Since the events of that night, there was not a single calm that Janeth could feel. Fear, worry and guilt kept haunting him. "Janeth, the boss is calling for you," Martin's voice startled Janeth. "Did I do something wrong?" Janeth asked. It was unusual for the boss where she worked to call him. "I don't know. It's just that you've been looking bad these past few days. Even your job ..." Martin looked at the pile of papers beside Janeth. "Oh, my God. I don't think you're doing well. I'll give you some advice. No matter how big your problem is. Never bring it into the office. If you keep getting carried away. You could be in danger of being fired. Do you want that to happen?" asked Martin. Janeth shook her head quickly. Martin and Janeth worked at the company at the same time. They are both good friends. Martin treats Janeth well. In fact, the two of them often spend time together in the company cafeteria. "Meet the boss. After that I will meet you. Remember, if you make a mistake, you just apologize immediately. Don't argue. Got it!?!" Martin reminded Janeth again. "Okay. Thank you. I'll go first," said Janeth. She walked hesitantly. In her heart Janeth believed she had made a mistake. She's been out of work for the past few days. She must have made a mistake. Janeth slowly opened the door. She came in and stood at the old man's desk with his head partially bald on top. He was busy taking the phone. Janeth waited while looking at her feet. "Is this your job?" He threw a cooperation proposal in front of Janeth. "Right," Janeth replied after examining the proposal. The man looked at Janeth in disbelief. He took a deep breath, then opened the proposal. On a page he stopped, then showed a number there. "See, your mistakes are small and only a number. But have you forgotten that zero in finance means a lot?" Janeth looked at the numbers. Right. She has added one zero after the number so that the number changes many times. "We'll be at a huge loss if you add a zero or omit it. It has to match. Lucky I got to read it. Otherwise, we'll be broke!" The man's voice began to rise. Janeth was well aware of her mistake. She must have accidentally added a point. It's hard to focus. Even though the numbers in the Excel file are correct. How could she have made a mistake anywhere else. "I'm sorry. I'll fix it," Janeth said earnestly. "Okay. You read and correct it carefully. I don't like mistakes. You understand!?!" "Okay sir." Janeth took the cooperation proposal. Then she came out of her superior's room with a languid face. Martin who had been waiting of course came straight to Janeth's table. "How? What happened?" asked Martin worriedly. "You're right. I made a mistake. You'll see." Janeth showed the proposal. As an employee who is an expert in the same field, of course Martin could immediately find Janeth's fault. A small mistake with big consequences. "I don't know. Why am I like this. I've always done well." Janeth looked very frustrated. "How about we eat first. It's break time. I'll treat you to ice cream. Usually you'll feel better after eating these foods," said Martin. Janeth looked at the clock on her wrist. It was true, the break time had just arrived. "Okay. Let's have fun," said Janeth with more enthusiasm. Martin smiled when he saw Janeth's spirit had returned. The two of them headed to the cafeteria and chose the usual table where the two of them sat. Then as usual Martin will order the food. He had memorized Janeth's favorite food. Soon he returned with two trays of food. "This is your mood booster," Martin said as he held out a bowl of ice cream in front of Janeth. Delicious chocolate ice cream. Seeing that Janeth immediately laughed. "You always know what I want. Even though we just met," said Janeth. "Of course. I'll always understand you," Martin said. "So sweet," Janeth said cheerfully again. The mood that had deteriorated earlier was now enthusiastic again. They enjoyed the food until it was time for work again. Janeth immediately read the previous proposal and marked where she needed to improve. Then, Janeth turned to the computer desk. After her mood returned, Janeth was very focused on work. She just needed to wait a few more minutes for it to finish. Unknowingly Janeth worked into the night. Everyone has gone home. Janeth went to the toilet for a bit. That's when Martin came into her room to take him home with him. But seeing that everyone in Janeth's room wasn't there, Martin thought Janeth had gone home first. "That woman," said Martin and closed the door. That's when Janeth emerged from the toilet. She looked around the room and realized that no one was there. She looked at the clock and saw that it was an hour ago. Janeth immediately returned to her seat. She finishes the rest of the work faster. For some reason she suddenly felt uncomfortable working alone. The sound of paper falling startled Janeth. Turns out it was a piece of paper that slid down another employee's desk. Janeth immediately regained her focus. Honestly, she was scared. Therefore she had to finish and go home immediately. "A little more. A little more," Janeth muttered. Two more pages. Someone seemed to pass behind Janeth. The feeling gave Janeth the chills for a moment. But Janeth ignored that and stayed focused, until it finally finished. Janeth immediately grabbed her bag which was on the floor. But suddenly the sound of footsteps could be heard throughout the room. A black shadow was also running behind him. Janeth immediately grabbed her bag and ran out of her room. It was dark outside. There was only the sound of the reflection of Janeth's footsteps there. Every now and then ghost images in horror movies distract Janeth and increase her fear. Janeth screamed as a pair of feet were in front of her. With great fear Janeth raised her gaze. "You realize what time it is?" Max asked. Janeth immediately hugged Max. He was relieved to be picked up. Usually Max never picks her up at work, if she doesn't ask. Janeth was surprised, she let go of her arms and when she saw Max's face it was Jennifer's face that was crushed. Janeth immediately screamed in fright. She ran into the elevator and pressed the ground floor button shakily. This time Janeth was sure that Jennifer would become a ghost and seek revenge. Her betrayal will surely make her soul curious. As soon as the elevator doors opened, Jennifer immediately got into her car. Surprisingly the car keys didn't enter properly. Until a pair of hands banged on the car window. Janeth screamed in terror and then drove her car roughly out of the parking lot.
