The Next Day (3:30am)

The loud alarm snapped Piper out of generous sleep, she rolled over her bed tiredly and sat up,

“He didn’t come home yesterday”She thought and a single tear rolled down her cheek. she couldn’t bring herself to believe what her dad did yesterday. She sighed softly and tossed off the wrapper aside and got off her small foam bed, that has no cover or sheets.

She slipped her foot inside her flip-flop and stood up. She holt and stared at her best friend who happened to be an orphan and also happen to be a victim of rape.

She crouched and tapped her gently on the lap. Not after saying rubbish unconsciously for seconds, she opened her eyes and observed her environment. Her gaze went to the windows and her eyes widened immediately.

“It’s not morning yet, why did you wake me up?”Riley complained.

“Did you forget the interview, we have an interview with Walter Empire.”Piper uttered, pulling her arm.

“Oh! I didn’t forget, but Piper can you do me a favor”Riley uttered.

“What favour?”Piper asked.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

“Can you let me sleep back, please, just for thirty minutes?”She begged dizzily.

“You want to sleep back”Piper stuttered, astonished by her words.

“Can’t you do that for me”Riley pouted.

“What’s the essence of sleeping when you are awake already?”Piper scoffed.

“Piper”Riley roared angrily.

“Come on Riley, this is a one time opportunity, at least let’s go and come with anything they give us. Riley, do you know this is a great offer? The Walter Empire doesn’t accept people anyhow. So right now, we need to gain their trust and show them how punctual we are,”Piper uttered, sitting on the wooden chair.

Piper could only hear Riley snore,

“Pervert, how can she be sleeping despite explaining everything to her”She muttered, gritting her teeth.

She stood up and tapped her again. Riley pouts her mouth together and stares at her angrily.

“Why are you like this Piper, I just want to sleep for thirty minutes, if I did not wake up after thirty minutes come and wake me up yourself. See the time Piper, it’s not even 4 am yet,”Riley uttered rolling her eyes.

“I will come back and wake you up. I want to prepare food for Raiden and Kailani, make sure you get your bath before I come back.”She instructed.

“Okay”Riley uttered, sleeping back on her mat.

Piper did her necessary things within a short period of time, Riley was astonished when she came back after twenty minutes, explaining how she got everything done with that period of time.

Riley really felt like strangling her neck, because the glare she gave Piper was really scary.

“At least I ruined her sleep, lazy bone”Piper thought, dancing happily in the bathroom.

After spending hours getting a taxi,,, Piper and Riley got to Walter Empire. They locked their hands together staring at the fantastic colourful gate.. Riley cleared her throat in order to get Piper’s attention.

“See, we came very early, which is not right.”Riley muttered.

“Why did you say that?”Piper stopped and faced her.

“There’s no security guard at the gate, see how quiet the company is itself”Riley yelled.

“You know what, if you don’t want to be interviewed, you can just get out of here.”Piper uttered, dropping her hand off hers and hissed walking away. Piper pushed the small gate angrily leaving Riley outside the compound.

Riley burst into fresh tears as those flashes kept coming to head”Have been raped before not once but twice. It’s too dark Piper, please don’t go in,,,”Riley cried out loud, holding her head.

Piper turned around and saw how Riley was shaking trying to fight those painful memories. No one told her what to do before she ran out to assist her on her feet.

“Am sorry Riley, I am very sorry”Piper apologized, hugging her tightly.

“The memories are coming back Piper,”Riley stuttered.

“Don’t worry, I’m here.”Piper uttered softly, patting her hair gently with love.

Meanwhile, Mr Walter saw the whole drama and he scoffed after watching them. He picked up the megaphone and activated it.

“How did they think they will get rape here, at Walter Empire”He thought, bragging in his mind.

“I intentionally slept in the office yesterday, I only want to employ the punctual ones.

“Hello ! !”He said. Which startled the girls.

“We are here for the interview,”Piper screamed.

“Come inside the building,”Mr Walter said into the megaphone.

“Okay”Piper murmured, staring at how calm Riley was.

“Are you fine now?”Piper asked.

“Yes, I am good.”She nodded, adjusting her bag very well.

“Let’s go in,”Piper murmured, holding her tightly.

“Your credentials,”Collins asked.

“Here sir”They replied, dropping it on his table.

“An accountant and A marketer, are you friends?”He asked.

“Yes sir”Pipe gave the reply.

“Your results seem fine and great. Piper Aurora Wal…. ker”He stuttered when calling out her surname.

“Any problem?”Piper asked.

“Not… O yes.. I mean Nothing,, There’s no problem”He stuttered, running his hand through his hair.

Piper panicked and stood up.

“Are you sure you are fine sir?”Piper asked, looking at him worriedly. Riley got him a cup of cold water from the water dispenser

“Drink this sir”Riley said, handing him the cup of water.

“Thank you,”He uttered. He got choked.

“Did I just say thank you?”He thought, looking at Piper and Riley.

“Her face, her face”He thought, dropping the cup on the table gently. Piper walked close to him and touched his forehead. Not even his staff has the right to do such, but here is a stranger touching him and he’s not angry.

“You are running temperature sir”Piper uttered softly.

“The two of you passed the interview,”Collins uttered weakly.

“But you didn’t review mine sir”Riley asked.

“I have seen it, you can start working today. My personal male assistant will tell you how much you get per month and he will also introduce you to the staff.”He uttered and stood up.

“Okay sir, we will wait for the rest of the staffs “Piper uttered, bowing her head.

“Thank you so much sir”Riley uttered softly.

He ignored their appreciation and dipped his hand into his pocket, he brought his phone and dialed Owen’s number.

Hello Sir”Owen said dizzily.

Come back to work today Owen, and don’t be late”Collins uttered.

Okay sir thank you so much sir”He said…

Okay”Collins said and end the call.

“He’s going to come here and put you two in your various offices.” Collins uttered, trying to avoid Piper’s stares.

“Did you perhaps know me before? ”Piper’s voice stopped him and his heartbeat skipped a thousand beats.
