7. Back to Business

I entered the building with my head held high, clutching my suitcase tightly on my hands. Heads turned to me as I passed by the employees on the lobby. Reaching the elevator, I took a step in and the doors closed. Inside there was two women and one man, looking at me oddly and whispering to each other. The ride to the 20th floor was a lot slower than it felt before. When the doors opened, I immediately stepped out and went to my desk.

I set to work and ignored all the stares and whisperings around me.

"They were on the party together?"

"Yes, then suddenly all the lights went out and masked men came in and shot all over the place. It's a miracle they're still alive."

"I don't think so. Maybe someone helped them?"

"Who? Jackson? I heard he came with our boss."
