Evie

6:30 PM

Knock Knock

Ian - the assistant knocked and came in.

"Boss it's already 6:30 PM."

Evelyn looked up with her computer's reflection on her glasses.

"You can go now." She said while looking at the wall clock.

Ian nodded and silently closed the door.

Evie sighed, turning her alarm on her computer to 7:00 PM.

Afterwards she resumed working.

30 minutes later...

The alarm sounded out just as Evie saved her final report and had send it out to her email.

She turned off the alarm and prepared going home.

Just as she was about to leave her desk, a file caught her eyes.

"Isn't this the profile of the newbie? Ah, I got too focused into work that I forgot this."

She muttered to herself while grabbing the file hesitantly.

Although it is against her rules about as much as possible not taking her work home, she still grabbed it and took it home.

Driving her car, Evie looked out of the window to get some fresh air while stopping at the red light.

The fresh air somehow livened her up out of her tired face.

'I wonder when did I get to be a workaholic like this?'

She rolled down her window just as the traffic light turned green.

---------

When she was home, she tiredly strutted her way towards her bedroom.

She washed up before going to bed.

Somehow the water woke her up even more, so she got some books in her mini library to make her fall asleep.

Just then, she remembered the file she took home.

She opened the file and she saw a handsome man in a business suit in the picture clipped together in the file. But at that point, looks doesn't matter to our business minded Evie.

"Liam huh? A very professional individual and a promising man." She said while flipping out the page. Some praise where not mouthed as she looked at the credentials of the man. She go into serious thinking for a while and stared at the man before closing it. At that point, 'Liam' already made a good impression to Evie, well in terms of business.

She has this principle of her that separates business and personal life.

She placed the file neatly inside her case and picked up her books just then she noticed a notebook whose cover is hand painted with the flower of violets.

She picked it up and opened the notebook and saw on the first page were her scribbled writings.

A light smile hang on her lips as she reminisced her good youthful days.

When she was on the last page there were five numbers with five lists written on it.

She muttered to herself while she red those five steps.

" I really forgot the the third, fourth and last steps as no one has really ever got my attention to make them proceed much further. "

She laughed and closed the book, put it back in the shelf and proceeded to sleep.
