"I'm so sorry Vic, I just-"
"You just fucking lost the papers?" Vic yelled at me.
"Yes, but it was an accident."
"I don't care if it was an accident, how do you lose and stack of papers!"
"I'm sorry please don't-"
"Shut up." He snapped, pacing back and forth. I happily obliged his wishes.
Vic was honestly scaring me right now, and if he wanted me to shut up, then I would.
Vic gave me a stack of papers for the audit coming up next week, and I could've sworn I put them in the organizer but they aren't there. And of course, I flipped out because these are the fucking audit papers, without these they could be sued! So, Vic's mad. Not just mad, he's fucking pissed. Without the papers he can't give them to his father, which will cost his father's business. And it all comes back to me.
"I've got to tell my dad." He said after a few moments.
"No no no, please Vic, please don't tell him." I begged. "If you tell him, what's going to happen to me?" He ignored my comments and left the room, leaving me to cry for the short time being.
What have I done?

Vic
"Dad? I asked quietly, knocking on the shut, wooden door.
"Come in." He stated, so I turned the knob and walked in, avoiding his gaze now on me.
"I've got bad news..." I said.
I didn't want to tell him what had happened, but I had to. If I didn't, the issue would be much worse than it already is. I could lose my job, we could lose this business.
"What is it?" He asked, more concern in his voice.
"We...we lost t-the auditing p-papers." I called out. Silence filled the room as I resented myself for ever giving Kellin those papers.
"You. What." He said, his eyes baring into my skull.
"I'm sorry, it just-"
"You lost the papers?!" He snarled. I nodded. "Do you realize if we don't find those in the next four days we're done for?" I nodded again. "How did you lose them? You never do this!"
"I gave the papers to Kellin a-and now they're-"
"Kellin." He repeated, as if it all made since.
"No. No dad please don't-" But it was too late.
My father stormed out of the room and up the stairs, me following. His hands smacked the door, as he intruded the room. Kellin's eyes widened.
"You." He pointed at Kellin, a malicious look on his face. My dad rarely got this fired up, but this was enough to scare me. "Get out of my business and don't you dare come back." He snarled.
Kellin looked to me apologetically before nodding and starting out the door. I looked at my dad painfully.
He followed Kellin though, all the way onto the street.
"And get out of my house too." He yelled, slightly less venom in his words.
"Dad no you can't-"
"Shut up." He snarled, shoving past me back into the office. I looked around for Kellin but he wasn't anywhere. He was gone.
"Shit." I muttered, setting out on foot to try and find Kellin, but everywhere I looked wasn't where he was.
I just had to find him! He couldn't have just disappeared, so where the fuck is he?
