Mars' POV
Finally the day that gives me sour thoughts is finally here. Why today?
Why go?
Despite how hard I tried to reason out with Cumber to stay, deep down I knew well enough she needs this. It's now or never.
Family is worth everything.
It's been a while since she last visited them so it's a bonus point for her to go catch up. Maybe it's the thrill that their parents are having that their kids are so distant from them that they want to divorce. Who knows.
Since campus we've been together, from hostel cubes then we rented out just us together. So yes we haven't been apart. Maybe holidays but those we're just specific days or weeks but now I don't know how long she'll be back.
"Hey, don't worry we we'll be Skyping, calls, texts... Ohh come on hun." She softly utter as we move to the benches and wait for her plane call which is half an hour from now.
I really hate this feeling. Being in the rush pressure on Cumber leaving and the interview which is to take place tomorrow. Too much constraints and fuss. I can manage it.
"Honey take care if your mama for me and if she tries something weird scream, okay?"
I have a chit-chat with Ash.
I didn't know how fond I am of her up to now. Am going to miss this cutie.
"Ma-ma, an-ty"
She cheerfully utters clapping her hands.
I smiled. Yes almost cried. She called me aunty.
Aaaww I fucking love this kiddie.
"Aaaww you guys are going to make me cry. Come here kiddo."
Cumber softly says as she draws me into a hug.
I just complied, fell in and drowned myself in the embrace.
I inhaled deeply her fruity mixed perfume.
Am going to cry. Okay am already crying. Like am going to be all alone by myself? How will I manage? Keeping in mind Cumber will be in another country miles away.
*Please plane 5 passengers board in and...*
We were interrupted by the announcement. It's her plane number.
Cumb shoots me a worried look when we broke off from the embrace. I genuinely smiled.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Plus I have an interview to look forward to." I patted her back.
I had told her about it yester night but not in much details. Mentioned it's from Snorve Company and the reaction she gave me was, I don't know.
It was like mixture of happiness and worries. Nevertheless, she cleared up my assumptions with joyful comments which was so touching. Am glad she believes in me.
"Just promise me when you're bored, call up either Sharm, Darve or Kimberly?"
"I promise."
"Awesome. Before I forget, I just know it you'll pass the interview. So don't worry much about it." She smirked.
"You now a prophetess? Are you kidding me?" I chuckled.
"Yeah yeah. Just trust me."
"Thanks hun, that means a lot to me. Well travel safe. Make sure you tell me when you arrive home."
"Sure will. Bye love."
I want to say bye back but I just can't. I hate goodbyes. They're like sour heart breaks. I just stood there watching her rushing to the other side to where her plane is.
I feel a like am crushed. I grabbed by clutch purse and made my way to the exit.
What next!
I thought to myself.
I decided to drop by at the market buy some chocolates and take away lunch.
After all the commotions, I drove home.
Chills.
I decided to put music so that it booms the house at least to kill the silence tension then I lazily dragged myself to the table with my pizza.
I opened up my laptop and do some deep search on Snorve Company while I take my lunch.
I want to be fully prepared for anything. No bluffs.
The rest of the day was just arranging my documents ready for the big day. I decided to take a nap earlier so that I hear my alarm in the morning.
I know, am that of a deep sleeper.
Am now good. Cumb texted me they arrived safe.
Relief.
We didn't detailing talk because she was really tired and I had to sleep early so we just talked a bit, exchanged our good nights and called it a day.
~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•
Krrrrr! Krrrrrrr! Krrrrrr!
I hate alarms. I stretched my arms out and snoozed it.
Dammit! I cursed with so much slothfulness.
I moved out of the bed, stretched my body out and took a glance at my watch again.
8:00am.
I have one hour to prepare and be there before 9.
Why couldn't I set it earlier?
I dashingly dodged myself in the bathroom. Took a quick shower, brushed my teeth and hair and finally the most troubling decision of all: choosing a perfect wear for the interview.
Am I the only one who can go through my wardrobe a million times before I find the perfect outfit?
I groaned as I removed clothes out one by one. I flipped some and tossed them out.
I really need to sort out my clothes. Am such a lazy ass.
I decided on a blue skirt, white shirt and a blueish flat shoes.
8:35am.
Ooh hollies, I haven't had my breakfast yet. I took all my necessities for this big day and left the house.
I dropped by at a coffee shop. I ordered my coffee and as I was waiting I looked around the shop. I can see the looks at all the people in it. They're either thoughtful, stressed, full of anger or frustration.
I would love someday I open a coffee shop and call it "FUCK MORNINGS" and all the drinks can have all the cute names like
"am too early for this shit"
"my boss is an asshole"
''my in-laws are in town''
''fuck it, got an interview''
And they all come with a shot of tequila in them.
Such a crazy idea.
I smiled, not so bad at all. All this people will be thanking me for that.
"Here you go ma'am."
I paid and left.
Finally I've arrived. The place is pretty huge. It's not in their office building but I guess they own this building too.
Just as I expected. It's filling in so quick. I don't have a good feeling about this.
Am now to do my magics and win the post from all these people?
We just sat on our seats waiting to be given instructions on how the interview will be conducted. It's going to be a very hectic day.
I heavily sighed as I slowly sip my coffee.
I can do this.
If it's meant for me it's mine so I need not to suppress myself around.
How do you feel and think about the interview? Will she get the post? Will Lance and Mars meet and recognize each other?
What's your reaction on Cumber's departure?
Do you think Cumber will be gone for quite long?
