“The New Guy” Part I
She had decided to break it off, it was the only way to return her life back to sanity. The whirlwind feelings of a new relationship had swept her off her feet, and she had completely lost her mind in the process. ‘How stupid, you’re not 16 you’re 39 Veronica.” She mentally kicked herself and chastised herself. She’d been doing that a lot lately.
It started at work. An office friendship with the new hire, 10 years younger than she is. Funny, smart, shockingly good at his job. Her first thoughts had been that he’d be making partner before she did if he kept that same energy level. It didn’t help that the VP clearly liked him; she could sense that good ol’ boy network doing the same magic it always did. While she worked her ass off with 50 hour weeks some new hotshot from a competing firm comes right in and takes a lead position. Yes he was good at his job for sure.
