X Company - 09:00 a.m.

"Eko!!"

A blonde-haired man shouted across the room. All of the employers in X company turned their head to him. They wondered what's the matter with their superior from screaming like that in the morning.

Eko took a long sighed and got up from his seat. There was a long silent in the room. Everyone looked at him with pitifull look. They knew once their superior shouted like that all what they could do just prayed to God and hoped they wouldn't get fired at that moment.

Eko approached that man who sat in his big comfortable chair. In his table there was a name tag made from wood. It was written "JOHN" with capitals.

"Is there something wrong, Mr. Anderson?" He smiled - trying to look nice.

"Do you need to ask that after you see this face?!" John emphasized his word.

"I am sorry, sir." Eko apologized.

I can see it of course. Do you think I am blind?

"Hhh..." John sighed. "Do you have an idea why I called you?"

Eko shook his head.

Of course I was not.

John took something from his desk and threw it on the table. It was a report. The report which was made by Eko yesterday.

"What is it?" John asked.

"A report." Eko answered.

"Eko, how long have you been working here?"

"Around three months, sir."

John banged his table. Making many of gasp sound in the room escaped. Eko blinked twice and stared at his superior.

"Three months?!" He shouted. "Three months and you made a report like this?!"

"I... I just went with your intro-"

"You dare to say that?! So it was my fault?!" John pointed out his finger.

Eko kept his mouth closed.

"Now remake it and don't you dare to go home until I say so."

"Well... Well... what's wrong in here?"

Everyone turned their head and saw an old man in suit stood in front the door. He smiled and walked in - approaching John and Eko.

Everybody in the room stared at him. They wisphered. What was that man's bussiness in their section? Why people like him came here?

John opened his mouth. He was too shocked to see who it was. Different with Eko who just stared at him.

You must be joking....

#flashback

Eko froze after he heard a loud bang from the gun. He couldn't move his body even only a bit. His mind was blown away. All what he could do just stared at the man with his mouth opened wide.
