Amelia's Impression to the Company Town

A yawn escaped from Amelia's lips as she woke up and looked around the room that was not her own. The familiar sight of the plain furnishings around her caused her to let out another sigh. She just remembered taking a job as a secretary at Axelsen & Nielsen Air Brake Company.

Speaking of the company, Amelia saw the two founders sleeping on the same bed with their limbs sprawled over them while snoring loudly. She found it cute and innocent, to think that the owner of a rising company would sleep in such a position. Not that she's making fun of them or anything. She knew that she was the reason why they are sharing the same bed. If not for her existence in this company, they would have slept on their respective beds. 

She rose from the bed she was sitting on and went to the door while rubbing her eyes groggily. The first thing to do as secretary is to prepare for the day, which means taking care of the needs of her superior.
