"Goodnight sweetie mommy loves you so much!" giving him a soft a kiss and I did make sure he's comfortable enough while sleeping. Hes so innocently sleeping in his crib. I turn on his monitor that attached in his bed and before I left the room I turn on dim light that has a moon and star gleaming over the room.

We stayed at Pamela house, After that day I saw a monster at my apartment it's been two weeks I've never get back at my apartment. And giving a thought of transferring to another apartment but it's another big steps for me. I don't have enough time and budget for it.
Luckyly, Pamela let me stay in her house because she has a medical mission somewhere in Lebanon in which,theres a war and it badly needed a lots of rescuer, backup doctors, and nurses especially paediatrician aide. Pamela decided to volunteer and help the victims.
I asked Mia to pick up and bring important stuff that we needed every time she comes to babysit joshua. We basically, move our stuff here, I can just decide when Pamela come back, for the meantime I need to work and save for it. Getting ready to work when I heard the door bell.
I peep in a door viewer, I saw Mia standing outside the front door. I quickly open the door and let her in. I happily greet her.
"Thank so much for coming Mia, I know it's your exam tomorrow. But I'm really need in the Call shelter." I apologize at her.
"No worries, Natalie I did bring my reviewer so I could review while waiting for you.
"OK, I need to head off now, anyway Josh's in bed, if he wakes up before I come back. Call me anytime if thereAnything happen,! OK?"
"Nathalie nothing happened, OK! You've been saying that for nth times!! Go! You're service is waiting for you" Mia shooing me.
After saying last words about locking the door and not letting anyone come in if there's a knock because I have a key.
I rest my head on the car seat, closing my eyes. "Mia must be right, I'm being paranoid!
We arrives at less than an hour, when Roger about to enter in the tall automatic gate, I saw a figure in a dark alley. I suddenly ask Roger to Lower his speed in driving!
I examine the figure, even in a darkness I can still see him! I "A dead Nightmare that Risen" how does it possible he alive after he shoot himself? I witnessed everything. Shiver started into my spine. I feel cold my hand getting sweaty.
"Did you know him Nathalie? Roger asked.
"Who? Pretending to get my stuff in the car,
"The guy outside?
"No"i answered
"He's kind of annoying, he keeps on coming and even banging the door!
"But why! I asked.
"He keep on bugging the Guard, He's looking for his daughter, he's looking for a name Amelia, Melissa no Aneliza Mendez! yeah Analiza Mendez the guard attempt to call 999, thats the moment, the part guy scared away. But he's still outside. Roger explained.
How did he knew that I'm here? Confused. Hatred. He killed my mom, is he comes to kill me too? I felt tear come down to my cheek.
Are you alright Nathalie?
"Yes, I am" ! So we should be extra careful. He might be dangerous! I just answered. Before left and went inside the building.
I did my work but most of the time I was in my deep thought, and even my Co worker who asking something but I didn't hear them are worried for me. I'll always asked if I'm alright. Or even I'm not feeling well.
Since I saw my step father my concentration are getting Bad, how many times a make a couple of mistakes and even I'm talking to a certain client I was not focus and it ended up on not getting a deal. And it's not good in my job performance at all.
Almost done with my shift,I started to tidy up my table and I'm just logging out in my PC when my agent ask me to report in the big boss office before I leave.
I knock on the close door, I was tell to come in by the weak voice inside. I causiosly open and close the door. I seen Mr. Harris Collin who's waiting for me.
"Hi Sir, Emily told me that you want to see me?
"Take a seat Nathalie! Yeah, I noticed that you've been so distracted this past weeks?"
"Do you have any problems Nathalie? I've known you for so long years up to now, and I saw how you grow and become an asset in this company. You never let anyone or anything interfere in your way especially when it related in your job." to the extent that you get birth with the sweet joshua
"I'm sorry Sir! I admit it!
"You know that, you can tell me if you have problems isn't it Nathie? He asked concerned.
That's what I like to our boss he's so kind and caring for everyone. He's my mentor, the first time I stepped in this company, he interviewed me. I thought it was easy because he asked me about who I am but he challenge me when it's come to job. I almost cried because of the thought that I failed. But I called back by the assistant and start whenever I'm available.
"Yes I do Sir! But...
"But What Nathalie!? Are you sick? Giving me scrunizing look.
"Or someone bothering you? Tell me! Is this the guy Jacob? He give me a penetrating looks trying to understand me.
"It's not about Jacob, and not even my health Sir, I'm sorry for my slacking off in my previous shift, it will never happen again,"
He give me a sigh. "Alright, If you say so, I'm not going to press you on that matter. But Nathalie I always here to help, not as your boss but a father like. Always keep that in your mind". He looks at me full of concern. "Thank you Sir!
Anyway, I called you because I got a request letter from a friend company and I saw figure out that this job suits for you, you need a break and new place it's might help you out!"
Sir, is that your way of firing Me? You know that I love this job!"
He laughed. "You're silly, Nathalie yes I know that, and I wouldn't do such a thing. I'm giving you a vocation leave with pay, and my friend company is just asking 3 up to 5 hours per week of your time. And you can do it anywhere or anytime whenever is convenient for you.
He pass me a folder. This is all the details for your next job, places and conditions. e the private plane ticket for you and baby Josh. Study it and plan for your own.
