Demanding Career


On Friday her reflection in the mirror was rested and youthful looking.  On Monday the creases of a demanding career appeared at the edges of her eyes and mouth.  The job was taking a toll, sucking the vitality out her weekend after weekend until she felt hollowed out, worn and empty.

When she answered the ad she was excited about working with one of the top magicians in the business, a chance to be on stag basking in the thunderous applause.

Now she understood why he needed a new assistant as he stole her life force to work his magic.
