CLOSED STARTER @forunholy || kareem & malee .
two weeks, the store had been closed. two long weeks without worrying about long hours and getting out of bed early for work. he loved his job, but he knew he was long overdue for a break, and so were his employees. he had decided to come in a few days before opening to ensure everything was in order, but something felt off. had one of his employees been here while he hadn't?
kareem walked further into the small store before hearing noises from his office. his anxiety was rising with every step he took, but he kept moving forward. was someone trying to rob him right now? he didn’t keep much cash at the shop. they wouldn’t make out with anything. putting his hand on the doorknob, he opens his mouth to yell at the intruder but instead lets out what he hopes sounds like a laugh. his heart was still pounding in chest.
“malee? what are you doing in my office? more importantly, how did you get in here?”
