CHAPTER1:Rejection
Jenny's mother was rushed into the hospital and the doctor attended to her, And the doctor rushed out from the theater.
Doctor shouted out, “where is jenny?”.
Jenny stood up quickly and met the doctor and she said, Doctor , I'm here.
Doctor replied, Jenny, you know, I have been telling you all this while that your mom needs to do her surgery before the end of her cancer. Now her level is 50/50, and you need to take fast action about this surgery payment so we can start with the surgery okay.
Once Jenny heard her heart skip a beat thinking of where to see money for the surgery.
Jenny sat beside her mom and said to her mom, “ mom you know you are all i have please I don't want to lose you and i will try all my possible best to make you feel better.
Her sick mother answered with her low and sick voice, My daughter , I'm proud of you.
Jenny nodded in pain and felt like crying but she hid her feelings because of her mom's health. And she said mom you will be fine okay. She left the hospital and went straight to her uncle's house for help.
Jenny greeted her uncle and she explained her mom's situation to him. She explain that doctor said she should fast about the surgery payment else they will lose her mom
Uncle looked jenny with careless eye and he said, I don't have dam to give out,find your help to any other place
Jenny felt heartbroken and cried like a child because since her father had been missing Jenny and her mother had been abandoned by her father’s family and her father’s family took all Jenny property away from her. She went home to relax her head so she can think and know where to go for help.
When getting home she saw her friend (Amelia) waiting for her.
Jenny said to Amelia, “Amelia how are you doing”?
Amelia replied to her, Jenny I’m fine
But Jenny, I heard that your mom was rushed to the hospital.
Jenny replied, yes Amelia, she has been rushed to the hospital and the doctor said the level of her cancer is very critical and the doctor was demanding a huge amount of money for the surgery. And you know my token salary must be enough for the payment.
Amelia felt pity and said,I’m really sorry, you know. If I have , I will support you and you know I’m jobless. But did you know where to go for help?
Jenny replied, “ No I don't know where to go Amelia, I just want my mom to be fine.
Amelia said, your mom will be fine okay.
Jenny goes inside her room and Amelia takes her leave. Jenny starts thinking where to go for help and she realizes that she can go and meet her boss (Clinton) for help. But she was also thinking about the rumor around the office about how her boss was merciless and how he was so rude.
Early in the morning she dressed and first went to her mom's hospital before leaving for the office but while she was in the taxi she was thinking of how to confront his boss for the first time for help and thinking of what Clinton might say but she was so desperate to save her mom’s life.
Jenny rushed in and greeted her mom and said mom please be strong i'm going to find money to pay for your surgery okay.
Jenny’mom replied okay my daughter stay safe. And she rushed out from the hospital and called a taxi straight to the office. As she entered her office for signature and went straight to her boss' office , she met a Clinton assistant on her way inside the office.
Jenny said to the assistant please I’m here to see Clinton
The assistant replied you mean our CEO?.
Jenny said yes I'm here to see him for a very important thing.
The assistant said, "Have you called her before coming to his office?"
Jenny replied, “No, I said I want to see him for an important purpose, please.
Clinton discovered a noise near his office and he called his assistant. You know what is happening and the assistant explains everything to him and Clinton asks Jenny to come into his office.
Jenny entered the Clinton office and she was scared of what she was going to hear from her boss( Clinton).
Clinton said Jenny you said you want to see me, so what are you here for?
Jenny answered with a low voice, oh yeah boss, I want to see you for an important thing.
Clintion said you can go on with your word please. I don't have time. You need to be fast with what you want to say, okay.
Jenny's heart skips a beat but speaks out that please I need your help.
Clinton didn't let her say what help she needed, and he said okay Jenny, I can't help you with what you are here for okay. You can use your salary for whatever you want to do.
Jenny replied please let me talk and say what I need your help for.
Clinton said okay continue your story, I’m listening.
Jenny started crying and explaining the condition of her mom to Clinton, she said please my mom's health was very critical and if I can't fast about the payment, I might lose her. Please help me.
Clinton replied to her stop these crocodile tears, okay you know what with all your explanation, I’m sorry I can't help you out I’m a businessman. I can't just spend money anyhow on what is not good resources okay.
Jenny replied to him heartbrokenly I will pay you back, I will use my one year salary to pay you please.
Clinton replied to her Jenny i will get back to you Jenny.
