weekend
that I gave birth to Alex. "I am not stressing out. I am just spacing out."I lied and to make sure she did not call me out, I changed the subject."Do you think Alex is adapting okay?"I asked what had been bothering me for a while.
"
I nodded then forgetting she could not see me, I replied."Yes, you are speaking to Zoey."
"That's great, I'm calling from R tech corp company...." that made my heart beat so fast as had work too.
The weekend passed very fast, and it was now Monday morning. I woke up early, earlier than most days. I had double work, I had to get Alex ready for school and I had to get ready for mymean I will get to know the mastermind behind R Tech Corp? What an honour, that guy or a lady has never been glimpsed anywhere. Not in the news, or the newspapers. I had looked everywhere for his picture or name but I got nothing.
"Yeah, and he has a fiance. Isn't that sad? I was hoping to get this job and seduce him and maybe become the madam of the need?"I asked my eyebrows still raised. I could sense where these girls were headed and I was not letting them reach there.
I couldn't stand mean girl energy, people used to be mean to me every time in the past when I didn't know how to defend myself. Even though my self-esteem was not the best till now, at least I had built something over the years and that is self-defence, physically and mentally.
"Are you disgusted by us? Why did you make that face? You are just a pretty face, what gives you the right to act better than us." I was flattered but I didn't show it. They thought I was pretty?
"You should mind your own business, what I do or don't do should not concern you," I said but one of them stood up anger written all over her face.
She stood in front of me and then she swung her right arm ready to hit me but I caught her hand midair while I too stood.
"What do you want from me?"I asked calmly releasing her hand but still on guard in case she wanted to hit me again.
She was surprised but only for a second. I'm sure she expected me to match her energy. There was no way I was going to waste my energy on such a person. She was not worth it.
"Who do you think you are?" she asked furiously.
I wanted to laugh. I could see it in her eyes, she was scared and she was just acting furious to make friends or whoever the other two girls were to her to see she had the guts. Such a proud fool, she should have just sat down instead of embarrassing herself.
"What's going on there?"A cold deep voice said and I blinked directing my eyes to where that voice came from.
