FINALLY GOT ONE

"Just three more days, I have three more days to find a job, I never knew getting a job was this hard, like for the past four days it has just been heartbreak upon heartbreak". I said to myself as I sat at a mirror and starred at myself, I should have been more careful with my work at that wicked mans company, if that I had followed the instruction that was given to me, my job would have still been mine, I was blame and there was no one to give me lectures about not given up, so I just did it myself. I had to get a job, I touched my chest and stood up right in front of the mirror and said;

"I Park Sung Min, pledges to get a job before y seven days run out", I said with drill

Day Five – it was wasted on just walking around about in town trying to get a job, I checked everywhere but couldn't find a job so I went back home when I got home, I went back to my mirror.

Day Six – meet one of my father's friend, told him all about my condition but he refused to help because he kept o blabbing that my father left him all alone in this world, weird right? After that I came across this place they called "Best", I didn't know what was going on in there but I still checked anyways, it was a saloon, a big building, the building was rather too big for a saloon, with I having no knowledge about cutting or stylising hair or even manicure or pedicure just turned my back and left the building. I spent the rest of the day eating ice-cream with the hope of getting a last day miracle and not resting until I find a job.

Day Seven – stood up from bed with a low morale to getting a job, left home with the same low morale, searched the entire city for a job but couldn't get one, I spent my night in my bath hob.

That's it, seven days, seeking a job but couldn't find one, I gave up, I continued to ask myself over and over again if failure was my thing, I remembered when I was young and my father will always tell me that I have a purpose, but I couldn't seem to get the purpose. One morning I overheard my mother and my father arguing about my brother that died before I was even born and my mother mis takingly said that I was a mistake, I wept throughout the day, with my father knowing that I heard what my mother said, came to me later and told me that she said that out of annoyance and he said to me;

"Sung Min you have a purpose", I believed, but today I think my father was wrong, I don't think I have a purpose or maybe I have one but can't just see it. My life was kind of boring at that moment so I decided to make friends, and wanted to start with the gym, I went to the gym not far from my house, not to work out or to gain a little muscle but to make friends. I packed my things and headed for the gym, when I got there to my surprise it was empty, the only person that was present was the manager, he was feasting on a burger that seemed too big for him. I wanted to turn back and leave but he stopped me, I thought he was going to advice me but no, all he said was;

"the gym is not opened today, if you want to know when it is opened, check our page on Facebook where you can meet gymnast like you, thank you"

He said all that like a robot without stopping for a breath and when he was done he took a big bite from his burger and started munching it rather weird.

I got home and did as he said, I entered the page and applied for every Saturday workout, after I did that, I just kept scrolling on Facebook, then I came across a job, but it was not my type even though I was good at it, a cook, not at a restaurant but at a person's house and the pay was high, I just had to apply, after I did that, I was told to visit their resident in two days time. I was quite happy but not too happy because the job was not mine yet. Two days that felt like a year and half, well, it was finally over. I got to the mansion that was far away from my house, it was painted with colour white and gold but the gate where black and gold, they compound was filled with cars, I could approximately count twenty, "the owner must be very rich", I said to myself. The mansion, the cars, and everything I saw made me remember our own mansion, while I was still young, mom and dad will play hide and seek with me all day and wouldn't catch me, dad always getting a new car every three months, moms garden and how she loved the flower that was just at the beginning of the garden, I remembered the toy car dad bought for me and how I will always park it beside his favourite car, I remembered the gates, the colour, the swimming pool, everything, dad and moms room, my room and the remaining rooms, everything I aw kept on reminding me about our mansion. I went inside and saw an old man waiting for me, the first thing he looked at was the necklace I was wearing, the necklace the demon woman gave me.

"my daughter come in, I guess you re here for the job of a cook, right?" he said

"yes sir, that's what I came for", I replied

"well have a sit, he will be here shortly", he said I took a sit and crossed my fingers which the man noticed

"my dear you do not have to be so tensed, consider the job yours, all you have to do is be my friend, okay, lets start with your name, what is your name my dear?"

"Park Sung Min", I replied

"this man has been the nicest person I have met this week and he is even willing to be my friend, how nice, just hope his master is as nice as him", I said in my head

"you can call me Babu, hang on a sec let me call him", he said

While the old man was gone, I just sat on the chair and starred at the house as far as my eyes could see. I took deep breath, with the situation getting intensifying because the old man hasn't come outside with his boss for a while now, maybe they don't need a cook anymore, I stood up and started walking around

"Sung Min meet my grand son Hee Bin", he said from a distance

Having heard the voice from a distance, I already went back to my sit

"grandson! Did I just hear grandson, so Babu is not a worker, so he went to wake him up to ask if he likes me, as they came to where I was they was a conversation between them, he clearly did not want to wake up by this time"

"Babu I am fine with your decision, just let me go back to bed" Hee Bin said

"just take a look at her", Babu responded

They came closer and closer and the voice of the grandson seemed familiar, I felt like I had heard the voice somewhere, but I couldn't just figure out where. Closer and closer they came and more familiar the voice became.
