DISCLAIMER: YATTA YATTTA YATTA on to the story :)
Sydney stormed into her office yelling a quick hello to Karen whom
she caught a glimpse of out of the corner of her eye. As she headed
back out the door to catch her first day of class she heard Karen
asking for a minute. Sydney didn't have time and simply yelled
back, "Karen I'll be back in 3 hours just have Nigel take care of it."
As Sydney walked back to her office 3 hours later she began to
contemplate that she didn't understand kids today. Her class
consisted of the standard twenty-eight students and like always
about only half would survive but this year she highly doubted it.
Almost the entire class had zoned out half way through her lecture.
She had found wishing for Nigel's presence to make everything
balance. No she wasn't going to think like that Nigel and her were
no good together except as co-workers and that was that. Even
though as she slowed her pace as she began walking down the hall
to her office she began to wish more and more that their relation
ship was more than just co-workers. "Oof!" Sydney landed not so
gracefully on her butt as a man in a black suit helped her back on
her fit. She immediately noticed that he carried a box apparently
containing papers while a man behind him held a laptop. "I am
sorry ma'am". They began to walk towards the stairs and Sydney
simply shrugged and walked into her office but stopped dead in her
tracks and her eyes darted around the office. She could hear Karen
sobbing in her office while it looked like four grown men dressed in
black were packing up Nigel's desk.
"What exactly do you think you are doing?!" Sydney saw the men
stop at her yelling and move away from the desk. At that moment
another man also dressed in a hunter green business suit come out
of her office. He extended his handed to Sydney, "Good morning
Ms. Fox. My name is Richard Gets, may we step into your office."
Sydney shook his hand but turned to the men standing by Nigel's
desk, "Don't touch anything else." Karen was slumped in one of
the chairs and Sydney decided to take a seat beside her and hold her
hand, "Karen are alright sweetie." Karen just sobbed harder.
Sydney turned to look at Mr. Gets, "What did you tell her." Mr.
Gets moved Sydney's desk lamp and sat at the edge of her desk,
"Ms. Fox I am sorry to meet you in such a circumstance but I am
the lawyer hired by Mr. Bailey to execute his last will and
testament." Sydney's world shook, last will and testament ran
through her head so fast that she landed on the chair with a thud,
"What?" was the only thing she could utter as she could feel the
giant tear drops beginning to form in her eyes. At that moment
Karen ran out of the office crying louder. Sydney tried to get up to
follow her but she was frozen in place, numb from the news. She
heard Mr. Gets call her name and she snapped out of her trance,
later she would deal with the pain later now she needed to hear
what he had to say.
