New Colleague in the Company

After dropping off Millie, Mike and I hurried to the office. Today was not just Millie's first day, but also my first day at FB. Yesterday, I was so nervous that I didn't sleep well, and I kept imagining my first day at work. It was the same now. Looking at me, Mike reached out and took my hand.

"It's okay, don't be nervous. Don't forget I'm here."

"Um… Mike, I think we should stay away from each other at the office. I'm worried people will gossip."

"Okay, but you don't have to think so much. Everyone will see your outstanding working abilities soon."

Hopefully.

"Oh, right, according to the company's rules, there will be a welcome party for the newcomers after work today."

"Ah, well, can I not go? You know, I have to go back and take care of Millie."

"Um… I don't think it's a good idea not to go. After all, it's for your welcome party."

"I see. Then I'll talk to Mom and ask her to pick up Millie for me."
