It was a typical Monday morning for Lana, as usual, she's getting ready for work, she got to her office quite late that morning, she slept in a little. Two hours later Diane came into her office looking down in the dumps, "Girl are you okay?" Lana said with a curious look, "My house is going to be demolished in a few days, I got the mail from my landlord this morning, apparently it has been there for weeks but I didn't know, he sold the house two months ago, so I'm a nearly homeless person" Diane replied, "Awww sweetheart you don't have to worry, you can come live with me, after all I won't have to live there anymore in a matter of weeks and even at that, you know I love having you around, cheer up babe" Lana said, "Oh thank you so much, I'll move in tomorrow, we're gonna be roomies" Diane said excitedly, "I know right it's gonna be fun".

Meanwhile......
In Steve's office, Natalia came in looking haggard and unkempt and reeks of cigarette smoke, she stepped into the conference room and all eyes were on her, Steve called her aside "Natalia have you been smoking?" Steve asked, "No sir it's just that I... uhmmm..... I have a roommate and she is a smoker" Natalia lied, "Oh.... I never knew you had a roommate and second hand smoke isn't good for your health, you should probably change your roommate or just live alone, I can give you a raise, you don't look so good, are you okay? You can take the day off or even three days, I can handle things here on my own" he suggested, "No sir! I'm fine, I just didn't get enough sleep, I'm okay sir" she replied, "No Natalia, you're not seeing what I'm seeing, you look like a cavewoman, I'm sorry if that's offensive but I'm worried about you, go home and get rest and resume tomorrow, okay??" he insisted and slightly placed his index finger on her chin, Natalia felt flattered, "Yes sir....I'll see you tomorrow then" she bashfully looked away and left for her house.

Meanwhile, Bryce has been waiting for her feedback, several hours later he received a text from her "My place, in 15 minutes, code red is a go". He set off to her house and when he got there she was dressed in all black like she's going for a heist, "Hold on we can't attack now, it's still broad daylight, it's too risky and I'll prefer to do this on my own, I don't need you to follow me" he said, "shut your face hole, I'm coming with you to make sure there are no foul ups, my entire sanity depends on this gig" she replied while stacking her boots. Bryce insisted that they wait till evening but Natalia didn't agree, so he convinced her that they wait somewhere around her office  till they see her alone or they intercept her car on her way home, Natalia didn't mind the idea, so she agreed on the shoot out plan.

Few hours later they got to Lana's office, though they were not inside, they were in a van adjacent the entrance to the office, Natalia recognized Lana's car, so they parked their van few meters from it and there Lana was walking towards her car, Natalia alerted Bryce "There she is!!! That's the bitch!!" she said in a hushed tone, Bryce froze, he was just staring, he couldn't do anything, he was dumbfounded till Lana drove away, "You idiot! You let her escape what were you thinking?!!!!" Natalia said while hitting him, "I know her....... that's Freddie's girlfriend!" Bryce replied with his eyes wide open, "What??" Natalia replied looking confused.
