I was bowing slightly while I'm walking to the presidential table. The vibes on their table screams power and if you try to sit with them you will feel intimidating.

Sir Vance sit on his respective chair while me I headed straight to the food table and get some food to serve them. As much aa possible I position myself at farthest side of the table because the man that I least wanted to see is sitting at the center.

"When can we hear a wedding bells?" says the old man sitting nearest my position.

"We don't need to be married uncle, I'm already happy of what we have. Right Vol?" says Nicole.

Even her voice sounds like an angel but her words left stung in my heat. So she call him Vol? Is it love when you reverse it. I know I am nothing compared to her.

"Marriage will never be the cup of tea of Vol, tito unless..." I didn't hear Sir Vance continue what he is saying so I get curious and slowly look at him. I shouldn't have done that because he was starring at me while smirking.

"What do you mean unless?"

Sir Vance laugh and look at Nicole "Oh nothing I was just kidding, Niks."

I saw in my peripheral vision that Mr. E continue eating. Looks like he didn't care what they are talking about. For heavensake they are talking about him.

"You must or I will be jealous." Though it sound normal but you can hear that she is serious. Then she look look around and her eyes stop at me. "Get me a slice of chocolate salami."

I don't know what to react. She's talking to me, why me? We are five girls assigned in this table yet she chooses me. And I was standing far from her.

"I said get me one slice of chocolate salami." She said it again. She move her eyebrows and I can see that she doesn't want to repeat what she had said.

I quickly get what she want and before I went back to their table I inhaled deeply. But before I can reach the table someone stop me.

"Can we switch our position, please." I look the girl infront of me she was holding a tray that has full of food. And she looks like she gonna cry anytime soon. "Please I don't like the table where I assigned. They are taking advantage of me. I saw how strong you are earlier, I know you can beat them. Please let's exchange our assigned table."

To think of it, it's good for my side. I will not deal with them anymore and I will be assigned at the corner of the hall. Far away from them.

"Okay." Then her face lit up and the smile on her face is evident...but I can sense something is wrong. "Thank you! Thank you so much! Your really an angel!"

I just smiled at her. We exchanged tray and I headed to her assigned table. The guests sitting there are three couple  and old. I gave them the food. They're nice and not taking advantage of me instead they are offering me food and treating me nicely. I get curious why did ahe said that. All of a sudden I heard a loud shout.

"Clear the area! and don't let anyone out on this building!" I heard Sir Vance voice.

Men in black uniform starting entering the room.
The chaos is happening. They surrounded us and we are told to stay on our spot. Then I saw Mr. E holding Nicole and I can see worries in his eyes. What happened to her? I heard gossip and blabbering in the room.

"All the service crew and employee here follow me!"

I heard a tall man stood in the middle of the room. He is a good looking man. His voice is quite intimidating and scary. Some started to walk while some stayed on their spot.

"I don't like repeating myself." Just like that we hurriedly follow him. There is a lot question in my head. Then I saw Abby walking to me.

"What's going on?" I ask her.

"Someone poison Ms. Nicole. Whoever it is they put it on her food."

"What!? Why?" I can never imagined this will happened.

"I don't know. There is a lot of reason why...but for sure this is not good for all of us! Especially those who assigned at her table."

I gulped. What the hell.

"I know what you are thinking. You should be ready. And please this time don't perform your stunt earlier...because this time they are not good to mess with. Believe me."

I'm trying to process what is Abby's saying. I didn't know that we are already in another room. Men in black in uniform is scattered in the room and the man who talk earlier is standing in the center.

"Those who are assigned at the presidential table will be entering this another door." and he point out another door inside the room.

The five girls who are originally assigned at  the presidential table was so scared.

"No! We didn't do something!" This is girl was one of those who are gossiping a while ago. The look on their faces shows that they're scared as shit.

"Did I tell you to talk?"

Her eyes bulge and she get paler. Instead of answering she shook her head.

"Good. Now let's go."

The five girls enter the other room and room went silent. I can smell fear. Even Abby's face is worried.
Then out of nowhere, we heard scream coming from the door that the five girls went in.

Some girls are trembling from fear. Even if we didn't see what they are doing but we can hear the pain and agony. The room went open and another guy went outside. He scan the room and he stop in me.

I gulp. "You, come with me and..." he scan again the room. He knitted his eyebrows like he is looking for someone. "Come." He turn his back and headed to another room.

"Shit! What have you done Athea!" Abby hissed at me.

"I-I don't know Abby."  Her face is so worried.

"G-god! Athea! I told you stay out of trouble!"

I want to answer back but someone interrupted.

"Are you deaf? Don't make me wait." The man is still standing in the front door. His voice is neutral but scary. I hurriedly went to him.

My heart is pounding wildly the more I get nearer the door the more my knees turning into jelly.  Whatever on the back of the door is something I should be afraid of.
