long time friend
Ring * Ring?*
"Hello, who I'm I speaking with "Annalisa asked , while walking on the long hall.
"Oh my God Anna it's me , Betty " A girlish voice screamed in excitement.
"Betty"? she raised her brows in confusion , then stopped immediately with her eyes wide opened" oh goodness Betty is this really you , o my god, wait ... wait " She checked the number and found out it's an international number "Is this your number where the hell have you been " She asked excitedly .
"No where in particular, I just travel around you know fun stuff ",Betty laughed.
" It's not funny , so tell me , where are you now .. I mean the country ".
" I'm living in Korea now with my boyfriend ".
Anna almost fainted out of surprise
" You're lying !!"she screamed .
"Why should I lie about something like that " Betty asked in confusion.
"This is .. o my god I'm so happy for you , "She sigh
" I knew you would be happy that's why I have a surprise coming ".
" What is it ".
" A surprise I said "Betty giggles
" I'm sure that surprise is gonna be unpleasant"She shook her head, and walk to the cafeteria and bought a coffee .
" If you say so , I got to go now see ya"she cut the call .
'See ya'? she thought.
Betty owell and Annalisa were friends from childhood they once lived in Nigeria , before Betty got a scholarship and went to music school . while Annalisa on the other hand wasn't able to get a proper education .
She walked out from the building and board a taxi home , on getting there she found out that her mum wasn't at home . She entered her room took out her laptop , and posted on her website.
" If you need an actress in any participation or a local singer .click on this email at ****.com" she sigh and closed the laptop . she walked to the bath room and took her shower before jumping on the bed tiredly .
Mean while a car have been tracking her until she entered the worn out building , the figure in the car wore a black cloak so his face could not be seen he dailed a number " it's a success ".
" Very good"A female answered the call and hung up. Then the car drove away .
Few hours later.
Anna woke up due to the aroma entering her nose , she blinked her eyes in confusion , she yawned and move out from her bed , she opened her room door and went to the kitchen where she met her mum done cooking.
"Mum you're back " she walked over to her , and hugged her .
"Yeah, I am , how are you feeling" her mum turned and touched her fore head .
"better"
"mm. here are your dinner , go eat upstairs"".
" On it"She left her mum and entered her room, she ate her food , returned the plate , chatted with her mum a little and returned to her bed .
Tomorrow is another day.
Tomorrow came quickly and Anna found herself in an office ... Yesterday she got a call that her interview was a success so she was asked to start the next day , and her monthly pay was $50,000 that was huge amount that she can't get in a year .
She jolted out from her thought when a young man entered the room with a file .
"Good morning sire" She bowed a Little.
"Morning Annalisa right "?The man asked
"Correct sire " she smiled .
"mm , I think you know the reason why you are here " The man asked again .
She looked at him confused , how won't she know why she was here , off cause to work as a part time messenger and assistant to the CEO .
"Yes sire , or is there anything thing I'm lacking behind sire?" .
"Not much is needed for you to know , all I have to say is read this paper and decide yourself what to do before I can explain " he handed over the file to her . She took the file and what first came into her view was.
"Temporary Contract "
She raised her head at the man , then returned back to the file.. it state that she will serve the CEO for A year and half, she will assist him in 'things' no matter what , and if she escaped or do anything foolish there will be an unknown punishment.
She frowned and stare at the man, 'what kind of childish play is this ' she shook her head and gave the contract back to him.
"So what do you think " the man asked .
"I'm sorry sire but I'm not interested" she answered .
Lucas nodded his head and his eyes sized her up "As expected , I knew you won't accept such childish thing . congratulations of not being controlled by money " Lucas laughed and turn to leave when.....
"Sire please wait , what do you mean by congratulations" she asked.
He stopped and turned around " You will know about it later "with that said he left her there.
" what ... this man is weird"she sigh and walked out from the building.
Today was her day of work and she must not mess up or make trouble , she walked to the secretary on the fourth floor and meant a young boy attending to people . she waited for her turn. Few minutes later she met the boy .
"Hello I'm Raymond camilo , how may I help you " Raymond smiled at her .
"Nothing much , I just want to know the place I can start my work" she waved her hands .
"oh, are you a new employee cause I haven't seen you here before " he asked.
"Yes , I am " she answered shyly .
he shook his head and raised his laptop "We have different department here, the first floor is for the entry process , the second floor is for the interview, and the third floor is for the cleaners ,the fourth floor is for the stock and goods ... " Ray explained while Anna nods her head in response.
few minutes later ...
" do you understand now? ", he asked
" mmmn yes thank you " , she sigh and opened her phone
*Where are you the CEO have been waiting *she saw this text message and frowned.
" What does he mean by that "she blinked her eyes in confusion .
" is anything the problem miss"Ray asked,
" No no thank you . bye" she quickly ran away from there not bothering to hear his reply .
*Ring
" hello Anna where are you , are you really serious with this job . can you believe sire have been waiting for you "Lucas shouted angrily at her .
" I'm I'm sorry sire I didn't know that it was the CEO I have to ... "she tried explaining her flaw , when she unfortunately fell on the floor .
" Ahh ahh shhhh"
" Are you okay ? "Lucas paused
" Yes I am , I will call you later sire"
"Do you-"
she ended the call and continued running , then stopped .
She looked confused, she look left and right and took out her phone again .
*Ring
"Yes w-"
"Sire I'm so sorry but what is the room number " she asked innocently
"Are you dumb girl come down to the elevator ... press no 62 the last stairs " Lucas sigh I'm frustration
"Sorry so sorry " she quickly did as he said and arrived at a door , she opened it and found it really neat .
There she saw Lucas discussing with someone, she looked at the figure and gasp ..
