The alarm went off again. Ok fine! Am getting up now. Gina rolled out of bed. Her hangover was becoming more than she could deal with. It's 7 o'clock in the morning and if she doesn't hurry she will be late for work. Thinking about having to beat the traffic, she thought of taking the freeway. She never drives on the freeway because of the memories it ensued. Stepping into the shower she decided on a cold one this morning. As the shower beat on her body, the events of the night began to reel in her mind once again. After her sexual dissatisfaction, she drank the night away. Knowing very well that she did not drive herself home she tried to remember how she got home when it dawned on her that Travis drove her home. Travis was her assistant who with all he does has been in her good graces since the day he started working at Real Deal Records. Gina, being the second Vice President in charge is a woman with a success story. She started at Real Deal 3years ago as the Managing Director of Talent Recruiting. Her promotion came quickly when she was heard singing in one of the demo studios. Gina is not one for a show, but she loves music. Just like everything she enjoys, it's therapeutic.


Taking a quick shower, she decided to throw on a pantsuit. One that has already been ironed. Walking with much alacrity towards the parking lot of her apartment building, Gina decided to finish her dressing in the car. Approaching her vehicle, she realized that her new Honda Civic was no longer looking as hot as it did last month. She likes small cute cars, preferably Honda, and when she got this one, she was hoping she would not grow out of it. With a wincing lookover, she popped the trunk and put her bags in. Looking around for just a moment before unlocking her car doors she noticed the parking lot was somewhat empty. Apparently, she's the only one late for work today. 

She entered her car and adjusted her mirror long enough to see a Ferrari heading into her.  The collision was so sudden, she jerked forward in her seat, with her forehead hitting the steering wheel. Oh shit! What the fuck?!!! The driver of the other car came out as quickly as he could to attend to his injured party, the lovely and delicately dressed woman that he had been watching all along.

"Are you ok miss?""I'm fine, thank you. You didn't see me?""Am sorry. I misjudged the distance. My apologies. I will pay for everything. I am really sorry.""It's ok. Don't worry about it." 

Gina drove out of the parking lot with blood dripping on her white Chanel blouse. With a throbbing headache, she swears that she is going to kill anyone who pissed her off today.
