Knowing that he and his secretary once had a romantic history together but that they couldn't be together because he was married, Nathan usually wondered how Tori had felt all those while. He usually wondered if she ever moved on but couldn't bring himself to ask her the question. Hearing that she was getting married was a news that shocked him but also relieved him."You are not saying anything Mr Anakin." Tori said with a big smile still on her face."Oh! Of course, I'm so happy for you." He said. He got off his chair and went to her, giving her a hug, "congratulations Tori.""Thank you Mr Anakin." She smiled, hugging him back. "But sir.""Yeah?" "I need a favor from you." She said as she crossed her arms at her middle. "I think I owe you a lot of favors by now." He said and Tori smiled. "Tell me, I'll do anything for you.""I would like you and your wife, Doris, to join us this Saturday while we have dinner.""You'd like us to join you for dinner?""Yeah, I mean I would like you
"So Chris, walk me through your resume." Nathan said to a young man that sat opposite him."Well, I just graduated from Harvard university with a bachelor's degree in economics and I'm on the search for a job." "That's it?" Nathan asked with an arched brow. "I don't have any working experience but I've always wanted to work here ever since I found out about the existence of your company sir." Chris said, smiling. "Chris, as much as I admire your optimism to work with us, I need a man with at least three years experience in this field.""Mr Anakin, before I can get that three years of experience, I need to start somewhere. Please sir, every interview I've gone for have rejected me because I didn't have five years working experience, I need a job." He pleaded, almost on his knees.One of Nathan's staff had resigned due to personal reasons and Nathan had been working double time to fill in the space. It was too much of work for him so he decided to employ a new staff. Of all the other
Tori glared at Nathan for a few moments in silence but then managed to force a smile on her face, "oh it's fine sir, I know, you are a busy man." She chuckled."Tori i am really sorry, my friend Camille just got back from China and her Dad invited me over for dinner, you know Mr Saheed right?""I do, but I also know she is your friend and friends are more important than a mere staff, I totally get it." She smiled."Tori that is not the way it is–""You asked me to represent you at the meeting with the Blossom family and I'm already running late, I'd like to get going now sir." She cut him off and walked away."What is wrong with me! What am I going to do now?" He asked himself as he watched her storm off.For the rest of the day, she spoke to him formally and avoided him all though unless it was for office reasons.Nathan went home, believing she was overreacting and he explained things to his wife."Nathan, I know Camille is your friend but she isn't as important as Tori is in our li
In every large town now there are dozens of shopping complexes to cater for the ever increasing population. These complexes contain a variety of shops. They sell shoes, sports goods, clothes, computers, video and audio equipment, furniture, musical instruments, cameras and films, food, drinks and many other things.There was one shopping complex in the town of Ettavile that was frequented by many people. One would say that it is the most popular in town.Doris had left home after enjoying the breakfast her husband made her then went to her Mother's place. "Mom, I promise you I won't be long, just look after him till I get back." "It's no problem honey, won't you stay and have breakfast?" "Oh I already had breakfast." She turned to face her son, "you be a good boy okay? Grandma is going to play with you till I get back."Williams nodded in response and she smiled. She handed him over to Evelyn and gave her a small bag pack, "here are some of his favorite toys and inside the bag is a
Nathan had refused they slept at home that night and insisted on sleeping at a hotel. He went into his bedroom to pack a few clothes as he had the intention of staying away for a few days and Doris along with officer Ravencrest followed him."Mr Anakin, I assure you that my boys can keep you safe, they will stay up all night guarding your doors and windows." Officer Ravencrest said to Nathan."I appreciate that but I just can't stay here tonight.""Baby they can keep us safe." Doris said as she placed a hand on his shoulder."Honey I'm not willing to take any chance, I feel like I'd be risking your safety and Williams' as well.""But the police have decided to stay with us.""Why aren't you packing a few things for yourself and Williams?" "Because we don't need to baby, they will keep us safe.""They can stay here and search the house properly, I mean for all we know, there might be a bomb under the bed, chairs and or tables." He said as he folded a few clothes into a small bag."Is
Richard laid on the ground, utterly still, eyes open as if admiring the heavens. As Nathan approached him at full speed, praying somewhere in his mind that he would as much as move a finger, Richard remained still and a cursory glance was enough to know he was dead, or so Nathan thought.His eyes had turned red with blood and his other sensory organs gushed out blood."Richard, please wake up." Nathan said almost in tears as he knelt beside him. He didn't know what to do next, Tori had called the ambulance and instructed him to wait on their arrival.Fresh blood oozed from every part of Richard as he laid with his back on the hard gravel floor and Nathan had imagined the amount of pain he must have felt in his last moments."What happened to him?!" Nathan yelled.A woman stepped forward and began explaining, "he seemed to have been in a hurry to get somewhere, he tried to cross the road but didn't notice the car that was speeding. The car came and swept him off his feet and now the dr
"Doris, hurry up or I'll be late!" Nathan yelled out."You don't have to yell," Doris said as she walked in with Nathan's tie in her hands. "You know I'm actually surprised she is still having this party after what happened to her friend just a few days ago." She chatted on as she placed the tie around Nathan's neck and began to knot it."It's not her, it's her Dad, you should know the kind of woman Camille is.""And what kind of woman is she?" She asked as she looked up at his face."Are you seriously asking me that?""Yeah," she nodded, "you know I hardly met her, I didn't even remember who she was until you told me.""Hmm, do I smell jealousy?" Nathan teased as he wrapped his arms around her waist."What no! I'm just saying she shouldn't be having such an elaborate party when her friend is in such a condition, I mean, does she even care?""Hey don't say that, she's not even happy right now, that's why I need to be there for her.""Mmm, okay no problem, what I wanna know is why wasn
"What did you just say Doris?" Nathan yelled out with his eyes wide open."I said Ronnie Anne is here!" Doris squealed with excitement."Nathan, talk to me, what's going on?" Camille asked.Before Nathan could utter any more words, Doris hung up the phone, making him more anxious than he was before, "Doris? Doris!""Nathan! You are feeling me out for fucks sake!" Camille yelled out."There's a ghost in my house.""A ghost?""I have to go, I'll see you later or I'll give you a call okay?" He yelled as he started to descend from the rooftop."Nathan, wait , I'm coming with you." She instantly followed, chasing him from behind.★★★Doris had spent the whole day at home with Williams until an unexpected guest showed up at her doorstep.While Doris was in the kitchen, preparing dinner for her son, she heard the sound of the doorbell as it rang, she hesitated for a moment wondering who it could be but didn't answer, it rang again, "who is it?" She finally asked as she left the kitchen for t
