Chapter 16

Gabi was led upstairs to Mrs. Bixby’s office. Irwin didn’t give her any indication why she was being called into the office. Just smiled and said she was supposed to follow him.

Once upstairs her nerves kicked in. She didn’t like Mrs. Bixby. Mrs. Bixby seemed to hate her, and she had no idea why. She followed Irwin in the old woman’s office and took the chair he offered her. Then he stood behind her somewhere.

“You wanted to see me?” She asks the old bat, Mrs. Bixby. Gabi tried to be pleasant, but it was hard the way the old woman treated her last time she was in her office.

“Yes, I have been told to give you a new position. Seems I need a personal assistant. You will now have your own office next door. It is being set up as we speak. I thought I had till morning to get it prepared for you. I see I don’t. You will be helping me with typing up letters to employees and such. You might have to help deliver things to the other floors. Maybe help make up flyers to advertise special going on in our restaurant or in the casino. We do have show’s that we send out flyers for. Sometimes I will send you on errands as well. We put ads in the newspapers as well as phone books. We will play it by ear, I guess. I haven’t made up a list of things to have you do yet. I just found out you were being given this position. I didn’t realize I needed help.”

Her phone rang. The red phone. Gabi had learned the last time she was in her office that phone was the big boss calling. She tried to listen in, but Irwin stepped up to talk to her distracting her.

“Don’t mind her, she is a bitter old woman. You have earned a better job and a bigger paycheck. The big boss likes your work. It’s an honor to be moved up into an office. Have you ever worked in an office before?”

“Yes, actually I have. I used to work for a Cabin rental place and helped with the books as well as a tour guide and customer service. I guess I am a jack of all trades.” Jack? That one thought took her back to him. Her depression must have shown.

“Are you all right Gabi? You seemed to get lost there for a moment. Gabi? Hey, why are you crying again? Did I upset you?” Irwin watched as tears slid down her cheeks.

“No, sorry. I don’t know what is wrong with me. I got lost in my thoughts for a minute. Sorry, it won’t happen again.” She wiped her tears away. She smiled up at him as if nothing had happened, but he had seen.

“You know, if you ever need someone to talk to, I’m here for you. I am a pretty good listener. I won’t judge. Just listen. I won’t even give advice unless you need some.
