Stephanie smiled hesitantly. The blond held out her hand, Stephanie took her hand in a firm shake.
"I'm Marianne Franklin, it's great to meet you! You will love it here." When the Marianne smiled her face lit up making her look less severe and softer. Stephanie could do nothing but smile back.
"Stephanie Ramy, a pleasure to meet you. I'm looking forward to my time here at T&A." Marianne giggled at that.
"I've always found the name tawdry. It always makes me giggle, you'd think being an adult I would have outgrown the silliness years ago." She smiled and led Stephanie down the long, white hall to the HR Department. She pushed open a glass door and motioned for Stephanie to follow her.
Stephanie gasped when she looked at the tall blond man behind the desk. The man didn't look up but when he heard Marianne's voice he called out "Hi, honey, did he finally choose someone?" Stephanie froze, of all the people in all the places in the entire world, HE would have to be here?
Marianne gave her an odd look and said, "This is my fiancee, Keith. Keith, this is our new hire, Stephanie Ramy." At the mention of her name, her ex-boyfriend looked up and their eyes clashed.
"Stephanie..." Keith began, but she held up a hand as if to ward him off.
"No, Keith, not here." Marianne stiffened beside her and glared at Keith.
"You know each other?"
"Yes," Stephanie said shakily. And they did know each other. They knew more about each other then their own families knew. They dated for four years all through her two years of high school, and while she was working at fast food joints to cover the bills.
Keith swallowed hard, stood up and stared at her helplessly. The cold-hearted bastard, he would deserve it if she told Marianne exactly what she knew him.
She should make him wiggle like a worm on a hook.
