...
📞: "Hi, good morning Binibini Rhea."
Rhea
📞: "H-how did you know my name?"
The unknown woman chuckled softly at Rhea's reaction, finding it amusing.
...
📞: "Well Binibini, did you forget about me? Ouch, it hurts you know." *in a teasing tone*
Rhea
📞: "Well who are you?" ( her voice is kinda familiar...)
Rhea paused, thinking for a moment and realization hit her as she immediately recognized the woman.
Keziah
*smiles widely with amusement and laughs softly* 📞:" Guilty as charged. You're right, sorry for not telling you. It was fun to hear you guessing a random woman calling you. It's cute.
Rhea
(haysst this girl...) 📞: "Well that's what I thought. You're the Only person who called me Binibini.
Keziah
📞: " Oh then I must be special, giving you nicknames, Binibini."
Rhea
📞: " By the way, how did you find out my number? I don't remember giving you my number at the bar."
Keziah
📞: " Well let's just say... I had ways to get your number."
Rhea
(Seriously?? What ways??)
Rhea
📞: " Hmm I wonder what ways...but yeah you're really something."
Keziah
📞: "Maybe I am. By the way how are you? I know we just met but, I just wanted to say hi."
Rhea was stunned to reply as she suddenly felt her heart beat fast. Those words that Keziah said got her nervous and something she can't quite understand...
Rhea
(She wants to greet me? Uhh...shit! What should I say?)
Rhea
(I actually never had someone greet me like this. We just met)
Keziah
📞: "Uhh... hello? Are you still there Binibini?"
Rhea
*came back to her senses and gets embarrassed* 📞: "oh yeah, sorry I suddenly zone out. Oh, and yeah I'm good, how about you?"
Keziah
📞: "Well actually I'm good, still busy as always."
Rhea
(Busy? Is she at her workplace?)
Rhea
📞: "Oh, I see where are you?"
Keziah
📞: "Oh in my office actually, I just finished my reports and stuff for the company."
Rhea
(I guess she is at her workplace. I wonder if I could ask her about it...)
Rhea
📞: "May I know what company are you in? Just curious..."
Keziah
📞: "Actually in the Blackwood Company."
Rhea
*surprised and speechless* (Blackwood? Isn't that the most popular and strong company in the whole city?)
Rhea
📞: "Ohh really? That's great!... I mean that's amazing. Mostly people are trying to apply for a job there but, some many failed due to its strictness and professionalism. How did you get in?"
Keziah
📞: "Well like I said... Skills and knowledge and yeah...got in."
Keziah chuckled softly at her reaction, finding it amusing.
Keziah
📞: "Well are you satisfied by my answers? Or do you still have any questions?"
Rhea
📞: "Uhh yeah absolutely... Curiosity gets the better of me."
Rhea
📞; "So which means... You're on your lunch break?"
Keziah
📞: "Bingo. Yeah, but it will last an hour before I go back to work. How about you? Do you have a job?"
Rhea
📞: "Uhh... Actually no but I am still trying to find one." it's been two hours since I couldn't find one... to pay off the huge debt I didn't pay for months."
Keziah
📞: "Hmm... I see. How about you should try to apply here at Blackwood Company?"
Rhea was surprised at the sudden advice from Keziah, making her question and thought it internally.
Rhea
📞: "But isn't that the most hard one to apply for? I mean their interview system is the biggest percentage which is the experience and the way they handle it."
Rhea
📞: "Not to mention though, it's 60 percent of the system."
Keziah
📞: "Well we actually had a meeting a while ago, which its confirmed that if you don't have experience from your previous job they have to look through your certificate and other files at where you went for college."
Keziah
"They said that if you did actually pass 90 plus, they will agree and take you in for an interview immediately."
Rhea was surprised and felt hope. Hopefully she had the chance as her heart race.
Rhea
📞: "Ohh really? Then I guess I'll try to apply there. I mean it would be great since I got 90 plus during my college days."
Rhea
" By the way, thanks for telling me that. You really are a great friend."
Keziah
📞: "You're mostly welcome, Binibini."
Rhea
📞: "Well I should hang up, I have to get ready for my files and documents. Goodbye and thanks again!"
Keziah
* chuckles softly* 📞: "Well then goodbye and good luck."
Rhea hung up and stood up abruptly as she rummaged through her drawers, looking for her documents and files.
As hours went by, she picked up all her documents and files, organizing them neatly. She felt excited and grateful for the opportunity she had encountered a while ago.
Thankful to her friend, Keziah, she was given advice and hope for applying to the Blackwood Company.
