A Game of Tag(5)

I sat on the bed, expressionlessly recalling what had happened last night. I hated that I didn't just black out after drinking and lose the memory of what had happened.
My phone rang, and I nearly jumped from the bed.
The caller ID displayed: [Kenneth.]
I struggled between the dilemma where "answering the phone might kill me" and "not answering the phone would surely kill me." At last, I accepted the call.
"Are you awake?" Kenneth's lazy voice was particularly charming in the morning. "Check the work group chat since you're awake."
Since it was almost the new year, an annual meeting was held at the headquarters in Bloudence before the new year. This time, Kenneth decided to take me to gain experience because of the proposal.
I arrived at the company feeling refreshed.
That was fake. I actually sneaked into the company again.
