Dominick waved her off, “Alright, you go ahead.”
Ford nudged him, “You’re really gonna let her go alone? What if she gets lost?”
Dominick rolled his eyes, “Come on, she’s just going to the bathroom, and we’re two grown men. We can’t exactly follow her in there. The restroom’s right here; how could she possibly get lost?”
Ford reluctantly agreed with Dominick’s reasoning.
*Nina, hands on her hips, casually strolled towards the restroom. Dominick watched her for a moment before
settling down on a seesaw for a quick nap.
But Ford kept his eyes on the restroom, his concern growing with each passing minute.
One minute, two minutes… five minutes…
Ford anxiously nudged Dominick again, “Why isn’t she back yet?”
Dominick, still half–asleep, mumbled, “She just went in. Girls take longer in the bathroom, right? It’s normal for
her to take some time.”
Ford tried to calm his nerves but couldn’t help feeling uneasy.
Ten minutes later, Ford gave Dominick a good kick, “If Nina’s missing, we’re in serious trouble.”
Dominick, now wide awake and annoyed, begrudgingly followed Ford to the restroom entrance.
They called out for Nina, but got no response.
Ford, ever observant, noticed a narrow hallway inside the restroom leading deeper into Dawson International. He broke out in a cold sweat.
“Oh no. Nina’s gone.”
Dominick, shaken by Ford’s discovery, turned pale. They approached a woman who had just exited the restroom, “Ma’am, could you please check inside for a little girl? She’s yay tall and wearing a pink dress…”
They gestured to show Nina’s height.
“Sure, I’ll take a look,” the woman said, eager to help.
After a thorough search, she returned with bad news–Nina was nowhere to be found. Dominick and Ford were nearly beside themselves with panic.
“This is bad, really bad. The boss is gonna kill us.”
Ford turned to Dominick, “This is all your fault…”
They ran around like headless chickens, desperately searching for Nina.
Meanwhile, Nina, already familiar with the place, navigated Dawson International with ease. She reached the elevator and took it to the executive floor, where the CEO’s office was.
As luck would have it, the president’s secretary was in the elevator too. She kept glancing at Nina before finally speaking up, “Hey there, who are you here to see?”
Nina confidently replied, “I’m here to see Cameron.”
The secretary’s eyes widened in surprise.
This little girl was casually dropping the CEO’s first name. She was about to give her a stern talking–to when she noticed the luxury brand label on Nina’s dress–this kid was someone important.
Judging the situation, the secretary switched gears, smiling warmly, “I’m the CEO’s secretary. Let me announce your arrival.”

But Nina waved her off, “No need, I’ll find him myself.”
When the elevator doors opened, Nina turned left without hesitation.
The secretary stood there, stunned; it seemed like Nina knew exactly where she was going.
Nina marched straight to Cameron’s office and knocked on the door.
Inside, Cameron was puzzled by the gentle knock. Just as he was about to ask who it was, the secretary peeked in with a bemused look, “Sir, there’s a little girl here insisting on seeing you.”
“A little girl?” Cameron echoed, startled.
Before he could say more, a charming little figure slipped under the secretary’s arm and into the room.
