Bestest and proudest achievement

"So that means I can take three days leave whenever I want to?" When Patricia nodded her head, Ellie thought for awhile and asked, "What if I want to take a leave starting tomorrow?"

"Well, then you get a leave for three days. You have to remember that it's only valid for the first three months so use it when you want to take a break or you have something important to do."

Ellie nodded her head and continued reading the contract until someone from the HR department arrived and took her away to complete the remaining procedures.

After signing the contract and taking her appointment letter from the HR department, Ellie was called by Patricia again.

Giving her a list, Patricia said, "This is the official meetings and appointments that the boss has to attend. Your office is in the same floor as-"

"El, you are here." Melissa shouted before rushing towards her best friend.

Giving her a hug, Melissa asked, "Did you sign the contract? Did they give you your appointment letter? And did they-"

Cutting her off, Ellie placed her hand on Melissa's shoulder. "Calm down Mel, what are you so worried about? Everything is already done and Patricia was telling me something about my office when-"

"Oh don't worry about that because we share the same office. It's on the same floor as Noah and Sebastian's office. Let's go, I'll show you around." Without waiting for Ellie's reply, Melissa dragged her away.

...

Sebastian's office.

Rolling his eyes at his cousin, Noah frowned deeper. "Oh come on Seb, don't be such a baby. It's just a get together and no one whom you haven't met before will be attending it. The only new one is Ellie and you have met her already. By the way, where is your new assistant?"

Looking around when Noah didn't see Ellie, he frowned. "Did you-"

"I sent her down to the HR team."

"Good, for a second I thought that you booed her away. Anyway, now that you have a beautiful and hot assistant, I hope your hormones will charge up a bit and start giving you a boner every now and then." When Sebastian gave Noah a disgusted look, Noah shrugged his shoulders. "What? Don't you know that a man has to ejaculate at least thirteen times a month to prevent prostate cancer and of course blue balls."

"Can you not talk about sex all the time?" Sebastian was sick and tired of Noah who always kept on forcing him to sleep around with different kinds of women.

"You know how blissful and lively my sex life is right?" Touching the wooden desk, Noah murmured, "Touch wood."

"Seriously? What are you? Five?" Sebastian asked.

"What? Don't wanna jinx it okay? I am very much satisfied and super happy with what I have right now and you know how wonderful Mel is right? You know Seb, falling in love with her was the second best thing that has happened in my life."

"Uh Huh, then what is the first one?"

Cupping his own face, Noah sighed and cheekily smiled. "Hiring her as my assistant was the bestest and the proudest thing I have ever done in my entire life. Imagine what would've happened if I didn't hire her that day?"

Tapping his fingers on the desk, Sebastian asked, "So hiring her is the proudest and bestest thing you've ever done?" When Noah nodded his head, Sebastian added, "Then what about the degrees and all your achievements? Aren't you proud of them? Shouldn't you be more proud of them?"

"Mom says that all those are materialistic happiness. Yes, it sure makes one happy after achieving everything but that happiness is nothing in comparison to the genuine happiness that you feel-" pointing towards the left side of his chest, Noah added, "Here. So the conclusion is that whatever that makes you happy from the bottom of your heart is your greatest and proudest achievement and Melissa makes me happy from the bottom of my heart so doesn't that make her my greatest achievement?"

When Sebastian chuckled and helplessly shook his head, Noah asked, "What?"

"Aunt Rosy and her brilliant ways of seeing things. You know that your mom is great right?" Sebastian loved the way Rose Stewart, Noah's mother saw everything so differently and positively. It was refreshing and heartwarming.

"Dude, she is my mother so she is obviously great." Glancing at his watch, Noah quickly got up. "Damn I have a meeting in fifteen minutes and before that I gotta give Mel a shoulder massage. I'll take my leave man, see you in the evening."

Stopping Noah, Sebastian smiled and said, "I am happy for you and Mel."

"And I hope you also find your bestest and proudest achievement very soon. Even I want to see you all bright and happy man."

After Noah left, Sebastian sighed and took a deep breath. Would he ever manage to find his bestest and proudest achievement?

Helplessly shaking his head, Sebastian brushed the silly thought aside. He had long lost all his hopes. Which woman would actually dare to love a man like him?

...

"This man is crazy Mel. I am telling you, he is a fucking psychopath." Tossing the papers aside, Ellie crashed on her chair and massaged her forehead. Her mind had blown away after reading Sebastian's schedule carefully.

"Well, it's Sebastian babe. What else do you expect from a workaholic and perfectionist like him?" Melissa asked.

"This is just insane, this man also has his meals planned and not only for a day or two, it's for the whole fucking week. Why? Why would anyone plan their meals like this? Is he a man or a robot?" Ellie couldn't really understand the need of pre-planning his meals. Don't normal people eat whatever they feel or want to?

Looking at her best friend who was on the verge of freaking out, Melissa couldn't contain her chuckle. "Look at you going all crazy on the first day. What will happen when you start following Sebastian around everyday?"
