"Please excuse me. I'm sorry "Olivia bumped into an employee but apologized, almost immediately and ran as fast as her legs could carry her towards the elevator. She held onto five lunch bags.
She moved in and stretched out her hand to reach out to a button but couldn't get to it because the elevator was crowded.
"Please, can you help me press the button there? I'm heading to the 5th floor, please. "she said to a middle aged man and he stared at her, seeing the innocent expression on Olivia's face, he reached out for a button with a smile.
"Thank you sir "she grinned and bowed slightly.
She adjusted her glasses and touched her pig tail then her grin widened. The elevator halted at the 5th floor and walked out towards the office, she was already hearing her name all over.
"Olivia, where is my spaghetti?" Tina, one of the employees yelled out from a corner, impatiently.
"l'm coming "she yelled out, heading towards Tina's cubicle.
"Here, it is "she stated as she handed one of bags over to Tina. Tina's lips turned up into a scowl and she turned to Olivia.
"Jeez! It is already cold! How am I supposed to eat this, huh? "Tina grouched, her expression discerning diagust.
"How you are gonna eat it is your f*cking business "A voice spoke up as footsteps approached them. Olivia turned around to see Zoey.
She had long hazel hair and brown eyes, you could tell she was burning with rage. She got to where they stood and crossed her arms.
"Zoey, please don't do anything silly. l will take care of it "She pleaded, silently, poking her arm but Zoey paid deaf ears, pushing her hands away.
"Olivia has no problem with how you are gonna have your lunch. I won't condone you bossing her around like she's your slave or something. Now, give her the money for getting you the spaghetti you asked for "lsabel stated as she glared at Tina.
"Who said I won't give her the money? "she scoffed as she transferred the money through her phone. Then she hissed and walked away.
"Olivia, stop this your attitude of pleasing people before you get into big trouble. Tina would have use that as an excuse not to pay you and l'm sure you'd agree with second thoughts cause you're also ...! "She halted on her words and released a breath.
"I'm sorry "Olivia pouted.
"There you go again. Always apologizing when you obviously didn't do anything wrong.Jeez..when are you finally going to give up this silly attitude of yours? It's seriously beginning to annoy me for real! "She blurted out, blatantly and held her nose.
Then she walked away, afterwards. lmmmediately, she stepped out, she started hearing her name once again. Olivia!
Zoey Holloway was always known for standing up for Olivia since she's too naive.
"Where is my coffee?? "
"I am coming! "
"My bagel, Olivia! "
"Coffee! "
"Olivia, help print this paper "
"Okay "
"Olivia, help send this paper to the manager's office "
" Sure "
I guess this is my work as an administrative assistant.
It was a scene as former employees gathered at the lobby of the company.
Mr Noel came downstairs to calm the former employees as they sat on the floor with their quilts kept at a corner and noodles saying they will sleep at the office until Mr. Aidan, the CEO attend to them.
"This isn't proper. Let's discuss this in a more proper way "He tried to calm them down but they paid deaf ears to him as they laughed, foolishly, amongst themselves.
"I need to call Mr. Aidan. This is really getting out of our control "Aidan's assistant, Timothy said from a corner. He picked up his phone and dialled Aidan's number.
"Hello? Mr Aidan, they refuse to leave and they are attracting other employees in the company "he complained, bitterly.
"Okay "Aidan stated and he disconnected the call.
"Hello? Hello? "Timothy repeated and looked at his phone. He creased his brows realizing Mr. Aidan disconnected the call.
Everyone's attention on the scene was diverted as Aidan walked slowly but majestically down the stairs, towards them. The noise died down.
The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop on the floor. He halted and looked around.
"Everybody, leave except those that is demanding for an explanation and you, Timothy lock the front door on your way out "he spoke out with a hoarse voice.
"M..me? "Timothy blinked and Aidan raised his brows at him. "Right away, sir "he bowed, slightly and walked away.
Aidan walked to the couch and sat down. He extended his hand to have a look at his watch.
"You have five minutes to state the reasons why you should not be sacked "He stated, coldly and they stared at each other.
"Well ... Mr. Aidan, you have replaced us with robots and machines, we are precious employees and you can't find others as capable as us, you see "A middled aged man, the eldest amongst them, started and Leo scoffed.
"Mechanical arms produces thirty soaps in two minutes, can you do that? "He asked and entwined his fingers.
"Instead of complaining about the decisions of the headquarters, propose plans and show them your worth "
Then he looked down at his watch and smirked. "Your time is up "With that, he stood up and walked away. The employees left afterwards.
"Boss, why didn't you tell them that you have been the one helping them so that they could stay up to this time? " Timothy started.
"Would that change anything?? "Aidan answered. "Don't argue about unnecessary things and focus on necessary things "he added and sighed.
"By the way, have you prepared what I asked you to prepare?? "
"Yes sir "Timothy affirmed.
"Okay, I will go and visit my grandma. She invited me for lunch "
"Okay sir "

"Aidan, you are here "she smiled as she extended her arms for an embrace and Aidan hugged her.
"Grandma! "he said and kissed her at both cheeks.They sat down afterwards.
"What would you like to eat?? "His grandma asked with a huge grin.
"Anything my grandma orders is suitable because she's the best "Aidan stated, sheepishly.
She chuckled as she handed the menu over to the waiter and laid her orders.
"Grandma, l got something specially for you "Leo said as he brought out a jewelry pack. He opened it and the silver stones shined brightly on Grandma's face.
A gasp escaped her lips, "Wow, it looks so valuable. Hold on a sec ...you gave me these to prevent me from nagging you, isn't it? "She asked, raising her brows at Aidan and he itched his nape of his neck, nervously.
"I'm not getting any younger, you know. I need a grand child "
"But you also have Max to tell all these "Aidan half-shrugged.
"There you go again, always changing the topic. Will you get married or not?? "Grandma half- yelled and he nodded.
"Of course, l will. I will get married to Anna "he smiled.
"Aidan, you and Anna can barely get to see each other. You only contact on phone "she shook her head.
"We also call on video calls which is also the same as seeing each other "Aidan smiled..
"Aidan, how can it be the same?? "
"But grandma, I am not complaining" He chipped in and his grandma sighed.
"Grandma, I will get married, okay?. Now eat before the food gets cold "
She sighed, ruefully, staring at her obstinate grandson.

"Olivia, go home and continue tomorrow "One of her colleague said as she headed for exit of the office.
"Okay "She stated and her colleague walked out. But she continued working.
Shortly , the cleaner walked in with a bucket and mop.
"Olivia, you're still here. Won't you go home? "
"l will just ... "Her voice trailed off as she checked her phone and remembered that she had a date with Mark.
"i need to leave right now "She stood up, packed up the documents and hurried out.
Mark was at the park waiting for Olivia when a lady passed, he licked his lips but the lady glared at him and scoffed.
Olivia ran towards Mark, panting.
"Mark, I'm sorry I came late. l had extra work to do in the office and you know .. "she tried explaining.
"It's alright, Olivia. No need to be sorry, a boyfriend should wait for his girlfriend, right? "
"So how can I make it up to you? "Olivia pressed her lips together.
"Let us go to my house and I will cook for you then you will leave tomorrow "he smiled, sheepishly.
"Mark, my mom warned me over again not to stay overnight at a guy's house .. "
"Until you are married "he interrupted her, completing her statement and scoffed.
Her eyes averted when she saw the road billboard displaying a romantic trip on a cruise ship.
"Olivia, I think we should better .. "Mark was saying .
She intruded "I think we should go on the trip to Venice on that cruise ship. It would be nice, don't you think? "

My voice seemed to scare her, and her light-fearing eyes suddenly widened and she kept moving to the corner. The only voice in the quiet art room was her fear-filled voice, "No...please...go away...don't come close to me." She was afraid of me? I hadn't even spoken to her before, what was she afraid of?
