The Hitman’s Sunshine

Lily gulped, it's the 'devil'. She said in her mind with her hands still trembling. Raven picked the phone from the girl's hand, turning it off, he said, "You don't want to do that. Now run along and forget everything that happened here, little girl." His voice low and chilly to the bone. _ _ _ Sunshine Meets Grumpy He's a hitman, a hacker, a serpent slithering through the city's underbelly. Not a hero, not even close. The mafia's ghost in the machine, shadows his only companions. Then, there's her. Bookish, buried in debt and dreams, juggling endless shifts and late-night study sessions. Sunflower yellow amidst the grimy alleys, oblivious to the danger lurking beneath her hopeful smile. "Plain," they call her, "basic." But her light, it's undeniable. One fated night, a muttered curse, a stolen glance. Their worlds, oil and water, are destined to collide. Can sunshine melt the frost around a killer's heart? Or will their tangled destinies ignite a storm that consumes them both?

AWKWARD REUNION

[Music Recommendation: See What I've Become ~ Zack Hemsey]

After Maya finished her orientation, she was assigned to the office opposite the Manager's own. She shared this office with Emily and Gabriel, but since it was her first day, she was made to pack the files in the Manager's office and arrange them according to dates to make it easier when the man resumes.

She was buried in work when Emily rushed into the office, shouting her name.

"Maya, Maya. The Director is here!!" Emily shouted, the excitement on her face evident of the feelings she had for her Director.

Maya raised her head and sneezed due to the dust from the old files. When she rubbed her nose, she asked, "I thought you said he doesn't come to work every day? What happened?"

"I don't know, but there's news that the new manager decided to come in early, and it's today!" Emily exclaimed. "Maya, your boss is also resuming today." Emily checked her watch.
