Glassy Secrets✔

chapter 1

I WAS SPLASHING MY HANDS in the water pointlessly in the sea. I can't even swim in a pond properly let alone in the Indian ocean. I was in the water while my Mr Willows was in a boat next to me. he was pushing my head down in a water. I saw charlotte drifting away in a life boat. I screamed even as Mr Willows used both his hands to keep my head submerged. Salt water filled my mouth and nostrils as I heard laughter at a distance.

My nightmare ended as I woke up with heavy breathing. my face, hair and clothes wet. The nightmare was over . I looked around my small cozy room my eyes drifting to the open window near my bed from which water is sprinkling. I must have forgotten to close the window before sleeping. The heavy rain is pouring outside making my hand on their own to the window slit to feel the rain on my slightly dry hands and patchy skin.

It's quite unusual to rain in this season especially in california in mid may. Anyway it's nothing much to do with me I have to go work whether it rains or storms. Right now my life is usually like this. The daily boring routine that I had to follow everyday with no fun whatsoever. Wake up, work, more work, eat, more more work, home, eat, sleep not to forget tiredily.

I haven't gotten a peaceful sleep since well I don't remember. The incidents or to say nightmares of my life reminds me every part of my life that I left behind. It's been past 6 years and I still can't get rid of them. I yawned and run my hands through my face as I remember the fragments of nightmare that woke me up from slumber. The clock is ticking 4:23 am right now. I have still got 2 more hours to sleep. With closing the window and grabbing my duvet I slid off to darkness.

"Ms. William your early today. Why my dear why. You should sleep more. Next time come to company at 11 am okay." My boss, Mr jenkings said sarcastically with a scowl on his beard face.

"I'm sorry." I nervously said.

"Your are what.. sorry. You are 1 hour late Ms William. What should I do with you now tell me. It's been like this for a week." He yelled.

"It will not happen again I promise I'll not do anything wrong from now on." I pleaded.

"It's your last chance, one move wrong and your fired.. FIRED!! " He shouted and walked away from me leaving me and my face flushed. Everyone is staring at me some whispering some laughing.

"Ms William, " a soft voice said. Mrs Kiran my colleague. " Boss said that you have to go to airport and pick up the briefcase which is sent by another company. Their are documents in that briefcase that you have to assist and make a presentation. Their flight will arrive at 9:30. Hurry up"

"Uhh okay thank you".

I looked at my watch it's 9:12 now. I really need to hurry up.

Right now I'm at the airport waiting for that flight to come with that stupid briefcase. The flight is 10 min late. My stomach is growling from hunger. I had to get home soon.

My phone starting ringing startling me.

"Hello Mr jenkings". I said in a timid voice.

"Their is no time for hello young lady. Did you got the briefcase".

"N-no......I GOT it your briefcase is walking right in front of me I mean the person with briefcase. I'll get it don't worry". I said hurriedly and ended the call.

The person with briefcase wore blacksuit With black glasses. I smiled at him and waved. I took the briefcase with me while thanking him and starting walking my way out. While walking or to say running I got bumped and my whole bag things scattered on the airport floor with briefcase my phone my cards all in different directions.

"Shit" I muttered.

I quickly collected my things and took briefcase. I apologised to my bumper and walk away from there.

As I got home I kept the briefcase on my table and start preparing for lunch. I texted Mr jenkings about the briefcase and he seemed calmed. Today is Saturday so I decided to do my work tomorrow on Sunday.

It's night time now I took the briefcase and decided to see the matter which is to assist. As I tried to open it with the code that was given by Mr jenkings.. it doesn't work. I tried again and again but no use. I scowled at briefcase which is being so stubborn to open. Then my mind clicked when I got bumped in the airport the person also had a brief case it means they got exchanged...

Shit. I'm so dead and fired...!!!!!
