Ryan"Sir!" Kate shrieked barging into my office as she threw down a paper ontop my desk."What is it?"She pushed the paper towards my face, piquing my interest. Taking the paper from her hands, I read it's content. "What!?" I shouted, springing up from my seat. "Is this correct?""Yes""But how....the company was fairing so well weeks ago" According to the paper in my hands, a huge sum of money had been taken from the company's safe and that was all we'd come up with to pay back the investors. I hit the paper hard against the desk, sending it flying across the room as I yelled, "How could this have happened!?"Kate yelped, jumping backwards; she was probably taken aback by my sudden outburst as she shuddered visibly. "I..don't know, sir. Only you and sir Micheal has access to the company's safe"That's right. Only I and Micheal had access to the company's safe and I don't believe Micheal would have done something as stupid as that so if not him then who?My eyes widened as realizat

CiaraMy alarm rings jolting me up from my sleep as I grudgingly reached over my bedstand to turn it off. I was seriously dreading another day in that office again today. Climbing down from my bed, I dragged my feets to the bathroom to wash up. Pressing down on the coils of my neck, I groaned. "I'm still feel tired from last night. Should I just sleep in today?"Immediately, I shook the idea off. "Zaden Kendall would be on my neck if I do that" Exhaling deeply, I picked up my toothbrush. "Let's just go"After washing up, I moved to the kitchen to fix a simple toast when my head began to bang suddenly, making me stumble backwards. "What's wrong me?" I mumbled placing my fist infront of my lips as I let out a heavy cough. "Did I fall Ill last night because of the rain?"Placing my hands onto my temple, the back of my skin burnt. "It's hot. I guess I am sick. Anyways, I'm still going to work"Since I didn't have the strength to fix myself breakfast, I moved back to my bedroom to dress

Jonathan. I have to admit, I've never thought of showing Ciara where I live because compare to her mansion, my place is...simple so as we walked home together--sorry scratch that--I meant my place together, I was nervous. It was a strange and exciting feeling for me because I couldn't remember ever being nervous of showing somewhere I lived but then, here I was."Home sweet home" I say."So this is where you live""Yes""It's quite a long walk. You must be so exhausted everytime"Exhausted, yes but it was different today; because of you. "I hope you'd let me stay over one of these days. Seeing as the lights are still on, Alena must be waiting for you. Goodnight then and don't forget to tell her about the fashion week"As I watched Ciara turn her back on me, I decided to grab onto this opportunity and out of nowhere, I say, "It's dark and chilly outside already and you're still recovering so, why don't you stay the night?"When Ciara turned to face me, slowly breaking into a smile. "

RyanAll night I hadn't slept a wink, rather I'd stayed up to find a solution to this situation. I'd made calls to numerous companies, tried to take out loans even but nothing worked out. What do I do now?. I thought pacing to and fro my living room; I couldn't bring myself to go to the company without a solution and besides me Micheal and the other complain shareholders would be looking for me--home is the only safe place for me right now---My phone rang and seeing that it was Kate, I picked it up; she's the only one I still kept in touch with from the office as we were both still looking for a way around this mess. "Yes Kate, any luck?" I inquired. "YOU" Micheal's growl echoed through the phone speaker. "Where are you? And why are you screening my calls? Report to the office, now!!"Before I could respond, Micheal had hung up. Grabbing the locks of my hair in-between my fingers, I let out a loud scream."Shit!"I was really lost for words on what to do now. Everything I'd worke

JonathanStretching my arms out wide, I groaned at the end of another successful busy day. Preparing to close the store for the door, I packed the dirty dishes to the sink to wash them. As I did the dishes, I thought back to Ciara's advice about the picnic. As I dwelled upon it, the main entrance door slid open as Alena's figure came to view. "I thought I told you not to show up at the store today, young lady?" I questioned. Alena rolled her eyes, playfully dumping her school bag on an empty chair as she joined me. "Oh, give me a break old man. School is way past over and so is my lesson. Should I help with the dishes?""And homework?""I did them during lesson, do you want to confirm?"Don't get me wrong, I admired how much Alena wanted to help me around the store but I didn't want her grades dripping because of it. "I'm good. Put on some gloves then"Alena beamed. "Alright, dad!""You know, I was thinking...""Thinking about what?" Alena probed scrubbing the dishes. "A picnic..
