Life Unscripted

Chapter 10: slums



Oceana glanced at the stack of papers she was made to handle, everyone else was busy but why was she to handle this tasks all on her own plus she had to take them up all by herself. "Don't be offended we have alot at hand" Kiro apologized for the nth time, she glanced at him briefly before walking to the dispenser which was at the corner of the office, it had a water dispenser and a tray of different tea's and snacks

She made herself a cup of bitter coffee and walked back to her seat she sipped her coffee while she worked, she was smart else how was she supposed to understand the bogus terms in each documents

The more she read

The more she could feel an headache coming on

And what was this about Ai's and technological nonsense

She thought as she continued to work

She finished after her 8th cup of coffee, she stretched her limbs to ease the tension of having sat so long before she alas stood up and made to the elevator

"Oceana!" The staffs from the other units waved, she glared at them they were the ones in charge of the documents in her hand however the documents had ended up on her laps

What should have taken a whole team to work on was painstakingly done by her

She was thoroughly pissed

She got into the elevator not once sparing them a glance, the elevator shut itself and they ran off to the gaming department

"Oceana is so amazing" Jenny grinned widely she was happy and impressed meanwhile the others weren't, they visible glared at Jenny and the other members of her department who were all clearly evading work "you sure do owe her" Liam blurted out the words coldly and Jenny nodded, she wasn't stingy and knowing Oceana had helped her so much she surely wasn't going to be indifferent hence they rushed back to organize a surprise for Oceana

Oceana on the other hand arrived the secretary department, she glanced at the over a dozen secretaries clad in uniform corporate wears looking prim and proper while she looked out of place in the whole office

She didn't know who to give the documents to "secretary Ray" someone whispered pointing to a tall slender man who had his head lowered working. Oceana walked up to Raymond's desk, the other secretaries couldn't help glancing at her

Who wasn't familiar with this temperamental secretary? He was so annoying no one dared to work with him anymore

They could die of over exhaustion

"Here's the documents" Oceana placed the stack of documents on the desk and turned to walk away " are you just leaving?" Raymond's snake like eyes searched her, she turned slightly glaring daggers at him

If looks could kill he would surely be dead

"If you have any issues, the logistics department are just a call away they are in charge of those not me" her voice was cold, her gaze stared pointedly at him

She was angry

Very angry

No one was paying her extra's for all this troubles

"Sit and review them" with that he lowered his head and continued working

A few minutes passed by and when he pulled his head up, she was gone

"...…."

In the game room Oceana stared at the basket full of snacks and other junks including different types of tea, her eyes searched for something in particular however she caught no sight of it, she glanced at the bunch of logistics brats before sinking into her seat

She ignored them

And begun working on her character

Liam glanced at her with conflicted emotions, he had some key tasks that needed her expertise however seeing her foul mood he didn't dare test his luck

She never smiled

Always with a neutral look

How then when she was angry?

Tammy and scarlet burst into laughter pleased at Liam's dilemma

"Otto ask Oceana a few questions" Liam whispered to Otto, he really didn't dare go forward to ask however he could use Otto as his scapegoat. Otto on the other hand wasn't foolish, he glanced at Oceana and immediately declined

She looked like she wanted to murder

That kind of anger was akin to a serial killer

He was sure if she had a sniper in hand, the logistics department would be covered in blood

"I can't either…" Teo declined hurriedly seeing Liam's gaze settle on him even benji turned away hurriedly

He really didn't want to test the unknown

"What's so scary" penny took the draft and walked up to Oceana "Oceana….." she froze under Oceana's murderous gaze, she swallowed hard as her legs trembled "money" Oceana voiced out irritably and penny ran off to empty her bag of all the cash she had as if hypnotized "here" she handed Oceana the few cash she had , Oceana accepted it and walked to the dispenser to make herself another cup of black coffee however she didn't touch the draft

Penny could only helplessly return to Liam's side demanding for her money back "I didn't collect it….. you gave it to her willingly, go collect it back" Liam pointed at Oceana who was waking back to her seat and penny frowned even more "your giving me back my money…. How will I go home then" penny almost cried, she felt so wronged "walk" Otto pointed and Penny glared at him

Raymond stared at the secretaries who all looked pale and worn out, he frowned clearly displeased and amused

He had called on Oceana on purpose, his snake eyes glinted with something sinister

This scene made the other secretaries pale in fear "review it all for any mistakes" he pointed out and they nodded before scattering like birds. He stood up picked up a folder and walked to the CEO's office

The man behind the desk twirled the glass of wine in his hand whilst staring intently at Raymond "you can handle the rest I'm thinking" Axel waved his hand at Raymond who comfortably sat staring intently at Axel with his snake like eyes "what's got you so worked up?" Raymond asked curiously "it's got nothing to do with you….." Axel tilted his head at Raymond coldly, he wasn't pleased to see Raymond in his office so early "make me a cup of coffee" Axel waved his hand off and turned his seat to face the floor to ceiling glass outside "I have other things to attend to" Raymond frowned as he casually stood up and walked out "sir Raymond" the female worker at the door lowered her head, seeing Raymond's snake like eyes and his ungodly figure she could feel her heart beating wildly

Raymond merely glanced at her briefly before waking away to attend to his own business

Oceana clocked out earlier after a long day of working Non stop, she made to the supermarket to get some groceries and other things she might need, she had other things to do hence she shopped quickly after which she headed out hailed a taxi which dropped her off at a certain location. She got off the taxi paid the bills and walked towards a run down building which looked like it'd collapse at any moment

"Oceana!" The men smiled in welcome raising their beer bottles her way, she nodded and continued to walk in, there was several people scattered on all ends doing their own things

Smoking, drinking and doing all sort of things that should be illegal, the faces were both familiar and unfamiliar. Some stared at her with admiration while others stared at her with hate or unfamiliarity their eyes probing whilst whispering to others to find out who she was

This was the slums
