Tomi
The week had been super stressful for Tomi. Waking up really early, rushing down to work, meeting up with a lot of clients and attending to numerous assignments. It had been one hell of a week for Her and she couldn't wait to relax at home on Saturday.

She massaged her shoulders and heaved a sigh as she got out of the elevator and walked into the engineering corner plastering her signature boss smile on her face.

Fridays weren't so stressful since she always made sure that she did everything on time to avoid rushing and making any mistakes. After she had settled down in her office, Her secretary, Stephanie rushed into her office as if she was being chased after by a mad man.

"Stephanie what the hell is wrong with you?!" I grunted in annoyance as i grabbed a granola bar from the fridge.

"Sorry Ma'am I just wanted to fill you on the latest news." Stephanie stuttered.

"Gist ni,Gist ko..abeg I don't have your time at all today. Any extra work? Because I want to make sure that we won't have any work tomorrow." I inquired, munching on my granola.

"No we're actually good. It's a free day for us."

'Wow what am I going to be doing for the next five hours? Thank God I brought my laptop so it's to Netflix and chill here oh.' I thought to myself.

"Okay you can leave and please remind the new cleaner to clean this office thoroughly oh and I want my fridge washed too"

"You don't joke with this fridge oh aunty aunty!" Stephanie praised. When Stephanie talked like this just know she wanted chocolates, food or even gist. "Ehn I have gist for you oh aunty." She beamed.

Exactly what I thought.

"The new CEO came in this morning."

This morning? How? Why? I could sense that something big happened but i forgot to ask Stephanie because i was so tired. So that was why the workers wore big smiles on their faces.

'I really need to talk to my guys mehn.'

"Ah aunty are you listening to me?" Poor girl! I was so deep in my thoughts that i completely zoned out.

"Sorry jor you were saying."

"I said the CEO said he'll be resuming on Monday..Not like he said it sha but I overheard Chairman telling the head cleaner to work thoroughly on the CEO's office and I saw some interior decorators today. Apparently he wants the whole company designs to be redesigned so you have to choose the design that you lik-"

"Damn Stephanie do you ever speak at any speed except light speed."

She giggled "I'm sorry I was just caught up in the moment. So you just have to choose the design that you think looks nice so that I'll inform the designers." She passed a magazine and I chose a random design.

"Stephanie I'll be back..please call me if the need arises." 

I walked out of my office and sent a text to Amina and she told me that she was at the cafeteria downstairs so I went down to meet her. I entered the cafeteria and I saw her and Ray laughing at something on the menu.
