In Between
I stare blankly at the building in front of me contemplating whether I can do this or not. It is probably going to be fine right?...
I watch as multiple people walk in a hurry and start to bite on my nails in order to avoid the reality of the situation in front of me.
I needed this job more than anyone else, I can't afford to get kicked out of the apartment again. I can't disappoint Kyra.
"Ms Anderson, you're next" The lady in charge said bringing me back to reality. I walk in into the office where the interview is being held and stood in front of the interviewers nervously.
“It states here that you're a single mother. Would you like to explain yourself?" A young man who seem to be in his mid-twenties among them asked, and I frowned.
“You want me to explain why I am a single mother?" I asked in disbelief as it is my first time hearing this ridiculous question.
"You heard me right" He said and the atmosphere in the room turns quiet and silence fills the air while I chuckle to myself.
"I feel that's a personal question which I am not obligated to answer" I said not wanting to open up a closed wound.
"Then am afraid, you can't get a job here" he said with a stupid smile on his face.
"Excuse me!"
"You heard me and can you kindly take your leave. There are other participants waiting in line." He said earning a scoff out of me.
He isn't even going to interview me because I won't answer a personal question.
He is definitely stupid or has probably gone crazy right?.
Am I the only one who is confused on crazy manner to which he has just spoken?
I stood up and proceed to leave but not without giving him the to hell with you look.
"Am pretty sure that look wasn't reserved for me?" He said making my blood rise.
"Actually, It was. Considering the fact that you decided to act like a douche bag, but I guess that's how things work over here but just to clarify matters here, you are an egoistic bastard, a selfish and annoying idiot" I said before walking out leaving the other members in disbelief...
"So you practically abuse him just because he asked a question" Kyra said as I explain my ordeal to her.
"He kind of deserve it considering the fact that he is prying into a personal matter". I said as I pour myself a glass of water and take a seat beside her.
"Well, you know how much you need a job and the pay at that company is pretty high, you could've just lied to him and maybe get the job at least" She said as she goes through her phone.
"I don't think I will last a week in that company even if I had gotten the job. The guy seem to be the annoying and crazy type and heavens know what would have happened if I had stayed" I said making her roll her eyes.
My phone dings with a notification and I open it to reveal....
"I am pleased to inform you that you've passed the interview process of job selection and an email has been sent alongside the information on when to join the company. We look forward to working with you"
I reread the message and confirm the name in case I had been mixed up with someone else.
"Is everything okay?, you look like you've just seen a ghost or at least got messaged by one" Kyra asked as she chewed loudly on her apple.
"I got in" I said, and she hummed.
"What!!!!!" She screamed almost destroying my eardrum in the process.
"You got in after the crazy stuff you pulled?" She asked and I nodded showing her the message.
"And you're sure that this isn't a mistake?"
“It has my name on it" I said while staring at the notification again.
"Why do I have a feeling that this is not going to end well?" She asks as she crushes me into a hug....
Maybe it will or maybe it won't....
