"So what is it that you need me to do?" Mia questions very eagerly moving some paperwork to the side before taking a seat on my desk in my office where not long ago she wasn't even permitted to enter. "I will show you, but then you need to find another seat because I doubt that we would get any work done if you sit here." I lift her legs into the air supporting them when she grabs onto the side of the hard wooden table to prevent her from falling when I retrieve the folders from the drawer and place them next to where she is seated and I slowly lower her legs again until they return to their hanging position. "These are all files retrieved from social workers and they each contain a different and unique story, all tragic and some very unappealing and traumatic," I warn her letting my right-hand rest on top of the first folder. "All the information you will need to make the best decision is in here and you need to summarize every folder motivating why you would pair that specific fold

"Good afternoon" I greet the board of Directors at the School of Meds University where we gather in the conference room for the first time for me as head where today we will be discussing the upgrades needed for the medical unit. I sit at the head of the table, while the board members sat around me, each with their own notepads and pens in front of them."I think it's clear that our medical unit needs a serious overhaul," I speak my voice hard and echoeing through the empty hall, looking around the room at each of them as their eyes stare constantly at me. "We have been falling behind in terms of technology and facilities, and it's time we caught up and bring this University to the great standards that it used to be. This is going to take hard work and determination, if you don't want to be here or you are here for the wrong reasons I give you the opportunity now to leave. No hard feelings." I wait for the two men that immediately jump up pushing their bodies from the table and leave t

"Ciao." I greet the blonde woman seated next to my brother in the booth behind the table at a louzy 24 hour diner, the both of them not completely fitting the dress code or even the area code. They stood out like neon painted colors on a black canvas. "Interesting choice of venue." I look around as I take a seat accros from them. The diner had a red, white and blue tone to it. Cheap and mostly empty, except for the few people sitting around filling their drunk bodies with food. "I like being reminded of where I came from, Lily." The blonde gives herself a name, extending her arm in my directions and I accept her introduction. "I am sorry to hear about your friend, Angela. She was also a friend to me." Lily with her smothering red lips peek my interest. She knew Angela?"Then my condolences to you as well." I nod my head Slightly in respect of a good friend who was taken away too soon. "How did you know her?""Well we went to the same University to begin with, but there the two of is

"Mia." I notice the gorgeous brunette sitting at the kitchen counter staring into the cup of coffee tugged between her hands. "Why are you not sleeping?" I question her as I place my suitcase on the table in the middle of the kitchen before removing my jacket. "I woke up and you were gone." Her voice a shallow hum creating small waves inside the raised cup at her lips."I wasn't far." I mention not that the distance mattered. I should have known that she wanted me here when she woke and I wasn't. "Sometimes it might happen that I need to go out late, but you should know by now that I am no further away than a phone call." I assure her. "I know." She whispers unconvincing before taking a sip of her coffee. "Do you ever feel guilty of what you do?""You need to be a little more specific. " I take a seat at the table not feeling well prepared for the following conversation. "Taking these babies from their parents?" She elaborate. "I know that you have this whole process, picking a chil

"I can't sleep." Madelaine lump her shoulders over letting them hang next to her body. She looks tired. "Let me see if I can remedy that." I point to the chair at the small table in the kitchen where my family likes to sit as they usually observe them and she takes in the chair that is offered to her. "I am glad that you are making friends." I mention as I pour some milk into the glass container. Warm milk is one delicacy that my mother use to make me and Achille before bed when we were children. It is considered a very good alternative to treat insomnia or in Achille's case, bad dreams."I try, but these girls are not what I imagined." She sighs. She was having trouble making friends? If she was, she was doing a hell of a job hiding it, besides... her one friend was unconsciously lying on the couch in the living room as we speak. "They are just so consumed with boys, make-up and sex." Her eyes was set intend on me as I wait for the milk to heat up in the microwave. "And you? What

"You bastard! You will sit for this even if it is the last thing I do. I am not scared of you." He continues continuously mutter sounding a bit scared to me even though he denies it. "Who do you think you are?" He spit, but quickly continues when I don't answer him. "I am no fool. I have kept quiet out of respect for your mother, but I will no longer keep my mouth shut. You are a sick son of a bitch, trafficking those whores into our country and letting them turn our daughters into little whores as well." Did he just refer to his own daughter as a fucking whore? Does this drunk cunt have no shame? "Our kids are innocent and too young to fulfill a man's needs..." "At last something we can both agree on." I interrupt his continues jacking. "Our kids are way too young for sex, especially if it is rape by the hands of their own father." I bend forward slightly to look him in the eyes. "The one man that is supposed to protect them." I inform him and by the way he scrunches his eyes togethe

"Mia" Her name flow from my tongue tasting like cotton candy when I fold my arms around her hugging her, tugging her close to my chest. "You look..." I didnt have words that could describe her. She looked stunning, amazing... No word could do justice for how beautiful Mia looked in the red dress that hugged her body so perfectly. Her hair fell over her shoulders to the one side revealing her neck and open shoulder. Her skin so flawless and soft. Red was definitly a new color on her and so was wearing such high heels and even tough this was not what I was used to seeing my girl wear, she still looked great, I didn't want her to change for anything."Come dance!" She giggles running towards the dancefloor covered with people swaying their hips and letting their hands flow in the air. She knows I do not dance, I shake my head watching her move her body around it's own axis. Her movements are fluid and rhythmical attracting the attention of somepeople around her, but it did not look like

The office is cold and slightly a mess after I started to share my office space with the woman who has the ability to drive me up against the walls. I quickly remove the clutter and put away the files before firing up my laptop and scroll through my emails, replying them as I sort through the spam and what was actually important when instantly I get a reply from Frank the seasoned owner of a transport company, rich with potential that I recently heard was going bankrupt due to another mismanaged opportunity and I quickly respond requesting a conference call over the internet. I met Frank at the Hotel opening and we quickly exchanged details when he told me about his import shipping business that is situated along the coastline of New York. The company mostly deals in importing sports cars and I would lie if I said that I wanted to become a part of this because of business. I love cars and always wanted to plant some roots in the motor industry, but more as a hobby than a b
