Broken and bruised - Season 1 - Episode 59

Melanie’s loud scream has attracted the attention of the three ladies whose offices are close to the rest room
“Did you all hear that” one asked
“Yes someone just screamed like she was in pain”

“Who could it be at this very time, was someone attacked or what”

“I need to see” one of them wants to go see herself but the two stop her
“Don’t go, what if she was attacked and now the person ends up doing the same to you”

“But that scream….it was a scream of someone who needed help”
“Are you the only one in this big building, or are you the owner…..it’s not our business as long as we’re safe so chill…we didn’t hear anything” just then Jane comes knocking at their office

“Hey Jane”
“Hi girls, did you all hear that”
“Hear what”
“Someone screaming….. I heard it from my office down and it was coming from this direction”

“Sorry we were talking and we didn’t hear, maybe it’s something outside this building”
“I’m very sure but it’s fine…..continue with your work” she comes out of the office but she’s not convinced just yet, she looks around and nothing looked abnormal, she decides to head over to the reception area where she finds Janet with an empty glass in front of her, she seems to be busy and occupied with whatever she was doing

“Hey Janet”
“What’s up Jane…. need my help with something”

“I thought I heard someone scream around here, did you hear it”
“Nope….you’re only being paranoid, I’m sure it was only in your head because even if someone screams from out of this building or any where around here, I would be the the first person to hear it” Jane looks at her studying her face and looks like she doesn’t believe her

“What?…. why look at me like that”
“It’s nothing” Jane now takes her gaze away from her and spots Mel’s bag on the couch

“Have you seen Melanie around”
“Nope….why would I, you even know that woman and I don’t get along with each other, we can’t see eye to eye” Jane nods and understands that this girl is just so heartless and must be knowing something she’s not saying…..

“Where are you Mel” she just wonders without saying it out loud, she turns to go to the one place she had not checked and that’s the Ladies room, she had not gone far from there when she thought she had seen someone on the floor, her heart is racing as she prays its shouldn’t be Melanie….she increases her speed and reaches down to where she’s lying

“Melanie what happened” she tries to move her but Melanie is not making any move, she panics not knowing what to do, she wants to scream someone should come help her but she thought it was useless since they all claimed they never heard her scream…….she checks her coat and she’s glad she’d carried her phone along, she fidgets with the phone scrawling through Tobi’s name………….
