Love Me, My Omega! Chapter 87

Today is Monday.

I start my day by getting my kids prepared for school. I cook breakfast, do the bed, help them shower, get them dressed, have them eat, and let them brush their teeth. After our morning routine, I’d bring them to school and then head to my workplace.

I’m your not-so-typical office worker.

I move from company to company because I get fired quite frequently because of my irregular heat cycle. Being a recessive omega who doesn’t have an alpha, it’s a given that no matter how much I pay hospitals just to make my cycles become normal, it still wouldn’t work because I’m recessive.

Sometimes, I have to skip work twice a month because of my irregular cycle, and it troubles my colleagues which resulted to me getting fired a lot.

Of course, all my absences affects how I’d land a job after I get fired.

After I gave birth to my adorable twins, I went back to college but not in my former university. I studied at some unknown university for the last year of my course.

My brother used to babysit my children while I go to school, and my parents helped me provide for their needs. I can’t even put it into words how thankful I am to them.

A year ago, my parents decided to live in the countryside and surprisingly, my brother went with them. He said he wanted to come with them so he could take care of them.

As for me, of course, they asked me to bring my children and come live with them in the countryside, but my degree wouldn’t be of use once I move with them.

I was already working at the time, so I assured them that I’d be able to provide for the twins and that they don’t have anything to worry about anything.

After they left, I moved back to the city where… to the city where I used to live before.

The pay in that city was 20% higher and the job opporunities were great. To provide for my twins’ daily needs, I had to go back there and make a living.

For a year, I’ve never bumped into someone I knew before. This city is so big that I’d find it weird if I were to come across someone I know.

I admit it. It was hard. It was hard trying to take care of their needs every day while I was working, so I had them go to school so there would be someone who could look after them. I thought that would be better than paying for a babysitter, because if they go to preschool, not only will they learn things, but they’d also get to interact and know children around their age.

Well, I can’t deny the fact that I sometimes call for a babysitter to fetch them from school. There are times when I couldn’t leave early and go overtime at work, so I’d call a trusted babysitter to look after them for a bit.

Right now, I may be struggling quite a bit in taking care of them, but I always do my best to get off work early and fetch them on time. Also from what I know, my new job pays quite well, and I could even get to work early because it’s not much of a hassle compared to where I used to work before. The also company gives omegas a paid leave whenever they’re in heat, whether they’re recessive or not, which makes me feel relieved. I may not get fired early this time.

I actually find it quite weird that it’s a bit more stress-free than my previous job, considering the fact that it’s a company under a very big conglomerate.

But I guess it makes sense if I think that they treat their employees better because they’re a big company. They could hire a lot of people compared to my previous workplace that was a hundred… no, a thousand times smaller than this company.

I looked up at the tall building in front of me. Just looking at it makes me wonder who’s on the very top of this company… of the conglomerate. They must be overflowing with money by now.

I took a few deep breaths to calm myself as my grip on the bag that was hung on my shoulder tightened.

“Hooo… This is my first day. I have to do great. I got this…” I muttered to myself and bit my lower lip, feeling nervous.

8:40 a.m.

I’m 20 minutes early.

I went inside the building as I held onto my bag’s strap tightly.

As I walked in, I couldn’t help but look around.

This isn’t the first time that I’ve ever been here, but now that I’m seeing the interior again, I can’t help but feel so amazed.

The moment you step inside, the interior of the building makes you feel like you’re at a 5-star hotel.

The interior was simple, yet fancy. The color of the walls was ivory, and the lights set the mood of the building to make it look fancy. Looking at the things that are inside, one can tell that those are expensive.

“How did I even manage to get hired in here…?” I whispered to myself as I looked around.

I shook my head and bit my lower lip.

No… I should be focusing on my task right now instead of gawking at the interior design of the building.

I headed to the elevator and waited for it to open with the other employees.

“Do you know why I always come here around this time?” I overheard an employee talk to another. “Ah, I know!” The employee chuckled.

I stopped myself from glancing at them because it might seem like I’m eavesdropping. Well, I am, but their voices are loud. Of course, I can’t help but hear their conversation.

Also, it would be great if I’d get to know what’s happening inside the company.

“Of course, you do. This is literally our conversation almost every morning,” the employee chuckled. “Ugh, really… I hate that demon with every fiber in my body. If this company doesn’t have a high pay, I would have submitted my resignation letter a few days after I got this job,” he sighed.

Hmm? Demon?

“I know, right! When he still wasn’t in his position right now, he’d suddenly visit different departments and nitpick on every little thing, ugh!” The other employee grunted.

I could almost imagine their frowning faces as they talked about this so-called-demon.

Just who is this person?

“Thank goodness, he’s very busy nowadays,” the employee chuckled.

“Ting!”

They stopped talking, and the elevator doors opened. I went inside together with the others and purposely stood next to those employees who were talking earlier to get some more information from them.

Unfortunately, the whole time I was on the elevator, they didn’t talk to each other. I had already gotten off, and I haven’t even heard a single squeak from them.

When I got to the department I’m going to work in, nobody even bothered to glance at me. Working hours hasn’t even started yet, but they’ve already started working.

“Oh… Good morning, newbie.”

I looked at my side where the voice came from and saw a tall man who had his black hair styled into quiff. He has thick eyebrows, deep set of brown eyes, pink lips, and chiseled jaw.

“I don’t think I’ve introduced myself properly when I hired you,” he smiled. He took a step closer towards me and extended his arm. “I’m Mark Smith, the finance department manager,” he said as he stretched his arm even more for a handshake.

I took his hand and shook it as I lowered my head a little. “I’m Justin Alvarez,” I introduced myself. “Yeah, I know,” he chuckled.

“Now, enough of the small talk. I’ll explain to you what you’re going to do. You’re well aware of what you’re job is, right? Of course, you are. After all, you applied for this job and got accepted,” he said and shrugged. “Let’s head to your table. Follow me. I’ll explain as we walk,” he said and started walking.

“You’ve got plenty of experience when it comes to this. For someone who gets fired a lot, you still get accepted in companies. That alone is impressive, Mr. Alvarez. From what I remember, you’re an omega, and that’s probably the reason why you often get fired. Seeing how companies accept you even after knowing about your circumstances, it must be because you’re good at your job. Now that you’re here, you’ll be working here a long time unless you quit or get fired for something else that’s not related to your second gender,” he said as we walked to my table.

“This is your table, and this is where you will be working from now on. As I’ve said before, you’re well aware of your job and you also have a lot of experience regarding this type of work. The job will be the same as your job from other companies, but you won’t be given a lot of tasks for now since you just got hired. You’ll probably start doing actual work by next week,” he said as he put his hand on the table.

“If you have any questions, you can ask me right now. If you don’t have some as of the moment and will have some later, you can ask Miss Hannah, the beautiful lady next to your table,” he said as he looked at the person who was next to my table. “Oh my…” Miss Hannah chuckled from what Sir Smith said. “Well? Do you have any?” He said as he looked at me and raised his brow.

“None, sir,” I said as I smiled a little. “Alright. Have a great day, Mr. Alvarez,” he said as he smiled at me.

Judging from the way he spoke to me, I can tell that he’s great at his job. He’s also confident, and his leadership shows from the way he brings himself and how he interacts with his employees.

“You too, sir,” I replied.

I guess I basically won the lottery when I got this job.
