"Wow!!!! beautiful. What a charming prince, so dashing.
Why I am so blessed!!!
He is coming towards me..... "
Fell to the floor.......
"*Oh Oh Oooo
Noooooooo.....No .... Don't...
Don't Go, my dear prince!
Plz, stay with me"...
Waking up*...
What the hell !!!??
Where I am!???
Where is my prince charming!???
Why my dream ends at the most important seen!??
Lisa was frustrated as her dream ended at an important scene.
"When will I be able to get my prince charming!??"
"Lisa!!!!!!!!! Mama has made breakfast. Come on! Darling!!"
Oh, Damn it. So it was also a dream. Why do my dreams seem to be so real?. Let's come to reality.
"Coming Mom".
Went to the kitchen. "What is in breakfast Mom!?? I am starving!!"
"Here is Bread and fried eggs for you. Here is your tea princess!", said mom.
"Thanks, Mom I love you more than your husband loves you", said Lisa. She is trying to have fun with her mother. Her mother looks at her with a smiling face.
"Where is Windy!??" said Lisa.
"Your brother has gone to school early morning. He has to prepare for weakly test ", mom replied.
"Oh so he is working hard to become a doctor", said Lisa.
"When are you going to apply for a new job? Lisa!"
"Mom I think I have applied for many jobs. Although pay is not very good transport is free", Lisa replied.
"Oh, well that's a good thing. Transport is free. So you don't have to go to the bus station." Mom sighs as if she is satisfied.
"Well, I have to go for an interview for the post of assistant to CEO. I don't think that I am capable but I still have to give it a try."
Lisa is thinking very deeply if only her father was with them she doesn't have to go to search for jobs at such young age. It was her 21st birthday a week ago.
Tears were in her eyes.
Her mother was working hard doing a small business of snacks near the house and Lisa had done many part-time jobs since school level. She wants to live freely without worrying about money. It was a blessing that they had their own small house with 3 bedrooms and a TV lounge. House has two floors and they put it on rent.
Lisa was getting ready for the interview. She wore a sky blue dress, black heels, and pink lipstick. With her golden hair on her shoulders, she was looking like a fairy.
"Aren't you gonna prepare something for the interview !!?" Her mother stopped her.
"Mom, I can't get the job of CEO's assistant," she replied.
"I am just going there to get the experience of how interviews are held in big companies", she replied with a smiley face.
Walking to the bus station...
Waiting at the bus stop...
After five minutes, the bus arrives.
She rode the bus and s usual, there was no empty seat on the bus. What bad luck!!!
She reached the company five minutes earlier.
As she just came to enjoy, instead of waiting in the waiting room she was wandering here and there...
She went to the big office, a man was talking on the phone,
"Kill that bastard immediately, He tried to mess with my business!!! I won't let him live another day", Hang up.
Lisa was shocked and trembling.
She tried to run away but she heard someone saying,
"Who's there!???"
"Hey! You!! I said stop right there", he yelled.
Lisa stopped at door.
She was shaking in fear.
"What will happen to me!??"
"Will I be able to go home today!??"
Lisa tried to rush outside upon hearing such a heavy voice but that man caught her and locked the door. She was looking down and his gaze was very sharp, Liza felt very uncomfortable but was enduring it.
She step back but couldn't run away because his personality was very fearful as well as serious. There was dead silence.
But then he break the silence, "did u hear me earlier!?"
"Hmmm!??".....
"What!??"...
Lisa was terrified but said, "I don't know what you are talking about!?"
His gaze became tenser, " So you don't know, but why are you roaming around my office?"
"Who allowed you to come here!??"
"Which department are you working in!?"
Lisa couldn't answer, "Aaaa...Mmmmm."
"I said which department!??"
"I don't work in any department" after holding her breath for so long, she replied.
"I came here for an interview, I am sorry but I was just, mmmm..... just looking like the office looked beautiful."
"You are a liar, how could they allow people who lie to be in the office", it was clear that she was lying.
"Who are you calling a Liar Mr!??
"I am the C.E.O of this company."
"I don't care who you are...e......". Lisa realised something.
"Mmmmm".
"No matter who you are how could you call me a liar!?? who gave you the right to insult others!???"
He raised his eyebrows as if he was asking her.
"I was not eavesdropping and I have to go now Mr C.E.O". Lisa gained her self confidence after hearing the word "Liar" from a stranger, she was a bit angry too.
"Rich bastard!!!!!!"
"Who are you calling bastard!?? Who gave you the right!??", he shout with anger.
Lisa also raised her eyebrows as he did earlier with a taunting smile.
"Get lost before I change my mind". He said, "And don't appear here again".
Before he completed his sentence, she rushed to the door quickly and shut the door with quite a force as if she was letting him know that she was angry or maybe she was trying to ease her anger.
Well who knows what was the real scenario, but she was angry indeed. Nobody has ever insulted her like that. Even if she was not rich but she was quite a social person and she was quite famous among students. Even teachers won't insult her even though she was naughty sometimes.
When she did a part-time job at a cafe near her house, the owner was quite respectful to her because she was a girl and they were neighbours.
She gave the interview quickly as if she was doing the formalities and went back home quickly. She didn't even bother to ask if they hired her or not. She was very terrified as well as annoyed by that C.E.O.
On the bus, sometimes she was cursed by that C.E.O and sometimes she was cursing herself for wandering around a big company without permission.
When she reached home her mother asked her if everything went well!??
She happily replied because she didn't want her mother to be sad just because of some rich bastard,
"Yes Ma'. But it's difficult for me to be selected as there were many highly qualified people at interviews with high grades and big universities.
Her mother said, " it's okay dear, but Miracles are possible. Right!?"
"hahaha, yes Ma'. Where is Waheed!???"
Her mood got better. But she didn't want this miracle to happen. She would never work where the boss has insulted her like that.
"Windy, my baby just came and now he is sleeping in his room. He had to go in the evening, they have some practical work. Don't make noise and wake him. He is quite tired."
"I know Ma', you are just being biased toward a brother. Do you think I will tease him." she complained to her mother making a pouted face.
" You always get jealous of your brother, right!?? I am not biased. I am not like other mothers. you should be grateful that I even iron your clothes when you are this big. Your brother iron his clothes and does his work himself. If only you were like him....."
Her mother's lecture started and she quickly sneaked to her room.
My mother is very sweet and soft sometimes but she acts like a teacher many times. If only she was a teacher, then I wouldn't have to hear her nagging all day. No, even if she was a teacher she would start her lecture before going to school and after coming from school.
"haa ....."
Lisa threw herself on the bed as if she was free falling. She was exhausted but one thing was for sure, she forgot about that C.E.O for a moment when she was with her mother.
This is the charm of family. They get all your attention and they make you forget about the evil outside.
..."Family should always come first."...
that's what she was thinking and she doesn't remember when she was in her deep dreams.
She woke up when her mother came to tell her that it was prayer time, she realised that she was sleeping and didn't even change her clothes.
She looked at her mother to get scolded but her mother didn't say anything. She was kind of worried that her mother didn't say anything.
She went to the bathroom and changed her clothes, got ready for prayer.
Her mother told her to come to the common room. She went straight to the common room as she noticed her mother had something important to say.
"G Ma'!?" (yes mom!?)
" Hmm, you know I am quite tired from all the work in the snack shop?"
Lisa nodded.
"I was thinking of calling some children from our village to come to help me."
"Ma' what are you saying!?, that is child labour."
"Lisa, I am not talking about child labour, that is needy people and their mother requested so that I can enrol them in a Government School. Their father is ignorant and so is their mother. But their mother is worried about their future. I know I won't let them work here but it is just an excuse so that their father could let them come here." Her mother explained.
" But Ma' you already know our situation, we are not that rich and they will need food, clothes, and shelter even if there is no fee for the school." she was worried.
"I know that dear, but there are many scholarships for needy students they can avail that. And as for shelter, they can live on the rooftop of our shop, I will clean it."
" Okay Ma', as you wish but it is a responsibility."
" I know darling, there are govt schools in the village but their father won't let them go there. Government Schools give free uniforms, bags, books and even monthly stipends to needy students. But their ignorant father wants them to earn as labour. So we have no choice but to say that we will hire them."
She looked at her mother who was getting old but was always thinking for others. Lisa tried to delete the numbers of people from their village many times but her mother has written them somewhere in her diary or maybe in memory....... She didn't want her mother to get worried because of others as they have had many worries since her father's death.
"What are you thinking so deeply??"
Lisa came to reality, " How many children do they have!??"
Her mother smiled as if she was satisfied with her daughter.
That smile was very precious to Lisa, she smiled as well. Now both of them went to the rooftop of their shop and started cleaning.
