Narrator

Oliver was busy these days, business men from overseas were coming to meet him to get a deal with him and he was stressed out as too many people were coming to fight for the position. He keeps having business lunches and dinner. He sometime gets the morning off, but that was very rare. His teams and him have meeting during breakfast and later in the day they sit with the people who wants to partner with his company. He finally got off from work where he does not have to bother meeting people. He was driving himself home when he had to stopped at the red light. He stared out and saw someone else staring at him or at his car. He could imagine her brown eyes staring at him. His one hand tried to reach out to her but the light turned green and the grey car left the scene just like a dream. He sighed, he could hear the cars behind him honking at him as he pressed the gas and his car moved forward like chasing the dream.

It was Monday morning again and Liana was not that happy about it. Another long week. She was happy with her job for now, but she wants to be a cartoonist in reality. The works she have to colour for are making her confidence low as she saw how the other Artists was so good and perfect about it. Her few young colleagues were giving her hard times and few of her seniors too.

She was about to enter the entrance of her office building when she met her seniors, the woman who despise her for some odd reasons. She smirked as soon as she saw her. Liana greeted them and that woman said to the male who was with her.

"Honey, I feel like having some breakfasts now from down the street cafe." She said pouting at the man.

"I am running late. I asked you that time-" the man stopped and looked at Liana.

"Newbie." He said calling her closer. " You heard that. Get her some sandwiches and coffees, I would like to have some coffee too." He said taking out his card. Just then few of their colleagues saw and went to them.

"Tess, what about me?" Another woman said.

"And a total of 15 coffees and 12 sandwiches." The woman, Tess said smirking at Liana. "I want it fresh and hot. Make sure of that. If it is cold, you have to go back there." She said looking at Liana.

Liana was upset about the treatment she was getting but none the less followed the order, but it seemed like someone saw it and was not very happy about it.

Liana was waiting for her orders nervously. She didn't know how she will carry all the seperate orders of coffees. She doesn't even have a car and have to walk back to the office which takes about 15 minutes. Just then a man, who she never met before came to order something and looked at her and was surprised.

"Hello, don't you work for Comic Centre." The man asked who was trying so hard to act and it seemed like Liana is falling for it. "My name is Ethan Knights."He said introducing himself.

Ethan was tall and well built. His brunette hair was swept up neatly and it almost reminded her of Mr. Kyle who she met last time.

"These guys knows how to carry themselves." She thought to herself.

"Hi, I am Liana Parker. I am sorry if I didn't recognize you. I am still meeting new people." She explained.

"That's alright, it happens." He said as he got his coffee orders and stood there awkwardly.

When Liana got her orders. Ethan was surprised for a second and said, " Hey, since we are going the same way. How about I help you. Seems like a team ordered the drinks."

Liana smiled gratefully and thanked him as they carry the things to the car.

Oliver decided to visit the Comic Center for a lot of reasons. He was here to see the progress, meet the new colorist, see how the colorist is doing and to see if she is comfortable with her environment.

"You definitely like this girl." Jason laughed at the phone. " Admit it already."

"You think that I will like someone like her?" He said rolling his eyes.

"Your excuses are lame for meeting her."

"I am just surprising the company to see how they are doing. Isn't that great!"

"You never do surprise things." Jason reminded him.

Oliver didn't say much and hanged up. He arrived secretly to the office. He wore a cap, mask and shades and was walking in when he saw how some so-called-seniors were bullying Liana by making her buy some coffees and sandwiches. He called Ethan, and told Ethan to help Liana and pretend that he too was grabbing some coffees and bring her back to the office. Oliver sat at his office in the Comic Centre and was beyond mad. He clearly remembers the faces of each person and thought to himself.

"Why am I behaving so strangely. I never used to bother about someone else's feelings." He couldn't control his emotions anymore as he pressed the mic to make an announcement to the whole office. He found out the names by his Directors and called their names in the intercom and asked them to come to the office, he made the announcement quickly before Liana comes back.

The five staff was nervously yet excitedly walked to his office. The three girls were beyond happy and tried to fix their hair and make up before going in to the office. This was the first time they were going to meet the CEO, up so close. But as soon as the door shut. Oliver turned back and smiled,but his smile doesn't reach his eyes.

"CEO Lee." They said as they greeted him.

"How are my staffs doing?" He said.

"Very well, thank you. It is such a great honor to meet you up close." One said.

Oliver smirked.

"You know the reason why I am calling you." He said.

"No." Tess said.

"I am going to fire all of you, today." Oliver said after sometime. They gasped in the room.

They quickly started apologizing and asking him the problem and misunderstanding.

"There was no misunderstanding as I clearly saw how you treated a new employee in our office. You know how I feel about Bullying and harassment in the office." Oliver reminded them.

"We are very sorry." The man who gave his credit card to Liana said.

"You should be apologizing to the woman and not me." Oliver said. "If she forgives you, which I hope she does not then you all can stay, but it is her decision." Oliver said and you two he said looking at the man and Tessa.

"I hope next time you two will be reporting to the office about someone getting mistreated and not someone else reporting about you." Oliver said.
