Daisy noticed that her phone had stopped playing the music she assigned it to. She frowned, wondering what put a stop to it.

She kept the fork she was using to eat on the plate, got up and headed to the room where her phone was. By this time, she could hear her phone ringing. "Who dares disturb my peace this early afternoon." She said, in a loud voice.

As she left the kitchen to the room to go check out the caller, she heard the doorbell ring.

"Oh damn it." She whispers, under her breath and moves to the sitting room instead.

"Hold on, hold on. I'll be right there. Please, the bell is just too loud, can you stop!" She yelled, hoping whoever was at the door would listen, but the reverse was the case.

She got to the door, unlocked it forcefully and yanked it open.

"Ohh! Stacy." She said excitedly, now reducing her voice and acting so gentle.

Stacy walks past me into the sitting room and sits down. "Seriously, are you deaf now? Geez, like I literally stayed out for almost 10 minutes even after knocking and using the bell. Damn, what's with you today? She asked, making gestures with her hands as she spoke, like she was giving a presentation.

Daisy not knowing if she was annoyed or not kept mute, to watch her reaction to avoid making the issue worse.

Stacy removed her shoes and sighed lightly in deep relief. "Ohh, that was really painful. Gosh. Sometimes I wish I can go barefoot in the office. This is tough." She complained to no one in particular.

"Sorry about that. But, I guess you'll have to bear this for a little while, because this is just Monday. You have the rest of the week to go to work. Maybe, you'll have to change it, for something more comfortable." Daisy opined.

Stacy sighed. "That's the problem." She said, hissing loudly. "I can only wear heels to the office because I need to appear classy. I'm really getting tired of it."

"You don't have a choice now, do you?" Daisy asked in a more calmer tone. She wished she had a job at all, would she be complaining about what she is being asked to wear? Not when it makes her look like she's a rich working class lady.

"I wish I do have a choice seriously. I'm glad my boss is not so tough. That's one of the reasons I vehemently refused transferring from my department to a different one. Some of these top workers think they have made it in life by bossing people around."

"Hahahaha. That's very normal really. You might do same when you're in their shoes as well, so don't blame them so much." Daisy replied.

She shrugged lightly, then turned towards me

Daisy abruptly, like she just remembered something.

Daisy stared back at her, like, what is it? Using her

body gestures.

"Yeah, uhm, how about the job interview you went for? Stacy asked, letting go of what she was doing and kept staring at her like she was expecting something new this time.

"What about it? Daisy asked, not ready to bring up the fact that she flopped her job interview again, this time, the fact that it was evident that it was all het fault made it quite difficult for her to spill it out.

Confused, Stacy shook her head. "What do you mean? You, you didn't get the job? She asked, wide eyed.

Daisy nodded casually at Stacy, then walked to the sofa and sat right across her. She knew Stacy would feel bad for her and maybe try to make her happy by offering to lend her some of her fancy dresses, or perhaps offer to take her out to see a movie or buy food for her, just to make Daisy feel like nothing happened. But, Daisy felt she was really over all that. She had gotten so used to it that it has turned like a constant ritual. She wanted something good for herself, something that would make her feel like her days in college weren't a waste.

"Oh no. Not again." Stacy said, giving that unpleasant look. "What happened this time around? Did you miss a question? We practiced almost all night? What got bad this time? She asked in total disappointment in her voice.

Daisy shrugged lightly, not even knowing what to say or how to say it. "It's past already girl. I just, I just." She stopped talking, trying not to cry as she could feel the tears forming in her eyes already.

She came to where Daisy was sitting and sat beside her, holding her left hand gently and tapping her calmly on her back.

"Hey, it's okay alright. It's gonna be fine. I know we've said this exact words a lot but, I know something big will definitely come." She whispered in Daisy's ears, to relieve her of the pains in her heart.

"Stacy, I'm tired of waiting for so long. It's so disheartening and frustrating. I have tried what I can do, but it looks like what I'm doing will all go down to the drain. What do I do? I'm slowly losing it? Daisy said, sobbing uncontrollably.

Stacy tried to calm her down, but it wasn't going as she wanted it. Daisy was really down in tears and pouring her out heart out to her, but there was nothing she could do about it.

"Daisy, Daisy come on. You know crying won't solve the problem right now. Let's figure out a way to work this out. Please stop crying." Stacy pleaded, not comfortable with the way her friend was acting.

"What do you think I should do? I'm thinking of going back to that restaurant to know if Mr. Joash would take me in. At least, I was making little cash there and I could add to the bills of this out. It's not..."

"Stop it Daisy." Stacy cut in with annoyance and got up. "Have I complained a single day about the bills? Have I ever? Haven't I made you feel so at her home ever since you joined me?

Daisy nodded in tears, as she used the back of her palm to wipe it.

"Daisy come on. You are my friend and I love you seriously. I don't want you to feel like you are a burden to me. Honestly, since you came here I've become more alive. I would come home from work and have someone interesting to talk to. You make me feel more lively than my usual self and I can't trade it for anything." Stacy confessed, becoming very emotional.

Daisy stopped crying by this time. "I'm sorry Stacy. I know all of this, but I feel you'll understand better if you were in my shoes. I want to be responsible for what I do, for my bills, for my siblings, for my mother. I want to be that lady my mother would be proud of, I'm not asking for too much." She answered calmly.

Stacy nodded and wiped the little tears that had fallen on her cheeks. She cleared her throat and spoke. "You're right Daisy. Perhaps, I'd understand better if I'm in that position. So tell me, what do you think you want to do this time? I will gladly give you the support you might need."

"Well, I'm thinking of taking back the job at the restaurant, if it's still vacant." Daisy repliy without thinking about it.

Stacy frowned when she said that. She didn't like that kind of job and felt Daisy was too big for that job and it isn't worth trying. "I don't want that for you, say something else."

"Come on, I have been idle since I stopped it, I can't even think of something else. It's the easiest I can get around here. Or, do you have one for me? Daisy asked.

"Well." Stacy said and paused for a while, before speaking up again. "A job came in today, but I don't think you can actually do it. I have a slot for it though, but, damn, it's quite, urghhh!

"What job is that? Daisy asked, in curiosity.

"You know Mr. Dash, the CEO of this company I work with.."

Daisy cuts in, "the tough one that hardly smiles at people? The sadist?

"Exactly. The stone hearted sadist, damn! That man is the most scariest person I have ever, ever seen. His presence alone gives me goosebumps. I swear that I have almost wet myself the day he mistook me for one of his direct staff. I'm just so glad I don't work directly under him, I would have resigned myself."

"Geez, is he that bad? Hmm, I would love to meet that monster of a human." Daisy said in amazement.

"He's that bad girl. I can't even stand him for a minute. He's that bad."

"So, what about him? Daisy asked, inquisitively, wanting to know why she brought him up.

"Well uhm. Today, his contract with his secretary Joan, expired. She, I mean Joan said she does not want to renew the contract with CEO Dash, so she left after getting her end contract pay. So, as it stands now, Mr. Dash the sadist doesn't have a secretary and he's in dire need for one." Stacy finished.

"What do you think? Should I try my luck this time around? Perhaps, I might be lucky." Daisy suggested smiling calmly to herself.

"Daisy, the problem isn't about the job, it's about the person you'd be working with. Guess what?

"What?

"He changes secretaries every three months and since two years and few months I've worked with him, none of them have worked more than one contract. They all disappear after their contract expires." Stacy explains

"Disappear? Like, they do not exist again or something? Like they get killed or what? Daisy asked in shock and fear.

"No no no, not that. I mean, they never come back for a second contract. That's a proof that, the man is just so evil. Now, if you're really planning on working with that type of a being, you should be ready to do all sort of rubbish."

"When you say rubbish, what exactly do you mean? Can you give me examples? Daisy asked.

"Like, sleeping over at the office alone, just to make sure you complete the day's job before resuming for the next day. Because, he does not tolerate seeing any unfinished jobs." Stacy answered.

"And what if he does?

Stacy widened her gaze like she had seen a ghost in one corner. "He'll break your neck and feed you to the swine."

Daisy frowned, knowing she was playing with her mind. "Come on, be serious. This is business we are talking about right now."

"You mean you are serious about going to take the job? Stacy asked, sitting down close to Daisy and staring at her in shock.

"Yes, I don't mind. What's the duration again? What was that you mentioned?

"Three months." Stacy answered less concerned.

"Cool, not bad for a beginner. So, what is the pay like? Any idea?

"Well, it's actually the pay that attracts a lot of them who have worked with him. But, just few weeks of working for him, they are screaming their lungs out."

"Just answer me Stacy."

"Okay okay. It's $2000." Stacy answered.

"Oh my goodness. That's twice your pay. Damn, that's like five times of my salary in Mr. Joash restaurant. I think I'll take it, I'm not going to sleep on this."

"Well, be ready to pay the price though. Anyway, that's weekly pay, not monthly."

"Are you f**king kidding me? Daisy exclaimed in amazement. Totally flabbergasted by the amount of money she mentioned.

"I'm not. Since, you are interested in it, you can go for it. Meanwhile, don't bother asking for help when you start facing a lot in there, because, I'll be busy doing my job." Stacy replied seriously.

Jumping up from the sofa with force, Daisy started dancing around the sitting room with so much excitement and happiness.

"Gosh Stacy, I feel I'm going to get this job. Oh my goodness, I can see myself swimming in money, damn damn damn. Mom would be so happy for me when I finally get this job Stacy. You know, I wouldn't have to be avoiding mom's calls again. I will have some cash to pay for Janet's classes and for Daniel's school as well. Oh my goodness, I'm definitely getting this job." Daisy said hitting the air and screaming happily at the top of her voice.

"Are you sure you are ready for this job? Hope you can fulfill all the conditions that would be required of you, right? Don't forget who you're dealing with, the sadist we all hate. Wow, I can't believe you'd like to work with our enemy. Well, that's the choice you made for yourself. Don't forget how I tried to talk you out of it."

"Stacy, Stacy. Let me try it come on. Don't be so negative about it. There's a possibility that he might even change when I start working with him, you know I'm that kind of a person." Daisy said with the idea to melt Stacy's heart.

"Hahahaha. That won't happen even in your dreams, so don't just go there. Anyway, I've told you the part I know well about him, just make sure not to do anything stupid when you start facing your bad moments with him."

"I've heard you, I've heard you. I'll try my best not to do anything stupid. So, uhm, can I apply for the job tomorrow morning? What do you think?

Stacy paused for a moment, then replied. "Well, yeah. I think that will be just the best for you. Since the lady's contract expired today, the job hunt could start from next week. So, if you go tomorrow, you'll be at a more advantage than the rest of your competitors."

"Hmmm, is that so? That means, I'll prepare for tomorrow then. But, why should the job hunt start next week instead of this week, if the CEO really needs a secretary as you said? Daisy asked, quite confused.

"Not much of a big deal. The CEO gives all the employees a slot each to find someone within this week. The truth is that, no one has ever come from the employees. Of course, we all know how he behaves and no one would actually love to bring anyone to that position. As a matter of fact, we'll have to act like we don't know each other, because, I won't want anyone to term me a bad person when they find out that, you're my friend." Stacy finished.

"Hahahaha. Oh my gosh, that was so hilarious. Really? You know I can be crazy at times. Even if you decide that you'll pretend not to know me, I'll make them know." Daisy said, laughing uncontrollably.

"You silly girl. Anyway, we are likely not to stumble on eachother, because, my office is quite different from where you'll be. Remember, you'll be working very closely with Mr Dash the sadist."

"Whatever! Just help me with the documents I should need for tomorrow, so I don't miss out."

"That won't be a problem."

Stacy listed out all the documents she would need for the job application. Stating that it usually takes about two days for the job application to be reviewed, so that means that in two days, Daisy should be expecting to return for a job interview.

That evening, Daisy prepared all the documents Stacy mentioned and made sure that they were all intact for the next day. Stacy gave her one of her fancy classic wear, so she can look presentable and with high taste to whoever she would submit the job application to.

    Daisy woke up that morning feeling excited and more relaxed than she was the previous day. She had the feeling that she was going to get this job and she has never felt this way before.She had to remind herself that she was only going to submit her job application letter and get information on when she would return for the interview, so she doesn't get disappointed if something bad happens, though she doesn't pray for that to. Stacy on the other hand left quite earlier than Daisy, as that was what her job warranted her to do daily. She wished her friend a successful job application and promised to give her a treat if she eventually gets the job as a means to support her. At exactly 8 o'clock that Wednesday morning, Daisy took her bag with her file containing all the necessary documents and dashed out of the house to start her day with another job hunt.

    Daisy took the bold steps to walk into that office, as she could feel her legs trembling underneath her. It took a lot of energy to push the door open and she wondered why the door was that hard, perhaps, that was just her being nervous and anxious. She shivered as her first foot stepped into the office. Some part of her in a big way, wanted to turn around and run away as fast as she could and damn the consequences, forget about the pay, forget about the job, forget about the sweet rates. She had never felt this way before. She felt that it got scarier, the closer she went. The other part of her waved it off and convinced herself that the fear was only based on the rumour she might have heard in the past and not based on reality. She had to remind herself what she stood to have as a secretary of the CEO and what she could achieve with the title alone. So, with boldness, she walked into that office, shoulders raised up in utmost courage, face focused and ready to tear down any quest

    It was noon, the weather was a bit cool as compared to the previous day. Daisy decided to go for shopping with the money she received from the SABS company. It took her aback as she wasn't expecting anything until two weeks time, seems this was her dream job after all, or so she thought. Although, she had goosebumps each time she recalled her encounter with the CEO, Mr. Dash. The awkward silence that always enveloped every vicinity he entered or he stayed in. She knew something was definitely wrong and she hoped she'd be able to adapt to whatever condition she found herself in, in the future, while working with him. She had heard a lot of bad remarks from Stacy, even before she considered finding a job in the company. She never heard a single story about him that had happy endings. Still, at that point, she had no choice than to accept whatever came her way.She was $1,000 rich today, which used to be more than three months of her swear or even more. She'd gotten that in only o

    She stood In front of the company and said a little prayer. The previous day, she was so bold and courageous, walking into the company like she had an affiliation with them. This morning, she felt like she had the whole world on her shoulders and she needed to carry it without faltering.Today would mark the beginning of her luxury or sufferings or whatever it may be. She couldn't tell what she'd encounter when she got there, but she was ready to face the little she had prepared for. Or so she thought.It was few minutes to the stipulated time that was agreed that she resumed work. So, she walked into the building, heads high, ready to conquer. As soon as she got to the office, which would be hers, starting that day, she saw a file on the table that contained a list of some daily activities that she needed to work on. She reported for work online and sat down comfortably on the chair, her chair. It was like a dream come true for her. The room was perfectly furnished. It had w

    She returned home looking frustrated and famished. She was so worn out and fatigued that she lay on the couch for over twenty minutes. First day at work, but it felt like she had been in slavery since forever. After a while, she carried herself up from the couch and headed to the bathroom. She noticed that the room looked so untouched, which meant that her friend wasn't back.Daisy had returned home by some minutes past 6pm while the normal closing time was 4pm. Stacy should have been back by now, she thought. She had never missed coming home on time, except she travelled. Daisy searched for her phone at that moment and immediately she caught hold of it, she dialed the number. At the first ring, there was no answer. Her heart began to race faster than usual, so she calmed her nerves and tried again. "Hey Stacy, where are you? I have been..." "Oh, I'm at the door already, you'll see me now, alright." The call ended abruptly, she dropped the phone and disappea

    It was a really chilly evening, Mrs. Kute, also known as Rachel, hurried home to get the house in order so the wind doesn't affect her kitchen specifically. She had a loose covering at the top and tried to manage it as much as she could till she could take hold on some cash to give it the repairs it desperately needed. "Oh no, not again. Please, give me a little more time and I will get you fixed alright. I know I have promised you that a lot of times, but this time it is special." She mumbled audibly to no one in particular but to the ceiling like it had ears.She placed a chair and climbed on it, so her hands could get to where she wanted. She kept muttering words to herself and hissed lightly. Luckily, she was able to tame it and the wind also subsided a little bit, which made it very much fairer for her. She climbed down slowly and sat on the chair for a while. She complained to no one, soliloquizing. "How can I do this alone. I am really tired of all t

    It was a bright Saturday morning. The birds chirped synchronically on the trees as the trees danced beautifully to the rhythm of the gentle breeze. The rays of the sun fell on her face and she stretched her body lazily. "Good morning." She heard from behind her. She knew instantly who had adjusted the curtains. "Finally, she wakes."Daisy smiled calmly still stretching her body. "Good Morning Stacy." She answered back, laying emphasis on the phrase. "I thought you wouldn't wake again. I mean, it's almost noon." Stacy said, checking out some outfits in her wardrobe. Daisy placed her face of the pillow clutching it tightly. "Ouchhh! She winced "It's been awhile I had a well balanced sleep. I felt like I was in a new world."Stacy laughed casually. "Sorry." She said, trying not to make her feel bad.

The truck carrying some of the new purchased properties arrived with their agents to help offload them. Everywhere seemed busy and quite rowdy, till about a few hours later, towards the evening.

In no time, the house became quiet when the agents and other workers left, leaving Mrs. Rachel with her sons, Maxwell, Daniel and Jacob.They returned from their apartment the previous day to help out with the relocation and packing in. All thanks to Daisy, they were able to move out from their old house to the new place, which was lively and more suitable to live in.

    She unlocked the door, singing happily as she sauntered into the house, clutching her bag and a shopping package Nathan had gotten for her. Apparently, she had said yes to his proposal, so they were officially a thing. She sighted Stacy from the sitting room and hurried over to help her out. "Oh my goodness! She said loudly, almost in a scream. What happened to you? Why are you on the floor? Daisy asked very much concerned about her.Stacy limped slightly after getting up, with the help of Daisy. "I actually slipped few minutes ago and when I heard you, I became too lazy to get up." She lied. Daisy noticed the bruise on her forehead and wondered what could have really happened. "Stacy, your forehead, what happened to you? She asked, touching there lightly.Stacy immediately moved away slowly from her and covered her face with her palm. "Daisy, I said I'm fine. I only slipped. I guess I hit my head on the table at the process of falling." She replied harshly, not want

    Sitting in front of his laptop in his room which was partly dark, with only a gasoline lamp that lit the room. He stared at the laptop, fascinated by what he was seeing. He grabbed a pack of popcorn sitting on the table in front of him, then sat back to chew. He stared at the laptop for a while marvelled at the description of his new assignment.He had been asked to track a particular lady and keep tabs on her, find out everything about her and everyone connected to her. It was funny to him that two of his clients were paying differently to make use of that same woman. His job was to work for all of his clients, despite the work demands, as far as it came with a very good pay. That was Lomar, the hitman.His parents had abandoned, rather, disowned him when he was still a teenager.

    She grabbed her work pad and started going through the tasks. She noticed that most of the tasks she left unattended to had been taken care of. She was really glad and grateful to whoever helped her. Thinking about it, she wondered who could have done that. CEO Dash would never in his entire life handle anything that concerned her, not after wishing her dead, she sighed. "Hold on, what if he hired someone else to replace me? She gasped, as she came to the realisation that she was easily replaceable. "Oh no, did he call me to retract my contract? Her heart skipped a millionth times.Though she wished to do away with the job, deep down, she wanted it. The job had given her access to the kind of life she had only dreamt of. She sent money home weekly each time she got her pay and had been able to save some enormous amount of money like never before. She had about five more weeks to go.

She replied, still on bed.Stacy stared at her, confused by the remark she had made. "What do you mean by that? Daisy got up from the bed and headed to the bathroom. "You were noisy." She answered, dragging her legs. Realising what Daisy meant she apologised. "I'm really sorry D, I didn't mean to." She said loudly so she could hear.

    CEO Dash dash was seated in his private lounge in his house, a glass of wine in his hand. He sipped calmly, as he thought about how to work on something that had been bothering him. He had asked Nathan and some of his trusted allies to help him out, but all had proved abortive. He knew they had done a good job, but needed something much better than the casual responses he had been getting. It had been several weeks since he heard from his mother. His other siblings had said the same thing when he had called to complain to them. Each time he called, he would always be redirected to voicemail and he got scared. He needed to see his mother, she was the one he could easily share his ordeal with whenever he was having any issues whatsoever.

As usual, the roads were less busy than the week days, since a lot of persons In the area preferred to be indoor than leave the comfort of their home when it's not work. Stacy was dressed already and ready to bounce. She had decided to go shopping that morning, to restock the house as a surprise, because Daisy was scheduled to be released from the hospital that faithful day. She was so excited to have her friend back that she had planned a bunch of surprises. She locked the door properly, then turned the keys again to confirm she actually did so, properly. Hitting the road, she flagged a taxi and headed to the supermarket close by. She had a list of things she put down she was going to get, especially items she knew Daisy would love.

    Mr. Shaw stared at the magazine bluntly, showing no detectable facial expression, as he puffed the tobacco occasionally. Another glance at the next column of the magazine, he frowned, displeased by what he had just read."Is something meaningful no longer happening around here? No catchy headlines, no interesting stories about rise in stocks, collapse of a company, rise of the victorious one. Every single thing looks so predictable and it disgusts me." He lamented to no one in particular since he was the only one in his private office.He kept checking the pages one after the other, but was not satisfied with whatever he was seeing. "I miss the days when I still was young and vibrant. I mean, every week, I birthed new headlines for the people. Whether directly or indirectly. The current youngsters are too lenient with themselves." He complained.He flipped to the last page of the magazine, which after he had gone through, he tossed it fiercely on the floor.

    It was drizzling and was about to start raining heavily when she got to the house. She had just returned from the hospital after her second visit to see Daisy just as she had earlier promised.

She stared at it for a while, wondering if she had left it open that morning while leaving for work, but she couldn't remember exactly. After a furtile thinking, she overlooked it, then she went into the house and locked the door properly.
