"And that's all\, don't forget to leave a like\, subscribe and share this video peace out *dabbed*"

Oops... I'm terribly sorry, you might be confused about what she's saying right now right? or you already have the idea of what she is right now.

Her name Is Rhianna Allura, she just turned 25 this year, and of course, she's a YouTuber, famous but hidden in a name or Code R.A.

She lives alone in an apartment, where no one knows about her existence, even her own family doesn't know where she is either, but she still keeps in touch with them on skype and sending them money for her sibling's allowances and any school funds if they have one.

Ok... let's not talk about those boring stuff... she just started to become a YouTuber at 18 and boi, it was hard for her, but she does like gaming. gaming was part of her life that keeps her company, and she wants to let the world know how gaming transformed her, but one thing that bothers her is that...

It's not enough for her to stay alive.

You know what I mean, so... she has no choice but to go out, to a place where she hates, a place she doesn't want to be seen. So, she grabbed her documents for applying, wearing her outfit that makes her look more professional, she thinks and opened the door, where she has to conquer her nightmare.

But little did she know, that's stepping out of her door will change her life forever.

Rhianna's POV.

I just got accepted\, and boi it was terrifying\, to be honest\, the manager was looking at me with no expression at all\, and just said\, "you're fired" and that's it\, no interview\, the heck is wrong with these people\, I just shut myself for 3 years from this world\, and they never change a bit\, *sigh* now I regret being out here. I should have stayed in my apartment playing games\, and anyway\, I'm just here to make money\, so I could buy the latest Gaming PC set\, so no turning back now\, I have to be more independent and never trust anyone\, if I have enough money\, I will disappear from this world and never come out again...

Right now, I'm standing in front of the company I applied to, my anxiety kicked in, but I have to be cool, just for a month anna, endure it while it lasts, as I step inside the building, many eyes lock into me, I was so nervous but no one can see it, I been training myself to not show any expression, I didn't mind them, and walk my way to my assigned workplace, and my nightmare was just the beginning.

You know how many papers I printed out?, scanned documents, editing, even worse... serving coffee to my co-workers, and yes, this is the reason why I don't want to work at all, they just treated me like an assistant since I'm new, and don't get me wrong, I'm ok with it, but I'm worried that if they will do the same to the other newbies like me. I just have to endure it afterward...

"Hey, newbie, get me some coffee"

She said, I just nod and went to the station, but, we ran out of coffee, I've asked one of the co-workers where to get a batch of it, he told me on the 3rd floor, and yeah... actually, I'm at the fifth floor, and this is a hella big building tbh, so I went to the staircase, actually, they told me to use the staircase, and to my surprise, its under repair, I mean, hell no...

But there is an elevator, but my co-workers told me not... I mean NOT TO GO THERE, I don't know what they mean, but if they want coffee so I have to risk it, I pressed some buttons, actually, it's my first time riding an elevator, and it opened, I saw a man in though, but I don't care, I just went in as the elevator door closes behind me.

Unknown's POV.

The elevator door opened and I saw a girl. She seems familiar\, but I didn't mind. Then to my surprise\, she went in\, the nerve she has\, then the elevator closes\, as I looked at her\, she just stays quiet\, *sigh* girls these days\, I will fire her after this\, then she turned around...

As I thought.

Is she trying to seduce me?...

"Um, stranger, may I ask you something?"

Stranger?!, what the... she doesn't know me, or is she trying to act innocent in front of me, well, heh, that won't work on me, I nod, just to know what she's up to...

"Do you know how to use this elevator?"

Wait...wait...wait...wait, hold on, this girl, called me stranger, and ask if I know how to use this elevator, wherein the heck part of the world she comes from?... but as I look into her eyes, she seems serious. So she really didn't know she's talking to the CEO.

"What floor are you going to?"

I asked, she looked at me, as I was drawn into her eyes, she really looks familiar...

"3rd floor," she said

"Press the no. 3 button" I answered

"Oh... I see" she said

Then she went near the buttons and pressed the no. 3 button...

"Huh? why it's not working? "she said

She pressed it again

"Is this thing broken?" She asked

She pressed it again

"Don't press it many times or..." I warned

"Why?" She asked as she pressed it...again

And the elevator stops...

"This will happen," I said...

"What happens?" She asked

"You broke the elevator" I answered

"What?!," she panicked

"Don't panic, just press the SOS button" I said

"Ok..." she said as she pressed the SOS button

The alarming turn on, as the girl freaked out and hugged me... the heck, but as she firmly grabs my waist.

"Ah... I'm sorry stranger! that surprised me" she said as she let go of me

"No worries lets just wait"

As I said that, she went to the corner, crouching, as I felt her depressing aura...

"I broke the elevator," she said

I almost laugh at her reaction, but I felt bad at the same time, this girl is interesting...

"So you must be new here right?" I asked

She turned her head around and nod

" Please stand up, its not your fault," I said as I tried to make her feel better

"It is my fault, I'm so getting fired this time... hey, can we keep this a secret between us? "she asked

Oh... this girl is really interesting...

"Ok... sure, so what brings you to the 3rd floor?" I asked

"Oh... one of my co-workers ordered me to get her coffee but we ran out so I have to go to the 3rd floor to get some," she said.

"Oh... why would you do that? You should ask one of the staff from the food department to deliver it there" I said

"They told me that one of their staff is sick so I have to get one myself," she said

"Oh... I see, your co-workers are hard on you huh?" I said

"Yeah... do you know how many documents I received so far on the first day?\, it was tiring\, but they just look down on me since I'm new\, and I'm ok with it\, I'm just worried if they will continue this to the other newbie like me *sigh*"

Hmmm... I guess I have to talk to the manager after hearing this girl complains, hmm... I wonder...

"What's your name?" I asked

"Oh... my name is Rhianna Allura," she said

My head hurts as she mentions that name... Rhianna?... It sounds so familiar... why can't I recall it?...

"Um...stranger, are you ok?" She asked

"Nope I'm fine, just a little headache" I answered

"You should rest, you might be stressed," she said

"I take note of that," I said

Then the elevator started moving...

"Yes... finally, the elevator started working, I hope she won't mind that the coffee will be late" she said

Then she smiled, an image of my mind appeared in my head, the girl from high school, with bandages in her face, smiling at me...

Is she...

The one I been looking for?...

Then the elevator door opened as she went out...

"Thank you, stranger, let's keep this a secret ok?, I hope we'll never meet again, bye" she waved at me

I waved back as the elevator door closes...

"George, I want you to investigate Rhianna Allura for me please," I said as I touch the earpiece

"Yes sir, right away"

*meanwhile*

"The information you seek Sir," George said

As he lends me the folder, containing all the information about that girl... I grabbed it and opened it, my eyes widened, my thoughts are right, she's the girl I've been looking for 5 years, as I flipped all of her documents, all of her information, location, even her school form...

Finally, after all these years, I found you, anna.

Rhianna's POV.

Phew... I've survived the first day... now I have to survive the next day as well... ugh!... it's so frustrating, well I have no choice but to endure it and get this over with, the set is about to be sold out and I have to get it...

As I went out of the building, I felt something or someone is watching me, let's just say, it's a girl instinct or it's just me, well I don't care as I hailed a taxi and drove me to my apartment.
