Writer's point of view

Why didn't you come to work yesterday, you want to get fired? Charlie shouted into the phone.

I'm sorry for what happened Sir, it was partly my fault, I fell ill, pleaded the bodyguard.

Sorry for you guys, I'm just gonna let this slide go, if you were here all this wouldn't have happened, he purred, get to work right away, he ordered.

I will sir, please forgive....

He cut off the call before the guard could finish his statement.

What an incompetent fool he curses under his breath.

He honked his car and security opened the door.

Morning gentleman, he greeted but received no response, this is not a new thing for him, no matter who you are, his boss here can never answer your greetings.

Charlie approached a perfect spot in the parking lot and the car stopped.

His boss, the workers, shouted and everyone started running towards his workstation.

The official guards ran towards him and one of them retrieved his briefcase.

Hello sir, they greeted each other in unison but silence greeted them as usual.

There's nothing good this morning, you're all incompetent, he shouted.

No one dares to speak, they have already heard the news, as they say, rumors fly like wildfire.

He personally asked them to stay put while he picked up his customers, but the workers are still to blame. It's the part of Charlie they're used to.

He whistled and walked past them. Would you open the door? and don't you get paid to work your asses, move... He slammed on them and one of the guards ran up and opened the door for him, he looked at that particular guard malevolently. The guard lowered his head to avoid a life threatening look from his boss.

He walked through the door with authority, raising his shoulder like a proud peacock. His aura screamed coldness, command and arrogance.

The workers lower their heads as he approaches.

Hello Sir They greeted.

His secretary ran towards him. Welcome sir, he greeted him adjusting his suit.

Don't talk to me, I'm mad at you, he told her.

I don't know my offense, but I'm sorry sir, he apologized.

Like seriously? Charlie pulled over, don't you know your offense?

That was a slip sir, I know my offense and I'm sincerely sorry that Donald pleaded.

It's fine you know, this is all your fault so I want you to gather all the information on that girl he was commanding.

I can't sir, his face was cut from the video, he responded in a shaky voice and was also fidgeting in the process.

What? His face was cut, he cried.

Yes sir, it was cut, he replied, avoiding his boss's gaze.

Shit, he swore hoarsely, that girl is a witch.

why is he mad, he thinks everyone will tolerate his attitude, she didn't squeeze his c**k well or he wouldn't have the courage to take revenge, one of the workers whispered.

I agree with what you said Nora, what an arrogant asshole the one being whispered back to.

Without knowing for them that Charlie heard their words..

What did you say? He pointed at Nora who was grinding her teeth murderously.

Me? Nora panicked, sorry sir. She shivered and fell to her knees.

You think it's a joke, someone almost killed your boss and all you mean is I deserved it, for that you're both fired, he thundered.

You can't do this sir, please...this will be the fifth job I will lose this year, pleaded Nora.

Sir, it won't happen another time, forgive our mistake this time The other gossip pleaded.

Security, he shouted, security...

Yes boss one of the titles has arrived.

Get that asshole out of my company, next time they'll learn to control their tongue, he ordered.

Yes sir The security man answered. this way he ordered to bring Nora and Felicia out.

This should serve as a warning to you all, learn to control your tongue when you're around me he half shouted.

Yes boss They responded with heavy panting.

Now go back to your post, see you in ten minutes, he purred and headed for the elevator.

Everyone ran to their workstations, they don't want to get fired.

Hello Mrs. Tina greeted Mrs. Camella.

Hello Mr. Duventus and good day to you Mrs. Camella Davis also greeted.

Good morning to you both, Ms. Camella replied. What are you doing here?

We came to see Mela as usual ma'am, we're best friends forever Tina chuckled.

You see my daughter wasn't like this before but since you both came into her life she has completely changed Mrs. Camella mumbled, her husband didn't say a word.

What do you mean? Mela has always been like that, that's how she was before she went to Seoul to stay with her grandfather and that's how she was when we went to college Tina screamed , stop blaming us, we are not the cause of all that she spat.

Calm down Tina Davis cooed. But with all due respect ma'am, you have no right to blame us, we love her that way and that will never change, for you she might be a bone stuck in your throat, but for us, it's one of the things we love. she whispered.

I see.. Mrs. Camella chuckled and jumped to her feet. You two should get out of my house, she cried boldly.

They won't shout Lamela from where she stood.

She actually came to get something from the kitchen but saw her mother yelling at her friends, her mother has the problem of blaming others for her children's misbehavior, but this time she wouldn't allow her to reject the fault on his childhood friends.

What you said? Mrs. Camella closed her doors.

I said they weren't going anywhere, Lamela spat.

You dare challenge me Mrs. Camella shouted, honey, do something she ordered.

You were wrong Camella, the way you spoke to his friends was disrespectful, dropped Mr. Duventus.

This is bullshit, you gang up on me, you chose your daughter over me, she brawled.

That's not it honey, he tried to explain but she hissed and ran out of the living room.

What did I do? thought Mr. Duventus.

Look at him, I just offended my wife because of you two, he snapped and ran after her.

Honey, I'm sorry he begged when he approached their room

Why was he calling you Mrs. Stella Ingrid asked as they retired from the management office.

I think he took me for someone Stella replied trying to end the conversation.

Hmmmmm Ingrid hummed suspiciously. Is that right?

Of course that's it, he gave you respect too, Stella muttered.

There he is, the student screamed and started running pushing himself in the process.

Morgan... The student screamed from behind and went gaga.

Stella was rebuffed in the process. Watch where you're going, she said.

Ingrid lifted her off the floor. What was that? she asked bewildered.

Don't bother them, that's how they behave when they see Morgan Ingrid explained, He's everyone's crush.

Including you? She asked

No....Damn no...I have no feelings for him, if you want to graduate in peace avoid him otherwise my sister will make this school hell for you She advised.

Seriously like? Is he going out with her? Stella asked.

It's her crush, Ingrid whispered and Stella laughed uncontrollably.

She's crazy Stella laughs harder.

She shouldn't hear you Ingrid advised.

I just heard her Ariana say from behind.

I just heard you scream Ariana.

Oops, that's not good, Ingrid whispered to Stella as Ariana approached them with a murderous glare.

I think letting you go early was a mistake, I'll put you where you belong bitch she screamed and raised her hand to slap Stella but Stella was quick enough to hold her.

Never try what you intended, if other students allow you to treat them recklessly then definitely not me, next time you raise your hand to slap me I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget never in a hurry Stella brawls and throws Ariana's hand.

Did she just yell at you, Valerie purred, does she know who you are? She is Ariana Lighter, the daughter of the famous business tycoon, don't cross her role.

Dad didn't tell you to get him into trouble at school, what's wrong with your sister Ingrid closed her eyes.

I don't talk to losers like you, so you better shut that thing you call a mouth Ariana shouted.

Listen and listen carefully black girl we are the B-3 the rulers of this academy you better give us the respect we deserve or prepare to leave this school thugs like you don't deserve to be here your louis vuitton is fake and it's obvious, don't post your fake outfits here because you abuse those who have the original collection. never, I repeat, never think of becoming friends with my Morgan, otherwise... I'll kill you, she threatened.

Let's go girl she commanded and her minions are following her.

Don't mind his beginner, you'll get used to it, said Serayah

I don't mind Stella replied, nice puppy though.

Awnn, his name is dash She answered.

Serayah..... Ariana screamed

I'm coming, she answered and she ran as fast as her leg could to catch them.

Just one day and I've already messed up Stella sighed in frustration.

It's not your fault girl, just try to avoid them, stay with me and I assure you everything will be fine, replied Ingrid.

Let's go to class, we'll have class in a few minutes, Ingrid muttered, glancing at the watch on her wrist.

Follow the path that Stella commanded

As you wish She answered.

****************""

Morgan Ariana called out putting her hair behind her ears.

Morgan I'm talking to you, she shouted and made sure to block his way.

What! He snapped, isn't it early for that, get out of my sight.

Bro this is rude, at least say something nice to him, stop being a joy killer Valerie mumbled.

I don't have your time Valerie, I'm going to ignore this today but next time you get in my way I'll tell my guys to teach you all a lesson He yelled and they flinched.

Let's go guys, he told his friends.

Is it a crime to love you, I really love you but all you do is hurt my feelings, is it a crime to develop feelings for you She said wiping away invisible tears.

This trick won't work on me, back off, motherfucker, he closed the door and walked away with his friends.

I thought you said he felt the same way about me, so why did he do that? Ariana asked, gritting her teeth.

My brother is a bit shy, tip me and I'll talk to him, Valerie replied, scratching her hair apologetically.

You better do, I'll pay you when he agrees to go out with me. She replied rudely and stormed out.

Wait for us her friends shouted from behind but she ignored them.

She was too angry to listen to what anyone was saying.

Your mother is something else that Mela Tina complained about, why blame others for your actions like what she did earlier.

I'm sorry Lamela begged, forgive her for me.

I'll think about it, you'll have to buy me an ice cream before I think about forgiving him, Tina muttered.

Then we have a deal. Mela chuckled.

Did Davis break the news to you? She added.

What news are you talking about? Tina asked, looking at Davis.

I'm getting married Lamela announced.

What? Tina yelled, are you stupid Mela, how can you think of getting married now, how long have you been dating him?

I know him Tina, it's an arranged marriage She replied, taking her finger to avoid Tina's gaze.

Ion like this Mela, your parents are something else, haven't they done enough harm already, Tina shouted.

Lower your voice Tina Mela mumbles, Davis says something.

Tina's right Mela, you shouldn't get married now, marry someone who will love and adore you not some unknown asshole Davis mumbled.

We already talked about it Davis, I'm getting married and that's it, Lamela replied, staring at him.

Whatever your decision, I'm behind you, Tina said.

Finally, thank you bestie Lamela smiled and pecked Tina's cheek.

And me? Davis pouted

In your dreams, Lamela gave him a playful look and he laughed.

What is the date of the wedding? I gotta get ready, you know, I'm gonna look hot that day, I'm gonna be the talk of the town, it's not easy having a best friend like me, Tina said.

I know the date...

Next week is the wedding Granny Tessy shouted from where she was listening.

What? They all shouted in unison.
