Christiana’s point of view Life is so funny. It is so funny how things change in a blink of an eye. One day you are shattered, one day you are winsome. This is life. You think nothing changes. But no, my friend, it changes. Albeit when you look back, everything is so contrasting. I was so nervous and helpless a few hours back. But things just changed. Life is so unpredictable. We do not know what is bestowed on us. Who knew, I will be applying for a job in NAIMIE’S BURBANK and end up getting recruited? Also, never did I think of encountering my childhood friend, Joseph after ages and that too at the same place where I had applied for a job. If I look back there are many such funny, strange though happening things that happened to me. For example: getting married to Tiger was next to impossible thing. But it happened. He happened to be my childhood crush and was nothing less than a mere stranger to me. But later I got hitched to him. Isn’t that crazy? It is so funny how things change
Christiana’s point of viewHearing a sorry from his mouth was nothing less than hallucination. It seemed like I misheard him. I could not believe my ears. How could a person who had been so rude and arrogant to me, apologize all of sudden? It was something out of the box for me.“I…” I stammered; I didn’t know what to say to him at the particular moment. “Oh, no! You do not need to be so.” He said to me.I could feel he was upset. There was something which was bothering him. I wanted to ask him what it was. But did not do so, as I had no right to question him. Also, I doubted he would have told me. So, preferred being shut.Soon, he stepped forward towards me whilst controlling his anger. I could feel his anger. He was clenching his teeth and fist very tightly.He looked very attractive, with his casual look, deep intense eyes full of emotions. I suppose he was pretending. He did not want to let his emotions overpower him. He suffixes a smile on his face later.Accidently he collided
I went around to relax. That Tiger had really got on my nerves. “Like has he got nuts?” I uttered. He took undue advantage of my situation. His deed was not to be appreciated, he succeeded in what he wanted and needed. “There is no way I am going to let this guy go so easily,” I muttered whilst rushing out of the mansion. Forgetting everything I entered a coffee shop and saw too many couples sitting together. The moment made me feel bad all the more. I yearned to cherish that very moment. Nevertheless, I sat there thinking for a while and ordered a cup of black coffee. It was quite cold outside but the anger within me made me feel hot inside. It was my fault, I knew. My heart skipped a bit thinking of the previous night. I should have known and expected something like that from Tiger. It was nothing that strange. But it still did hurt me. “I think billionaires are like that only,” I muttered. They are ruthless and all they know is to ruin innocent people’s lives. I wonder how did he
Christiana's point of view Today of all days I was going to enjoy, after all, I was going to visit my only brother and wanted to celebrate my only living bond. I hoped and prayed. I had no idea how much I have been waiting for that to happen. The whole day with Abraham! It has been over a couple of months since I saw my brother. The last few months I had spent on finding ways to visit him. I had applied an application through the lawyer in court to meet my brother. But a majority of times it got rejected. I wasn’t allowed to meet him during visitor time too. The ‘Burbank City Jail’ is quite strict when it comes to law and following protocols. After so many trials my application was accepted finally! Yes! I had been in the kitchen since 5 in the morning. I was baking a plum cake for Abraham. He was in prison for the rest of the years. I was sure he would love to have it. Plum cakes were his favourite. He would never say no to them. Well, Abraham wasn’t aware of my plans. I purposel
Tiger – my husband rushed to me with the plum cake – he rushed to the gates of the prison, taking the plum cake, fruits, waffles, and croissants which, I had bought for my brother and had forgotten in the car in hurry. I was outside the gates of ‘Burbank City Jail’. “Thank you,” I grabbed all of them from him whilst thanking him.I was to enter inside but, “Madam, please wait. You cannot take all of this inside. It is against our law and protocol.” The guards outside did not allow me to enter. My fear turned out to be true.“But…” I spoke softly.“Madam, I am sorry. But we cannot let you go inside.” The guard's jail obstructed my way. “Please let me sneak in, I am visiting my brother after months. Please, I will keep this in my mind while visiting the next time.” I pleaded before them while requesting at the same time.“No, we cannot. If you want to go inside with all this food, you need to get an application signed by the judge. Until and unless you do that, I cannot help you out.” O
Christiana’s point of viewOugh!“I am tired,” I mumbled. “I cannot wait any more,” I said to myself while rushing to the bus stop. Huh! Luckily, I did not have hard luck that time. I got the bus very easily. “Ah! I do not have to wait.” I sighed. “Huh!” I took a deep breath. After twenty minutes I arrived at the mansion. I was early than usual. I usually used to come by six in the evening, but that day was different.“Wow!”“You are back.” Miss Daisy said to me while welcoming me.“Yes, Miss Daisy,” I said to her while giving a warm hug to her. She caresses my hair as usual whilst leaving for her room. That feeling was special to me.The moment I stepped forward, I was shocked. Shocked – seeing Tiger. Tiger was at home. Why was he at home? It was just five in the evening. It was a little surprising. He usually used to be back by seven or eight in the evening. “Wait!” He commanded. I feared. “Has he got to know about the reality? Reality – about my job.” I mumbled. But changed my
Christiana’s point of view “You are sure you are alright?” Annoyed. He seemed quite annoyed. Know not why, but he was. Ough!“It doesn’t seem like.” I continued further. “Yeah, this is perfect. Despite being at fault, you are blaming me. Wow!” He replied. Clueless! I was clueless. Didn’t know what was going on in his mind. “Sorry, if you will not tell me what exactly it is. Then, how will I know?” “Well, fine. Okay, let me be specific and clear as you said before.”“Who was that guy with whom you were there at the bus stop while coming to the mansion?”“Guy!” I exclaimed. “Yes, guy. Tell me the truth. And mind you do not lie. I hate lies and liars. The guy with whom you were having a conversation was near the bus stop. Also, he was in his black Bentley.” He added further. I was dismayed hearing him. My heart catches in my throat whilst my hands flew to my chest. They were frozen in their place. Stomach twisted. “Umm… Well, I…” I could not speak further as he interrupted. “Yes, pl
I stole a glance from outside the glowing red sun while opening the windows and reached out to turn off the night lights in my room. My eyes travel in the room to see whether my dearest husband was there or not. Tiger wasn’t there in the room. He was already gone. I grinned and jumped out of bed. I went to the washroom and gazed at my face. Good enough. I ran to the basin brushed my teeth, took the shower, and got myself ready all in black. Black happened to be my favorite color. It had been more than a month since I had been hiding things from Tiger and others and going for a job that way. It meant it had been a month since I worked at the NAIMIE’S BURBANK. Also, Joseph and I had been working together under the same roof for a month. Ah! I felt lucky to share my workspace with my childhood friend. Well, for the last few weeks, I had been quite busy as usual. My eyes were red and there were dark circles under them. It was my starting days of job – things were quite hectic though exc
