“Oh, and yes, after some extensive research, I’ve discovered who ‘Ricardo Vega’ is. A horrific monster if I may say so myself.”

“Christopher.” He called, voice barely rising above speaking volume. It only took a few seconds for the door to shick open, as though the personal assistant had been waiting just outside for such a summons. Ricardo didn’t look up, still absorbed in his quest. “Have you happened to have seen my-”

The CEO looked up and blinked.

Perched in the assistant’s ears were Ricardo’s most expensive earrings. The little gold and ruby balls stood out against Christopher’s ears and matched the gold tie pin that perched slightly above the center of his chest that had been a gift from Ricardo last May. 

“Sir?” Christopher tucked a stray piece of hair behind his ear, and Ricardo swallowed. It was getting long again, meaning that Christopher had probably been too busy to get it cut. Meaning that Ricardo had probably been running him too hard again, and during a relatively quiet week as well. He made a mental note to fix that. 

“Never mind.” The CEO replied, standing and dusting off his knees. Christopher would be left to puzzle over the eccentricities of his employer, but that was a common state for the assistant to be left in. “Lets get lunch. You can tell me everything I need to do today and gripe at me about how little I’ve accomplished.”
