CEO MEETS HER

Goals. Goals motivate us to aim at our dreams and make it into reality. It pushes us not to daydream. I know we all have goals. Some of you wish to travel the entire world, some of you just want a simple life, some of you need to be married at 26 etc... But mine's different from yours. Mine's to pay off the debts of my aunt. And to LIVE MY OWN DAMN LIFE. I am Heather Russell. 23 years of age. I do a lot of part-time jobs. According to my Aunt Rita, my parents abandoned me at the age of three. And to make my life more miserable, my aunt does not love me. She loathes me. That's a fact. “Heather!!! Where you!?” I went downstairs and saw my aunt Rita sitting on the kitchen table swinging her legs and holding a bottle of beer. “Aunt Rita. You're drunk. Let me help you in your room.” I said while walking towards her. Suddenly, she threw the bottle at me it hit my left arm. I winced. My reflexes were slow that I was not able to react. The bottle crashed and shattered on the floor. Shards

7am.My phone’s alarm rang. I want to snooze it, but my mind says no. “Another day to fight, Heather. Ugh.” I motivated myself, but my body feels heavy. Before leaving for duty, I left a note in the fridge saying, “Going to work. I'll be late. -Heather” even if my aunt does not care. I took a bus traveling to the workplace of Sophia. Around 0830H, I got a text from her saying, “Good morning, H! The deal's not off, right? He he I'll see you tonight!” I replied, “On the bus right now. Going to your workplace. Yep. Don't forget my burger.” Then I received $100 on my money app. I sighed, thinking about the bills and debts. “When will I be free?” I thought to myself. I shake off the negative thoughts I am having and just think of other things. After 20minutes, I have arrived. As alwa

Thursday. I was in my room finishing my draft when I heard my aunt Rita’s shouting and smashing things downstairs. “Heather!! Where are you?” I stopped writing and went downstairs. She’s having another tantrum. I don't like this. “Aunt Rita! Stop!” I shouted when I saw that she’s throwing and breaking the plates and glasses! “YOU! WHAT DID YOU SAY?!” “I said stop. You’re breaking everything. You can get hurt!” I moved towards her. “Don't even try to come near me! You’re a bad luck! If I had not accepted you in this family, I would not be miserable!!! You ruined everything!!! You’re like my dead brother!! Stupid and useless! I should have abandoned you in the street! He promised to — “then she cried and break more things. She stopped while holding a plate, and she's still crying a

His thoughts. I drove somewhere far from the office. Then, I saw this little café that seems quiet. I parked my car and went in the little café called “Coffee Bloom House”. As I entered, I could smell coffee. It smells so wonderful. The place is tiny, but the interior is desirable. “Good morning, sir! “I was greeted by a tall and blonde guy on the cashier. “Hi. One Americano, tall.  Thank you.” I looked on his nameplate. He’s called George. “That’s $2.50 sir.” I paid him the exact amount. “Thank you, for paying the exact amount. We’ll be serving your coffee in a moment. Please have a seat.” George smiled. I nodded at him once. While I searched around for a perfect spot, I saw a familiar face. Ah!

Her thoughts. I opened my eyes. My head is aching. I looked around. This is not my room. Wait, I know I was walking down the pedestrian, then there was a car — ugh, my head hurts. I breathe deeply. And told myself not to panic. You're okay, Heather. Relax. I'm in a gigantic room. Is this a hospital? My clothes are now different. It's kind of big, but warm. No one's here. Checked the time on the digital wall clock. It’s past six o’clock in the evening. I got up, whoa! I felt dizzy. Likewise, I noticed that my right elbow and right knee has plasters. Then, I tried looking for my things, the only that's familiar on that room was my purse on the table. It's wet. I opened the door, and I'm actually at the hospital. I rushed outside until I was out of the hospital. I feel super dizzy. I think I have a fever. I rode a taxicab and told him the flat address of Sophi
