*A person grabs the megaphone*

Hello, hello. Is this even working? Oh, it does!

Ahem! This is the author speaking. This is my first ever written novel, so expect some wrongs.

This is all poured out from my poor pea-sized brain. Hahaha...

...

Anyway, without further ado, let the story unfold!

The wind whispered, and from the gentle breeze, resonating a soothing sound. On a hilltop, various graceful flowers sway with the wind, as if dancing along with it. The leaves on the trees trembled slightly, some fell on the ground, and some mingle with the wind, wandering in the air, creating an amusing art form.


A young man leaned against the big oak tree. His silky, jet-black hair flutters with the wind.


Arms crossed, he gazed at the distance perplexedly, his sight locked into the big town below. The delicate face scrunched, his eyes glued to the most prominent building.


He sighed, placing his hands on both his cheeks and squeezed them hard.


He winced in pain, his face now has a red puffy cheek. He slowly closed his eyes, feeling the breeze hit his face...


Suddenly, he drops down, eyes open again, staring into the vast area. With teary eyes, the young man thought,

'Haha... I'm doomed.'

There were five floors in Company GoSoft. A small garden and a bench reside on the rooftop, where one can sit and relax. The upper three floors were mainly where the office workers laboured, either on their computer or clients' phone calls. There is a coffee stand on each level, its purpose as an energizer for the people in it.


Emil Nadur works on the fourth floor, where he spends almost half his day. He rooted his eyes to the computer, fixating on his work, but infrequently, there would be a jab on his head as if someone were punching it.


He kneaded his temple, blamed himself for drinking so much last night. Now, the aftereffects are starting.


Well, he couldn't help it. How could he withdraw when the boss was still standing straight in front of him, the bottle of wine in his hands, continually filling up the cup whenever it was empty.


He'd rather be drunk to his death than lose his job, and it would be troublesome to look for another one.


It was meaningless to think about it, so Emil went to get a cup of coffee. Next to him, his actions gain the attention of his coworkers.


The man snickered, "Had so much yesterday?"
