Babysitting my Boss (English Version)

When Shaina got home from the interview, she almost dropped her body on the sofa of their rented boarding house. She was sweaty, tired, and full of bad feelings about her day. To make it worse, she could still smell the mud on her body. She had not even started to rest when RJ, her ever-loyal and ever-loud best friend, showed up.RJ was already waiting in the living room, sitting cross-legged on the center table like a queen. He was wearing colorful shorts and a neon green sleeveless top while waving a fan like it was a prop in a drag show. When he saw her, he almost screamed.“Oh, here comes the queen of the job interview!” RJ shouted, almost jumping toward the sofa. But when he saw her face, which looked like she had been attacked by two angry gays, he stopped and raised an eyebrow. “What happened to you, girl?”She did not answer him and just went inside the bathroom to take a bath, hoping the smell of mud would finally go away. She could still see Lukas in her mind—the arrogant wa

When Lukas left Shaina alone in the office, she finally had time to look around. And when she did, she couldn’t help but be amazed. The room was big, with floor-to-ceiling glass walls that showed the whole city, and polished floors that looked like no one had ever stepped on them. Not a single piece of trash, not even a candy wrapper. Everything was neat and in order. From the dark wood furniture, the black leather swivel chair, to the minimalist paintings on the wall.Beautiful, she whispered to herself.And above all, it smelled like a man. Not the bad sweaty smell, but a fresh, woody scent that made anyone turn their head.“This will be your desk.”She jumped when she realized Lukas was already standing beside her, one hand in his pocket, pointing coldly at a desk near her.What the heck! Why are you so cold? she screamed in her head.She walked toward the desk he pointed at, feeling awkward.Wait! Does this mean we’ll share the same office? she asked herself in shock. She stopped

“Miss Dela Cruz.”Shaina stopped what she was doing and quickly looked up. She was editing a document to pass to her boss when he suddenly called her. Even if he was not looking at her, she could feel the weight of his voice. It was like with just one call, she should stand up right away and run to report or do what he asked.Lukas, like always, was sitting in his swivel chair, leaning back, but his eyes showed he was very sleepy. His fingers were fast typing on the laptop keyboard, but his eyes were half-closed.She glanced at her watch and saw it was already three in the afternoon. Of course, anyone would feel sleepy at that hour. But instead of giving in, Lukas Vergara had his own solution.“Yes, sir?” she asked, pretending to be innocent, even if deep inside she just wanted to look busy. Who knows what task he might throw at her again? If she was not tied to this job, she would have already said, “Make your own coffee, boss.”“Coffee,” he said, cold and straight.She knew it. Coff

Shaina went straight to the office while trying to calm her chest. Her heart was beating so fast and she didn’t even know why. Or maybe she knew, but she was just denying it. She took a deep breath and opened the office door. Her boss wasn’t there yet, so she let out a sigh of relief. At least she had time to calm down.No matter what she did, she couldn’t stop thinking about Lukas’s question earlier.Do I smell good?It kept repeating in her head like a broken record, together with his small smile. Did he really smile at her? Or did he only do that to tease her?God, of all the bosses she could have, why him? The kind of man that can make you weak in one second, then annoy you the next.She fixed her seat and opened her laptop. She pulled out her planner from her bag and checked her boss’s schedule for the day. She tried to look busy and focused, even though her nerves were shaking. Any second, Lukas might walk in, strict and cold again.When she heard the door open, her eyes quickly

Shaina was quietly fixing the folders on her desk. She felt like this was the hardest job of her life. It was the kind of work where you arrange things that were already arranged. What else was there to fix? She shook her head again. Bad luck, maybe. She just kept working.“They never run out. My God. How many more folders before I hit him with this stapler?” she whispered to herself with a sigh. As if she could really do that.Before she could complain more in her head, the office door opened and her boss walked in with a frown, as if she had already done something wrong. He looked like a dragon about to spit fire.“Ms. Dela Cruz,” his cold voice rang through the office, so loud it felt like he was using a megaphone. “Where is the quarterly report? I needed it ten minutes ago. Our client is already waiting in the meeting room!”She gasped and rolled her eyes in secret. What now? Of course, she was already used to this. For him, she was always the one at fault. She tried to stay calm,
