LUNA

Here I was. On the other side of the door of my sister’s room trying to get her to come out. “Ami? Please...open the door...” I said trying to plead with her. “Go away, Luna...” she sounded so defeated...“Ami we aren’t going to get through this unless-” Ami’s anger cut me off. “I SAID GO AWAY.” She sighed after that. “Please Luna..” Now she was pleading with me. Realizing I had spent way too much time here, I stood up. “Okay...Well um...I have to get to work...uh have a good day at school um call me if you need anything...” I walked away, grabbed my stuff, entered my car, and just...Cried...

LIAM

“Psst...Watch this..” Stephen says grabbing my attention. He grabs a pencil from my desk and throws it at Gregory who is on the couch in my office. Gregory catches it with ease. “Really Stephen? Throwing a pencil at a blind man? You have stooped to a new low, haven’t you?” Gregory says. Stephen looked dumbfounded. I chuckle and Stephen says, “Okay, that’s it, you are Daredevil.” I shake my head, “You two are unbelievable...” We had been sitting in my office for quite a while. We were waiting for my new personal assistant Luna Danvers. “Is this girl showing up or not?” Stephen questions. “doesn’t look so bright...” I replied with. Gregory sighs before getting up. “Welp, I’m going to grab a snack. You two want anything?” Gregory asks. We both respond with no, and Gregory walks out using his cane.

GREGORY

I walked out of the office and made my way to the vending machine. I ordered a couple of snacks and made my way back. On my way, someone crashed into me. “Shit! I’m so sorry!” The voice said. I never heard of it before, so I made the conclusion, that she must be Liam’s new assistant. I chuckle and reply, “It’s fine. You must be Liam’s new assistant. I’m Gregory I work for Liam and I’m also a best friend of his.” “Liam is Mr. Carmine right?” she asks. I chuckle again, “My mistake, yes, Mr. Carmine is Liam.” “I’m sorry to ask but do you know where his office is?” she asks. “of course. Grab onto my arm, I’ll lead the way.” she grabs onto my arm and we walk to the office. Once we enter, Stephen Introduces himself and so does Liam. She returns it with her name, Luna Danvers. I remind Stephen we have some...business to take care of and we leave the room, leaving Liam and Luna the only ones in the room.

LIAM

Luna sits down in the chair opposite mine. “I am so sorry I am late! I know how this looks-” I cut her off with my laugh. “It’s okay. You looked like you rushed here so you must have been doing something important before coming here.” I closed the manilla folder with quite a bit of information on her. “Now, Miss. Danvers, I’m going to need you to give me a definitive reason why you were late. If I don’t get a reason, I’m afraid this interview is going to have to be cut short. Now I don’t want to do that but, I will have to. Just give me any reason.” she sighs before responding, “My car broke down. I had to walk here.” “So it had nothing to do with your sister?” I question. “How do you know I have a sister?” she looked very confused. I realize that that was not something normal. For me, it had become quite normal to know so much information about someone for security reasons. “I’m sorry Miss. Danvers, I like to collect information about everyone I employ before I hire them just to be safe. I have a lot of enemies Miss. Danvers. I just like to be safe. Don’t worry, your information won’t get out and our info only goes to a certain extent especially now since our tech guy is on vacation.” “How much do you know?” she asks looking worried. “Well, we know your sister was in the hospital recently for a couple of months, we also know your father died recently in a car crash...I’m sorry for your loss, I know it must be very hard.” She sighs before saying, “It’s okay. My sister was having a flashback. That’s why I couldn’t be here...” I give her a reassuring smile, “It’s okay. but next time, please don’t lie to me.” she nods her head. we got back to the interview and she answered some basic questions which she answered very nicely. “Well, Miss. Danvers, I think you’re hired!” “Really?! Oh, thank you so much!” She says ecstatically shaking my hand. She has this big smile that makes you melt. We finish up a couple of things and she grabs her bags and leaves.

AMI

I was making my way out of school and all I could hear was Ana Price and her posse talking about me. “I can’t believe SHE survived! I bet she didn’t even try to help her dad!” I just kept walking. No one cared she was saying these things. Her family is a bunch of bigshots around here so why would anyone intervene? It’s messed up, I know but, I just have to live on. One of Ana’s “friends” said, “I bet she’s gonna like...guilt everyone into liking her.” All of them just agree with her what the fuck?! These people are disgusting. I make it out of the school and I’m stopped by Ana. “Heyyyyy.....girl...” she says. “You know my name, Ana. Look, my head is killing me. I just want to go home.” I tried to push past her but to no avail. “Listen bitch, I don’t care what you went through. You aren’t special and you never will be.” she pushed me. I was getting ready to punch her until Luna stepped in. “What’s going on here?!” she had an angry look on her face. “Oh great, the older one is here.” Ana said trying to make it seem she said under her breath but we all knew she wanted us to hear it. “Excuse me?! Do not use that tone with me girl!” My sister snapped at her. They had gotten into a heated argument that lasted for a while. Ana’s father arrived and joined the argument. Luna and I tried to walk away but the guy grabs Luna’s wrist. He started to squeeze her wrist and I tried to get him to let go. Nothing was working until a girl came up and punched the guy. He staggers and we run to the car. I looked back and saw the girl who punched him in a hoodie running away. Who was that girl?
