1 The Venue

July 6th, 2020

On a fine afternoon, Chicago Thalia Hall is surrounded by so many people & is being turned into a venue for a great piano concert which is going to happen there that night. The stage designers & the other workers on the background are working very hard to make the stage arrangements as perfect & mesmerizing as possible for the VIP & other ordinary audiences who were going to attend & enjoy the performance that night.

Meanwhile, in the dressing room, the great pianist Alexander Wilbert, who was going to perform as the lead pianist of the show that night had gone high on excess alcohol & narcotics which transformed him into a living monster & ended up in a huge mess. Over the effect of drugs & alcohol, Alexander had gone to that extent in which he was even unable to recognize his subordinates & manager who worked day & night with him during his concert days & throughout his music journey.

And, Alexander who was sunk in the depth of those drugs & alcohol & was acting neither less than a crazy person. For that moment watching all those activities, his manager Stacy tried to make him stop taking that harmful stuff anymore before the event. Those action of restrictionary behaviour from Stacy annoyed Alexander pretty much in a high scale & at that moment without proper consciousness, Alexander threw up a tantrum over Stacy & started to attack Stacy with the make-up properties & other stuff which were kept over his dressing table. In that fight, Alexander abused & constantly beat up Stacy knocking her over the ground without any mercy. And because of the constantly hit she had to face from Alexander, Stacy shouted out for help lying over the floor with her left out strength.

Stacy: Help! Help! Someone, please help me!

While she was being beaten up & shouting for help in the dressing room, at a few distances away from the room some workers who were working & setting up the lights heard her. As the workers heard the woman's wailing they all ran swiftly & smashed opened the door for rescuing her. When they opened the door the scene they all witnessed there was so brutal. Alexander's manager Stacy was lying over the floor spitting out blood from her mouth & she was been kicked again & again over the gut area. When the workers saw that some of them ran towards Alexander & held him from behind & pulled him to the other side of the room then the other workers took Stacy & made her rest over the couch & one of the eldest workers within them asked Stacy in a kind & soft manner looking at her.

Elder Worker: You poor thing! Are you okay? Does it hurt much?

Stacy: It pains a little!

Elder Worker: You must go to the hospital & have a proper checkup.

Stacy: No need!

Elder Worker: You must go my child other you may end up with complications in the future.

Stacy: Okay, I'll. But before I must give Sir Alexander some tablets prescribed by his physician.

Elder Worker: Why are you worried about that prick after all these kind of behaviour?

Stacy: Anyway, it's my job sir.

Stacy then takes out some tissues which were kept on the table next to the couch & clean up the blood which was coming out of her mouth. She then stood up from the couch where the workers put her to rest, from there she went inside the other room for taking out the medicines for Alexander Wilbert. As on the other side, the pianist was bluffing out unconsciously in the hangover of the drugs & alcohol. After some moments later she came out with a small medicinal jar & she kept it over the table from where she took the tissues. Then she said loudly to the pianist who was in the half-consciousness.

Stacy: Sir, you should take these medicines before the concert okay in this there are two kinds of capsules & one is hangover capsules & the other are the vitamin supplements which you take regularly.

Elder Worker: I feel sorry for you my child. May Lord help you to endure it.

Stacy: Yes, uncle! Lord will help me. Anyway, I should inform our company CEO about this crisis.

Elder Worker: I don't understand! How are you so optimistic in this situation also?

Stacy: When an ill brother is waiting alone in a house for you to bring bread to eat. Anyone will become optimistic automatically because without that vision there is no other way to live.

Then Stacy picks up her handbag & takes out the mobile to have a talk with the CEO about the current situation which had happened there in the dressing room of Thalia Hall. Stacy reports all kind of acts which took over the scene to her CEO & takes permission to leave from the spot to visit the hospital as per the company guidelines for all employees working there at the Music Label Company. After the call with CEO Stacy walks again towards the old man & says.

Stacy: Thanks for helping me, uncle.

Elder Worker: It's okay. You should go to the hospital now!

Stacy: Okay, uncle! I'm going there only I have taken permission from the CEO while I was talking with him.
