"Anna can you leave?"
I could see Anna was hurt by what I said.
"Nicolle... Justin has a new girlfriend..." Anna said slowly.
For the past few days I've felt nothing, nothing at all. I was numb. But right now, I feel as if a knife was cutting through my heart, it feels so painful.
I felt a tear roll down my cheek.
I hugged Anna and cried for the next three hours.
"Hello?"
"Is this Ms. Nicolle Millions?" a man said.
"Yes, why?"
"I would like to inform you that you have been accepted to the job you applied as hotel manager"
"Oh really? Thank you" I said half heartedly.
I'm not really excited about getting a new job. I just wanted a better pay and also to start a new life somewhere else.
"You'll have training for a week then you'll fly to Nassau in the Bahamas and officially start your job"
I expected a job at a hotel somewhere in New York, not in another island-paradise. Not a place like Boracay. Not in a place where I would be constantly reminded of our memories together.
My first week at my job was hell. I was wonderful at my job but I was like a robot, programmed to do the tasks with no emotion. I've learned to adapt myself and slowly I've gotten used to how things go.
I would wake up at six and have coffee and breakfast. Then my driver would pick me up at seven and I would arrive just in time to work at the hotel. It is like that everyday except Wednesdays and Sundays.
My life is simple.
