Amber has lived in Chicago for the past three years after she moved from Boston to start her office work where she works as the secretary to the CEO of the biggest Department store, Shell House. Her everyday work was always hectic but who was she to complain when her boss was always working with her even late into the night so it was not as if he was punishing her on purpose but one thing she really love about her boss, Tom Holland is that no matter how hard they have to work, he makes sure she enjoys her weekend so every Friday she goes home as early as possible. This particular Friday was like every other one and she was so happy to get off work because she actually had her own plans for the day. “Miss Amber, the sales report should be ready by 2pm on Monday so make sure you try to finish it up over the weekend” Tom, her boss said to her as he came out of his office wearing a tired look on his face. The week have been extremely stressful for them because new arrivals just came in

Tom Holland left the office on Friday evening and was driving home when he got a call from Dave Lin the famous designer who owns the biggest cloth brand in Paris. He had been trying to sign a partnership deal with him for close to two years but it never worked. The manager of Dave Lin called him and told him that he should come over to the club to sign off the agreement if he still wants it because will be flying out of Chicago very early the next morning. He quickly turned the car around and zoomed off to the place he was called to where he met Dave Lin. Dave immediately explained, “Oh Mr. Tom! I am sorry that you didn’t get a positive response from me all these while. It is due to my extremely busy schedule and also I wanted to see you in person. The owner of Shellhouse mall in Chicago is extremely popular so I didn’t want to waste the chance” as soon as he saw him and he exchanged handshakes with him Tom wanted to counter him that he could have just told him so instead of keeping

Joseph has been staying in Dubai for over three years and refused to stay home after his graduation. He would always argue about how he was still small to work at the company. “I want to enjoy my twenties a little bit because once I start working I won’t have the time for that anymore” he argued whenever their father brought up the topic of him coming back home. He finally came home that afternoon, and he didn’t even let Tom know, just to surprise him. “You came this afternoon? How come I was not informed?” Tom questioned. “Because I wanted to surprise you. Look at how shocked you are right now” he replied with a chuckle, and Tom sighed. “Do you like making a fool out of people?” Tom slammed him and he raised his eyebrows. “What do you mean by making a fool out of people?” he asked. “You said you would not be coming home anytime soon, so why are you here?” Tom questioned. “Oh that? I realized that there was no fun for me anymore in Dubai because I had visited every place for th

Emily left the house very early the next morning after telling Amber that she had an early morning test. Amber dressed up and went to work also in a better mood than that of the previous day, since Eddy had made her feel better last night. She got to the office and saw the text from Tom saying he would be coming to the office late, so she attended the meeting with the heads of teams in his stead. “Whatever” she mouthed as she read the text and removed her long coat to start the day’s work. When it was time for the meeting, she picked up her coat and left for the conference room at the far end of the left side of the top floor of the building. She was shown respect as the secretary to the CEO as she entered and sighed “At least, I still have some respect left for my name”, she thought, and had her seat “The CEO will not be joining us today because he has something urgent to attend to, so we will start the meeting without him. What do we have on the ground?”, she asked, and one of

As Emily was hanging out with Mark and Jessica at the game house, she kept checking her phone as if she was expecting a call or message. Jessica, who had noticed for quite a while, decided to ask what was going on with her. “You seem restless, why are you staring at your phone all day?” Jessica asked, moving closer to her. “I am expecting a call from home, that’s why” she replied immediately with a nervous smile. “You rarely talk about home, but I hope it is not something serious though,” Jessica remarked, and she shook her head. “No it is not. Do not worry about me and have fun”, she responded with another smile and Jessica left her. A text dropped on her phone and she immediately checked it to see that it was from Amber, who told her that she would be running late that day since something came up at the office. She also let her know that she might not be coming home for the night, so she should not be worried or stay up waiting for her. **** Amber knocked on the door to Eddy’s
