Noelle's POV.

Brielle and I were eating a nice breakfast which consisted of pancakes with sweet mulberry syrup as the topping a glass of orange juice for her while I had black coffee when Madam O popped by informing me that the she wouldn't be in the cafe today telling me the things needed to be done in her absence.

  

She also helped Brielle with eating her breackfast and putting on her black flats which matched well with her black blouse which had the words 'decendants' on it paired up with some baby blue jeans shorts. 

I was browsing on my phone still looking for a job when my eyes caught site of an advertisement.

'AR inc is looking for a Personal Assistant. If you are are qualified enough for this position please call the number below right away.'

Madam O saw the Advertisement also and gave me a knowing look.

"Why don't you call and ask about it, child?" She asked me. She knew I was looking for a new job and was behind me completely as long as I still visit her and she gets to see Bribri

"I don't know Madam O this is a big step, PA would mean a lot of work with the boss, I'd have to be by his side twenty four seven, attend meetings, do his diary, write his minutes, excetera, excectera, who knows if I'd even be able to be with Brielle during the day or most of day, I don't want to be far from her," I said concerned. I didn't want to be far away from my baby. Not now not ever.

"Well why do you think you have me Noelle,  Brielle can stay with me till whenever you come back from work, you can drop her off at the diner and pick her upwhen yourgoing back, and if your too tired one of the days I would be more than happy to bring her home" she suggested.

"I wouldn't want to intrude,"I said again even though she suggested it.

"Look dear opportunitys come but once and this could be it for you, now I will never forgive myself if you I don't persuade you to do this, and if I don't do this" she reached over and dialed the number on the screen calling  the company. As I started to complain the phone was answered.

"AR Inc, how may I assist you," a polite lady's voice came through the speaker.

"Good morning, I'm calling to apply for the available PA position," I said confidently even though my heart was pounding on the inside, but she didn't need to know that.

"Okay, ma'am for the job we will need to see your degree in business , a CV and your resume, we are also going to be doing a little educational back ground check, is that okay with you?" She asked.

Back ground check what the hell for, I asked myself.

"Hello, are you still there?" The voice asked again.

Snapping out of my thoughts I answered yes then asked when was the required date.

"Interviews will commence this Saturday so that the person who gets the job can come in Monday morning," I nodded but realized that she couldn't see me.

"Okay I understand," I answered. 

"I am going to need your name to write you down on the list miss...?"

"Young, Noelle Young," I answered. She told me what to do when I arrive and the building then we said our goodbye. When I got off the phone Brielle approached me with tears in her eyes.

"N-new job?" She asked hesitantly.

"I'm afraid so baby," I said lifting her unto my lap.

"But why isn't the cafe job nice, or is it because I ran off yesterday," my poor soul crumbles st the sight tears formed in my eyes when I heard that from my baby if only she knew.

"Of course not baby, sister just needs more money and this job can give sister that, if I get it then you'd still be able to visit Madam O, so you don't need to worry about that," I assured her.

She was a bit hesitant but shook her head anyway and went to get her stuffs together while I talked to madam O about what was to take place at work today.

After talking to her, I grabbed my jacket and headed out to the sitting room to see Brielle saying goodbye to someone on my phone. After she hung up she turned to me in the with the brightest smile on her face.

"Who was that honey?" I asked.

"Alex," she answered and I felt all the colours drain from my face. 

"What did he want?" I asked impatiently waiting for her answer.

"He said that he's coming for us tonight to bring is to dinner so you should be ready by around seven," she answered happily while I felt as if I was ready to throw up anytime time soon.

So many questions went through her mind as to what she was to wear, how would she make her appearance, what would people think or even say if they saw them together but she quickly brushed them off telling her self that those were all nonsense as Alexander Russel was just another face in the crowd.  

She quickly placed the matter at the back of her head waving goodbye to Madam O before they headed to the cafe. She did all the desired task that Madam gave then went to do my bit.

When it was almost midday I took Brielle to the small breakroom and handed her the cheese sandwich and orange juice that I packed for her lunch. I sat opposite of her eating the same thing before I went back to work before it was time to leave. My next work started in an hour at the library so I got a cab and went there. When I arrived I saw that the watchman, Fermino, was stocking the bookshelves. He was a elder but a strong supportive man that had been with me when I had no one also. He loves Brielle as his own grand-daughter  and spoilt her on occasions such as her birthdays, manners, and speech.

Fermino had a son but he died of a Alpers disease. He was diagnosed when he was 17 and there was no cure. They tried everyway possible but nothing helped. He died when he was twenty-one and ever since then Fermino was sad well that was until we came into his life. Seeing that we both had loses and sacrifices to make, we had developed a good father daughter relationship and it was good as he reminded me of my father Well a older version of him.

Sometimes just the thought made me sad and continuously thinking about them brought tears to my eyes. They were going to missa lot  of special things in my life but  I accepted that and moved on with my life with only one goal and that is to make sure that Brielle lives  a wonderful life even in the absents of our  parents I was all she had left and I was determined to make her happy in every way possible. 

"Good day fermino, need any help with that?" I asked.

"No my dear Noelle and Brielle tell me how are you guys today?" He had said.

"Oh I'm fine just came to do my job," I hesitated a bit. I still hadn't told Fermino that I was looking for a job because I didn't want to break his heart if I got one and seeing that I will be going for an interview soon I have to burst the bubble sooner or later.

"Are you alright dear one, you seem a little tensed," he looked at me curiously.

"Oh sorry nothing for you to worry about I'm fine," I assured him quickly.

"You know that you can talk to me about anything," he insisted "but I won't force you whenever your ready then I'll be here waiting for you," 

My heart ache when I heard that and I couldn't keep it in anymore. I would hurt him more of I didn't tell him the truth about it so it was now or never.

"F-Fermino I'm looking for a......................... a new j-job," I whispered out but he heard it. When I didn't hear him say anything I grew nervous and suddenly negative thoughts popped up into my head.

"I'm sorry Fermino its no that I don't like this job because I do, I just need extra money for Brielle to start school and it takes a lot to buy these things and.," but I was cut off by his sudden laughter.

"Dear one I'm no upset infact I am happy that your looking for a new job because you deserve more after all you've done" he said

"Just promise that I'll see my grandchild every now and then," he asked to which I nodded and promised.  I finished what Fermino started then went to  storeroom to get some romance novels when I was interrupted by my phone ringing. I fished it out  of my pocketbut  hesitated to answer as it was an unknown number nevertheless I answered after a while.

"Hello," I answered.

"Hello darling," came the voice of Alexander, " I just wanted to remind youndyou of our dinner date tonight dress formal and I'll pick you up at your condo at seven," 

"Alexander," I whispered out through the phone. I heard him groan then cleared his throat before he spoke onto the phone again.

"I'll see you later Noelle," the way he said my name made me squirm and to tell the truth I really couldn't wait for tonight.

I couldn't wait at all.
