You walk towards your home holding your stuff after being fired by your boss sighing. You had a one hell of a day waking up late, knocking into a stranger, getting your hand burnt, clothes ruined and at last fired by your boss.

Once you reached your apartment you tossed the heavy box somewhere and fell on your bed. You thought about the day that just passed. You thought if only that stranger didn't knock you everything would've been fine.

Lost in your own thoughts you got up when you heard the doorbell ring. Opening the door you saw your landlord standing there and you got tensed as you realised that you didn't give the rent of your apartment since 2 months and you knew from inside that he came to ask for it.

"Good Evening miss y/n, I paid a visit to ask for rent of the last two months." He said while looking down on his notepad with a pen in his hand scribbling something over the notepad with it.

"Ahjussi" you said while letting out a fake tear. "Oh dear what happened to you?" He said when hearing you sob with concerned expression. "Ahjussi, I lost my job and I don't have money to pay for food too. Please let me stay here for a while until I get a job. I promise to give you the rent next time." You said as you wipped your crocodile tears.

The landlord being a soft man held your hands to comfort you with concerned eyes and said, "Dear stay here for as long as you want and when you get a job do tell me and if you need any other help don't hesitate to tell me."

You let out a sigh of relief as you knew that your plan succeeded smoothly. "Thank you ahjussi, I'll keep you updated." You said as you faked a cry. After seeing him off you put your hands behind your head and though that the landlord was such a soft person and you should give him the rent next time but for that you ought to have a job.

You sighed as you started to place the things which your brought back from your office in the apartment. While placing your stuff you came acroos the card of the stranger you met in the morning.

As you held the card the moments with him came back to you. You blushed a bit remembering them as you placed the card on your dresser and went for a shower.

After the shower you took the newspaper placed on your dresser and opened up the page with job listing in it. You decided to take up some part-time circling up a few in the newspaper.

As you placed the newspaper back you saw the card again with the phone number on it. Picking it up empty mindedly something came to your mind and you eyes became big.

You picked up your phone and dialled the number and an unfamiliar voice answers "Hello"

"Hello" you said and asked "is it Mr. Van Gogh?"

"Sorry miss there is nobody named as Van Gogh over here." a man answered as he cut the call.

"Aaahhhh!! That brat he gave me the wrong number!!" You shouted and fell on your bed. "Now I myself have to work out something." You said as you stared at the ceiling in disappointment.

Just as you were about to loose hope your phone rang and and you answered with a straight face "Yes, who is it?"

"Van Gogh this side, I wondered why you called?" He said

Hearing thise word you stared at your phone screen to verify the phone number in disbelief but it was correct. You eyes widened as you sat up and said "Yes yes, I'm the girl in which you bumped into in the morning and gave your phone number to if you remember."

"Yes I do remember, have you come up with something?"

"umm... Yes, I want your help to get a job." You spoke with hesitation as you both only knew other since a few hours and we're basically strangers.

"oh umm... okay, but I need some information about you first."

"Wh-What information do you need?" You said as you hesitated as giving your private information to a stranger wasn't like you.

"I just need to know what field you work in and what post would you like to be on and the salary you want, just that and your resume of course."

"Oh right yes! I work in the field of cosmetology and fashion designing. To be honest I would take up any post right now and I would like my salary to be 3000 dollars per month, as for the resume I'll mail it to you, text me your mail ID soon." You confidently said all the details seeing some hope in finding a job for yourself.

"Okay, anything more you want?" he said

"Not as of now, I'll inform you when I want just like today and thank you so much for help me... If it weren't you who would be helping me I don't know what would I be doing right now, thank you again." You said being on the verge of crying out but this time something was different, there were real tears.

"It's not really a big thing for me." He chuckled as he said that.

"But really thanks a lot. When I'll be on a stable financial condition I'll treat you to a meal."  You smiled hard in contentment.

"Woah thanks, do tell me if you have any other problems" he spoke with convern in his eyes.

"Yes, I will surely. And by the way that was my manager who picked up the call earlier. I'm sorry for that." he said nervously.

"Oh that, it's okay" you scoffed and said bye cutting the call.
