✏Allison’s POV✏
.
“Allison?” Jonas called, confusion evident in his eyes.
I gave him an assuring look. “I’ll be fine, Jonas. I can do this” I said, trying to sound as assuring as possible.
“You can’t!” He rasped. “You don’t know Gavin, Allison. This guy’s doesn’t seem like the one to let anyone slip through him!” He continued “I mean, look at every damn thing he does, yet he gets away with all of it. You think he’ll spare you if he catches you?”
I could tell he was angry and somehow, it hurts me.
“You won’t be caught, Allison. Your disguise won’t give you away, trust me” Anthony said, looking directly at me. I rolled my eyes off him.
“Disguise? Do you think he’s stupid. You don’t know him-
“That’s the case, Jonas. none of us knows this guy, we only know about some of the stuff he’s done. I can do this Jonas, I’ll try not to be caught and I promise if I sense danger, I’ll stop it right away” I said, assuringly. “I know you care a lot about me and I can’t do this without your approval, please” I said and Jonas gave me a call look before sighing softly. He placed a palm on his forehead and car-ssed it gently.
“So what about this Roseanne, won’t she say something about it?” He asked Anthony.
“No, Joe here gave her something that’ll make her have slight amnesia and oversleep. She won’t remember a thing” Anthony said. “And Allison, you don’t have to be scared, once you see anything suspicious, just walk away. But you’ll be fine, I promise”
“See?” I said to Jonas and he gave a short sigh before nodding reluctantly.
“Okay, so what do I need?”
“Everything you’re to use is in that bag, you won’t be detected at the scanning stand and when you’re in Gavin’s office, no one else will be in there, so you do your thing” he said. “Can you drive a car?”
“I guess so. I drive my dad’s truck sometimes” I said.
“They’re different vehicles, Allison. How about I drive her there?” Jonas suggested.
“No, Roseanne doesn’t go to work with anyone, it’ll bring suspicions if you drive her and a truck’s convincing enough” Anthony interjected.
“Be here before seven, Roseanne resumes work by seven. Ten feet away from here, you’ll find a car, blue in color; it’ll be parked. Every direction has been inputted in the car, you just need to get in and drive” he instructed and I nodded, glancing through the bag.
“If that’s all, can we go now?” Jonas asked.
“So soon. I thought I’d be having company for dinner” Anthony said. “You know, getting to know you actually made me realize how lonely living here is. Please, stay a little more guys” Anthony pleaded, pulling on a sad face. I gave Jonas and I could see the sheer disapproval in his look.
“Sure, we will” I said and Jonas gave me a knowing look before sighing in surrender.
“Not me, I have a job to get back to” Joe said, “see you later, Anto” he said, adjusted his clothes and walked out.
“Well, Yay!” Anthony squealed like a child and unpacked his lunch box, “at least I have you both. Come on and join me, there’s enough for everyone” he invited and I did but Jonas didn’t. I was just glad he was here with me.

Then next morning, I was sure to wake up pretty early, did the normal morning routine and carefully put on my disguise. The cleaner wear did fit me but not perfectly, it was a bit loose at a few part. I took the rest and walked out, Jonas was already setting the table for breakfast.
“Hey,” he smiled. “Knew you’d be up early so I made breakfast before then, have some before you leave” he said and I nodded.
“Thank you” I said and accepted the seat, covering up with the table cloth. I brought the saucer closer and took a large sip from the coffee, it was perfect. In no time, I grabbed a piece of the syrupy pancakes and dug into it.
While I ate, Jonas left and returned with a different outfit and his car key.
After breakfast, I quickly took away the used dishes and we head out, going into his car; a different car.
As the drive extended, I noticed him stealing glances at me at intervals but I let it slide and took out a picture from the bag, it was a full picture of Roseanne in her work outfit. I realised, she has her hair in a French plait. I set the picture aside and began dressing my hair to look like hers but after it, I noticed that the end of the French plait was loose whereas, her’s wasn’t. I tried it again but I couldn’t seem to tighten the end as perfectly as she did. I made a last attempt and it came out better.
A few more hours later, we got to the house and Jonas stopped the car and just few metres ahead, I sight the car Anthony had talked about.
“Hold on,” Jonas said when I was about to make it out of the car, I paused back on the seat and he took my hair and began working on it, he did the end before leaving it and when I checked it out in the mirror, it was just as Roseanne’s.
“Wow. This is good, thank you” I said, surprised.
“Good luck, Allison and don’t forget your promise. You’ll come right back if it gets shitty” he said.
“I won’t,” I said, gesturing.
“I’ll be waiting for you in Anthony’s,” he said and I nodded.
“Thank you,” I said, sitting back as if waiting for something.
“Um..I should go,” I said, disappointed.
What was I expecting anyways, that he’d k-ss me?!
“Yeah, be safe” he said and I came down from the car. I moved forward to the other car and got into it.
I opened the door and it gave way, I hopped onto the drivers but before starting the car, I thought back on what I did in Jonas car.
“I must’ve looked stupid,” I sighed regrettably, twitching my face and giving my forehead a mental slap. I sighed and started the car, taking direction from the map.
I got to the company, it was a big building, even bigger than what Anthony had showed me in his computer. I quickly put on the face mask, light cleaning gloves and wore the ID card, before grabbing the customised handbag and walking out. I arrived at the entrance and went through a scan, I was accepted in and I stepped further into the big company. It was glassy, wide and beautiful and hustle and bustle from different sides sprung up.
I felt nervousness slipping in but I waved it in a gulp and found my way to the elevator, I took out the small pad that was in the bag and contained the directions, it dropped me at the assigned floor. I walked composedly to where I got the cleaning equipments, I hung my bag carefully and balanced the bucket that contained soapy water and a mop, well.
I found my way to Gavin’s office and a security guard at the door, gave me a deep look before taking my ID, he gave it a glance and ushered me in.
I took a brief look around the office and I sight the potrait almost immediately. I gave a slight glance and found the guy still behind me. I quickly, took the mop from the water and began cleaning. After a moment, I heard a phone beep, he picked it, talked gently and walked out.
My heart made a slight leap when the door bang slightly. I sighed in relief and was about moving to the portrait, I retreated, and walked to the door instead, I used the key and locked it, assured that it was locked; I walked to the portrait. I used a chair to support my height and reached the portrait, I pulled it down and found a fresh wall. I pushed it with my strength and it gave way to a small squared safe that required a password. I took the pad and typed in the password, the small door made an opening sound and I opened it. Almost immediately, I heard the doorknob twisting and immediately, a fierce knock followed.
“Who’s in there?” I heard a cold masculine voice.
“The cleaner” another voice came through.
“Quick! Get the spare key! Hurry!!” The other voice said, impatience very evident.
My breath hitched subconsciously.
