Never Again, Social Media Love

Social media Finder

The past week has been about brainstorming ideas to pitch for a top notch company who was coming in for a partnership. I wouldn't lie, my boss is one smart guy. The company is barely 6 years and he has done so much. We have the best material for all kinds of makeup production. And I was given another opportunity to do my best. I can't let this down.

I paced back and forth the four corner room, rehearsing the best lines for my pitch. After getting it right. I nodded. "This is it" I smiled at the thought of it.

I laid on the bed from my back. I rolled on each side, swingling my legs in excitement. I was still nervous but I knew deep inside I got this covered. I pushed myself forward to close my system and my files.

I sat up and stared into the white ceiling which was lined with a pink wire which light the house once it is turned on. With the excitement I thought about what Emma said. I pulled my phone from my back pocket to get this started. I thought about what to do first.

"Maybe I should post a picture of myself." I thought aloud. I scrolled to Instagram and found a picture of myself during my sisters wedding. I'd wore a green lace gown with a long slit on my right leg which went up to my thighs, my makeup was nicely done by Emma using my companies products. With only 1500 followers, I wonder who will like my picture anyway but I guess I have to try.

I glared into the picture I thought was right to post. After being convinced, I hit the post button on the screen. My heart raced for a second, social anxiety I presume. The last time I had ever posted was five years ago after graduation and since then I had no intention to.

I heaved a sigh of relief and went to bed immediately.

One thing about social media, the more you engage the more addicted you become and if you're not strong you'll slowly adapt to it's social way of life.

It's Sunday and the way and Emma go about it is by going to church and having lunch at our usual spot. I woke up to the sound of birds perching, and the clouds so bright. I felt alive and ready to be in the presence of the Lord, I have every reasons to thank Him for, but most especially for my upcoming presentation.

I searched for my phone to see a lot of notifications from my previous post. I smiled and hurriedly unlock my phone to read the likes and comments.

"100 likes, wow." I said. I sprang up to read the comments.

"You so beautiful, where have you been all my life? "Ediye mi." I smiled at every comments.
Then I noticed the last comment which read "Finally, someone is back" I hissed when I saw the message was from Timi.

"Must he comment?" I rudely asked. Putting my phone away and stare at my wardrobe.

What do I wear to church today? I said

I sluggishly left my bed to my wardrobe, brushing my hands on each clothes that were hanged. My left had stayed on the my white laced gown.

"Oh today's Thanksgiving service, this should be perfect." I brought out my laced gown and laid it on my bed.

Hey, good morning. Emma greeted from the door as she leaned with her hands wrapped on her waist.

"Good morning" I replied with a warm smile.

Emma giggles.

"What's funny?" I curiously asked.

She walks into my room and sat on the bed.

My conscious mover ahead to shift my dress from her.

I see you finally took my advice. She said.

"I no blame you." I laughed and said. Hope you're ready for church?
