FAZER LOGINTHEO"I'm so sorry. I didn't see anything... I was about to leave." I begged with a shaky voice as the hand gripping my shoulder tightened... "Please..."I didn't even know who I was begging. I had only come here because of work; I wasn't supposed to be anywhere near whatever was happening behind those boxes, but now I was trapped with no idea what would happen to me...then I heard footsteps approaching...slow and heavy, growing louder with every step as my heart began pounding when a familiar voice finally broke through the silence..."Who is the intruder?" That voice...No. It couldn't be...I swallowed hard and slowly turned my head..."Professor Adrian?" I raised my head slowly to see the boss's face properly then the hand on my shoulder tightened again...What was Professor Adrian doing here? This wasn't his office or the company...The place looked nothing like anywhere I would see him... and the men surrounding me certainly didn't look like employees...They looked danger
THEO"What was all that about? Was he watching me or something?" I wondered as I walked back toward my desk, still thinking about the strange way my boss had been acting...just because I talked to a girlI dropped into my chair and glanced at the design brief sitting beside my laptop..."And these designs have to be ready by tomorrow?" I muttered. "What exactly am I supposed to come up with by tomorrow?" I murmured to myself as I stared at the blank screen for several seconds before sighing.There was no point complaining about it. If I wanted to prove that I deserved the job, I had to get the work done....I opened the files I'd been given and started working through the design piece by piece. At first, everything looked impossible... Every idea I came up with seemed either too simple or completely different from what had been requested."Come on, Theo," I whispered. "Think."I sketched a few rough concepts, deleted them, then started again."This one is terrible...Okay...
THEOI didn't understand what could possibly be so important that he had to call me without any warning, and the urgency in his voice made me feel like I had done something wrong...had I messed something up or did someone probably lay a complain against me?My thoughts were spiralling all over and I couldn’t place a finger on one final thing that could have made him call me so urgently ...I stopped in front of his office door and took a deep breath.“Okay, Theo. Calm down.” I murmured to myself as I gently knocked on his office door...“Come in.” He answered almost immediately...I slowly opened the door and stepped inside.Adrian was sitting behind his desk, staring at his laptop...he didn't even bother to look up at me as I walked in...I stood there for a couple of minutes expecting him to state the reason of his urgency but still nothing from him...I instinctively clenched onto the door handle and decided to speak up... “Sir?” I murmured beneath my breath but there was still no repl
THEO“Traitor... He didn’t even think about talking his boss out of this decision he made” ...I looked back at Professor Adrian's closed office door...maybe I should go back in there...should I knock...maybe I should explain that he had clearly made a mistake...I just took one step toward the office then stopped.No...This was my first real job...I couldn't walk back in there five minutes after being hired and tell my boss I couldn't do it...that would probably be the fastest way to lose the job...I sighed as I dragged my chair from under the table where I was supposed to sit...“Okay, Theo.” I murmured as I straightened my shirt... “You can do this.” Although I said it with so much confidence, but I wasn't convincing to myself at the very least...I walked over to the table Malachi had arranged for me... a computer sat neatly in front of the chair, along with a notebook, a few pens and a small stack of documents.I pulled out the chair and sat down...stared at the computer for a cou
THEO I rushed towards the big door at the company when I finally got there...still trying to catch my breath...Today was officially my first day at work and Malachi had already called me twice at school reminding me not to be late...I quickly adjusted the strap of my bag and looked around the large reception area...Everyone were on their various laptops typing like their lives depended on it... “Wow” I murmured under my breath...Employees moved around quickly, carrying files and talking among themselves. I swallowed hard and headed toward the staircaseJust as I reached the first step, I heard a familiar voice behind me... “Theo.” I turned around immediately and Malachi was standing a few feet away.“Good evening Sir...” I greeted.“You're already heading upstairs?”“Yes, sir. I thought I was supposed to report upstairs.”“You are.” He nodded toward the stairs. “Come on. I'll show you your desk.”“Oh. Thank you, sir.” I said as I followed him upstairs quietly...for some reason... e
THEO“Theo?” I heard my name being called, but I didn't respond...I was lost in thought...thinking about what I had just witnessed in the dream...was it dejavu? What the heck was all that “Theo?...Theo!” I suddenly jolted awake...I blinked several times and looked around the cafeteria, completely disoriented...a girl standing beside my table stared at me with a worried expression...“Theo, are you okay?” She asked as I quickly sat up straighter before looking up at her...“Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.”She raised an eyebrow...“You don't look fine”“I said I'm fine.” I lashed out unintendedly...I could tell she was scared because she immediately took a small step back...“Okay… I was just asking.”“I’m truly sorry...I didn’t mean to shout at you...” I apologized as I rubbed my face and looked down at my empty plate.I couldn't believe what I had just dreamed about some minutes ago...Why the heck had I dreamed about Professor Adrian like that? It made absolutely no sense...“Nope. I'm not thi
