“I’m sorry I’m late!” Cassie yelled, as a manner of greeting as she pushed open the door to Books-A-Plenty, dragging Aaron and Lily behind her.The woman who had been pushing off the last of the bookstore’s dirt into a dustpan looked up and smiled. Amanda Collins was an old friend of Cassie’s mum who ran Books-A-Plenty alongside her novelist husband, Timothy. She had been much older than Cassie’s mum but the two of them had gotten along well. Amanda had given Cassie her first job in the bookstore when she was just thirteen and Cassie had found it hard to quit ever since then. Hence, her shifts had changed from two hours after school to as long as she felt like on Sundays. Back when Cassie’s parents were still alive, Amanda had voluntarily babysat for them and had done it without pay, claiming that they were the ones doing her a favor as all of her grandchildren lived too far away to be properly babied. After Mr. and Mrs. Peters had passed, leaving Cassie to care for th

Cassie had taken her sweet time getting out of bed on Monday morning. For the first time since she had started work at Tech Town, she had been able to wake up at seven thirty instead of by five like she regularly did. Although the twins were also relieved to have almost two extra hours of sleep, they were even more excited at the possibility that they would have the opportunity to meet their sister and properly hang out with her once they got back from school. Usually, after her day at Tech Town, Cassie would quickly head home to check how they were fairing before rushing off to her shift at the Bean House. When she got back later in the day, they would have already gone to bed. Aaron and Lily rarely saw her and missed their big sister.As she had no reason to go to work that morning, Cassie had enough time to cut the twins’ pancakes into animal shapes, pack them a nutritious lunch and finally do the laundry like she had been planning to all month. Once the clothes were out of the dry

By the time Cassie got back to Felix’s office, she found Bethany sprawled out of one of the couches present in the office. Her black heels dangled from one end revealing the rode soles underneath them. The envelope that she had been clutching close to herself lay dormant on the ground beside her handbag. She was scrolling though the catalogue of a high end online boutique and mindless adding every item that crossed her screen into her virtual shopping cart.“Is that you, Chloe?” She asked without looking up.Cassie huffed. She had gone through all that stress in acquiring Bethany’s food and the woman didn’t even know her name. The lady that made lunch for the company’s staff, whose name Cassie had once again forgotten to ask for, had smiled at her sympathetically when she had asked for Bethany’s order.“You can’t get her order here, hon.” She had declared in her thick Tennessee accent. “You are going to have to go to that vegan restaurant across the office to get it.”Cassie had dashe

When Cassie returned to Felix’s office, Bethany was just polishing off the rest of her salad. “Took you long enough.” She scoffed once her eyes spotted the bottle and glass in Cassie’s hands. “Pour me a glass.” She ordered.There was a brief struggle as Cassie tried to open the bottle of Chardonnay but when she eventually got the tight cork out, she filled the champagne glass halfway and then handed Bethany the glass.Bethany examined the glass closely as if she were checking if it had been poisoned. “Do I look like a child or like someone who cannot hold her liquor?” She inquired. “This shit is half-empty. When I ask you to pour me a glass, Cleo, I expect you to fill up the entire glass.” She said, as she held out the glass.Cassie sighed. She had no idea if Bethany was purposely refusing to say her actual name or if the woman didn’t care enough to actually commit the two syllables that made up C

Cassie wished that Daniel could have followed her back to Felix's office to confront Bethany but she knew that her wish was impossible. Just like her, Daniel had a job to do and she didn't wish to drag him away from his job to participate in something that could go terribly wrong and cost his job in the process with just a single word.Bethany was still nestled on the couch where Cassie had left her when she had entered the office.“I hope you didn't crease it.” She said when Cassie handed her the dress. She unzipped the plastic bag and pulled out her dress to check for any possible creases.Cassie waited for her to acknowledge the dog but Bethany’s full attention was on the dress.Satisfied that her dress was fine, Bethany slid her shades off her head and unknotted the satin scarf around her neck. Then she began to take off her underwear. “It’s always better to wear silk without underwear.” She stated. “See something you like?” She asked, and she slipped off her bra. Then she jiggled

Still feeling absolutely flustered, Cassie began to walk back to Felix’s office taking her time so that she could compose herself before she got back to the office. She would probably have to bleach her eyes to get the image of the fucking duo out of her brain. She, along with everyone else that had attended the meeting held on her first day of work, knew that Luther and Emerald were not-so-secretly fucking. Still, it was one thing to know about the office romance, another thing to witness it happening first hand and yet another thing to be invited to partake in the debauchery. When she had first been aware of Luther and Emerald’s sexual escapades, she had no idea that Luther was married. Most men his age were usually married but when it became obvious that he was sleeping with Emerald, she had unconsciously conditioned her mind to believe that he was a single man. The fact that he had the audacity to cheat on his wife, while she was not only in the same building but just a few feet

After she left Tech Town, Cassie took the train to the nearest locksmith, which was unfortunately located all the way across the city. She placed the dog carrier on her lap all throughout the train ride and got a lot of curious and disgusted glances from the people beside her. She didn’t blame them. If people weren’t so keen on minding their business, they would have had a lot of questions for her. How did she let the dog get so dirty? Why was she using such a huge padlock on such a small carrier? Was it just their imagination, or did the dog’s collar look a little too tight? Did she know that the dog carrier was stinking up the train?When she got to her destination, she was quick to hop off the train and begin her search for the locksmith. Locke’s Locks located across a busy intersection and wedged between a thrift store and a diner. It looked out of place between the other two buildings as both the thrift store and diner channeled a dainty aesthetic vibe that Cassie found odd

Happiness doesn't last forever. Cassie was soon reminded of this fact the next day. She was heading back home from Books-A-Plenty where she had gone to drop off the white jumpsuits for Amanda to amend. Soon after the twins had left for school, she poured Snowflake a bowl of water and some turkey flavored kibble that she had purchased after her shift at the Bean House. Then, she tossed Bethany’s pantsuit, still faintly smelling of the spilled Chardonnay, into the washing machine. Once it was clean and dry, she tried using a YouTube tutorial to take in the bust for Isabel but after accidentally stabbing her finger with the sewing needle multiple times, she concluded that sewing wasn’t her forte. After getting blood out of the outfit, she headed over to Books-A-Plenty and handed the pantsuit over to Amanda who was the only person she knew that could amend it. Once Amanda learnt that it was to be Isabel's, she was also glad to drop what she was doing to focus on it. She liked the i
