First Day At The Company.

Morning came too fast.

Elena woke up early. She wore a simple cream colored office dress. Her hair was neat, light makeup. She kept checking herself in the mirror. Her hands were cold.

When she came downstairs, Adrian was already waiting in the living room, in his dark navy suit. Laptop in hand, ready.

He looked up. "You ready?"

Elena tried to smile, but her voice was small. "Yes."

"You don't look ready," he said, noticing her hands.

    1:13 AM. MIDNIGHT. CITY HOSPITAL PRIVATE ROOM. Elena opened her eyes slowly. Beeping sound... beep... beep... Her head hurt. Her throat dry. She tried to move, but body felt heavy, weak. She blinked. Looked to her side. Sophia. Sophia was sitting in a chair beside her bed "Sophia...?" Elena's voice was small, hoarse. Sophia looked up fast. "Maam,Maam" She stood up, grabbing both her hands. "Oh my God, you woke up! Elena tried to sit up. "Where... where am I? What happened?" "Shh, shh, don't sit fast," Sophia said, helping her sit slowly, putting pillow behind her. "You are in hospital. Private room." Elena touched her head, confused. "Hospital?" She remembered flashes. So many questions. Then black. "I collapsed...?" she whispered. Sophia nodded"You collapsed at the entrance. Elena looked down at her hospital gown, hands shaking. "What time is it?" Sophia looked at her phone. "1:14 in the midnight." Midnight. She had been unconscious for hours. Ele

    Elena froze. The pen fell from her hand. "What? What happened? Are people inside?" "Yes! Workers are still inside! The fire team is trying but...." Elena didn't hear the rest. Her heart was beating so loud.She stood up so fast "Call ambulance! Call fire trucks! Call everyone! Now!" she shouted, her voice shaking. "How many workers? How many?I want to go there!" Elena grabbed her bag, her heels almost slipping as she ran out of her office. "I have to go now!" Her staff followed her. "Maam! Wait! You can't go! It's dangerous!" they shouted running after her But Elena was already in the elevator, pressing Ground floor again and again, tears in her eyes,her hands trembling. "People are inside! I have to go! I have to see! Please... please don't let anyone die... please..." The elevator doors opened at the main lobby. She ran. Almost fell. Her legs were shaking. She was almost at the main doors when a strong hand caught her arm and pulled her back. Adrian. He had j

Elena tried to smile, but her voice was small. "Yes." "You don't look ready," he said, noticing her hands. "I'm a little nervous," she admitted. He stared at her for a second, then said softly, "You will be fine. Come." The car ride to Laurent Tower was quiet. Elena kept looking out the window, fidgeting with her fingers. Adrian noticed, but he didn't say anything at first. When they arrived, Elena was shocked. Everyone was already waiting. Outside the main entrance, lines of staff in black suits. Inside the lobby, managers, secretaries, assistants. All standing, waiting for her. The moment she stepped out of

    Early morning. Elena woke up slowly in her room. The curtains were half-open, and soft light was falling across the huge room. For a few seconds, she just lay there, looking up.This ceiling. This bed. This quiet.She was still not used to it. She sat up, slipped her feet into the soft slippers by the bed, and wrapped her silk robe around herself. She walked to the railing upstairs and looked down. The house was beautiful in the morning.Sunlight through the high windows, falling on marble. The chandelier catching light even when it was off. Everything clean, calm, perfect . And she lived here now. She came down the stairs slowly, one hand on the railing, taking it all in.And then she saw him. Adrian was in the breakfast nook, not the big formal dining. He was dressed in a black shirt, sleeves folded to his elbows, a grey vest. He sat relaxed but perfect, one leg crossed, a cup of coffee in one hand, reading som

    The mansion was too quiet. When Elena was a maid, the mansion was never quiet there was always Chloe shouting, Vivian's bracelets and heels clinking. Now it was silent. The guards had brought her back from the Laurent Tower. They opened the front door for her and said, "Welcome home, Miss Laurent." Home. She sat down on the edge of the staircase,so much had happened in 48 hours. Yesterday she was scrubbing Chloe's bathroom tiles. This morning she was called Chairwoman and now... now the house was hers, but she didn't know where to put her feet. The front door opened. Adrian came in. He saw her sitting on the stairs small, lost, her knees pulled together and he stopped. "Elena." She looked up quickly and stood. "Sir .. I mean... Adrian." "You shouldn't sit there," he said quietly. "Sorry, I ..." "You own the stairs now," he said. She didn't know what to say to that. He walked up to her "Come with me." "Where?" "To a place you have never been." He

Vivian's head lifted instantly. Chloe stopped pacing. "Mother," Chloe whispered. "Who..." Vivian didn't answer. She was already moving. She opened the door. Adrian stood there.His tie loosened.
