By taxi

You get out of your apartament building and try to catch a taxi, but there are few other people. Finally, a taxi stops and you jump inside, but before you can close the door a man holds it open.

"Hey, cutie, you wouldn't mind if we shared a taxi, would you?"

He doesn't wait for your answer and already sits next to you when you're just opening your mouth. "N-no..." You say quietly, already cursing yourself for it. Of course you do mind it. You're late for work! You just reacted instinctively, like good girl should. Good girl? You blush at the sound of that. Well-mannered of course, you meant well-mannered.

Before you can protest, the rude man gives the driver his destination - in a direction completely opposite to yours. You clench your teeth but say nothing, even when he casually puts his hand on your knee. You just wish this ride to end... When he leaves the cab he tosses his card at you. "Call me." He says.

You spend the rest of the ride in silence, irritated and thrown off of your game. You clearly showed a lack of confidence there... And you can't do the same at the meeting with client for which you're already late.

When yo get to mr Alexander's office you're 30 minutes late. You almost run by his secretary and open the door, already apologizing.
