Eavesdropping

Tuesday.
The next morning I did my daily routine and grab my social security and check any emails. No emails so far.
But...
I did received a message.

{ 🔴 End Of Message 🔴 }
I scroll through my phone and made sure I got everything.
When I arrived at the building, on the top floor, I saw mostly everyone here.
I quickly went to my desk and put my bag down.
Turning my computer on and saying,
Y/N
Y/N

Eren
Eren

Mikasa

Armin
Armin
Pretty delicious.
Y/N
Y/N
That’s glad to hear.
I smile at them and saw the stick note I left. Which had my password and ID. I type it down and once log in, I clock in.
Y/N
Y/N
I’m so cold in here!
Armin
Armin
Yeah, it gets pretty cold here.
Eren
Eren
I have a jacket hanging-
Mikasa
Mikasa
....Eren...what are you doing?
Eren
Eren
I want to hand her my jacket?
Mikasa
Mikasa
She didn’t brought her own?
Eren
Eren
No.
Mikasa
Mikasa
She can borrow mines.
Y/N
Y/N
...thank you.
Y/N
Y/N
Also....Armin...
Armin
Armin

Y/N
Y/N
Is there a way I can-
Mikasa
Mikasa
Here.
She tossed it from where she stood and I managed to catch it on time!
Y/N
Y/N
T-Thank you.
Mikasa sat down and continued working.
My smile faded and put it on.
Such a strong perfume. The fragrance had a mature smell. An impression of a mature woman. Strong but little sweet.
Y/N
Y/N
Oh right, Armin. I was going to ask...
Y/N
Y/N
Can I go and knock on Mr. Ackerman’s door?
Armin
Armin
Yes, you can.
Eren
Eren
I can company you if it makes you feel better?
Y/N
Y/N
Please.
Eren
Eren
Let’s go.
Eren again guide me and whispered to me,
Eren
Eren
I’ll wait for you here.
I nod.
I place my palm on the door then knock gently as I could.
Then I open the door.
Y/N
Y/N
Mr. Ackerman?
I poke my head to see him on the phone as he was standing by the glass windows, viewing the city.
Y/N
Y/N
Oh...
Levi turns around, glancing over his shoulders looking at me.
He pointed at the seat, allowing me to come in. So, I slowly did. Not wanting to interrupt the call.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
No, no, no, ya lo he enviado por correo electrónico.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Sí.
What?
What language is that?
Spanish?
He can speak more than just English?
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Escúchame, ve y comprueba el correo electrónico. Te lo he enviado hace dos días.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Ahora.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
No tengo tiempo para esto. Llámame después del trabajo. De lo contrario, tendremos graves problemas en este caso.
[ ⚠️ Admin Notes: I won’t be putting the translations. To make it more anonymous on the conversation. But if you are curious to know what he’s saying, well, someone can comment the translation in the comments or search on your own. ⚠️ }
Levi walked towards me and tossed the phone on his desk.
He look bother by the phone call.
Y/N
Y/N
Are you okay?
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
...doesn’t concerns you.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
So, why you want to see me?
Y/N
Y/N
My social security number...?
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Right.
Did he forgotten about that?
Probably because of the call is stressing him out?
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Well....?
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Are you going to hand it to me or not?
Y/N
Y/N
Oh right, sorry!
I dig in my bag and hand it to him.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Perfect.
He put it aside.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
You can go back to your work. I’ll hand it to you before lunch.
Y/N
Y/N
Thank you, Mr. Ackerman.
I got up and walked out from his office and saw Eren at the quiet hall, looking at the view.
Y/N
Y/N
Hey.
Eren
Eren
A-ah..
Eren turns around. By the looks at it, it seems I’m caught him off guard.
Eren
Eren
H-Hey, sorry I was looking at the view.
Eren
Eren
Look how big is New York and there more out there. I wonder what is beyond more than just a city...
Y/N
Y/N
You never traveled before?
Eren
Eren
No...
Eren
Eren
I always been in the city.
Eren
Eren
Like I say, Mr Ackerman barely give us vacation...
Y/N
Y/N
He should.
Eren
Eren
He will never give it to us.
Eren
Eren
We beg him once and he only got more annoyed.
Eren
Eren
So less possible chances now.
Y/N
Y/N
Maybe he can this year?
Eren
Eren
Never.
Eren
Eren
We should go. I don’t want our boss seeing us standing here.
Y/N
Y/N
You’re right.
We both walk back to our offices.
Along the way, I asked Eren.
Y/N
Y/N
I heard Levi speaking Spanish on a phone call.
Eren
Eren
Oh yeah, he knows Spanish and French.
Y/N
Y/N
Really? Woah.
Y/N
Y/N
He communicates with other companies in different countries?
Eren
Eren
I don’t know, perhaps.
Y/N
Y/N
He look stress though.
Eren
Eren
He is always on edge.
Eren
Eren
Sometimes he isn’t here for a week. He goes to meetings and flights to other states too.
Y/N
Y/N
Wow. He is a busy man.
Eren
Eren
He is.
Eren
Eren
But he is selfish.
Eren
Eren
He only thinks about the company....not the employments.
Eren
Eren
Sometimes I want to punch him where it hurts the most.
Y/N
Y/N
That bad?
Eren
Eren
No but yes.
He whispered to me as we made our way back in the offices.
20 minutes before lunch, I saw Ackerman coming inside the offices as everyone grew quit. I watch him go inside the copy room again. I went back to work and look over to see him approaching me.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Here.
He said and hand me my SSN card back. He placed it on my desk. Then left after.
I watched him go. My eyes followed him and stayed silent after.
During lunch time, I said,
Y/N
Y/N
I’ll be there guys! Just let me do something really quick.
Armin
Armin
We’ll wait for you.
Armin said as he smile at me.
I watched them leave and I quickly I finish the last thing I need it to do.
I decided to use the restroom first, bringing my bag with me and when I came back I heard something in the offices. So I lean against a wall.
Samantha
Samantha
Look at me, Levi.
She calls him by his first name?
Is she even allow that?!
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Call me Mr. Ackerman.
Samantha
Samantha
Why not Levi anymore?
Samantha gripping on her clipboard.
Glaring at the man.
Samantha
Samantha
You are pushing me away...again!
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
I don’t want to have this discussion.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
We can do it more privately.
Samantha
Samantha
No! I’m tired. You always push it aside every time I mention it when we are alone.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
...
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
I’m a busy man, what do you expect?
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
I’ll be the one talking to you first.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Be patient, Miss Stocking.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Unless you want me to find another assistant to replace you.
Samantha
Samantha
I-
Samantha
Samantha
....sorry Levi.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman...I don’t want you saying my first name.
Samantha
Samantha
Why...?
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Not when we’re in public. I thought I already mention this.
Samantha
Samantha
...fine.
Samantha
Samantha
But this conversation isn’t over.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Go and eat.
Samantha
Samantha
I was thinking we can eat together in your office.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Not today. I had a call earlier so I must settle this.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
I won’t be eating my lunch so go on without me.
Samantha
Samantha
Yes, Mr. Ackerman.
Samantha voice weakness and left the offices room to go back to her own office.
I saw Mr Ackerman leave the empty offices to the elevator and watch him click buttons and took his phone as the door finally close.
I sighed.
What did you I just witness?
***
When it was time to go home, I pack everything and even clock out by now.
I was about to go out and talk to Armin if I could go and eat with them this time.
But unfortunately Mr. Ackerman came to me, handing me files.
Y/N
Y/N
...
I just look at the files then back at Ackerman.
Armin
Armin
U-um, we will wait for you outside!
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
No, she isn’t going anywhere.
Armin
Armin
...oh! Understood. H-Have a goodnight y/n!
Y/N
Y/N
Goodnight.
I watch them leave. Dang. I really wanted to eat with them! Also, forgot to give the jacket back to Mikasa!
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Take the damn files from my hands.
Y/N
Y/N
S-Sorry.
I grabbed them and placed it down.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
I have a job for you. When you get home, I want you to start working on this.
Y/N
Y/N
All of this?
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
No, I don’t expect you to finish them all. Just when you get back home every time.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
I do want this files done by Friday.
Y/N
Y/N
...understood Mr. Ackerman.
I put those files in my bag and got up.
Y/N
Y/N
Excuse me, Mr Ackerman.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Miss (last name), allow me to take you home.
Y/N
Y/N
...wait what?
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
You take the train, don’t you?
Y/N
Y/N
Well, yes. I mostly been.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
New York isn’t complete safe when it come taking the trains at night.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Let me help you once.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Can you at least appreciate it that?
Y/N
Y/N
Yes Mr. Ackerman.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Perfect.
Mr. Ackerman
Mr. Ackerman
Give me 15 minutes.
I nod.
With that, I watch him go.
This man...is about to take me home?!
I can already see him judge where I live....is it going to be an awkward drive?
Who knows but my stomach is twisting up already.
