He sat at his desk and looked at their files. Impressive. Very impressive. This night would almost certainly gain him two more assassins, which he would need for what he was building up to. He leant back in his chair and smiled to himself. He was already very proud of his fellow employees. Now, with the two new girls, he would be extremely powerful. He looked up, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat. There was an unrecognisable silhouette of a face, and long hair. But it was upside down?
"you look pleased."
He sighed in relief.
"Sugar, what are you doing?" he said as the light illuminated her face, and her long, deep purple hair.
"I'm hanging upside down from the ceiling and watching you. Isn't that a little obvious?"
"I meant what are you doing here?"
Sugar detached herself from the rope and sat down on his desk. She flattened her skirt down and brushed her top off.
"err.. We have a meeting, remember? You said it was important, so I came early."
"yes, but you've come two hours early. The meeting was at six."
"yeah, about that; y'see, I have dinner at six, so.."
"then you should of eaten before you got here, idiot. I am not rescheduling the meeting for you."
"but boss, I'm starving!"
He sighed.
"there is a jar of cookies downstairs. You can have them. Just get me a coffee while you're there."
Sugar brightened up as she slid off the desk.
"OK! Thanks!"
She hurried away. He smiled as he watched her skip down the stairs. Then, he put his feet up on the desk and waited for the others to arrive.
