          DON'T FORGET TO VOTE AND COMMENT XOXO.

                                                                     ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨

  I was never good at dealing with rejection or failur, so when I opened my mails this noon and finally got the responce to my application at LEO one of the most known company in the  industry I got exited only to find,

"we are sorry to informe you Miss.Deaver that the position you'are applying for is no longuer, but we will be thrilled to have you join our groupe, once there's the right position for you"

To say I was disappointed is not enough, I was shocked, I never thought I won't get it, I checked all the right boxes. I don't understand.

I'm the youngest daughter of David Deaver the proud founder of D&D, the largest american retailers specializing in the distribution of DIY, gardening and decoration items, I wouldn't have a problem getting a job at dad's,  he even would have been thrilled to have me by his side,just like my older brother. 

Only if I dindn't have a Phd in biotech, I was a high achiever still, a perfectionist just like my dad , I graduated every grade with honour, had the highest scores in univesity, that's why when I applied for the position as a genetic engineer, I didn't  expect to be rejected.

I can already hear my moms voice nagging at me for not getting my degree in economics and joining the familly business, a subject we've been over a million times that I thougt we would be over it this month because I would have got the job of my dreams.

So here I am entering my depressed mood, I grabed the nearest blanket ready to call it a day, taking a nap in the sofa, reconsidering my life choices, while FRIENDS are playing in the backround.

                                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The alarme start beeping, I look over and it says 9:00 o'clock, "shit," I get up the bed in a rush heading to the bathroom, I don't even remember when I moved to my room, i bush my teeth and do my business, I grabe my phone on my way to the kitchen to make myself breakfast, my phone buzzes in my hand with my dad's call, i sigh then answer " heeey dad," my dad answers with a beam in his voice "good morning,sunshine,whatcha doing" ,I tell him about today's plan "I promised Layla to get breakfast together, i'm even running up late and you know how much she respects time," my dad laughs,"she can be very scary," my dad calls for time to time to talk about sweet nothing, but I'm feeling that this time is not the case,

"tell me is there any news about the job application, me and your uh, mother were waiting for ur call," and just like that my mood went down again, I know for a fact that my mother is the one who forced him to call me, I wish I was able to tell YEEES, I got it , take that mom, but as hard as it is I can't deny that maybe she was right about me choosing the wrong degree,

But the thing is I don't regret it, I chose biology out of love, I love the feeling of wearing my white coat in the labo, and crying over stupid cells, I love science, and I'm proud.

"I got a response yesterday," I sigh gathering the strenth to break the news, "Ididn'tgetit" i say in a rush, my dad respond "what did you say i couldn't catch tha-",my mom cuts in "oh,it's very clear she couldn't get it", I can literally hear her snatching the phone from dad, "Oliver Kate Deaver, how in the love of god you got rejected?" she says in a tone that used to scare the life out of me when I was younger, using my full name, oh god, here goes nothing;

"Mom you're just complicating things, it's just a job, and also the first job that I  applied to, there're a lot of other companies that I could apply to," I say in defending tone, "also i didn't get it because the position I applied for was already taken", I hear my dad rumbling in the backround probably saying somthing like go easy on her, remind me to buy this man a gift ;

"Ollie, you made a bad decision when you dind't choose economics as your degree like your brother, you could've easily joines the D&D familly, but because you only want to be diffren-"; I cut her off before she could complete the same one-sided dialogue she been singing years now, comparing me to my brother, insulting my life choices, "mom, I gotta go Layla is here, talk to you later say bye to dad," I hung up before she could protest, lying about Layla being here; speaking of wich I open our text messages to find her text: something happend, can't make it, tell you later, weird.

                                                             ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I spent the morning applying to diffrent companies deciding that sitting and whining about things I can't change wouldn't benefit me, so I should take matters, after that i took myself for walk to the park because the house started suffocating me


My dad message finds me when I'm out, DAD: hey sunshine, sorry about your mom this mornig, you know she just want wha's good for you. Anyway I'll let you enjoy your day, call me if you need anything, I can pull some stings for you if you want.

My dad told before that he has seveal connections in the industry and he can easily get me in any company I want, but I don't want to get job with anything but my power and my competence, it's not fair, call me stupid call whatever you want I know others will find no problem doing it but not me.

For example my brother, he's the type of guy that a "no" doesn't stop him, he's morally grey,  What matters to him is achieving his goals not necessarily how he go about doing so, 

Ryle is two years older than me, and although we were so close when we were younger, once we hit puberty and we started having diffrent ways of thinking, we grew apart from each other, he was the sibling who shaped his whole future to take care of the familly business, obliging my parents, mentally and financially stable, whilst I was the black sheep, as  mother likes to say doing everything I can to be diffrent than them even though that's not the case.
