"Josie you're so funny." Clemy tells Josie and laughs again.
"The funny part of it was I eventually got grounded." Josie tells Clemy and the both of them laugh.
I am not part of their talk because I was there when it was all happening and she's told me over and over again and I don't get the reason why it's funny,it's so boring.
"Oh Clemy let me tell you the story of when I first learnt how to drive but I didn't really know how to drive and I hit a man." Josie starts then Clemy sits like he's interested then Josie continues
"That time my mom and Dad had died so I was looking for money to take care of my little sister Babe,I then decided to learn how to drive,I began to drive cars and paid a man money to teach me,the last money I had,I learnt how to drive for that month but was not a good driver,the next month he asked me for money which I didn't have so I quit.
I decided to be a driver and was a driver for a woman but she did not believe that I could drive she thought boys were the only ones that could drive.
I began to drive for her and she paid me money every month.
One day I was driving for her and went to one local area like the one we're living in,it was so choked and I had to be quick I didn't know when an old man selling hot dogs came to my front and before I could stop the car I had hit him.
The woman ran out of the car then I followed already sure that I was fired.
I thought the man was dead as I ran to him he was unconscious, a lot of people gathered which made me more afraid I sprinkled water on his face and he coughed five times and opened his eyes. I was so happy that I wasn't going to jail.
The woman fired me that was when I said I would never drive again,I was so happy I was not going to jail." Josie smiles.
"So what job are you doing now." Clemy asks Josie.
"I'm not working." She replies him looking embarrassed.
"What of you?." He asks me facing me.
"I'm also not working." I tell him also embarrassed.
"Oh,so how do you guys feed each other?." He asks the both of us this time.
"Um,well,um,let's forget about this matter." I smile nervously cause I don't want to tell him he's the one giving us food to eat.
"Let's be going home." Josie tells me as she stands up from the chair and I follow too.
"Bye." I tell him still nervous then we both walk out of his house quickly.
*******
"You know I think Clemy was right." I tell Josie who is lying on the bed typing her phone.
"Are you listening?" I ask Josie as she faces me smiling and I think she's smiling about what she saw in her phone.
"No." She replies me and continues typing on her phone. I sigh.
"I said I think Clemy is right." I tell her again.
"Right about what?." She asks me then I sigh.
"About what he said,he asked if we have a job and none of us have a job."
"Oh,yeah,you're right." She laughs and I think she's still not listening to me causing me to drag her phone. She faces me looking angry.
"Hey why'd you do that?." She asks me.
"I am telling you we need to look for a job." I tell her as she sighs.
"OK,let's look for a job." She tells me opening her eyes widely.
"Finally." I sigh as I say that word.
"But tomorrow." She tells me and collects her phone from my hand.
"OK." I agree with her but is not agreeing inside of me but there's nothing I can do about it.
*******
"Morning sleepy beauty." I wake Josie up then she groans.
"Why are you waking me up?." She asks me.
"Because I have good news for you." I tell her jumping on the bed.
"What's the good news?." She asks jumping on the bed with me.
"I have gotten a job." I tell her really happy and I'm sure she's also happy with me too because of the way she smiles.
"Really?." She asks me and she sounds really happy.
"Yes and my interview is next week." I tell her getting down from the bed as she follows.
"Really?." Josie asks me.
"Yes." I reply her.
"Oh my I can't wait for that day to come." Josie tells me jumping up.
"Yes you can." I remind her but she acts like she doesn't care.
*******
"Bye I'm going to work for my interview." I tell Josie who acts like she doesn't care.
"Hey so now you don't care about my new job,last week you were the one telling me that you're so happy and that you can't wait and now it's here and you're not even happy at all." I tell her a little jealous folding my hands together resting them on my chest.
"OK I wish you good luck." Josie tells me still wrapped with a towel.
"Are you following me to work?." I ask her.
"No,I need to go to Anna's place and we'll have fun." She smiles "I need go get dressed,bye." She tells me going away.
"Help me tell Clement that I've gone for the interview and he should wish me good luck." I tell her.
"OK." She tells me.
******
"Babe Rale please come to the interview room." A woman's voice is heard from a speaker.
I stand up and enter a blue glass door. I see a woman.
"Please have your seat." The woman tells me then I sit down on a black table.
"I am so sorry that our boss is not around right now so since I'm his best friend, he asked me to help him interview people so don't think I'm the boss." The woman tells me then I smile.
"OK ma'am I understand what you're saying." I tell the woman.
"Good,now let's start this interview, can I have the document?." The woman asks me as I remove the document from my bag and give it to her.
"OK so......"
"Now with all I've seen I think you'll be his secretary." The woman tells me after seeing everything that I have.
"And you'll be paid $10,000 every month." The woman tells me which makes me more happy and I feel like happiness has come to meet me.
"Thank you so much ma'am." I thank the woman almost crying tears of joy."
**** "Cab!." I cry out as a cab stops at my front then I look at the man inside the car its a black American.I enter the car with so much excitement. Oh my,I have gotten a job,this is the first job I'm ever getting in my life well not my first job but my first company job but I've done a lot of jobs like cooking, house maid, waitress, selling and so many like that but the one that I worked as a waitress was not in a big restaurant, it was just in a local little shop,now I've gotten a company job and I'll be paid $10,000."Madam,please where am I going to?." The cab driver asks me snapping me from my thoughts."I've been waiting here for over three minutes and you haven't told me where we're going to." The cab driver reminds then I check the time and he's wrong we've been here for over five minutes."I'm so sorry,I was lost in thought." I quickly confess to him."OK,just be driving straight then I'll tell you when we should go left or right."
* "She was behaving so weird, I'm telling the truth." I tell Clemy who doesn't believe me."Are you sure? Or was she just playing with you?." Clemy asks me looking serious."No, she was not just playing with me,she looked serious." I tell him."OK,so what do you think could have caused Josephine to behave that way?." Clemy asks me but I don't have an answer."Clemy,I just want to forget about that matter and talk about another matter." I tell him almost sad."OK." He tells me smiling."Oh, Clemy, I've good news." I remember what I told Josie."What's the good news?." He asks me as I smile."Well, I've gotten a new job." I tell him jumping up."Really?." He asks me looking really happy then I sit down."And it's a company job.""Really?.""Yes." I smile well I know it won't be so shocking for him that it's a company job because he's worked as a CEO of a company but he still seems happy for me more than Jos
"Mr Kelvin." Mia whispers to my ear."Who is this girl?." Kelvin asks Mai who looks down."Sir she's your new secretary." Mai replies Kelvin smiling."My new secretary?." He asks her then sighs. "Welcome to this company,you'll love it." He assures me causing an unexpected smile on my lips."Thanks." I thank him really happy that he just assured me I'm going to enjoy his company.I go back to my office and sit on the black chair.What can I do? I don't know what to do, no one told me what to do, well I'll just go meet Kelvin for my first file to fill.I stand up from my chair and go to his office without knocking."Kelvin." I call him then he faces me without smiling."Who are you?." He asks me looking surprised to see me."I'm your new secretary sir." I remember that I called him Kelvin instead of Mr Kelvin.
******* "Thanks for the ride sir." I walk out of Mr Kelvin's beautiful pink car and enter my house as he drives away.I see Josie as soon as I enter my house."Who's the man?." Josie asks me quickly before I could say anything."Who?." I ask her also confused."The man that just drove the car that you came out from, I didn't see his face but I know he's a man.""Oh, he's my boss....""You better not." She warns me even though I don't know why she's warning me when I didn't do anything."What should I not do?." I ask her really shocked at why she'd just tell me not to do something."Don't cheat on Clemy." She replies me looking really serious."Cheat Clemy, I don't love Clemy and I don't love my boss, he's just a friend.""Friend your friend, you just met him today and you already call him your friend." She looks at me ashamed."I hope it's not what I think it is." She looks at me
"Why'd you not tell me Kelvin was your boss?." She asks me like she's getting angry."Well,you never let me tell you anything you just jump into conclusion." I defend myself to tell her it's her fault."Whatever,I need to see him right now." She begins to run then stops at the door of the room."You must not fall in love with him." She warns me then begins to run as I chase her."Stop!." I shout then grab her hands."Why are you stopping me from seeing the love of my live?." She asks me trying to release herself from my hand."Josie I told you, Kelvin said he's going to meet you tomorrow, well I said he should meet you tomorrow,
*****"Kelvin I'm so sorry at the way Josie behaved like five hours ago, she's just behaving Luke a child." I apologize to him for Josie's sake."Oh, it's OK, lots of people are in love with me." He admits."But are you in love with any of them?." I ask him as he looks at me like he's surprised and nervous."Um-well-I-um-well-do-I-mean don't have a girlfriend friend." He stammers then I look at him a little surprised at his behavior."Wow,you're behaving so weird." I tell him quickly and softly."Weird no ones behaving weird." He smiles nervously. "Wow,is it hot in here?." He asks me using one if his files to blow it on himself to bring the air to him.
"Babe." Josie walks close to me with the cup of coffee right in her hands.She drops the cup of coffee on the bed and kneels close to me."Josie." I hold Josie's hands to apologize to her."Why are you crying?." Josie surprisingly asks me. I look at her shocked.Maybe she didn't know what I said before she came, maybe she just came when I turned to look at the door.I remove my hands from hers and use it to clean the tears rushing out of my eyes like an ocean. I look at Josie who is expecting an answer."Well, Josie I'm crying because-because i-i fe-felt so bad for my friend dad I mean mom,I mean dad died." I stammer nervously."Really,who's the friend?." She asks me looking concerned making me feel so guilty for lying to her."A friend of my in work." I lie to her again this time scratching my hair with my left hand."Wha
I look at Kelvin who smiles probably expecting an answer as I turn to look at Josie who is crying so badly, water running freely from her eyes.I look at Clemy who smiles a little folding his hands.I look at the crowd who are also probably waiting for an answer.Oh my, what do I do? If I choose my sister, I might never be able to get married to the love of my life, and if I choose Kelvin, Josie will obviously disown me, oh I'm in trouble, why did I even come to this party? I regret coming to this party.I look at Josie whose eyes are red, oceans on her face and she keeps shaking her head.Josie purses her lips together then puts her right hand on it probably try not to make her crying loud si
