Mending Broken Pieces

Chapter 3

Neveah stormed out of the fifth  interview the next day. She was very lucky to get those interviews on such short notice but ended up falling short on every last one of them. What was the point? The only difference between the last one and the other four she also didn't get, was when the Human Resources Manager of a local business took one look at Neveah and eyed her up and down.

When he asked her how bad she wanted this job and started advancing to her, she took one step back in fear. He grabbed her waist and looked her dead in the eyes and said, "If you want this job, you'll do as I say." His hands began to grip her ass and push her against him as her rubbed his hard on against her.

Neveah couldn't believe what was happening. Before she could stop herself, she pushed out if his embrace and kneed him right in his jewels, sending him forward, gripping then. She took the opportunity to lift her knee again and connect it with his nose as he fell back on to the floor screaming in pain.


Now, five minutes later as she took the elevator down to the lobby, she stormed through the crowd of people that was lucky enough to have jobs and provide for their families. She was pissed off that he didn't even look at how qualified she was for the job. Although Neveah’s last job was a waitress, she was quite overqualified for that job. She had experience as an assistant to one of the most lucrative companies when Rory was just a baby but when he began to grow up he need her attention more, forcing her to quit. It was rough being a single mother but women do it all the time so Neveah had to put on her grown woman pants and do what she had to do.


As she walked out of the building she decided to spend the rest of her time in a nearby coffee shop. It was no Starbucks but because of her budget, Carlos Coffee, would have to do. It wasn’t as many people in the coffee shop and Neveah was glad that she would have peace and quiet here since she wasn’t up to going home just yet. When she got in line, she searched in her purse for her wallet and then saw only twenty dollars in it.



Her last.

Neveah stomach completely dropped. All she had was twenty dollars to her name. She got out of line and sat down at a nearby table. To say she was depressed was an understatement. How could she provide for Rory with just that amount of money in her purse.

She got up and got a free newspaper from the newspaper dispenser and walked back to her seat to look for any wanted job ads in the paper.

As she was looking through the paper she can hear the jingle of the bell above the entrance to announce someone's arrival or departure. Neveah being the curious being that she was looked up.

Neveah's eyes connects with the finest specimen she has ever seen. He had chocolate skin with chocolate Hershey drop eyes to match, he had to at least be 6"2'.  A neatly shaven head , which on some would make them look old but on him it added sex appeal. He had the most luscious full lips, they could put LL to shame and they were surrounded by cleanly trimmed facial hair, but damn those lips.

Just imaging what those lips could do made her fidget in her seat. She brought the paper up to block her obvious staring because it was rude.

Neveah went back to the wanted ads in the paper after she seen him walk to the counter to order.

As she was actually paying attention this time she found a possible job opportunity in the section. So feeling as tired as she was and like she had made her days effort she got up to leave.

Half way out the door she realized she had left her wallet on the table because she forgot to put it back in her purse.

After going back and grabbing her wallet ready to get out of there she put a little more speed in her walk while trying to shove her wallet in her purse. Not looking where she was going she collided with someone sending her to land on her ass.
