Renly and I get to the office at one and find Darrin already in the waiting room for our two oâclock appointment. Marge is there, too, and she looks a little harried. I donât blame her; sheâs had to babysit Darrin for an hour.
I shoot her an apologetic glance and force myself to smile, even though I really want to crawl to my office and have a few moments alone. Why the hell donât people come at an appointed time? Donât they realize that I have things to do before Iâm ready for them?
âHave a good day,â Renly says, and I can hear the sympathy in his tone, though Iâm sure Darrin wonât pick up on it. âCall me if Marge needs to leave,â he says, adding her to the conversation. âOtherwise, Iâll be back at five.â
âSounds good,â I say. âSee you then.â
Renly leaves, and I feel a pang of regret as the door shuts behind him. Then I force myself to aim a business-appropriate smile at Darrin. âIâm so glad youâre here. Give me just a little bit to get set up and Iâll bring you in so we can run through the demo.â
Heâd been pushing out of his chair as I spoke, and now he settles back down again, looking a little bit frustrated. Well, too bad for him. Iâm a little bit frustrated, too. I hurry to my office and fire up my computer. As Iâm tapping my desk, waiting for the login screen to show up, Eric slides into my doorway, making me jump.
âI didnât know you were coming in today.â
He shrugs. âCatchup.â He cocks his head vaguely in the direction of the front office, his thick blond hair gleaming in the lighting. âI saw you had company.â
I roll my eyes. âHeâs not supposed to be here for another hour. I have things to tweak before I run him through the demo.â
Eric shrugs. âHeâs new at Greystone-Branch. Heâs eager to prove his worth.â
I nod. I know heâs right.
âDo you want me to go entertain him?â
âThanks, but poor Marge is on it. What are you doing here on the weekend?â
âTrying to catch up on all the projects. I know Nikki did me a favor bringing me back, and I donât want to let her down.â
Eric was hired about the same time that I was, when Nikki first decided she needed to bring on a team to help her with her business. Weâd gotten along great, but then Eric had been offered a sweet job in New York. Nikki and I had both been surprised when he left, because heâd been doing so well at her company, and there was so much room for growth. But Eric had stars in his eyes, and they tossed a lot of money at him and offered him all sorts of perks. From what he said, though, it didnât fit his personality. He was a cog in the machine, and he hated it. Heâd come back, and Nikki eventually offered him his old job again.
