I clamped my slightly sweaty hands tightly around my device, piercing my gaze straight ahead of me. Tears stained my scarlet cheeks as fumes whistled through my ears. I wished I could walk even faster as relentless storm clouds began forming on top of my head as I brain-stormed ideas on ways to give them a piece of my mind.

I navigated through the polluted streets speeding past the facade-faced pedestrians making my way towsrds the mesmerising skyscrapers where many earn their daily bread and butter. Many including me, well that was until...

"You're fired."

That's all that I could process before my mind became clouded.

'What? Why me? It wasn't even my fault for selling our ideas to our rival companies!'

Ok maybe it was when we look back at it but there's no turning back now that the deed is done.

Is there...?

--------Meanwhile--------
"Hey have you heard that our CEO was found dead in his office last night?"

"Really?"

"Yeah and so far they haven't found any clues on who the murderer is. They left no trace. The murderer is quite clever it seems. "

"Well why thank you."
