"Hey," Levi called out as he pulled his suitcase aside as he bolted the door behind him. "Isn't it like dawn over there? You are awake?""Hmm mmm," Brooklyn nodded; her appearance slightly disheveled on the phone screen. She brushed off the hair strands that had gathered up like a bird nest on her head."I couldn't sleep and when I saw your message, I thought to call you. How are you?""I'm jet lagged," Levi shrugged as he removed his shoes and got into the bathroom.He dropped the phone on the sink casually and began to undress. Brooklyn held back a cough then. "What are you doing? Should I call—""Not like you haven't seen me in my birthday suit before."She almost choked at his shamelessness. But the next words he said caused her blush to disappear."Natalia's here.""Nata... What?" She sat up almost immediately."Wow, why am I the last person to know my wife has a cousin or an uncle somewhere?"Brooklyn almost facepalmed. Seriously? Mischievously, she arched her brows at him and s

You will get familiar with how things work soon," The senior employee assigned to guiding them was a slightly middle-aged man with a distinct burn on his face.Levi wondered if that was how he got his name but he didn't say anything and simply nodded like the others."Yes sir."Mr Burns was pleased by their respectful attitude and turned around to lead them.Although he was a bit unsatisfied with the nerdy and quirky appearance of these new employees which showed their lack of fashion sense, their certificates were impressive."Usually, the CEO along with the heads of the HR department would welcome the new employees but our CEO seems to be busy with something important at the moment so he wouldn't be able to receive

Levi didn't even know when he walked into the room nor did any of them hear the doors close behind them. His heart sank as they passed by the beds.His fingers tightened into fists by his side as his face turned pale and void. Some children were convulsing.Some were just staring into the space cluelessly. They had this listless look on their faces that would break even the most stoic heart.Some were paralyzed while others; probably the ones that had just been brought there were crying and calling for different names.The room was a mess and a scene of total terror. There were doctors around however keeping an eye on the IV and the children.One of them noticed the guards and called out, "Hey! What are you doing? Go out."His words were muffled because of the mask. However his voice snapped Levi and others to reality.Alex thought for a second that it was good Sam didn't accompany them.
