Mira's POV
Waking up to the sound of Mr. Johnson's lawn mower has become a daily routine since his children got it for him a few months back; I was so excited at the time since the man had always been a lonely one since his wife passed on some years back...
Sighing I headed to my window, with a smile; "Good morning Mr. Johnson", He replied with his ever broad smile and his gleaming eyes which he had always managed to keep; "Oh how are you child , I see you're awake, I hope you don't mind my noise". This question had always given me a different answer than the one I would say out but who could resist an old man's eyes.. I responded as usual with a 'Of course not'. He simply smiled and continued...as I went to get ready to go out
Today was another day to go into the streets on my hunt for a job, I had never thought that my sister who was my only friend and hope will leave me alone in this harsh world but I've learnt over time that life has its ups and downs. I wiped the tears already forming in my eyes and proceeded to the last hope I had in getting a job even though I wasn't so sure in getting this one.... Why??…Cause it's that man's company....
Festus' POV
"I am not interested in whatever scheme you are proposing right now, If you do not plan to follow the company's suggestion , you can as well leave." I spat out in anger to the sluggish and scheming man in front of me , I know he's one of our biggest shareholders but he should already know who and what I stand for.
My secretary runs after me after the annoying meeting; "Sir?".. "WHAT?"; I say as i turn to her ;She trembles;"Y..ou.. ha...ve an interview''. I turn back and start walking while she runs after me "Cancel it". Surprised, she says "You told me to fix it to today or never sir". "Okay then , stop trembling and lead the way".
We arrive at the office lobby and I see a number of ladies all lined up to be my assistant; "This is going to be a long day". I walk into my office, and take a seat waiting for the first candidate.....
After a while I get tired, because they are all the same, Low charisma ..,here for my body...,or just here to beg for money. I summoned Clara after a while to send everyone back and get new sets of people later...
Mira's POV
"This is bad"; I keep muttering as I run into the lobby hoping to still be able to meet the interview as I missed my bus while trying to get back to my room to get the credentials I forgot, like Mira, 'how could you forget the one thing you need'... After locating the right area, I pass a number of ladies crying and cursing; "He didn't even listen to me, he.. just..t..old me to get out". I pray in my mind, just hoping they were talking about her long lost first love and not who i plan to meet....
I arrive at the office to see a young lady in her thirties sending ladies who I presume to be candidates back home.; "Please go back now, sorry, but Mr. Robinson can't take any more candidates..". Dejected, I see the ladies turn ,dragging their legs ,heads down back home.
"NO". I thought aloud.. I will not accept this, This is my last hope. I run past the lady into the office and burst open the door only to bump into a hard substance.... No this is not an hard substance... I look up to meet two cold blue eyes staring at me . "SHIT", I muttered aloud...
this is my very first story, i hope to improve and i hope to recieve lots of love from you all. This is the first chapter..
