Scarlett

I was sitting in this office with everything one would need. Through its transparent glass, I could see almost everything that was happening. Just pressing the button next to me would send the secretary running inside.

This was something I've always wanted but kept sacrificing just to be with Daniel Cross. But now that I'm here I don't even feel his presence or crave to be around him.

I was on my computer scrolling down different designs for Mr. Gray's next meeting when a knock sounded on my door.

I looked up and asked the person to come in without asking who it was and then placed my focus back on the designs. The person walked in and then stood a few steps away from my desk.

“Good morning, Ms. Brown. I hope you're enjoying your first day," I heard Mr. Gray's voice say when I quickly looked up and was about to stand up, but he asked me to sit instead.

“No Sir, I can do that later. Would you like me to do something for you?” I asked, deep down, worried about what the disresp

    Daniel I made my way into the lounge where the investors were waiting and found my PA anxiously smiling. I could already tell something wasn't right just by looking at her face. Everyone stood up to welcome me and then took their seats. I looked around the place and it just seemed average. This was nothing like anything Scarlett used to arrange. I looked at my PA and then back at the person who was busy presenting. Everyone finished what they were saying before I stood up and was about to start when a cockroach fell out of my papers. “Oh my goodness, what was that?" everyone in the lounge said before I nervously smiled just to bury the shame, but it didn't work because more was coming. My PA quickly rushed to get it out of sight before I started. I began to read what was written in my speech, but the typing errors just made me stutter in some parts. It was as if it were written by someone who wasn't being paid enough. Time and again, the investors kept clearing their throats wh

    Daniel No this can't be. It has just been a few days but my world feels empty without Scarlett. I was going to have a meeting with the investors but there was no one to make all the necessary arrangements. My PA only arranged the paperwork while Scarlett handled the venue every time. Now it feels like nothing is going to turn out great. “Sir, may I come in?" my PA asked. "Yes, have you finished everything?” I responded. "No, I think there's a delay with the bookings. I told them it was argent but they—” "Get another place we've only 3 hours. You don't want anything to go bad, right?” I cut her off before she rushed out. During times like this, I wish Scarlett were around. Everything would have been done and I just had to worry about persuading the investors. I spun my chair around and then ran my hand through my hair wondering what to do to get Scarlett. Things have already started going south and I am not managing. A knock sounded before my Mom walked in. Her designer pur

    Scarlett “Wow, this is unbelievable, Scarlett. Just look at all these benefits, it's like you're about to become a billionaire in just one day," Zoe said, going through the contract. Since she's a lawyer I had her go over it when I finished just to make sure I wasn't getting excited over my next worst nightmare. “Should I sign?" I asked nervously looking at her. “Girl, you would regret not signing this. Get over here," she said before I took a seat next to her and began to sign the contract. It took us about 30 minutes to finish signing. I then went to take a shower before coming back to help Zoe prepare dinner. “I don't think you should be here, Scarlett. You've just signed a million-dollar contract, girl. I need you to be in the living room waiting for me to come serve you," Zoe joked before we both began to laugh. “You play too much. I still would love to be in the kitchen. We haven't prepared a meal together in years, come on now," I responded softly, pinching her before I

    Scarlett Zoe had gone to get her hair done at the salon while I decided to remain since it was a little cold. I pulled the blanket tightly around my body, which was still healing. My mind was as though a knife had been taken to every memory and left pieces scattered at every angle. I didn't feel like talking or even facing anyone. But I was fed up with feeling like a victim. I looked at my phone's screen and assumed that it was Daniel trying to reach me at first so I ignored it. Then it buzzed again. From a distance, I looked at the screen expecting to see Daniel or his mother's call, but instead it was from an unknown number. UNKNOWN: Hi Ms. Brown. This is Mr. Lewis Gray from AC STUDIO'S. I believe you received our offer last week. We’d still be honored to have you join us—starting immediately, if you’re ready. I stared at the message. AC STUDIO'S I pulled out my eyes remembering how bad Daniel used to mock them. He even went to the extent of asking me not to take th

    Scarlett A few days later I sat on the chair as Zoe was busy fixing my ponytail. She kept making up stories just to keep me entertained but I knew the truth. I knew why she was trying so hard to distract me. This was it, the day I was supposed to be walking down the aisle but I'm here getting discharged instead. I thought I would be having my husband and sharing the news about the pregnancy on this day, but I've lost both. “There you are, look at you," Zoe said, making me look at myself in the mirror. My hair looked neatly tied up yet the pale face I couldn't hide even if I wanted to. The pain was still inside scratching every part of me that wanted to escape reality. I was about to head to the door when Zoe asked me to wait. “I know this day would have changed everything for you, but just know that you're loved and appreciated, OK," she said, hugging me. "Thank you,” I faked a smile and we made our way out of that room. I looked back at its closed door and wondered how I even
