Sounds From Upstairs
Office
Daniel was
in the office late in the evening when he heard someone running up the common stairway up to the upper floor thinking the landlord has finally a tenant.
Daniel Chong
rented an old office space in one of the neighborhood in Kajang in Selangor. He
has only 3 staff and he usually spent the day with clients, meetings and
basically look for new business. When he gets back to the office he answers any
question from his staff, take calls and do his paper work.
One day
after coming from a meeting, he heard the footsteps as if someone was walking
up the stairways to the upper floor. He looked surprised at Rosli (one of his
employee) who just shrugged and smiled saying someone must have rented the
upper floor.
Daniel’s
office was on the first floor and the second floor (the upper unit) and the top
most unit were located above Daniel’s office. The ground floor which was a Tyre
shop and it had a separate opening. It
was a 3 storey (including the ground floor) shop lots and they the two units
were padlocked through a grilled on the ground floor.
Over the
following weeks they heard people talking, whispering and steps on the stairways leading to the 2nd floor. Once after work at night, Daniel who
was alone was busy locking the front door when he saw a girl and a boy dashing
and running on the stairway to their upper unit. However it was so fast that
he did not get to say the chance to say “hi” to them.
