You've grown taller!" Nathan replied, disengaging from the hug. Nathan took a seat while Tyler sat on his desk. "So, how are you doing? How was your flight?" Nathan asked, showing genuine interest. "Well, my flight was okay, and I was doing just fine until some idiot in the hallway bumped into me and called me stupid. The audacity!" Tyler said, with a hint of annoyance in his tone. "Well, I don't know, are you sure you didn't do anything stupid?" Nathan asked, bursting into laughter. He had known Tyler since he was a little kid, and he sometimes acted irrationally, even though he was already in his final year of college. "Dude! I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that. So, hmm, Nathan, I was wondering, you know, maybe I could go to your vacation house in Malibu for this summer break. Care to join me?" Tyler said, glancing sideways. Nathan smirked. They had already discussed it, and he already knew his answer. "There's no way I'm going to let you while away your time! You'll work here as an intern until the summer break is over," Nathan exclaimed, motioning to the piles of paper on his table. "No!" "Yes... and you're starting tomorrow." "Don't do this to me, Nathan! Please!" Tyler whined, feigning a cry. Nathan smiled. Although Tyler was all grown up now, he was still that baby pew-pew to him. "You should probably go home now and settle in." "There's no way I'm staying with you. I'm staying at the luxury resort," Tyler replied, giving him a playful dirty look. "All right, fine," Nathan answered reluctantly, throwing him the keys. "But no throwing any parties, understood?" Tyler stood up and gave Nathan one last look. Nathan grinned. "Be early tomorrow... and be sure to drop by Lucas's." Tyler smirked at him and walked out. Nathan waited for a moment before finally grabbing his phone and calling Brian. Brian answered after the first beep as if he had been waiting for his call. "Where were we?" Nathan said in a low, almost whispering tone. . . . Brixlee Cyrup sat on her bed, completely still, feeling the touch of the cold hexagonal slate tile floor on her bare feet. She cocked her eyebrows, trying to make sense of what she was seeing. A minute ago, she received an email from one of the biggest tech companies in Texas, Grey-Tech. The email said: "Good day, Miss Cyrup, We were impressed by your resume, and we would like to offer you the position of secretary to the CEO at our company..." She didn't finish reading the email before dropping her phone. She couldn't bring herself to believe it. It just didn't make any sense. The same company that had rejected her this morning at the interview was now offering her a job. As a secretary? To the CEO? She was sure the heavens had finally smiled upon her. Her eyes sparkled with excitement, and her smile broadened from ear to ear. She was on cloud nine. It was hard for her to believe she finally had a well-paying job, and that she would soon be moving out of this hellhole with cracked walls. The peeling paint and the small spout of water bubbling up in one corner of the room would be a thing of the past. She took a hot
