6 Regret 2.

Alicia arrives at the doorstep of her house.She enters the house and takes a long look at her mother who is working in the kitchen.She slowly tip toe to her mother and hugs her from behind." You were right mom,I would definitely get a better job elsewhere``.She said hugging her even more.Mrs. Jones understood what was going on. She stops what she is doing and hugs Alicia, gently massaging her long hair. " Everything will be fine". She muttered.

" I love you mom," Alicia said." I love you too my dear". Her mother replied. Alicia went upstairs to her room.

Edwin is still in shock of what he heard. He recalls how much he has insulted Alicia. What he did today was out of line, he insulted her mother too! He does not even have the right to ask for forgiveness.He gives a deep sigh and uses his hands to cover his face in disgrace.

Damien enters Edwins office and informs him there is a business meeting out of town.They both leave right away.

Alicia tries to cheer up by playing a video game with her mom.It lasted for hours and they slept off. 

Edwin is unable to pay attention in the meeting.He cant stop thinking terrible Alicia must have felt when he enjoyingly humiliates her.After the meeting Damien questioned him.

" What is wrong with you Edwin? You seem quite off during the meeting.Are you feeling bad for what you have done to Alicia? Edwin nods in approval." Then go and apologize to her and her family and bring her back to the company.Just a word of advice." Damien said and they both went to the airport to go back home.

In the night,Bethany visits Alicia at her house.Alicia explains her predicament to her." What about Damien? " Bethany asked.

" He doesn't know i quite the job but he should be aware by now." Alicia replied.

" As far as i know Damien,he won't let this go easily.Am sure he will bring Your boss to his senses." Bethany said." I don't even care anymore,i won't be going back to that place again" Alicia sternly says.

Mrs. Jones calls Alicia and Bethany downstairs and to their surprise,Damien comes to visit them.
