THE LUCAS’S EMPIRE*
Nicole yawned widely after signing the last document on her desk. The day has been hectic for her and she hated it.
She has been signing papers since she got to work in morning and now it’s 4pm in the evening.
She was so exhausted and needed recharge. She stood up and walked over to the espresso machine making a cup of coffee.
“That pathetic boss” She murmured as her mind flew back to what had happened that morning. She remembering seeing him shirtless made her drool in a way she didn’t imagine she could.
“His cute though.” she said and took a sip of her coffee but poured it out instantly.
“Hot, hot,hot…ouch my tongue!”
‘Oops, that’s for calling your boss pathetic.’ her subconsciousness whispered to her and she scoffed.
“its not my fault, he’s just too bossy.” she complained out loud as she remembered him telling her to take care of his job, since he wasn’t going to come to work anyways.
“Who’s just too bossy” Her colleague stacy asked as she helped her to wipe her shirt with a napkin.
“When did you get here?” Nicole asked.
“I’ve been there watching you day dreaming. what’s up with you?”
“Nothing, just tired. I’ve been working all day because of the boss and it’s tiring.” Nicole replied and Stacy smiled.
“Well, it’s because you are his personal assistant and it’s your job.” She said while Nicole just sipped from her cup of coffee, by this time she has already diluted it.
“Yeah, you are right but that doesn’t mean that I have to do everything. Could you imagine he didn’t show up at work today because he got drunk and having a migraine.” Nicole stated with a scoff before placing her cup of coffee on the counter.
Stacy turned to her looking shock than ever, that wasn’t what the boss had told them…it was definitely different.
“But Sir Camdan said he had an urgent business to attend to…your story is different.”
“Huh?” Nicole asked dumbfounded. She knew she had exposed everything already. How would she get out of this mess right now.
“Wait! Don’t tell me you both are dating.” Stacy asked with a snap of the finger and Nicole laughed hysterically.
“What?! No, we’re not dating…stop thinking about such.” Nicole said brushing the thought off with her fingers.
“Of course he wouldn’t date someone like you. You are not his type of girl, neither are you in his class.” Claudia chimed in and Nicole rolled her eyes.
Claudia is one of the most hottest worker in the company and many guys have got their eyes on her. She has the most pretty eyes and they are a killer but Nicole is her worst enemy probably because she’s loved by everybody.
“And what if we are dating, what are you going to do?” Nicole retorted and she smirked.
“It will never happen Nicole, so stop day dreaming already otherwise you might go nuts.”
“And how does it concern you?” Nicole asked and she just smiled before walking away.
“Don’t listen to her Nicole, she’s just a pain in the ass.” stacy said and Nicole nodded in affirmation. She glanced at her wrist watch and gasp.
“Geez, am wasting so much time when I still have papers to deal with. I gotta go stacy, chat ya later.” She said and rushed off without giving a room for stacy to reply.

*****
Nicole got to Camdan’s office looking for where he kept his unsigned documents. She was so angry but was trying to control herself. Whenever she tried to keep calm, the words of stacy will keep playing in her ear.
“Of course he wouldn’t date someone like you. You are not his type of girl, neither are you in his class.”
“Fk, just stop!” Nicole cussed out loud trying to get the thought out of her head. But one thing was true, she wasn’t his type of girl and she couldn’t deny that fact.
After brushing the thought off, she continued from where she stopped by looking for the unsigned documents.
She saw a drawer at the front of his desk and without wasting much time, she opened it and it and it revealed the documents.
She carried them from the drawer and something fell off. She picked it up and seeing it was an envelope, she wanted to keep it back but her eyes met with a writing on it.
“Sunshine city hospital?” she wondered and afterwards opened it. Her eyes widened in shock and her knees was weakening as she read the whole content. She quickly put the envelope back into the drawer and left the office.

QUIN’S ELEMENTARY SCHOOL*
Tara was seated on a chair while an elderly woman squatted to help her fix her shoe laces. The woman kept smiling at Tara as she was fixing her shoe laces. She’s actually a cleaner at Tara’s school.
“You look like someone I know dear” The elderly woman blurted out and Tara just smiled, but later spoke up.
“Who is he?”
“Well, he’s my son; a very handsome one at that and you behave like him.” The woman replied and Tara gasped.
“Does he attend our school?”She asked and the woman laughed. What kind of a child is this, one moment she acts mature and the next moment, she acts childish…after all she’s a child.
“No dear, he doesn’t attend your school. He’s a grown up.” The woman replied and Tara facepalmed herself.
“I thought he was actually my age type.”
“And…am done!” the woman said as she tied the last shoe lace. Tara stood up and the woman squatted to her level as she pecked her forehead.
“Whenever I see you around your friends, it reminds me of my son when he was little. He’s so shy and doesn’t maintain eye contact, even though he’s being bullied, he doesn’t fight back.”
“But am not that way ma…am very strong.” Tara said and the lady chuckled lightly before caressing her face.
“You are really beautiful… you’ve got the prettiest eyes”
“Wow…Thank you ma. But what about your son, where is he?” Tara asked with a sad expression on her face.
“I have no idea dear…I don’t know where he is or how he’s doing.”
“it’s ok, you will be fine.” Tara hugged her. “I need to get to class now”
The woman watched her as she ran to her class and a tear dropped down her face. The little girl reminds her of her beloved son whom doesn’t know if he’s alive or not. After cleaning her tear, she returned back to her duty.

HONEY SALT’S KITCHEN*
Asha wipes the tears that was seen on her face as she continued to mop the restaurant. Her energy has been drained and anyone who was smart could notice.
“Don’t you think you should stop for few minutes? You can collapse at this rate” Lucy said and she smiled faintly.
“Am fine, I need to get my bonus. You know it means a lot to me.” Asha replied and she hmmmed.
After a while she entered the kitchen to continue her cooking job too.
The restaurant wasn’t filled with much customers and Asha was glad. Her work would lessen and she needed it to.
She kept cleaning and suddenly lost hold of the mop stick as she felt drowsy. She was about to collapse when she felt a hand wrapped around her waist. She looked up and found Josh holding her as his eyes gazed right into hers.
