The Wrong Woman

Candice requested a day off, followed by the weekend ahead.

She spent three consecutive days holed up in her room. She didn't want to leave her room unless it was meal times.

Lethargically, Candice reached for her phone and glanced at it. It was her colleague, Vanessa.

"Hello, Vanessa," Candice answered on speakerphone. She lay motionless on the bed, her voice lazy and weak.

Vanessa nervously said, "Candice, let's watch a movie."

Candice wasn't interested, so she rejected easily. "No, I have to work tomorrow."

"It ends at 9:00 pm. Come on, I'll introduce you to a handsome guy," Vanessa insisted.
