The next morning before the interview, Niall came into the Hall in which the interview was going to be taken. He was sitting there cause he needed some time alone because he wasn't able to sleep the whole night. He was happy and a bit of the nostalgic cause at the end of the day, he was going to meet her, finally. When no one came into the room for the next five minutes he stood up and went towards the big window which was on the left side of the room. He stood there thinking of multiple things at the same time. And suddenly his meditation got broken by a big thud,
'Wait...now I get it he is a psychopath.' Said someone who was there in the room all this time without being noticed by him.
When he turned around he found a girl with dark brown hair sitting in the room, alone. He wasn't able to see her face. So he asked,
'Who?' and his voice echoed in the empty room.
Sarah got scared of the voice which echoed in the room cause there was no one until then and no one opened the door too. So, the question was to whom this voice belonged to? And how did the owner managed to enter the room without being noticed by Sarah?
She stood up without turning around.
'Who. Is. Psychopath, Miss?' Asked Niall again after not receiving an answer to his question.
She turned around and found a tall guy with black shiny hair perfectly combed but a loose strand was lying proudly on his forehead standing. He had green eyes very dark like a dense forest. She looked into his eyes as she turned around and got lost into it.
Niall tried to control his emotions as much as he can but, his eyes got filled at last. But before any teardrop could fall on his cheek Sarah broke her concentration and said,
'I'm Sarah Brown. Nice to meet you.' and moved her hand in his direction as to shake hands with him.
'Oh! Umm...nic..nice to meet you too.' He said and cleared his throat but completely ignored Sarah's approach of shaking hands with him.
After a minute of silence, he asked again,
'Who is Psychopath, Miss Brown?'
'Nothing much just...umm.. blabbering something rubbish, please don't pay attention at all.' She said and smiled awkwardly.
'Well, whatever. So...you're here as an interviewee?' Asked Niall.
'Yah I'm..I..umm..yah.' She said nervously.
'And I guess you must be Mr. Carter?' She asked and Niall nodded and went to have a seat on the chair. After he sat he offered Sarah to sit too.
Sarah tried to converse once or twice but he didn't seem to be interested so, she just sat there quietly until Emma came and the interview started. After 15 to 20 minutes her interview got over and she went home...
She was in half lying and half-sitting position on her bed wearing clothes that make her feel most comfortable. It was getting cold day by day as the monsoon was arriving. So, she wore a peach-coloured sweater and a black lower to keep herself warm, and then she called someone.
'So, what's the news?' Asked Lisa as soon as she picked up the call.
'Nothing much just... everything went...normal.' Said Sarah with some awkwardness.
'Why..is there something up in your mind? I mean you don't sound good.' Asked Lisa
'No nothing, it's just I never thought that it would go normal.' Said Sarah.
'Oh! you and your sixth sense.' She said and Sarah scoffed.
'Okay umm...Sarah, I'll call you back there's a patient here.' Said Lisa and the phone call ended and Sarah put her phone on the side table of her bed.
Just after a minute, Sarah's phone blinked. It was an email from a company which said,
'Miss. Sarah Brown, we are glad to inform you that you're being appointed the post of manager in our company and we allow you to join work from tomorrow only, from 7'O clock sharp.
- The Ambition.'
Sarah jumped out of her bed with joyfulness cause it was the first time when she for a job but she never thought that the selection would be done so quickly. She called her mom to tell all of this and her mother, as always decides to throw a party but Sarah didn't want such stuff after the incident that happened two years ago. She wanted a normal life and wanted to live an ordinary person's life.
So she simply refused.
She calls Lisa again but she doesn't pick up because maybe she could be busy thought Sarah and finally after having supper she rolled herself around a blanket and went to slumber.
*Alarm Rings*
Sarah takes out her hand out of her blanket and shuts it up, it's time to wake up cause it's almost 5:30 am. Finally, after lying all awake in bed for about five minutes she sits up straight and yawns, a deep yawn.
She freshes up herself in about thirty minutes and heads out towards the office. In the middle of her way to the bus stop, she buys a burger to make her rumbling stomach quite and she finally reached the bus stop. Five minutes after waiting for the bus it arrived and Sarah got on it. After almost travelling thirty to thirty-five minutes more she arrived at the bus stop near the company and after all these walks and travels she entered the fully air-conditioned building...
She walked in feeling happy and nervous at the same time. Suddenly her phone blinked and started to look at her phone. It was Lisa's message,
'What the hell!! you got the job! Sorry wasn't able to call you tomorrow at night and sorry again won't be able to contact you today too, quite busy. So, when are you going to throw the party? I'll be waiting for your response.'
She was looking into the message when she bumped into something or...someone...
'Oops! sorry, my mistake.' She said immediately and started to pick the files that fell due to her.
'No worries. Sarah? Am I correct?' Asked the person in her sweet voice.
As Sarah looked up she saw Emma standing there. She stood, nodded, and gave a sweet smile.
'No worries Sarah, it's absolutely fine.' She said and they started to walk together.
'So, it's your first day today, how are you feeling?' Asked Emma after a few steps.
Sarah sighed and replied, 'Well I'm happy but can't say that I'm not nervous. There are almost thousands of butterflies flying in my stomach right now.' and they both laughed
'I know it happens. Well just go on the fifteenth floor and wait there, I'm quite busy right now, but I'll try to meet soon and make you understand your work. Right now, I have to go somewhere.' Said Emma, patted Sarah's back and left her in front of the lift.
Sarah got into the lift and suddenly the lift stopped on the next floor. Someone else came too. As soon as she saw the person she recognized him, it was Jeremy. He smiled at her, not a sweet one though. His smile made Sarah's body shivered again and the doors of the lift closed and the lift started to go up and he said,
'Welcome to The Ambition, beautiful lady.' and smirked...
Jeremy stood in one corner of the lift chewing his chewing gum and wearing a denim jacket, unzipped and a white shirt which was almost transparent under that fashionable jacket. I admit, he looked handsome but a lot scarier than a man handsome. I stood in another corner of the lift to prevent any kind of conversation with him.I took out my phone started to look into it and Suddenly the lights of the lift started to flicker on about the 14th floor and suddenly the lift stopped on the fifteenth floor. But to my amusement, the door didn't open. I looked at Jeremy but he doesn't seem to be bothered by it. He was just listening to the songs which were being played on his earphones. I thought that might be for a second until suddenly, the lift started to go down recklessly at a very high speed. Due to the trembling of the lift as it started to go down I screamed my lungs out and got a tight grip on the handle of the lift. The lights were still flickering. I got a glimpse
Are you alright Sarah?' I asked as soon as I reached her table.She was sitting with all blank expressions like a mannequin sitting on the chair, breathing.And as soon as she saw me I thought she'll feel more relay but she got more worried. She stood up and said.'Emma doesn't take it anyways, we were just stuck in there, it's nothing like what you're thinking.' She said worriedly.'He was just...he just was calming me down cause I'm..I'm afraid of darkness.' She further in one breath.'It's alright..it's very alright, I'm not misunderstanding at all. Calm down and here drink this.' I said and handed over a bottle of water.She drank almost all the water present in it and finally she took a deep breath and closed her eyes for a bit.'Do you really trust me, Emma?' She asked and opened her eyes.'Hmm. I trust you.' I said.'But no one here trusts me, Mr. Niall doesn't
‘Sorry, Ms. Margret for this inconvenience but you know I really needed to shift here. It was urgent. I hope you and the girl living here don't mind.' I said.'Don't worry dear, it's fine. And don't worry Sarah is a nice girl. She will not mind at all.' Said Ms. Margret with a warm smile.'Sarah??' I asked not knowing to whom should I call with this name.'Your new roommate. She is a nice girl she'll help you. Treat her like your elder sister.' She said and patted my back.'Thank you, Ms. Margret.' I said.'Call me Aunt darling and mention not.' She said and took me upstairs.We went up and there was Brown's door. We knocked on the door and to my astonishment, the girl living there opened the gate faster than I thought. She looked.... ugly wearing a shiny red shirt and shiny red pants, obviously paired with it. Her hair was uncombed and I guess she was eating something cause...it could be seen on her right hand and mouth.
I sat in the car before him so to avoid any circumstances in which he could scold me.He came and sat in the seat right next to me. I looked at him and he didn't even bother to look at me.'Mr. Niall, you may please sit on the backseat comfortably, why are you sitting here?' I asked him with adding all honorifics.'I'm not sure about your driving and I don't wish to die all of a sudden in the morning.' he said arrogantly.I sighed in frustration and started to drive.'This..is for you.' He said and handed over a chocolate bar to me out of the blue as we reached the destination.'A chocolate bar? But why?' I asked.'Umm..take this as an apology from my side. Emma told me yesterday that you were afraid of darkness and Jeremy was comforting you.' He said looking in front.Oh! so you finally understood, you arrogant ass.'Thanks a lot, Mr Niall .' I said wit
As I rushed to the parking lot I saw a guy laughing in a low pitch and talking to someone. As I went in I saw that guy was Jeremy and on top of that he was with a girl there, flirting. I ignored them and towards my car but as soon as I reached my car I realized that my keys were still on my desk almost 20 floors above. I had to again go up. I turned around in frustration and saw Jeremy standing close to me. In reflex, I pinched him in the stomach, though that punch was very light he acted as if I had broken his some of the bones. He was the one who approached me and not me and asked me to get into his car. Though I refused many times cause he was acting all flirty but the fact that Anna was all alone in the house made me accept his favour.This all that happened, there was not a single time when I approached him, in the lift too when I squat down and closed my eyes he came and hugged me. Just to comfort me nothing else. But why Mr Niall and everyone is blaming me. W
'Mr. Rockwell, are you listening?' I said and stood up from my desk.My cabin was like a medium-sized room with a shelf on the left full of files of my clients. There was another shelf on the right-hand side in the corner which had many books mostly about psychopathy and some books related to calm someone's mind. I mostly recommend that ones to my patients. In the middle of the room was my table, I had one chair on the wall side for me, behind my chair there was a window. A beautiful lawn could be seen from there.On my table usually, I kept a pencil stand which had many things like a knife, just to cut fruits, cause sometimes I'm on diet but it's just... sometimes. I had some pens, pencils, markers, and a blade on it too. This what my whole room looks and this whole room is my life. I studied hard just for this cabin and I'm...happy with it.But today somehow I had a bad feeling since morning like something was wrong, or maybe it was because of Sarah. She al
A few hours ago...I was back into that small room whose small bulb was flickering in the corner. I clutched into the corner with fear as someone opened the door of my room and somewhere I knew who it was. As the door opened he was there, standing. He came in with a thin wooden stick in his one hand, it was thin but strong. As he came more nearer to me the faster my heart started to beat. He finally bent down up to my level and said,'Why can't you understand dear, I'm your father.' His eyes were filled with tears that can roll down from his cheeks and get vanished in his thick beard anytime.'All you have to do is, call me father. Can't you do that much for your father, Darling?' He said and wiped his unshed tears.After spending almost a week in this house I got to know somethings about him. His daughter ran away somewhere, obviously who will live with a psychopathic father. She never came back since and he has gr
I came outside my cabin just to say bye to my friend who was going abroad for a month on a business trip. I was about to go in when the receptionist said,'Dr. Ray, there's a patient for you.' And she pointed a girl wearing a black skirt and a white shirt with a black collar.I knew who she was, cause she came earlier too.'Good morning Ms. Wilkinson, how you doing?' I said as I went towards her.'Oh! no need of formalities you can just call me Anna, Doctor .' she said and gave a bright smile.'So, how you came here today?' I asked for further.'Actually, I shifted to a new house as you said, but I guess it didn't work. I experienced it again a few days ago. So, I need your help again.' she said worriedly.'Oh! I see, so let's go in my cabin then.' I said and we started to walk towards my cabin.'I guess you haven't told about this to your housemate till now.' I asked and she nodded.Before I coul
