Quianna’s POV
My hands are being busy since in the morning, preparing for the special meeting conducted by our team about the new product we’ll going to introduce. I am Quianna Ross, a normal office employee working under the company owned by my best friend’s parents. I am currently an intern working for 6 months and it’s my final week before the announcement of regular employees, even if it is the company of my best friend, I don’t want people to keep telling gossips on who I entered or chosen at the final lists. That is why I am working until my feet felt numbed and my shoulders tensed for the whole day.
“Quianna! Meeting in 5 minutes.” The team leader said to me.
“Yes, coming!” I hurriedly collected all the needed papers for our meeting.
“Quianna! I said we’re starting the meeting now!” I saw the team leader peeked from the meeting room to yell out to me.
“Yes! Here I go!” I yelled and run towards the meeting room. Oh, shoot! I forgot to prepare drinks for the members.
I piled all the papers on the table and run again out of the room to go to the pantry. I start preparing enough cups and simultaneously open each coffee packet. I need to do it fast, or else our tram leader will scold me, again.
“Quianna! Where’s the presentation?” Alicia asked me, she’s one of the members of our team, but she’s already a regular employee so I guess she’s one of my bosses.
“I’ll prepare it in a minute!” I yelled and put all the cups on the tray and slowly walked towards the room. I kept reaching for the doorknob, but I feel any moment I can spill all these drinks on me. A familiar hand reaching for the doorknob to open it, I look up and saw Dylan smiling from ear to ear.
“Why are you always in a haste?” he said then opened the door.
“Really? I did not notice.” I said then awkwardly laugh.
“Well, for your information madame, you’re always doing things in a hurry.”
“I think I need to hurry, one more mistake and I’m out in this job.” I said then shoo him out.
“Ms. Scarlet, I am done preparing.” I said to our team leader.
“Next time Quianna, when I said 5 minutes, it should be 5 minutes. I can’t delay the meeting just because of your carelessness.” She said and entered the room with other members. I sat in front to control the presentation. After an hour, the meeting ends, and I need to clean up the room.
I picked all the candy wrappers littered on the floor, the mugs and the papers not needed. I looked at my watch and saw my shift will be done in 15 minutes. After I finished all my tasks, I flopped down on my swivel chair and sat back looking at the ceiling for the remaining minutes of the shift.
“Quianna.” Someone knocked on my desk and it’s Dylan again.
“What do you want?”
“Let’s get off to work together.”
“Okay, wait in a second.” I said then start fixing my desk and my bag.
“Let’s go.” I said then walked out first. Dylan and I are best friends since we are little kids. Our parents became friends while we are in kindergarten, so we technically siblings.
“I’m so tired, Dylan.” I suddenly said to him.
“It’s okay to rest for a while Yana.” He said then get my bag for him to carry.
“I can’t. I need to work hard for them to say that I did not get into that company through my connection to your parents.” I said and sat on the bench at the playground.
From here, you can see all the buildings of the city and the famous city lights which everyone wanted to see during the night.
“But you did not. You finished college with high grades, and you have abilities for this work.”
“And at the same time, they know we’re close, Dylan.” I said and looked at the night sky.
“And at the same time, you did your job very well.” He tries to comfort me.
“Don’t be ridiculous, I always do my job bad, I always got scolded and one more mistake, I’ll be fired.”
“You want me to change your working department?” he said, then I instantly looked at him and glared.
“That is why they’re saying those words to me.” I said to him and he just chuckles.
“I’m just joking.” Then he laughed.
*Phone rings*
“Hello?” I answered.
“Quianna! Where are you?!” mom hysterically said to me.
“I’m on my way home, what happened?”
“Your father was in a car accident! He was in hospital now!”
“What?! Okay, text me the address, I’ll go there.” I said and then ended the call. I was about to run when Dylan got my hand. He looks at me like saying he was coming; I just nod to him as I got no time to waste.
My phone vibrates sign that mom texted me the address. I opened it and saw there is another text message coming from an unsaved number. I just ignored it and read my mom’s message to me, it’s a relief that they got him hospitalized in our owned hospital.
“Which hospital?” Dylan asked and started the car.
“Ours.” I said then he runs the car so fast.
