1 I Pity You

"Havana Ooh na-na. Half of my heart is in Havana Ooh na-na. Hmmm."

Such a beautiful song. How could my boss, Nickel, not like it?

"Would you shut up, Jini!?" Uh. Here he is again. He is such a nuisance. Always shouts at me. I am poor but that doesn't mean that you would shout at me at everything.

"Fine I'll shut up."

"Oh! Thank you so much for your kind words, Miss Jini. Now do your work."

Of course I'll do my work. I was just wondering, you go to hell.

Oh! In case you don't know me, I am Jini. I work here, at the Peaceful Destination as a maid. Well. My story is a real bad one. My father got killed and my mom was murdered. Same thing though. And my sister is in coma in hospital. She got hurt in the head. 19 years earlier, all this happened. I was one year old at that time. My sister was 10. Uh! Sad fate.

Just then, intruding my thoughts came, Ann, my best friend. "Jini. Is that you?" She said. "Don't you know?" She continued"CEO is calling for you!"

"What!? What happened? Boss said something to the CEO, didn't he? That little piece of.....!"

"Shhhh! Nothing happened. Okay! You are new to the area so he called for you to ask of what you think of the place."

Oh. Is that so?

"Are you sure that you are not saying that to calm me down. Cause if you are then I'll kill you!"

"Hey! You can't kill me, you'll go to jail then! And I can't see that you know."

"You.."

"Relax sweetheart. Nothing is happening. You are such a drama queen! Go now."

ON MY WAY:

Calm down. Calm down. It's just the CEO.

I knocked on the door. Then opened it.

"M-Mr CEO?"

"Come in" A cold voice called inside of the room, seated across the table, staring out the window.

I entered. "You called for me."

"What do you think of the place?" He asked.

Well. Very bad.

"Really good, Mr CEO. It's nice to have someone to talk to here. And I have so many people around me. I feel a sense of security."

SECURITY!?!? Really? Why in the world did I say that?? I mean I feel safe here but still.

"What do you think of me?" He asked, as if to achieve something, but what?

"What do you... mean by that? I can't understand..." I said.

"Not everyone does. Not everyone has to. So, what do you think of me?" He asked eagerly.

"Well. I pity you."

"You what!?" He looked at me raising an eyebrow. His attractive face, now looking at me with his deep blue ocean like wavering eyes. And his bangs covering some parts of his eyes and forehead making him all the way more handsome.

"After all I have, I am a billionaire. I have everything I need. And all I hear from a lowly class like you is that you pity me!? For what?"

I could see the anger fuming inside his eyes.

But as I was about to answer him, someone came inside, panting.

"Ann!?"

"Your sister.... hospital.... accident....GO!!"

Sister, hospital, accident. "NO!!" From all the words I could make out, I ran leaving the dumbfounded CEO and my friend Ann staring at my back.
