Ouch.

Maya proceeded to knock on the door but got interrupted by a call from her boss, where she worked as an assistant for him as the CEO of a well known listed company called, Flores. Responsible for clothing designs, Makeup and Hair. There is many categories, for example, A salon, A clothing branded, Makeupp, Brand deals, skincare etc.

She picked it up out of frustration, she had been made to work overtime for the past few weeks.

“ Maya, I am sorry but I willl need you to work overtime tonight again.” Her boss said.

“ We have landed a major deal with Louis Vuitton. I’m sorry but this is all for our benefits” He continued

“ Fine, I’ll do it, but the pay better be good.” She emphasised as they both laughed her it off.

He cut off the line, and Maya knocked on the gate. Casey opened the door with a warm radiant smile on her face. Maya went in for a hug as they both fell down. They got up and laughed it off but they but knew the fall hurt.

“Let’s go inside.”

Casey suggested.

“Yeah, we should.”

Maya replied, voice cracking due to the pain. As she tried to walk, she felt a sudden pain in her lower back.

“Ow, ouch “ She screamed in pain.

She got inside with the support of Casey, where they called one of their other friend, Rachel. She worked as a nurse in the hospital a few minutes away from where Maya lives. Casey explained what happened and Maya explained how the pain felt. Afterwards, Rachel explained what to do.

“Casey, would you mind giving Maya a massage, wherever she says it hurts, meanwhile I’ll come over with medication for her to use.” She instructed.

“Sure.” Casey replied.

“But aren’t you on duty right now?”

“No, I am not, no more questions, just do what I told you to do I’m on my way already.

“Right.” Casey replied with a mix of sarcasm and excitement.

15 minutes later, the door bell rang.

“Oh it must be Rachel.” Maya said as she groaned in pain.

Casey went over to open the door, but it wasn’t Rachel. It was the Amazon delivery guy. He came to deliver the package sent to Casey by her aunt. She took it and went back inside with a big, heavy box in her hands.

“Was it Rachel?” Maya asked excited.

“No, It was the delivery guy.”

“ What’s that,. Did aunt Miranda send you something again, its like the fifth time this month.”

“Tell me about it.” Casey said sarcastically.

“What do you think might be inside there, like I mean the box is really big. Isn’t it heavy for you.’

She tried to stand up from her seat.

“Ahhh!” She screamed.

“It hurts.”

“Why did you try to stand up?” Casey asked, a bit concerned.

The bell rang again.

“It’s probably Rachel.” Maya said, whilst in agony.

Casey went to the check who it was.
