The Maid

Offer

Morning

Minji's pov:

I was drinking my coffee while reading some books in the living room. Not long enough, hearing some footsteps coming down seeing a white woman wearing her pajamas. She looked at me awkwardly but she bowed to me before proceeding to the kitchen, before she could go I stopped her.

"Hanni"

"Uh i-i uhm? Me??"

"Yeah, you. Who else is here" I replied

"Ohh, I'm sorry Mrs. Kim. Is there any uhm... Problem? Request?"

"I just wanna jump to the point, I'm offering you something. I'm offering you to become one of the runaway models for our Fashion Festival, don't worry your salary will be reaching up to 10,000 Dollars if the sale has an excellent performance."

"W-what? Why me?" She asked

"Why? you don't want to? I'm okay with it" I shrugged

"No no no, what I mean Mrs. Kim is that... Why me instead of others who are more y'know... Prettier and deserving"

"Why you, Hanni Pham? Because I want to. And what do you mean by prettier?" I replied with serious tone

"I don't know Mrs. Kim I just- I'm not into this stuff's and besides I'm not that alluring " she said

I just sighed and gave her a contract to sign for the modelling.

"Here, I knew you can do it. Just trust yourself, it's not bad as what you think. Trust your beauty, you're beautiful. And I'll offer you 10,000 dollars to do this offer. It's your decision, no pressure. I'm just recommending you. Besides, there's a lot of benefits for this offer, including your wants and needs. You can purchase it without hesitation. We can find other models if you disagree about this offer. I just asked you about this one since you have the potential and like what I've said No Pressure" I stood up and walked away from her.

I left her dumbfounded looks like she has been lost from the forest. Looking to the contract that I gave to her. She probably is confused as fuck right now.
I just laughed about her current expression since she really look hesitant. I shrugged and went outside the house so that I could go to the company.

Hanni's pov:

I went downstairs to eat for breakfast since my class will be starting at 9:30 and it's already 7:14, so I still have my time to prepare for Maeve's lunch box.
To my surprise, Mrs. Kim was sitting in the living room, reading a book while sipping her coffee. She's wearing formal attire, She looked at me and I smiled while bowing at her awkwardly. I was heading to the kitchen but she surprisingly called my name. Of course, I felt like I was in a freezer since I really avoid her after what happened about that Night where everything started awkwardly. But she seems unbothered about what happened between us, but I also thought... What if she doesn't really remember about that night since she's just you know... Professional??? Or just Nonchalant?? Or really can't remember everything. Anyway, back to reality...

"Uh i-i uhm? Me??"

"Yeah, you. Who else is here" Mrs. Kim spoke

"Oh yeah who else is here, non other than me and Mrs. Kim, Dumbass Pham"
I said on my own thoughts.

Wait the fuck up??? 10,000 dollars??
That's massive.... I could already buy my own needs for this one and also I could start my saving journey. Could pay my College tuition without carrying any heavy stuff's. Should I accept this or not? This is a great opportunity, but I'm not pretty nor beautiful not likely to other girls. Gosh, I'm such a loser.

I sighed and still hesitating to sign the contract but instead of signing it. I put it inside my pocket and proceed to the kitchen to start my tasks.

I finished my tasks and already did my breakfast. I entered my room, organized my school supplies and cleaned myself up. After that I chose my outfits and putting my perfume on. Vanilla scent. I brushed my hair again and re-applied some of my lip gloss before getting out to my room. I checked the time and already 8:23 and I need to be fast like an cheetah right now.

I get in to the taxi as I hop in, I remembered that the contract was still here to my pocket. So I picked it and read the text again.

"We will offer you 10,000 dollars as you do your modelling job"

"This is a big opportunity, no need to be insecure anymore hanni." I talked to myself as I leaned my head to the window.

I sighed and signed it, right away.

"Whatever will be, will be hanni."

LUNCH BREAK

"Hanniyaaaa~!!"

Someone called me as a turned my back.
Seeing a tall and jolly guy.

"Oh sup jungwonnie" I replied

"Where you heading at?" He asked me

"Oh, just going to buy some foods at the cafeteria. Why? Have you eaten?" I asked him

"No, actually. But since you're going to eat I'mma gonna also and buy some foods" He said

"Okay, let's go" I replied

We head to the cafeteria for something else to eat and we proceed to sit on the chairs.

"Oh yeah jungwon, you experienced being a model before right?" I asked him

"Yeah, why?" He said as he chew his food.

"Uh, oh, Just my boss offered me some modelling job for the runaway festival thingy. I mean my face is not that fashionable lol. Whatever that is pshh.." I said

"Yowww!! You kidding me? Hello!!?? Like H-A-N-N-I P-H-A-M, literally your beauty is literally soooo fantastic and what do you mean by not Fashionable?? Are you blind?? You're so stunning as hell hanni, i swear to god" he replied

"Pshh, oh c'mon jungwon I know you. Maybe you're just saying those stuffs so I could feel better or not so stressed over those things" I said

"Yeah you know me, and i know that you know that I love saying the things that could make you feel good or feel comforted. But what if I am really stating the fact, Imagine hanni the offer really came to you or maybe the universe just gave that to you, so it's meant for you. Do not focus on WHAT IF'S Negative, focus on the WHAT IF Positive. That offer Remember, Regretting always happens in the end."

"Y'know what jungwon, you never failed to make me encourage and inspired as always" i said

"Lemme see the contract letter that your boss offer you" he said as I took it out in my pocket.

He read it carefully.

"Hmm, imagine that. If this offer would be offered to me I would accept it right away. I mean your just gonna walk in the middle of the crowd then boom! Received the 10,000 offer. See, Hanni I know that you can do it, even other people believe in you, it's just yourself who's saying that you can't. believe in yourself, there are some things other people can't do but you're capable of doing it. do not compare yourself with others because you're unique. Just don't give a fuck about what others gonna think of you, focus on your goal. Judging others is normal nowadays but at least if you got that 10,000, you can help yourself, can buy anything you need, you can do anything with your money. Everything has a consequence. This is the world hanni, a world that is always cruel. Someone judge you? At least you got the money or even achieved your goals. You can do it hanni, just trust yourself. You're the main character of your life. You make a story for your life. Cause in the very end, no one is gonna save but yourself." he said

I sighed and took the letter contract from him.

"Here goes nothing" I signed the letter contract and I sighed.

"Congratulations hanni, I know you can do it" he said as he approached to hug me and I hugged him back.

"Thank you for encouraging me jungwon, you're the best guy friend I could ask for" I said.
