episode 2

The next morning, as I was pulling into the driveway of my office building, I notice a young woman standing at the front of the building entrance. I parked the car and was locking it, when I saw Ms. Pat my secretary was opening up and welcoming the young woman in.

My law firm is not big, it has a total of 25 employees these employees are divided into five teams, the teams consists of a lawyer, two detectives, a secretary and an assistant.

I am head of the organization and I only do the most difficult of cases, this gives me enough time to focus on my own personal matters. I walked into ms. Pat office which is in front of mine's, to be greeted with a sadden smile and toun "good morning sir" I looked at her "you said it but you don't mean it, are you not happy to see me?" I said mischievously trying to lift her her sprite, "what got my oh so ever happy friend looking like the world is about to end?"

Before she could open her mouth I knew was had happened. "There is a young lady here to see you......"

she looked like she was having a hard time stopping herself from crying. "She's just.." I cut her off " I know she called me last night." she looked at me confused "how does she have you number?" A good question for not many people have my number. "I have no idea, but I will be should to find out." I looked at my office door, "get her something to eat also." "I'm already on that." she was a bit smug about it.

"Good morning miss. Masterson." I said it out of manners and to let her know I was there. She looked down hearted, like a child who's pet had just died, "good morning," her voice was smaller than yesterday's. "did you get some sleep?" I was now sitting across from her at my desk. Her eyes were cast back downwards like a little girl how could not lie.

At that time there was a knock at the door, it was ms Pat with our breakfast, "thanks" I said as she laid it out. "You should eat to keep your strength up." She had a faint smile as she spoke to miss. Masterson. miss. Masterson nodded and began to eat.

I looked at ms. Pat as she left the room looking satisfied like only a mother can. She is the mother of two daughters one is a detective at the firm and the other is a doctor. She is fifty-seven years old and has been married for the last twenty something years, she is a motherly figure to all of us within the organization.

Her husband is just like her, always ready to adopt someone. He is retired police commissioner and he now runs a selfdefense class, I had made all the employees go to his classes, this line of work is not easy after all. Hunn, but I do often wonder what their reaction will be if they know about my other work, they most likely will be mad and disappointed.
