I was out on assignment interviewing people in Yishun and later Clementi, and I finally reached my office at around 5pm. Just when I entered office, my fellow intern friend told me that he had very bad news for me.
"Hey, I heard that the editor has something for you. It's bad."
I was like wondering what the hell it was. I went back to my seat, and just then, my supervisor came over and said "Weili you know what the angle of the story is this Sunday right?"
I was like "No?"
She was like "Oh you mean you didn't know you're working this Sunday? Oops. Sorry to spoil it for you."
I think I heard my heart breaking. I had planned for a relaxing afternoon on Sunday spent sleeping in till 11am.
Just then my editor came over. "Hey I just wanted to see you" he said.
"Yeah, I know I'm the special one this Sunday right."
"Hey, I didn't even get to tell you myself. How come you know that already."
"Probably because I'm awesome."
"Well, same thing. Don't come back without a story."
