ADORA P.O.V.:
'Good morning', my friend Alicia greeted me back. I went to the kitchen to cook something for us.
'Adora, I'm feeling too slothful to cook, we also have college to go to. For today, let's have something on our way?'
'Okay', I said in agreement. It's Monday morning, I honestly don't mind skipping meals. I am used to skipping meals which is very unhealthy.
Alicia went to take a bath, we only have one bathroom because of course, we don't live in a lavish house. I and Alicia have decided on who will go for a bath first, the reason for it is our Understanding. See, I take too much time to bath whereas she takes time to do her make-up. While she is bathing, I take time to choose my outfit. You see, I'm not a make-up person but that doesn't make me less stylish or someone who is a prude. I love to look fresh and feel fresh, I love wearing simple but stylish and comfortable clothes, I love to dress-up. On the contrary, Alicia likes to wear make-up everyday, she took cosmetology because she has a thing for make-up, she does encourage me to wear it and I encourage her to not to wear make-up, we both end up not listening to each other. While I take a bath, she applies her make-up and that is how we manage our time.
We left earlier than we usually do, we directly went to the canteen of the university. We had our coffee and left for our respective class. College went by pretty good except for English Literature. The professor is so boring, but thanks to my classmate Aaron, he was pretty funny during the class, he charms people with his sense of humour. He passed comments which made the class laugh, I felt guilty about laughing, it was disrespectful on our professor's part. Of course, the professor kicked him out and after that I had to force myself to keep my eyes open.
Alicia took the day off from her work. As she had her day off, She didn't want to waste her time at home. So we went to a cafe to waste our time along with gossip and food for which we had to pay.
'Alicia, I cannot afford anything. Remember? I have lost my job. It's been ten days, I have applied for some job, sadly i have got no response from them',
'Oh come on, don't be modest, you didn't lose the job, you left it. You left that filthy job for a very good, a valid reason. That workplace definitely doesn't deserve good employees like you. It is their loss, not your's'.
'Irrespective of the fact, I am still jobless. Being jobless is equivalent to money-less which means i cannot pay for the rent and for the food, human's basic necessity'.
'Don't sweat it Adora, until you are jobless, let me pay'
'No, i can't let you do that', it is embarrassing'
'I'm sure allowing your friend to pay is less embarrassing than sleeping on the street with an empty stomach. Besides, take this as a loan, once you have a job, pay me back'
'I agree with you. Okay then, this is a deal, once i have my job, i will pay you back'. After our little conversation, she left to meet her boyfriend, she offered to drop me home but I denied as they barely have time to spend with each other.
As i was walking my way to the exit, I saw an old lady who was gonna seriously get herself injured by stepping on the spilled liquid on the floor. I was just there to take a hold of her hand and pull her, she was quite shocked and so were the audience. I wouldn't take that as an offense, I would have been shocked too if i were at their place, she and the others didn't exactly know about the spilled liquid. Before she could yell at me, I pointed out the spilled liquid, she and the others made an expression of 'oh, I see'.
The audience went back to doing their own business whereas the lady turned to look at me and thanked me, 'Thank god you were here, i was about to get myself badly injured'
'Oh, don't worry about it, it was no problem', i smiled and was about to go on my way when she just stopped me and said; 'Listen, I didn't intent to over hear your conversation with your friend but couldn't help as i could hear you on my table which was next to yours. Anyway, my boss is looking for a secretary and you are looking for a job', She looked for something in her handbag, she took out a card and handed it to me. 'This is my number, there is an Interview tomorrow, if you are interested, you can ring me up on this number, i will guide you with the address and the timing'.
I was a bit confused, I didn't understand why she would help me, I simply voiced my thought, 'I don't understand, why would you do this?'
'The only reason for sharing a simple information regarding the job which you seem to need is to thank you. You helped me right now, as a thank you, I'm only sharing the information, it is not a huge deal. I'm not offering you the job, the Interview is on you, if you do well, you'll be selected, if not, you'll be rejected'.
'This simple "thank you", is a chance for me. I'm in a desperate need of a job, I will definitely call you, hope you'll guide me with the information, thank you'.
We bid goodbye and left towards our destination.
