Also, I write for fun. If my grammer and spelling aren't 100, I'm ok with that. Feel free to R and R. THANKS!!!
Prologue...
Melissa O'Toole had what some would call a perfect life. At 30 she had a great career for a Fortune 500 company. Melissa lived in a great townhouse in Brooklyn, NY. She had a great family, and wonderful friends. Melissa was lucky enough to not have to worry about money. Yes, Melissa had what some people would call a perfect life. Or was it?
It was 3am. 3:17am to be exact. Melissa would know. She was staring at the clock on her nightstand for close to an hour. Once again Mel was awake in the middle of the night. It has been this way for months now. Waking up nightly, having trouble falling back to sleep, tossing and turning. At first Mel chalked it up to stress at work. She was working on a big account, and the pressure was on from her bosses. The stress subsided at work, yet she still could not sleep. Melissa tried everything, from a new mattress, to sleeping pills. For some reason, Melissa just couldn't sleep. So, as Melissa had done so many times before, she dove into her work.
Melissa was a financial advisorr. Melissa helped people, rich people, with their banking and budgets. They don't have time or the common sense to pay their bills or taxes properly. She also helps them invest their money, so that they don't lose it. It was a job she found rewarding and challenging. Sure Melissa loved her job. Sometimes though, the job was a bit too much. The hours were crazy, as was the travel. Her boss e-mailed her all hours of the day and night. So when Melissa found an e-mail from her boss at 3:30 in the morning, she wasn't surprised...
Melissa dear, can you please come to my office first thing in the morning? I have a very exciting opportunity to discuss with you!
Sue
Susan Geller, Melissa's boss, was tough as nails. But she was fair, and her and Melissa worked well together. Melissa replied to Sue that she would see her in her office bright and early at 9:00. Then Melissa once again tried to fall asleep. As sleep finally overcame her, she wondered what the exciting opportunity was? Little did Melissa know that her meeting in the morning was going to change her life forever!
