Lost But Not Forgotten

CHAPTER 8

Destiny's P.O.V

My operation went well...but the doctor advised me to go on weekly checkups because they couldn't heal me properly. There was this hole in my heart that couldn't be filled fully because if it did then i would die immediately. So weekly checkups and healthy food etc...

After that Nora and Katey dropped me home at about 7pm and i had some rest.

Now i'm fully awake and it's just 11:30pm.

I slowly go downstairs and get something to eat..looks like Nora cleaned up the place where i dropped the glass. Getting my bowl of ice cream, i sit on the couch turning on Netflix. I missed two episodes of "Riverdale", so i continue from where i left.

---------------------------------------------------

Next morning was work. Doctor advised me to stay in, but if i felt like going i could. So as you guessed, i went.

Reaching my office, Raymond came in with pamphlets in his hands.

"Good morning, Destiny" He said smiling.

"Good morning, Ray. What's up?"

"Well.. did you forget that it's our company's 60th anniversary this Thursday?"

"Oh, yeah. I totally forgot"

"No worries, i'll keep you updated, but first to let you know, you are giving an opening speech"

"Wait,what??!" I stood confused.

"Yep. And since it's the anniversary, our boss said that we will have another holiday this Friday because on Thursday it's only party"

"You've gotta be kidding me, a speech? No way!"

"Yes way, boss already signed you up for it. For any changes ask him" He says and gets out of my cabin.

I hell know not to change anything with the plan for the ceremony, because if i did, i would loose my job.

I sit on my chair and look out of my window. Life can't suck anymore.

After the horrible news in the morning, i didn't talk to anyone properly. For your information, i'm not a people person that's why i'm freaking out so much. Walking out of my cabin i grab a cup of coffee and see Ray coming towards me.

"So you coping good with the tragic news?" He says sarcastically.

"Trying my best.....You know it's not fair for me to say a speech. Someone of the high level should do the speech"

"Yes. You are in the high level. What else do you need" he says grabbing a coffee for himself.

"I can't do it man. Not a public person, for your information"

He eyes me for a long time then says "Maybe not, but you have to do it, he trusts you" Then leaves for his office.

I stare at him blankly for a while. Then turn back and go to my office.

After two hours of doing some files, i go for lunch when i hear my phone buzzing. It was Katey. Shit!.

I start up with a casual sentence not wanting to listen to her taunts.

"Hey, Katey"

"You don't Katey me! You were suppose to stay home today! Why are you at work?" She says angrily.

"Well.... i can't just stay home when i'm not sick. That's just lame" I say.

"I don't know anything , you are coming home now!"
