Annie woke up with her head banging. She groaned as she recalled drinking with Naomi, she must have drunk a lot earlier in the day to feel this way now. The both of them had cooked, eaten, and laughed while making derogatory remarks about her boss. Then they proceeded to watch a movie on Netflix. How she moved from watching Netflix to being hungover in the evening, she had no idea. Though she was grateful it was Saturday. She wasn't going to put up with her boss's bad character for two days and she was glad. Annie made to leave the bed and that was when she realized she wasn't the only one laying on it. She quickly turned to see who it was and chuckled when she realized it was Naomi. "Well, I guess I'm not the only one who would suffer from a migraine today," she said. "Wake up Naomi, it's evening already!!" she screamed as she glanced at the wall clock in her bedroom. "Urghhh... Go away!" She heard her friend groan. Annie sighed as she quickly got up from the bed and made
Days ran into weeks and weeks into months. Life hasn't been pleasant for Annie but she continued to push. She was able to foot the bill for Angie's surgery and soon her sister would have her surgery, and everything will be fine. She missed her family a lot. She wished for a vacation so she could go visit them, but she had overheard a rumour from the employees that the CEO never allowed them to go on vacation, so she knew it wasn't going to be possible. "Douchebag!" she muttered under her breath and sighed. She had worked for him for about six months now, she had gotten used to him and his tantrums. His words meant nothing to her anymore. She thought back to those awful moments when he had humiliated and embarrassed her. Annie had learned to block out everything during those moments. She would just stand with her head bowed waiting for when he was done screaming and hurling insults at her and when he was done, he would ask her to leave his presence. But she was only human, wasn'
Annie woke up the next day feeling anxious. It was Angie’s surgery day. She prayed to God silently that the surgery was successful though she wasn’t religious and didn’t go to church but at this point if there was truly a God she needed his help now. She let out a long sigh as she got out of bed. She looked at the time and saw it was 10 am. The scheduled time for her checkup was noon which was the same time her sister’s surgery will begin. She picked up her phone and called her mum. “Hey mum, how are you?” she asked “how’s she? Is she ok?” “Relax Annie darling, she’s fine. Everything is ok. Your sister is sleeping right now. Don’t bother yourself, I know she’s going to make it out alive”. Annie tried to hold her tears as she spoke with her mother. She didn’t tell her mother about her appointment with the doctor as she didn’t want her to get worked up. “Please call me when she’s out of the theatre mum” she begged her mum. “Of course, I will darling. Do take care of yours
It was the beginning of a new week. Annie was full of life and super excited. Spending the weekend with her friend Naomi had been the best idea. Annie got to work earlier than usual. She had a full desk and needed to finish up before her boss arrived. She was working on a file her boss needed for a business deal with a potential client when her phone rang. She picked it up without checking who the caller was. ” Hello” “Good morning. Am I speaking with Miss Anna Gilbert?” a female voice said. “This is Annie Gilbert” she corrected as she sighed. This wasn’t the first time someone referred to her as Anna. “How may I help you?” she added “I am Dr West’s Assistant and I’m calling on his behalf, your result is ready and the doctor will like to know if you can come down to the hospital to discuss things,” the voice said. Annie frowned as she wondered what could be the issue. Knowing her boss, she knew she wouldn’t be able to rush down to the hospital. “I don’t think I can
Occazia is one of the biggest empires in Los Angeles owned by popular business tycoon Frederick Jimenez, he was a business-minded man and gregarious as well. He was running for mayor in his city so he planned on building a convention centre to get the attention of the people and he needed Damien’s help with the designs, he trusted Damien to do a good job besides Damien designed Occazia himself. Damien walked into Fredericks's office, and the smell of cigarettes filled the air as he walked in. seeing Damien, he stood up to welcome him. “Hello Damien, nice to finally meet you again, have your seat please,” Frederick said pointing to the chair in front of him “Hello, Mr Frederick,” Damien said as he sat down. He offered Damien a cigarette which he refused with a frown “Thank you, I don’t smoke,” he said “Of course, you don’t, how can I forget that? So can I see the design you have for me?” Frederick asked Damien presented the designs in a blueprint and Frederick was impres
Annie had decided to book an appointment with the therapist, she also needed a break from work to feel better, and taking a leave from work would help but she didn't know how to tell her boss. He had always refused his workers from going on a break, he considered it an act of laziness, but her health was more important than her job and she didn't care if she loses her job. She braced herself as she followed him to his office immediately after he arrived, she went in carrying his tray of coffee and favourite snack. "Good morning sir, …." "What do you want?!" He screeched at her, he obviously wasn't in a good mood this morning, well he was never in a good mood. "Sir, I-l-uhm I need to talk to you, it's important," Annie said in a frightened voice as she dropped the tray on his table "Say what you want to say and get the hell out of my office" he definitely was in a really bad mood. Annie wondered why he was always grumpy and mean. “Are you going to stand there moping or are
It is dangerous to exist in the world. To exist is to be threatened. We must live with threats…………….. Receiving threats was no longer new for Damien but finding who ladybird was his top priority and he needed to find them before they get to him. He had hired a private investigator as Esme suggested and investigations had begun. He glared at the letter on his desk, he was getting tired of receiving empty threats from them, he wished he could find the sender and end it once and for all. Seeing the letter disgusted him the most. He had informed the detective about all the things happening and the letter he had received earlier and was waiting for his arrival. The detective walked in wearing a grey suit and black pants, he had dark shades on and walked gigantically with his hand in his left pocket, he had a stern look on his face that made people tremble, he carried his briefcase like it meant everything to him. Damien was meeting him for the first time and he wasn’t quite pleased.
It was the beginning of a brand new day, and the first day of Annie’s therapy. Annie woke up to the rays of the sun streaming through the slats of her blinds, cascading over her naked chest. She stretched, her breast lifting with her arms as she greeted the sun. she rolled out of bed and put on a shirt, her nipples prominently showing through the thin fabric. She breasted boobily to the stairs and tilted downstairs. The sweet aroma coming from the kitchen drew her attention, she wondered who it was since she was the only one at home. Naomi had to be at her art exhibition very early this morning and wouldn't be back until late at night. Annie walked into the kitchen and found out that there was a plate of chicken fried steak and a cup of coffee on the dining table but there was no one in there. “Hello! Who is here?” she asked, “Naomi!” she called out but there was no response. She wandered around the house hoping to find someone but there was no luck, there was nobody in the hou
