MY DESTINY

Chapter 1

Vianca's POV

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock which was ringing and vibrating on my night stand. I groaned and stretched my hand out from my warm blanket and bed to the night stand and switched off the alarm. As I shifted a bit in the bed the sunlight which was entering in my room from the small gaps in the curtains, was now directed towards my face. I rubbed my eyes a bit and slowly sat up on the bed. I took a glance at the alarm clock and checked the time, which was 7am. I quickly got up from the bed and folded my blanket and kept it aside.

It was the first day of February and today was interview with a well known company called Martinez Inc for the post of personal assistant. I had done masters in business administration and I was looking for a good, well paid job. This was my 2nd interview because I had failed in my first interview which was last week because the owner of that company told me that he will hire me only if I provide him sexual services. He had also tried to touch me inappropriately. I got very angry due to his cheap behavior and I rejected his silly offer and walked out of his office quickly. Even though I need money to pay our bills and to look after my ill mother and to raise my sister but I will never do anything immoral or wrong to earn money. My mother has taught me and my sister that we should always remain honest and we should keep working hard. I want to make my mom and sister proud and I want to give them a better lifestyle. But that does not mean I will sell myself and my dignity for money. I will always choose the right path and I will keep working hard for my family.

My dad passed away in an accident when I was 12 and my sister was 5. My mother has worked very hard to provide a good life to me and my sister. I got admission in a very good university on scholarship. We live in a small 2 bedroom apartment which was on the outskirts of New York. We were not that poor, we had enough money to meet our daily needs. My mother has heart trouble since last year and doctor has told us that she should not take any stress.
I was engrossed in my thoughts when suddenly my phone beeped and I got out of my slumber. I walked towards my study table and took my phone which was kept on the table in my hands. I unlocked my phone and there was a notification which read:

One text message from Nelsa😘😘

I quickly clicked on it to read my bestie, Nelsa's text.

Hey! morning sista n good luck for ur interview today I knw u'll rock it😉.... dont worry give ur best..... u'll get this job nd if its a perv like last time then slap him😁 bye bye bestie

A smile made its way on my face after I read her text. Nelsa was my best friend from childhood. We had met when we were in primary school and since then we became besties forever. Even though we fight sometimes but we are inseparable. She is my only true friend. I love her very much and she is like my sister from another mother. The most important people in my life are mom, Nelsa and Vanessa, David and Kevin.

I replied a quick thank you to her text and checked the time in my phone which read, 7.11am. My interview was at 9am and the office was about an hour away from my apartment. I did not wanted to be late so I quickly went in the bathroom and did my business. I then brushed my teeth and took a hot shower and washed my body with my rose flavored body wash. After I was done with it I came out of the shower and wrapped my petite body in a soft lavender coloured towel. I came out of the bathroom and made my way towards my small closet.
