Can we go home now?""Ok then, just give me a few more minutes," he said as he walked towards his table with assistant Zane.He didn't ask me why I was with Leonard in his office. That was strange…maybe he'll ask me when we're going back home."Amelia? Are you hungry?" My dad said, still engrossed in the papers assistant Zane gave him."Yes I am…I'll eat when we get home""I'm not sure I'll be able to finish my work on time,""But dad-"I heard footsteps approaching, I turned my head as I watched Leonard walk in.What was he doing here now?"Mr. Johnson, you're still

Mr. Johnson asked."Oh right, I forgot-"At this moment my stupid assistant barged into my office."Boss, The executives have been waiting!"I rubbed my temples, I needed to change the pin of my office door immediately."Schedule the meeting for another day, I'm occupied right now""But sir- wait, are you still wearing the coffee-stained trouser?"

I looked around for another elevator to enter… finally, I saw another elevator by the end of the hallway.I quickly made my way to that elevator, but it had a different color from the other elevators. It was a black elevator…I hit the button to the last floor…'ding' the elevator door opened and I covered my mouth with my hands as I gasped, making my cup of coffee fall on the floor…I was shocked!"Miss Amelia?"
