A NEW LIFE
***REG'S POV ***
"What!!!,king is resigning?" I asked claire,already knowing what her answer will be.
"I was also surprised but on the other hand it means he is expecting a better paid job." She said trying to make the atmosphere less tense.
Just graduating from high school and deciding not to enter college straightaway has been boring but not until i heard from claire that there was a vacancy in a school that just opened. I was not really interested until she said my long time crush King was going to be there. I had immediately submitted an application form,even after that i really was not expecting to be called. Then,after a month i was called for the vacancy of a cleaner.
"You are really gonna be a cleaner?" My younger sister Benita had asked. Looking from how wide her eyes has become,i knew it her way of asking me 'don't you know what to do? , just take the employment letter given to you and throw on their cowed faces'. But i just shrugged my shoulders
"I'm the one looking for a job and if thats what they have i'll grab it ."
And that was how i started working as a cleaner. I won't say i love the work but because King was also employed (as a teacher) and seeing his face everyday makes my heart ache less, i threw my face on all the positive sides of the job and did it with all enthusiasm.
And now he is going?
Does that even make sense?
Can't he just stay because of me? Can't he just look at my face for once? I was really getting angry and seeing my face getting all hot and red made my best friend to take a cautious step backwards.
"Hey hey what ya duin?".From her tone i knew she knew me enough to know my next move but her tone this time held sympathy which is one thing i hate giving myself and it made me more angry.
"Fuck him,fuck the job,fuck everything". I said pulling my hair as a sign of my agony.
But in romance novels,after the maximum of five years of having crush on someone,the person finally looks at you and tells you he has always loved you and because of some circumstances he could not profess his love and then you guys will start a relationship which ends in marriage and give that 'happily ever after' you've always wanted. Why cant my life be like that? Must i cry every night to the fact that he did not even realized theres someone dying for him and then when i see him all my anger that i've stored up to one day pour on him will take to their hills and hide where i wont see them till he leaves and then they will come back more fierce killing me with a sharper two edged sword
"So where is he now"
"I don't know"
In that instant i decided to resign too,afterall theres no happiness if he is not there
I took out a long sheet and a pen
"Claire,remind me ,how did you resign from that old job of yours".
Not that i cant write a resignation letter but telling someone you wont work with them again knowing fully well they needed you badly was one thing i can't comprehend now.
"You wants to resign because your crush resigned,dear friend can i classify you among those who are mentally unstable". She said making me roll my eyes at her.
She continued ignoring me
"Do you know how much you are losing by resigning,please before my mouth get zipped i'll like to tell you something ". I just wanted to hit her head on the wall right now. Still glaring at her i told her to continue
"Please spare yourself sometime and start making a new life, go to the church or something,anything but forget about that asshole who dont know if you exist or not ".
I can see she is trying to be good friend but she is not a saint herself so i found it annoying that she is calling my crush an asshole or its because its him maybe i wont find it annoying if it were someone else. But then i heard something
Church
Well thats a good way of letting out my frustration. Believing there is a supreme being and pouring out your heart for him in a manner of prayer. I would have prferred sex but its not been long i had one and in between my legs hurt. I'll just have to try the church something but i'll have to make do with the resignation letter afterall tomorrow is sunday.
"Do you want me helping you". Claire said, looking at the paper and pen.Breaking me out of my thoughts. I looked at her with a smile.
"What would i have done without you sexy bitch". I said with a bit of sarcasm in my voice
With a smile she answered, taking the paper from my hand and shaking her head. "nothing baby, nothing"
