do as he said.
She decided to go for the third option. She really wanted to do the first and second option, but she didn’t want to lose her job she just got. Plus, she needed all the money she could. She sighed and responded to him.
“Alright, I will come to work today.” She told him.
“Good. When you come to work, I want you to help me get things ready. My friends and I want to have a small sports fest at my house. What time are you willing to come?” He asked.
“I’m coming in one hour. I need to leave the basketball court, go back home and take a shower, put on my makeup and work clothes.” She replied.
“Alright, I will see you soon!” He said, hanging up the phone call.
She went to the locker room, grabbed all her belongings and left without saying anything to anyone. Saying that she was frustrated was an understatement. She doesn’t mind earning extra money, but her boss lied to her that she had weekends off at her workplace. If she knew she was working today, she wouldn’t have went to the basketball court. Now, she has to miss out on a fun game of basketball with her friends. Hopefully, the job pays her a lot of money for working on a Saturday.
She was back home in her room, putting her bag in the closet. Taking out all the items inside and putting them in the right place they belong.
Taking off her clothes and headed to the shower. She took a 10 minute shower. In those ten minutes, she was thinking about if she made the right choice by joining McArthur’s and working for Allen. Yes, he is rich but she feels like being his assistant was taking away from her love of basketball. But she could not turn down a good paycheck. Plus, he was rich. If he wasn’t, she would not be working for him at all.
After she got done with the shower and drying herself off, she put on her panties and bra. Then, she found the clothes she was going to wear to work today. A pink blouse and a black pencil skirt, she made sure to iron those clothes. She does not want any winkles or mess on her work attire.
Usually, she doesn’t wear fancy clothes. She loves dressing casually everywhere she goes. But it was required for her to dress properly at this workplace. Plus, his friends are coming over to his mansion today, so she had to look like a million bucks around his rich friends.
After ironing her work clothes, she puts them on. Tucking in her blouse in her skirt, so that no skin was showing. There was a little bit of cleavage showing, but it wasn’t a lot to show off anything sexy.
She knew how horny male bosses get when they have a female assistant or secretary. It was like they could not keep their dicks in their pants. She always questioned why male bosses always thirst over their female assistants. She does understand that women bosses thirst after their male assistants, but that is a rarity. All she cared about was that Allen was not thirsting after her. She does not want that drama in her life.
Before she could put on her makeup, one of her friends, Michelle, who was at the basketball court today called her phone.
“Hello, Anna?” Michelle asked.
“Yes, girl?” Anna asked.
“Why did you leave so early at the basketball court without letting us know? We were about to play a fun game of basketball.” Michelle questioned.
“My boss called me to work today, even though I was supposed to have weekends off from my job.” Anna told her.
“Wow, that is messed up by him. If I were you, I would not have picked up the phone.” Michelle said, she just could not believe it.
“Trust me, I was thinking about doing the same thing.”
“Well, why didn’t you?”
“I don’t want to lose the job I just got, I really needed the money. I know I probably made the wrong decision, but I don’t want anything bad happening to me.”
“I understand. Just stay safe, don’t stress yourself out too much, and take care of yourself.”
“Thank you so much, Michelle.”
“No problem at all. Talk to you later, bye!”
“Bye!”
Anna hung up the phone. She checked the time and it was 2:30pm, she had thirty minutes to go to work. She put on her makeup, not too much where it is distracting, but just enough to be passable.
She cleaned up her room a bit, so that there was not one single mess surrounding her room. She doesn’t like it when there are any messes in her room. Her room was spotless, which made her happy.
Grabbed her purse and put all her valuable items inside. Double checked if she missed anything, she did not leave a single thing. She left her place and drove all the way to work. Hopefully, going to work on a Saturday was worth it for her.
