search for a job

Ina walked along the road looking for a place she would place her CV, she's very hungry and tired, yet she really needs a job badly, how would she survive in this harsh world without a job, she thought as she sat down looking at a sign board where house helps were needed, one mind told her to immediately collect the number but another mind told her not to " hell no, I'm a fist class degree graduate, I'm not going lower my pride just to work as a house maid, hell no I'm not" she said as she gets up and starts walking, she walked for some few hours and broke down into tears in front of a super market she was so hungry, yet she couldn't buy any food, the only money she had was to buy food for her son Henry, she got Henry when she was only fifteen years old for her useless boyfriend who ran away after learning she was pregnant, now she's twenty five and Henry is 10 years old and life without a job wasn't helping matters at all. She got home and sat down on the sofa " welcome mom" Henry said as she smiled " here, manage this for dinner" she said handing him some sandwiches as he took them " won't you have a bite?" He asked as he nods her head in negative as he goes into his room to eat. Afternoon putting henry to bed she went into her room to sleep, she slept for some hours but the hunger was way too much, she got up rushing into the kitchen to find an empty refrigerator, the first thought that came into her mind was the house help job she saw as she carry a flash light to go outside. She stood outside looking from left to right as she decides to go back in it's too dark to go out, what if she gets rape, then another bundle of responsibility on her head again " hell no" she shouted as she ran back into the house locking the doors. The sound of the cock came with pleasure for Ina, she had a dream where she ate so many Fred chickens as she wanted " I'm I a witch now?, Hell no" she said shaking her head

" Mom, what's all the hell no about this morning?" Henry asked as he cleared his eyes " are you a fool, go brush your teeth" she said holding her stomach " but you haven't brushed your teeth?" He said as she furrowed her eyebrows " hell no, are you okay, it's only people who have eaten can brush" she said as he rolled his eyes " do you know who you're rolling your eyes for?" She asked as she pinched his ear " get out" Ina shouted as he ran into the bathroom. Ina got up from the bathroom as she picked up something good to wear, she went to Henry's room knocking on the door " son, how are you?" She asked going inside " I'm okey, mom" he said sitting up " son, I'll have to go out to look for work, I'll be back late, I have prepared some breakfast for you, so eat and take care of yourself" she said hugging him " okay mom, good luck" he said as Ina smiled going outside. She walked out for a while as she held her stomach, she hadn't eaten since last night,she was already feeling like she was already dead " hello Ina " she heard her friend Maggie said " hi, how are you " Ina asked as she rested against the wall " hey, I just came to check on Henry, I didn't know you haven't gone out far" Maggie said as Ina brought out a soft smile " I'm on my way out, please help me check on my son from time to time, I'll be going now" Ina said as she walked away. Ina moved slowly she could feel all her intestine flying out of her stomach, the hot sun even the breeze could kill her. Soon she moved not realizing how she walked into the road as a huge jeep stopped immediately " are you mad, do you want to die in my hands?" A man shouted from the car " I'm sorry " she said going off the road " if you want to die, drink a damn acid" he said speeding off as Ina furrowed her eyebrows " idiot" she said rolling her eyes as she sits down on the road " what should I do, should I get the job for a maid?, Hell no I'm better than that"

Ina walked towards a restaurant and put her nose on the window, she was so hungry yet she had no money with her, god knows if she wasn't a graduate who could defend her degree anytime she would have stolen something to eat but what the heck, she's won't, she thought as she turned back bumping into someone " are you insane?" Was the harsh question she heard from a man " old grumpy man" she said realizing it was the man who almost ran into her with his car as she rolled her eyes " are you stocking me, you want money right, anyways that's how cheap women like you are" he said dumping a huge bundle of cash on her as he walked away ' hey, old man got back here and take this, bundle of money " she said as she looked at the cash, this woman can feed her and her little boy for years, no, if she takes the money the man would think she's cheap " old man get back here" she shouted running after his car as she throws his money inside the car " listen , I'm not an old man, I'm just forty years old" he yelled as she giggled " my dad died at forty years of age, Gran pa" she said as he bit his lips " you're a idiot, I never ever want to see you again" he yelled going inside his car " hello, I never want to see you before we meet you're already dead, Gran pa" she said yelling as he drove away " grumpy old fool" she said turning back when she suddenly felt dizzy and fainted. " Mom" Ina heard as she opens her eyes to see Henry seat down next to her with Maggie " son, have you eaten" she asked as he nodded his head in positive " bestie, you haven't eaten for a few days, they won't start medications without you eating properly, son go get her something to eat " Maggie said as Henry went out to buy food " I just want a job that suits my caliber " Ina said sitting up " dear, in this place, you use any means possible to survive, I'm also a graduate, didn't we come out of school the same time but I'm a waitress, what can I do"
