Penelope is not that important to me now. I have my own life now, and she has, too.
Years passed and I graduated from high school and I took up Information Technology. Beside from playing chess, I also liked computers that's why I took that course. I studied very hard because I want to go abroad to work.
I am not sure whether I will still search for Penelope, because everytime I think of her, I remember our past - a hurtful past. So I guess, it's time to move on.
Time passed quickly and I got a job in U.S. My job is all about my course. I'm very happy because at last, my dream is coming true.
I got a job in Digital Works Company. I was hired to work on some special effects that are seen on television or movies. That was my ultimate dream, and now, I can show my skills about softwares, programs, and graphics.
One day, I was called by our boss.
"Mr. Sinclair, right?" he said as he sat on his big chair. His office was big enough to hold a meeting about projects and other stuff.
"Yes, sir?" I replied.
"Since you are newly hired in this company, I want you to do a project."
"What project, sir?"
"A manager of a certain network station called me yesterday and told me that they will be making a movie, a sci-fi movie. And since this is a graphics and computer company, I am assigning you and your department to be one of the makers. I also talked to the Graphics and Digital Designing Department and they liked the project. So, can I count on you?"
"Yes, sir."
"Good. Now, this is the number of the head of the GD Department. I want you to call it and have some plan and some talk about the project," he said as he handed me a card. I read it and a name of "Penelope Adams" was printed there.
"This sounds familiar," I whisphered to myself.
"You can go now, Mr. Sinclair. I'm looking forward to it," my boss said as he stood up and shook my hand.
"Thanks sir. You can count on me," I replied. Then I went out of his room.
I wondered to myself the name "Penelope." It really sounds familiar. I don't know what part of me longered for her but there is something that made my heart jumped when I saw it.
