Nothing really graphic that needs a gist, I promise.

I was working on my final project, adding the 'wow' factors, as it was mostly completed when Olivia called me.

Of all the four marketing advisors I had, she and Killian were the best. Killian barely opened his mouth to add his ideas but he and Olivia, somehow managed to mould their eccentricities to a kick-ass power-packed one collective persona.

It was so surprising to see her call at 10 p.m at night.

"Sir... I know Mr. Brantley had asked me not to disturb you during school days but..." Was she jumping around? "Oh my god, I cannot believe it... Oh my god omygodomygodomygod... You don't believe it, I don't believe it and I have seen that a thousand times already... omyomygodomygodomygod..." She took a breather. "Hello Mr. Truscott, this is Olivia. Remember me? Your marketing advisor. Hello?"

"Yes, Olivia, I do remember you, we talked last week, remember?"

"Oh, yes, yes... I just feel, you know; I am not important enough for people to remember me... So how are you Mr. Truscott? Have I told you, your voice is calming to listen?" She sighed. "When I find a boyfriend I am gonna pick one with a voice like you, so he could talk to me while I sleep, you know?"

"Yes, Olivia I know. You have told me that a little over a hundred million times. So, what is this about?"

"What is what about? Oh, Killian stop kicking me... Do you want to talk to him? Exactly. I am talking to Mr. Truscott. So, Mr. Truscott, what were we talking about?"

God! I needed to find myself a pet like Olivia and keep her in my pocket, without Robbie knowing of course, because he would kill her when I sleep, because he was just a jealous bastard.

"Something you have watched a thousand times already and lots of omygodomygodomygod?"

There was absolute silence from Olivia and Killian laughing somewhere on the other side.

"Is he talking about porn?" I heard Olivia whispering to him and I smacked myself with the robot hand I was coding.

Ow!

"The YouTube video. Ask him to watch it." Thank you, Killian.

Then I heard Olivia screaming again and jumping around. "Oh, Mr. Truscott. You won't believe..."

"Olivia, to the point."

"Oh, yes, I have shared a video link, please watch it and call me back." She hung up the phone.

God!

That girl brightens up my day, well, technically night but if the link was to a porn, I would smack her with this robot hand.

"Hi, fellas... Mel here."

It was a Get Ready With Me For A Fancy Event; Vogue YouTube video of MelBel. I had no idea why she sent me this one, I was no big fan of Country music or make up tutorials.

"... so, I really don't want to come across as a stuck up glittery neck rich lady but... more of a 'come talk to me, I am fun to be around vibe' when I go for an event... And trust me, the posher I go for, more cuckoo I look like, because I am a Texan country girl at heart... so just a dab of concealer because... I have air bags for eyes and..." She twisted her face left and right "... the lights pick up on patches you know... so we gotta make sure it is all blended nice and well..."

Uhhh why was I watching this?

Then she took a sip of a drink... Not just any drink... our drink.

Oh My God.
