CHAPTER 1
I was running extremely late for my last presentation this month. And what's more worst than getting late just before the day you get salary
With an already gagged up life, I still managed to come up when it's just two minutes left before the meeting starts
Velena Adler Alusia
Damn, lift please open!
Everyone is testing my patience today!
Ahh! What a shitty start of the day!
I was about to kick up the lift door, when it opened. Finally opened for god's sake, I only have one minute left
Velena Adler Alusia
Ouchtch!
I was just about to step in and my head bummed into a hard wall like thing
Velena Adler Alusia
*Looked up rubbing her head*
There it was. A Huge tower heightened buffed man stepped out. I tried to look at his face.. Apprently he wore a mask, I could only see the upper part of his face.
Sharp, edgy, emotionless.
He stood out with a tall, imposing figure, his head hung low down his shoulders
Velena Adler Alusia
What th-
He walked past me bumping his shoulders into mine without a single word. I looked straight- Only to realise I was slumped like a dumb staring at that man and was standing out the whole time.
Velena Adler Alusia
*Rushed inside the lift*
He was.. Wearing all black, covering his whole body and having a mask on his face.. I couldn't see him clearly..
I heard a loud voice calling me, taking me out of my thoughts
Velena Adler Alusia
Y-yes! What?
Bella Leroux
You're late again..
Bella was standing infront of me, she's always on time.. Unlike me, she has been my friend since highschool and to be accurate, she was the miss perfect.. Unlike me
Velena Adler Alusia
Still 5 seconds left!
Velena Adler Alusia
*Ran towards the meeting room*
~A while later, Meeting room~
I barely survived the meeting and finally it was done.
?? :- Miss Velena Adler Alusia.
I was just about to step out when our CEO called me. Please, let me go this last time.
Velena Adler Alusia
*Mentally cursing herself*
Logen Arthur Warren
You're late the seventh time this month.
Velena Adler Alusia
Uh- I'm extremely sorry sir, for my inconvenience, I promise to be on time from now on.
Logen Arthur Warren
In business, promises are just not a thing.
Logen Arthur Warren
This will be the last warning.
Velena Adler Alusia
Thank you sir! I won't disappoint you the next time!
Hope so.. I always try to be on time but some unexpected things just naturally comes my way to get me late.
~Lunch time, office cafeteria~
Kael Jones
You barely survived today!
*Surpassing a laugh*
My messed up life has always been a topic to laugh on as we sat on one of the tables with our lunch. With two of my colleagues accompanying me, and the only to I talk to the most
Bella Leroux
So, I guess you'll come 10 seconds ahead tomorrow to be on time?
Velena Adler Alusia
That's it. It's actually not funny. I try to be early but things just comes my way out of nowhere.. Like today, that man came out of nowhere, I was looking at him dumbfounded because h-
Grooving with flow, I just realised what I spat out.
Bella Leroux
Yes, yes, please continue.. About your crush, isn't it?
*Wiggling her eyebrows*
Velena Adler Alusia
It's actually worst. I couldn't see his face, nothing special but I just wanted to get a look. He looked new.
Kael Jones
How come you both are always high on this things..
Velena Adler Alusia
Because you have hormonal imbalance.
I tried to say with the straightest face ever.
Kael Jones
*Looked at her with a tight lip smile*
We were about to continue our talks when an announcement took our attention.
To see the Secretary of CEO stood at the door of cafeteria and announced :
Sephora Ellis
Hey guys, we've planned a party tomorrow, the whole office is gonna be there, everyone's invited!
Velena Adler Alusia
I'm in. I wanna get some fresh air and some sleek dose of alcohol.
It's been a while since I went out anywhere, work always gets me. I have a great chance to enjoy this once
Bella Leroux
Me three.
*She added*
