I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and I looked to the screen. And when I tell you I was really disappointed I really was disappointed because it wasn't the Grand Union Hotel but I was my dad.

"Hi dad" I began the call and I could see that Demi was also disappointed. "Hey honey my dad began.  "I forgot my house keys and your mother it done with working after me so are you home?" He asked me. "Yes dad I'm home and I'll open the door for you" "but das I was waiting for  a important call so please text me if you need me" I said to him "oh okay I will honey. "Okay bye dad" I said and I ended the call
Aaaggggrrhhh I groaned, I was so frustrated that it was my dad. " is it okay if I lose hope now" I said while looking at Demi. " yeah it's getting late" she said.  I signed and said "Well there goes my dream" while I stood up to bring my plate to the dishwasher. "Oh come on it's not over yet" Demi said "there will be more hotels you can work for" she said. "No I know but I don't want to work in other hotels I want to work there" I said.

I probably made it bigger than it was in the end it was just an hotel. It probably is just an normal boring hotel to work at.

My shifts at the current hotel I worked we're getting more and more boring and days felt longer. I really thought of quitting but I just couldn't.




























                     .....Half a year later.....
























"Hello Lara speaking" I said while answering my phone. I was sitting on my couch with a plate of spaghetti. I didn't knew the number so I was scared it was like the hospital or something, I always think of the worst when numbers call me I don't know.  I putted my plate on the table to be more focused on the phone call "Hello good afternoon my name is Zala Kovač, I work for the Grand Union Hotel. And when I heard that name my mouth fell open. "Oh hello good afternoon" I said I really didn't know what to say. "We saw that you applied for this job around half a year ago and we are looking for someone and we still had all the forms from half a year ago and your resume really stood out to us." She began. "We would love to fly you over to get to know you and see if you would fit in here" she said. I was speechless and I was silent for a solid few seconds. And I think it was to quit for to long because Zala began to speak again "If you're still interested of course" she said after. "Oh I'm so sorry I just had to process what you just told me" I said with a awkward smile. "Oh don't worry it's okay" Zala said. " I don't really have to think about it I would love to come" I said. We said our goodbyes and and I jumped up and I ran though the whole house while jumping and  spinning "yes yes yes yes" was the only thing I could say. I was home alone, my parents were at work so I had all the space to be happy because if my parents were home they would have shushed me a long time ago. Omg I have to call Demi I thought to myself. I ran back to the couch to grab my phone first I had to catch my breath again. When I was finally breathing normally I called Demi to tell her the good news " hey Demi what yaaaaa dooooing?" I asked her "oh nothing much" I said " I have to tell you something...... I GOT THE FACKING JOB IN LJUBLJANA" I yelled. " WHAT WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE FUCK" was all she said. "How come it's so random" she said. "Ehhmm they had an open spot and when they were looking at the forms from half a year ago and they were really interested in mine." I said. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Demi yelled. "We have to celebrate.

Shit I also had to tell my parents but I had no idea how because they never let me go. I'm 20 why are they like this? Okay I'll just tell them during dinner tomorrow I'll just drop it slowly. Yeah I'm gonna do that.

It was the next day and I had a call again from Zala she asked for my number and email so we could start planning to meet up, they would pay all my costs and I could sleep in the hotel. That just took a lot of weight of my shoulders. But now I had to tell my parents shit......

Mom, dad I have to tell you something....
I began during dinner. " I got a job offer at a super nice hotel that I've always wanted to work" I said. I purposely left out that it was in a whole different country. "Omg we are happy for you" my mom said " what hotel is it?" My dad asked while he took out his phone from his pocket. " Grand Union Hotel" I said and I saw my dad typing. "WHAT NO you're gonna decline that offer." My dad said angrily" "what why"  my mom asked. " it's in facking Slovenia" he said. And me mom immediately looked at me " no you are definitely not going there." "Why not I'm an adult I don't need your approval" I can go where I want" I said. They fell quit because they didn't know what to say next, but they didn't had to say something next because I got up angrily from my chair and I stormed upstairs and I went to my room. I'm definitely going I don't care that they don't approve, they can't keep treating me like I'm their 12 year old daughter because I'm not that kid anymore.

I would leave in 2 days so I got my suitcase and I grabbed some clothes and other stuff. And I began to pack because I'm gonna go in 2 days no matter what. And maybe after my first visit they don't want me so then my parents won but I'm gonna try to get it because I never thought I would get this chance again in my life so I'm gonna fight for it.
