The owner of the company was Adrian.
The day he was suppose to arrived, the entire company changed. The place was exceptionally tidy. Everything was clean, organized, and in perfect condition. Everyone was on their best behavior.
Then suddenly, someone came rushing in.
“He's here!”
As Adrian walked through the company, every employee stood up. I stood up too, but as I looked around, I noticed something strange.
Fear.
There was a little bit of fear in their eyes.
When I got a chance, I approached one of the employees who had always been kind to me.
“Why is everyone so worked up today? The boss just came in, didn't say anything, and simply walked past. Why is everybody so tense?”
She looked at me.
“You're just an honorary intern. Mind your business.”
I left and went to Rachel.
“I noticed it too,” she said.
Later that day, while we were going home, Rachel explained what she had heard about Adrian. Whenever he came into the country, she said, he usually came for two things.
First, to sack employees.
According to her, Adrian was cold and hot tempered. He wouldn't hesitate to dismiss anyone he felt wasn't performing well.
Second, he came to cut the budget.
His decisions could increase or reduce the employees' benefits and ultimately affect their well being.
That was why everyone was nervous. The next day, another announcement was made. There would be a small company dinner to welcome Adrian back, and everyone was expected to attend. I was excited, but I also had a problem. Every night, I went home to take care of Mama. How was I going to leave her? I couldn't abandon her, but I also wanted to attend. It was my first company dinner.
Eventually, I decided I would go and leave when it became extremely late.
I got ready. I didn't have anything special to wear, so I simply wore what I had.
When I arrived, there were drinks and food everywhere. Then I saw something I hadn't had in a very long time.
Alcohol.
I took a sip.
“Wow. It's been a long time.”
With everything I had been going through, I kept drinking. And drinking. Until I became completely drunk.At some point, I remembered Mama. I had to go home. I stood up, but in my drunken state, I forgot everything my bag, purse, phone, even my identity documents.I simply stumbled toward the exit.
Then I bumped into someone.
I was too drunk to realize who he was.
I barely remember what happened after that.
The next thing I clearly remembered was opening my eyes in an unfamiliar room.
I was lying on a bed, and I was no longer dressed. Adrian was sleeping beside me.
Fear immediately rushed through me.
I remembered everything the employees had told me about him.
I didn't know what had happened during the night. I quietly got out of the bed, gathered my clothes and belongings that I could find, and left.
I didn't wake him.
I didn't say anything.
I simply disappeared.
I went straight home, carrying the weight of fear, confusion, and unanswered questions with me.
Mama was waiting for me.
And she had no idea what had happened.
