Gavin was late. He showed up in his usual wears, strolling into the company's vicinity with his hands stabbed into his pockets. The other workers looked at him, and wondered why he was strolling casually into the vicinity in the manner he was, when he had gone missing from work for sometime. It was day time so his post was in the department of logistics where he was a delivery man."Hey, Gavin" one or the men called out. He was tall and lanky, with a look of detest in his eyes. "You have got a lot of nerve strolling in here like that. You have got to go see the boss."Gavin did not give him any words of reply. He knew he had to go see the boss anyway. He merely nodded and went on his way to the office.Opening the door he found a blond haired man with very round spectacles trying to reach out to some object he kept on the top shelf of a cupboard. It was a book and the door opening seemed to have startled the man, having the book fall down. But before it could reach the floor, Gavin

Her eyes focused on a piece of paper before her. It appeared to be a document that she was reading through. But she was not as focused as one would think. Yes, her eyes were pinned on that piece of paper, but her mind wasn't. And this was because of what had happened earlier. Although it had been hours after her mother left, Meghan could not get what she had said off her mind. She was not surprised at how her mother acted because she knew that she was always that way when it had to do with Gavin. She was already used to her family looking down on him,and cussing her out because she choose to be with him, even after everything. But at this point, she did not mind.And honestly, she did not have much to worry about in respect to Gavin. He was her husband and she wanted to be with him, so nothing could change that. But the problem was the assignment. How on earth was she supposed to bring in a meaningful investment just like that? She sighed, turning her focus from the piece of paper to

About two hours later, Sophie walked into the office hurriedly. With her whole countenance, one would think she was being chased after. She went straight into Meghan's office."Hey you." Meghan smiled as she saw her come in. But as she got closer, the smile dissolved into an uncertain look. "What's wrong?" She asked in concern."We need to go, now!" She emphasized on the last word so much that Meghan was confused. "Go where?" Meghan asked immediately, now ignoring everything she was doing before Sophie came in. "Where I told you about..." She placed both her hands on the desk authoritatively. Meghan still seemed lost so she continued. "Your assignment.""Oh, oh!" Meghan exclaimed, her eyes wide with realization. "Now? Why the hurry?" She asked as she slipped some items into her bag. "Do you want to get this over with or not? Let's go already." Sophie emphasized as she began walking towards the exit of the office."Okay, okay." She agreed and followed behind her. The two ladies got

Mr. Adrian did not give it much thought when the women laid down the reasons for coming, he did not even want to give it much thought. He immediately reached out his hand to the cupboard of his table. "If it is investment you want from us, then for sure, just know that you have gotten it. There is no need to make a woman as pretty as you are, stressed. Whatever you need, so long as I am here, you can get it."Meghan was still shocked at the behavior of the director of logistics. He did not act like what she had expected from a man working in such an officer of very good repute."Mr. Director, sir..." Meghan began but got cut off in her speech by him."It's Mr. Adrian to you, please. I have no intention of making you talk to me so formally. You should know that by now. I want you to be free with me, Ms. Meghan. You aren't a mrs right? I mean is there a Mister Meghan somewhere? Does the Stallion family have another son in-law?""Actually..." Meghan felt uncomfortable from deep down her

After Mr. Adrian had finished talking to Sophie, he turned towards Gavin and said, "And you, you have been standing here for sometime without saying a word, do not tell me that you actually came here for nothing. What brought you back to the office, Gavin. Please do not tell me that you came to beg for your salary. Please you should know already that I have said what I intend to say, I am not changing my mind."Gavin kept staring at Meghan, ignoring the voice of Mr. Adrian who stared him down. Mr. Adrian thought of that entire ordeal as nothing more than just Gavin intentionally trying to insult him.Two can play at that game, the man thought to himself, drawing am imaginary battle line and pressing his hands hard on to the hard wood of the table."I really do not understand why we still have you working here. Why are you not fired yet for being a total bozo on the job? You really are useless at everything. Everything. Even timing. You should get put of my office right now. But befo
