A foreign country

“You are just in time ma,” Please take your seat,” one of the flight attendant said the moment I got back onboard.I obeyed immediately and few minutes later we were in that air.I closed my eyes, forcing myself not to think of him and soon I was fast asleep.The landing announcement sounded foreign when I heard it I made it. I was really here.I stood at the edge of the airport terminal, the cool air brushing against my skin as the automatic doors whooshed open and shut behind me. People walked past me. Some people were hugging their loved ones. There was a sound of laughter, yelling and honking everywhere, but I just stood there, lost. My suitcase was by my side, but my mind was a thousand miles away.“What now?” I whispered to myself.I didn't even know where to turn, the right path to take. At that point, I think my brain left me, because I felt so confused.It had taken everything in me to board that plane. To leave Morgan behind. To convince myself I was doing the right thing.

A great beginning.

Marrissa's point of view I have no one. I can't call Andre. We have not spoken to each other since I left Spain.I can't trust Molly enough. Who knows she might be behind this? Morgan! He is the only one powerful enough to save me, but I definitely can not call him, not after how we ended things. Not after the way, I had left him at the gate and walked away with my chin high but my heart bleeding.“Calm down, Marrissa. "You are overthinking things. "This might be a prank,” I whispered to myself.“Yes, this is definitely a prank.” I tried steadying my breathing and relaxing But then, Luke started driving faster than before and his hands were moving over the dashboard.“Oh God! This is not a prank. "If really, I'm being kidnapped, please let Morgan be my kidnapper and not someone else,” I prayed.Crazy line of prayer, right? But, what would you have me pray for? After all, the devil you know is better than the angel you do not know.“Luke?” I asked again, more firmly this time. “Wher

A grand style of shopping

Marrissa's point of view I stepped out of the company with my heart still racing.Is this real? Everything that had happened so far seemed like a dream or something that could only happen in a fairyland.I could not believe it. Everything and everyone has been close to perfection.“This way miss Marrissa,” Samira said, and I looked up to her.She led me to the car and I got in without saying a word further.She drove in silence, but my mind kept asking lots of questions."Here we are, ma,” she announced, and when I raised my eyes,I gasped in awe."This is where we will be shopping today," Samira said with a smile.I got down and followed her lead.The boutique looked like something out of a celebrity Instagram post. It was all glossy floors, golden racks, and a smell that I could only describe as ‘rich people and new leather.’ I paused at the entrance, suddenly feeling out of place, but Samira marched in like she owned the place.“Well? "Come on!” she called, laughing when she saw

New Life. New friends

Marrissa's point of view "Thanks for today," I said, smiling before getting down from the car."Anytime darling," Samira replied. "See you by 7 pm," she added."Yes boss," I replied jokingly. She drove off after that and I went inside.I shut the door behind me and just stood there, my back was pressed against it, bags still hanging from my arms, and a stupid smile spreading across my face.I dropped the bags on the couch and walked to the mirror by the door and just stared at myself. New clothes. New job. "New life,” I whispered to myself.I pinched my arm just to be sure I was not dreaming.“Ow!” I yelped, rubbing the spot."It's not a dream,” I said, and laughed at myself for even doubting everything.This is real.“Samira had just dropped me off after taking me on the most insane shopping spree of my life — and now she wanted me to go out tonight and meet even more people?” The old me would have said no immediately. Make an excuse and end up in bed all day. I checked the time.

A huge project

Marrissa's point of viewI had to drag myself into a decent outfit and force a smile on my face.“The past is gone, Marrissa. "Focus on now and the future,” I said to myself.Then Samira’s message came in for the third time this morning."Heads up —something important is coming up now. Will fill you in when you arrive. See you soon!" “Something important?” I echoed.Was that supposed to be comforting? Because it was not.When I arrived at the company, the lobby was buzzing with activities.People in sharp suits moved quickly, whispering and tapping away furiously on tablets. A huge arrangement of fresh flowers that was not there the last time I came appeared at the entrance. Security guards stood taller, looking twice as serious.Samira found me by the elevators, and slightly bounced on her toes like she was holding a massive secret.“What’s going on?” I hissed.She just smiled and pressed the elevator button.“You will see.”The elevator opened, and before I could even step inside

A huge deal

Marrissa's point of view "Oh shit, we have just fifteen minutes to get back to the office," Tasha screamed.The rest of us exclaimed and hurried to our feet.The afternoon sun was hotter now, turning the glass walls of the building into a giant mirror. As we crossed the street back toward work, I realized my feet felt lighter and my heart too.I was not walking like a girl terrified of the Echelon Project anymore. I was walking like someone who had enough confidence to carry out the project."Remember," Samira said as we neared the revolving doors, tossing me a wink, "If you start getting nervous and confused, just text me a pancake emoji. Emergency backup will arrive."I laughed, feeling some of the old fear crack and fall away.As the others walked off toward their different departments, I lingered for a second in the lobby for a while to just breathe in the cool air. I started to feel I belonged here.I turned towards the elevator that leads to the floor where my office is

Gold stripe badge

Marrissa's point of view By the time I got back to my apartment, the second folder Mr. Adrian gave me had already started whispering threats from my bag.“You are doomed,” it seemed to hiss. “Say goodbye to sleep and your sanity.”I dropped my purse and opened the folder like a woman possessed.Inside it was a mind-numbing market analysis, a confusing logistical report, and a memo full of corporate jargon so dense it might as well have been ancient Greek.There was also a handwritten note at the top:“Impress me.”“Oh good. "No pressure,” I said with a frown.I tied my hair into a messy bun, chugged three cups of coffee, and braced myself for a long, brutal night.At exactly 7:42 PM, Samira texted me:Samira: “Are you alive? “Blink twice if yes.”I texted back:“I'm barely alive Sam, this folder is trying to kill me.”Samira: “Do you need snacks?” “I can airdrop a pizza.”Me; “Bless you, but no”. “I don't need food right now because this is WAR.”

Saturday morning

Marrissa's point of view I woke up the next day with sunlight streaming through the curtains, casting a warm glow across my room. The noise of the city outside was a comforting reminder that I was in a new place.It was Saturday. A day to relax.I stretched lazily on the bed, feeling the softness of the sheets against my skin. The air smelled faintly of lavender from the diffuser I had set up the night before.Deciding to make the most of the day, I slipped into comfortable clothes and tied my hair up. I put on some upbeat music—something with a rhythm that made cleaning feel less like a chore and more like a party. As the melodies filled the apartment, I moved from room to room, dusting, organizing, and tidying up.An hour into my cleaning spree, my phone buzzed with a notification. I wiped my hands on a towel and picked it up.It was a message from a hidden number: “How are you faring?”I stared at the screen, puzzled.“Who could this be?” Could it be Molly or Andre? But why use

First core planning meeting

Marrissa's point of view I spent Sunday indoors, preparing mentally and physically for tomorrow's work activities.Monday came and I dressed smartly for work. Today, I will attend my first core planning meeting.The Core Planning Team meeting was held on the thirty-fifth floor — the floor with actual glass walls, leather chairs, and a skyline view that made you feel both inspired and slightly nauseous at the same time.I held my new badge so tightly it nearly left an imprint on my palm.Samira had tried to coach me on the elevator ride up:"Okay, listen," she said in a hushed voice. You are brilliant, but you are also new to this. Some of those people there have been here for years. They are not going to throw you a party, Marrissa. Just... smile. Be polite. And don’t let Karen corner you."I frowned. " Who is Karen?"Samira widened her eyes. "You will know when you see her."Great. Cryptic warnings and mystery enemies. “This was fine,” I whispered.The elevator dinged, and w

New disturbing news

Marrissa's point of view I did say I was on fire yesterday right. Well, there was nothing hot in me right now as I stood in front of Me Adria, trying not to crumble to the ground."Miss Marrissa, I had not been hundred percent truthful to you and I think I should now."My stomach twisted.“What is he about to say?” I thought to myself."I didn't give you the entire information because I didn't want you scared or overwhelmed."My legs began to shake, suddenly too weak to carry the weight of my body."May I sit please?” I asked weakly."Oh please, do take your seat, “ he said, gesturing to a chair across from him.I sat down and placed my shaky hands on my lap.I didn't know why,but I was worried he wanted to say something bad. His nt facial expression didn't even make it any better.He wasn't smiling."First, I want to commend you again for your work so far, you have been incredibly good, but…. I'm afraid there is more to do"."You will be attending a meeting this afternoon with top e
