“How could she do such a thing to me?” I weep bitterly.“This is just too much for me to endure. Why am I always unlucky? I chose not to react in the hall, even when the situation demanded it.” Mr. Charles was busy with his pen. He never showed concern.“Let me not accuse him yet until I meet him in the office.” I murmured.The meetings lasted for two hours, and the hall became dry.Thoughts were flying all around me. I won't let this chill. This is the height of it. I must file a complaint against Jessica. Her display of character goes beyond betrayal! She even went as far as formatting my system? I lamented. I felt like someone was piercing my chest with thorns. My heart bleeds. It burns beyond my endurance.“But how was she able to achieve all this?” I asked quietly. “I copied all the information into my flash drive. What actually happened?” The more these questions come up, the more I am drawn into pain and confusion.“I cannot take it!” I hollered in range and left the premises

“I'm glad you are back.” The doctor echoed. “You have to take it easy with yourself. You are one week pregnant!” The doctor spoke calmly with deep concern etched across his face.My eyes widened in shock as I stared at the doctor. It seemed he just echoed another patient's report.“Pregnant!” I repeated. My voice was barely above a whisper. “The nurse who left here not quite long ago only told me that I fainted. How come you are talking about pregnancy?” I asked. Looking at his face.“Yes, you are a week pregnant. The report shows it. You have to relax yourself.” He responded calmly.I tried to observe the doctor, to see if I could see a sign that this was all a cruel joke. But the expression he wore was serious and pathetic.“How is this possible?” I asked, still wrapped up in shock, staring directly into the doctor's face.“I'm not ready for this!” I cry bitterly. “Where did the pregnancy come from? Doctor, you have to check very well and rerun the test. I think there's a mix-up som

“As you can see, she is carrying my baby. I hope you are not jealous about it?” Miguel spoke harshly and sarcastically just to tear me apart.He bowed his head and kissed her protruding belly. Linda was putting on a blue gown. Which barely reveals the size of her protruding belly. “Jealous about what?” I asked angrily.Holding myself tight not to reveal the agony that flows through my mind. I can see they came prepared for this! If not for my pregnancy, hell would have been let loose here and now! But I had to stay calm.“Well, I blamed myself for not realizing your type of person earlier. Until I was hit with reality.” I winced.“Cold shoulder is all I am getting in return for my genuine love for you, Miguel.” Tears had threatened to escape my eyes. But I stayed strong. Even as I bleed deep down.“As for you, Linda, I will forever regret the very day we knew each other. And grew up as friends.” I echoed. “You will definitely embrace your comeuppance! And if it is possible, may yo

“Ohh my god!.. ohh my god!” I screamed excitedly. Wow! I hope this is not a dream?” I relaxed myself very well, took a deep breath. Then I picked up my phone again from where it had fallen off, and scanned through the screen repeatedly to ensure it wasn't all hallucinating. The words “congratulations, we are pleased to inform you that you've been selected for the position of a receptionist” became glaring like the midday sunlight.Tears of joy stream down my face as I let out a triumphant scream. As I keep reading it again and again, continuous, sensational tears keep flowing down the corners of my eyes.I jumped out of my bed, phone tightly clutched in my hand. I let out a little dance of victory around my room.All this while I have not checked to know the company that sent in the information.I now scrolled through again, lo and behold, it was the very company Jack had sent my credentials to two days ago.“Thank you, Jack. I thank you.” I scream excitedly. Even though Jack is

Revelation.One thing I have resolved is to put in my best in any company I find myself in. Prioritizing customers' comfort. And ensuring a good presentation of services.I was deep in thought as I walked majestically into the office with confidence enough to prove my willingness to commit wholeheartedly to my new job.I feel more at ease today, Monday, compared to last week when I got the job.I moved around, making sure everything is ok, ensuring everywhere is well arranged, kept and welcoming.As I finally took my seat, I got into the swing of things. Mastering the phone system, making an effort to familiarize myself with the company's mode of operation.“Good morning, Sofia,” a voice echoed through. I turned towards the entrance door, it's Molly, my colleague. We exchanged smiles. While she moved to take her position.The first call entered, I handled it like a professional. I felt so happy. I tackled other tasks, responding to emails. My supervisor walked in, giving me some feed
