"That's good Ms. It's always nice for everyone to feel intense happiness everyday. Thank you. I'll be going now."
'Why is she telling me if she's happy? These rich people are really funny. If she's feeling euphoria, she should go celebrate somewhere. Or wait, does she want to invite me to join her? I would have loved to but I have something important to do.'
Jesy had misunderstood the lady's name and thought the lady was saying how she was feeling.
Jesy blinked when she heard the lady laugh.
'Is that how happy she is? Wow. I didn't expect that. She's serious after all.'
"No, you're not so dumb are you? Am Euphoria Bolton. My name is Euphoria. You can call me that."
Euphoria cleared up the air of misunderstanding.
Jesy chuckled awkwardly, her cheeks brightened up in embarrassment.
'That's such a good name.'
"I deeply apologize, it's just that I haven't heard anyone answering your name before. But it's a wonderful name. If there's nothing else, I'll be going as I need to be somewhere now."
Jesy apologized and prepared to take her leave when Euphoria's words made her stop.
"You're also going to prepare for the banquet too, Jesy Anthony. You're heading to the company, allow me to give you a lift."
Euphoria smiled so beautifully but Jesy could tell there was something in that smile. But it was hard to pinpoint.
"Pardon? How did you know? And my name?"
Jesy narrowed her eyes at Euphoria, she stepped closer and scrutinized Euphoria with a skeptical look.
"Am also a newbie in High Life Entertainment, we're colleagues. I said to give you a lift in my car, to save your time. Hmm?"
Jesy eyed Euphoria and turned towards the car. She stared at Euphoria from top to bottom, she could see how finely dressed the rich lady was. Getting a lift from someone who is willing to help was not a bad idea, right? Jesy nodded her head reluctantly and Euphoria gleefully clapped and dragged Jesy into the car and it sped away.
Inside the luxury car was uncomfortable for Jesy, not that she was scared or anything like that, but she just wasn't comfortable sitting in the same space as this Euphoria lady. She silently prayed for them to arrive at the company faster and her prayer was answered. The car drove into the company and parked in the parking lot of the company and Jesy got down immediately. She sighed as she breathed in the fresh air.
"Welcome Jesy."
A voice from behind made Jesy turn and she was surprised to see Akira and Clara were waiting for her. For how long were they waiting? Jesy thought and immediately smiled, she waved at them and walked hastily to where they stood.
Euphoria got out of the car and her gaze followed where Jesy was walking to and she was puzzled to see two ladies standing. Who were they? Euphoria thought as she looked closely at the two ladies and she strutted to their direction.
"Good morning Jesy, is that your car?"
Clara greeted as her eyes lingered on the flashy red sports car, but she frowned when she saw another person coming out of the car like she owned it. Who was that? Clara thought as she gave Jesy a questioning look.
"Good morning. That's not my car, she gave me a lift."
Jesy clarified as she pointed towards Euphoria who was approaching them. She smiled at Clara and Clara smiled back. Jesy could tell that Clara looked really good on her two pieces jumpsuit, her hair was french braided and it looked really cool on Clara. Jesy's admiration for Clara didn't get to be completed when a voice interrupted.
"Jesy, are they your friends?"
It was Euphoria's voice, Jesy turned towards her with a frown drawn on her perfectly carved brows. Jesy watched Euphoria size both Clara and Akira up with her eyes and she wanted to scoff but held herself. What kind of question was that? Jesy thought but she answered Euphoria.
"She's Akira, my manager and this is Clara, my assistant."
Jesy stood beside Akira and waited for Euphoria's reply. Jesy honestly didn't like this rich Euphoria lady, her first impression on Euphoria was good, but not anymore.
"What? You already have a manager? Even an assistant? How did you beg for one? I haven't been given a manager."
Euphoria was dismayed, she stared at the three ladies before her in disbelieve. What was going on? Nothing sounded or looked right to Euphoria.
Although Jesy was confused at Euphoria's reaction, she just shrugged her shoulders and said.
"I didn't beg for one, the company gave them to me. Why?"
Jesy asked, both Clara and Jesy gave Euphoria a weird look, but Akira looked unbothered. Akira knew it was natural that Euphoria reacted like that because she knew Jesy was the only newbie who got a manager and assistant. Although Akira wondered why, but she never asked questions.
"We need to get going, that's the car that was arranged for us, it'll be taking us to shop for your dress. We should go."
Akira said and Jesy nodded with a smile.
Euphoria rounded her eyes at Akira's words. Jesy was given a car to go shopping? Only Jesy got such privilege to shop for her own dress? What about the others? Every other person were being given general treatment but Jesy was being given a special treatment?
"What?!!"
Euphoria suddenly screamed that made Clara and Jesy flinch in shock.
I guess Euphoria is shocked out of her wit.
Creation is hard, cheer me up!
