Mr. Brunnie sat at the other width of the table while Kelly sat at the other end. The study room is an extension of Mr. Brunnie's bedroom. It had a bookshelf three inches tall. The bookshelf was filled with books arranged very orderly. The maid that did the arrangements for the bookshelf had put a lot of effort into it. The table around which Kelly and Mr. Brunnie sat had an opened laptop with its screen facing Mr. Brunnie. Kelly gazed across the table and discovered that there wasn't any file on the table. Meaning there is no file to be analyzed. "But where are the files Mrs. Charlie said I should help you with?" Kelly muttered. She had viciously looked around trying to see if the files were hidden, but all she could see was the green table lamp lying close to her right elbow."You mean manual files?" Mr. Brunnie asked "Yeah! Manual files. I didn't see any""Here" he stretched out an iPad to Kelly " that's where the files are" Kelly in turn took the iPad from him and placed i
The mirror collapsed into two halves exposing its interior. The interior was the opening in the wall that Kelly was previously searching for. In the interior laid the safe where the diamond was kept.Kelly was surprised at her discovery. She stook two steps backwards trying to recover from the shock. Her heart almost jumped out from it's chambers. She thought she had broken the mirror by accident. Whatever, she found the diamond anyways.Kelly peeped into the interior of the mirror and found a glass safe in which the diamond could be seen through the safe.That was what she was looking for. If not for the discovery of the "door in disguise", she wouldn't have thought that such a door existed in Mr. Brunnie's room."Now that I have seen what I crave for, what should I do next" Kelly asked herself. "Should I take the diamond? But what if there's a security device in the mirror or on the safe" she continued. She was troubled as to what to do"Whatever, this was why I came here in the fi
"Things more important than food?" He asked without diverting his gaze from his meal. He dipped his spoon into the teacup he held in his right hand. Mr. Brunnie gently stir the tea contained in the cup. He lifted the lip of the cup in his mouth. While his eyes observed Kelly who had torn out a piece of bread and rolled it in her mouth."It's nothing" Kelly answered."And how was your night?" "It was fine. You changed my clothing didn't you?" Kelly confronted him"Uh, yeah I think so" "You did?" Kelly banged the table "how much did you see, like how much of my body did you see""I, uh, there's nothing new to see" Mr. Brunnie and sipped his tea "I had already seen you before," he said avoiding eye contact with herKelly felt embarrassed. She couldn't hide her shame that she covered her face with her hands."You are so shameless" Kelly accused"What did I do wrong? I even did well caring for you and helping you change your dress while you slept like a log of wood without knowing what
Zoe glanced at Mr. Tony dumbfounded, she couldn't give a response to his accusations. Of course, the allegations were true, she had had a crush on Mr. Brunnie after saving his life in a car accident that was supposed to kill him. She couldn't resist not helping him as he was the most handsome person she had ever seenMr. Tony dropped his glass on the grey small stool close to him and stood up from the sofa he sat on and gallantly walked up to Zoe who had been standing in front of him - a few meters away"You think I don't know, don't you?" Mr. Tony said romancing her cheeks and looking straight into her eyes. He moved his hand downwards bracing down her hips until his hands reached her waist and he pulled her closer to himself.Zoe couldn't move her body or jerk him away from her. She was too scared to make him annoyed because Mr. Tony was capable of wasting her life if she frigged up. As he pulled her closer to himself, Zoe felt her heart freeze as his direful eyes stared at her, li
As soon as Kelly got to the hospital she burst through the hospital doors and rushed down the hallway to her brother's room in the children's ward with the cake and comic present she had gotten for him.As she approached, she could see the worry etched on the faces of the doctors and nurses surrounding him. Her heart pounding in her chest, she pushed her way through the crowd and came to a stop at the foot of the bed.She could see her mom seating next to her dear brother, lying motionless, hooked up to a plethora of machines and monitors. The sight was overwhelming, and Kelly could feel her eyes welling up with tears. She took a deep breath and slowly walked to the side of the bed, dropping the items she was carrying on the locker next to her brother's bedside.As she stood there, Kelly could read the panic written all over her mom's face. She knew her mom would be in pain."Kelly you are here?" Her mom had just noticed her presence."Mom, are you crying?" Kelly queried as she saw wh
"I'm very sorry Tony I can't make it to the reunion, there was an emergency from home that I had to attend to" Kelly calmly spoke over the phone."Where I am?" "I'm at the General hospital, my brother is unconscious and is at the hospital""You are coming?" Kelly asked surprised, she didn't expect that response from Mr. Tony"Oh alright, I'm at the children's ward" Kelly informed and then ended the call.She retired to seating by Dan's bedside right next to her Mom.A few minutes later, Mr. Tony arrived at the hospital."Good afternoon ma," Mr. Tony greeted Kelly's mom politely, with his back bent in a bow"Good afternoon young man" "Oh, mom meet Mr. Tony. My former mate in the uni" Kelly jolted from where she sat and stood next to Mr. Tony, introducing him to her mom"Nice meeting you sir, how have you been doing?" Her mom questioned"I been doing pretty fine ma" Mr. Tony answered"Mom, I'll be right back. Just a few minutes" Kelly announced and pulled Mr. Tony by his right hand aw
The next day, before leaving for the office, Kelly branched at the hospital and checked on her brother and her mom. She also left them with the flask containing the food she had earlier prepared. Then, she left for the office.Kelly carried on with her day's work, she had to remain strong by all means. Mrs. Kim had earlier gone out to attend a meeting, which means Kelly could work without pressure or getting frustrated, except that Mrs. Jean, the manager took the absence of Mrs. Kim at the office to pick on Kelly. But Kelly took no offense in her actions as she understood that Mrs. Jean was acting as such due to jealousy.As soon as she left the office in the evening, she headed straight to the hospital. By the time she got to the hospital, Natasha had arrived there before her and she noticed that the atmosphere at her brother's ward had changed. It was no longer tense contrasting how it was before now as no one knew the fate of the child lying helplessly on the bed, neither was the
The next day was on a Friday, the last working day of the week. The chairman of Kelly's department in the office had called for a meeting with all the designers in his department including Kelly.They were all expected to submit their proposed design for the president's daughter's jewelry. Unfortunately for Kelly, she was the only one who was yet to complete her jewelry design. Everyone else began submitting samples of their designs. Though most of them were rejected due to one mistake or the other or because the chairman felt the design wasn't suitable for the president's daughter.Soon it was Kelly's turn to submit her design. She had no excuse whatsoever, "Sir, I haven't completed my design yet" Kelly informed. She was standing at the conference table, while others were sitting and staring at her. Kelly's head was down in submission as she knew that the chairman of her department might scold her or even embarrass her in the presence of everyone. He has a very bad mouth and his wor
