Strothing through the hot afternoon sun, I came to a stop at an open stall. The sun beemed so bright that day that I had to make a stop at an open stall to refresh myself. I work at Meyer's corporation as an editor. My name is Frederick Cane and this is my story. I am an illigitimate son of billionaire mogul Pete James and Nina Cane. My father had a one night stand with my mother as she worked at a bar he happened to frequent at the time it happened. My father never knew of my existence because my mother never told him about me, reason being at the time she figured she was pregnant, he was already married to Jessica Chase and besides it wasn't like he and my mom were a thing after all, all it was was a one night stand and nothing more. While growing up, with various enquiries, I was able to get my mother to tell me who my father was and as such I watched him from a distance. My friend Tim, he owns and runs his own restaurant, and sometimes i drop by just to say hi, and you know eat too. We met in middle school, and we went to high school and college together and have since become best buddies, and he has on countless occasions told me to make my existence known to him, my father, and my responses to that has always been that I can't just waltz into his life claiming to be his son, as it made no sense whatsoever, to top it all, he may never remember my mom. It was really sunny that day that I had to make a stop at the stall to drink a chilled orange juice, while sitting down, I pondered on how I was to maneuver the scorching sun, the beeping of my phone drew me from my thoughts, and the caller was none other than Anna Ree, my fiancee or so I thought. The thought of Anna made me forget for a bit the hot sun. Anna and I met in college and have been together for three years now, we were planning to get married and I have been making lots of savings in order to finance our marriage. Working as an editor in the Meyer's corporation offers me a good pay plus, other things I do to lead a comfortable life.
I picked up the call without hesitation and instantly my phone beeped and it was a call from my boss Peter, who was the son of James Meyer ceo of Meyer's corporation, I ended the call with Anna, promising to call back, thus answering my bosses call. I was expected to rush back to work as there were articles for editing waiting for me at work. The stall where I was wasn't that far my the company and I decided to walk down, upon arrival at the company's entrance, I saw Anna walking out of the company, I thought maybe she came looking for me at work, since we were unable to talk, but then I was shocked with what I saw, a man walked towards her and planted a kiss on her lips and thus guy was none other than Peter my boss, and rival in love, I suppose, I walked towards them, but Anna didn't see me, as she got into One of Peter's car and was driven away by Peter's chauffeur Don. I was hurt and angry but i couldn't embarrass myself in front of the company, I walked in the the company furious, I noticed a smirk on Peter's face, indicating that he saw me before kissing her, I didn't want to say anything to him, i walked in and got myself immensed in work, I worked for the remaining time, the chiming of my phone, drew my attention off work and it was a message from Anna, asking to meet, at a bar down town. After work, I headed to the bar, upon arriving at the bar, I saw Anna sitted inside. She wore, a beautiful red gown, which accentuated her beauty, she had her hair falling down her shoulders, she complimented her dress with a beautiful black sandals and a red lippy making her stand out, wouldn't lie, she was exceptionally hot and beautiful.
When I walked into the bar and towards her, I sensed her distant and awkward behavior, well I already saw her that afternoon. I noticed she wasn't wearing the ring I gave her, well I still walked to her, ordered something to eat as I was starving, I kinda sensed and knew why she came, but still wanted to hear her say it, it wasn't long, when she dropped the ring on the table, telling me, she never loved me, I mean all those years, she was playing me, or was it because Peter was way richer than I would ever be, I was hurt ,angry and devastated, I couldn't believe her, I mean I love her, I gave her all she wanted, i worked so hard to provide for her and I let her be herself but what dud u get in return, heartbreak, she walked out of the bar without even looking back. After paying, I left the bar, I sighted Anna my now ex fiancee and Peter my boss making out not so far away, I turned my eyes to other direction and called for a cab. Peter knew very well about Anna and I, I in fact had been the person who introduced them to each other in one of our company's dinner party, i suppose that was when it all started. Am hurt that i got dumped by a girl i gave everything to, but what hurt me the most was the fact that my boss decided to fire me the next day. Was still as sleep, when my phone chimed a notification, popping my eyes open, I realised that I was late, I rushed to work not bothering to check the notification, upon arrival at the company's entrance, I realised that I wasn't allowed entrance into the company, there and then I discovered that I had become jobless, I called my boss it turned out that I have been black listed. I walked over to a stall not so far away, where I had the time to read through the content of the message which my now former boss sent to me without mixing words, telling me not to come to work again and in bold,YOU'RE FIRED.
I sat down at a stool, furiously wondering what I did wrong, when I sighted a magazine dropped by another customer on one of the tables at the stall, I picked it up knowing fully well that it was a magazine from the Meyer's corporation and it was published that morning. I flipped through the pages and realised that under the editors list was the name of another person, meaning that someone else was listed as the editor and it was none other than Anna Ree, I was shocked, and my shock was replaced with anger. I pondered, how could they do that to me, I mean I did the whole editing and someone else got the glory, I know life wasn't fair, but did they have to go that extent, it's not like I hurt them in any way, just why, I was so caught up in my thoughts that I didn't hear my phone ring, the customer beside me had to call my attention to my ringing phone and it was a call from my mother, who sounded so desperate, and i had no choice but to rush home, I mean, she was all I had at the moment and she meant the world to me, I called for a cab and left the stall
