Yes ma'am, the proposal you asked me to prepare for Intels company is ready. Sure; okay ma, she ended the call. Mrs. Audrey was out of town, she had some things to take care of so she left everything in Judy's hand. It's been two months already since she started working with the company and she has been very effective, working tirelessly to fasten the growth of the marketing department. Of course, she wanted to be promoted but that was not the main reason for her hard work, she was a hardworking and resilient woman. She was a goals getter. She searched through the files like she was looking for something, an important document. It was sent to Mrs. Audrey but she had to receive it because she was in the office. "Where did I keep the document"? She thought for a while, oh I kept it in the drawer. She reached out to it and brought out the document. "Thank goodness, I would have been in trouble if I did not find it" she murmured. THE NEXT MORNING Judy was doing some work on her computer when Mrs. Peters walked in. Good morning ma'am, she got up to greet her while trying to help carry her bag. "Hello love, how are you"? Mrs. Audrey responded while Judy helped take her bag and kept it on the table. How was the trip ma? Judy enquired. It went well, everything went well. Wow, great, Jusy replied. "Everywhere is so neat and well arranged, thanks for the good work", Mrs. Audrey appreciated her. Judy chuckled, thank you ma. You are very nice ma, I appreciate you. Oh, Judy, I appreciate you too. That reminds me, the boss wants to see you. " The boss"? Hope everything is fine ma? Sure; no problem and don't be scared, you've got no problems. O......kay ma, she stammered. Yes, you can go see him now. Judy had not seen Mr. Edwards since the last time they spoke; he was always busy and out of town. I wonder why he wants to see me, she murmured. Well, I haven't done anything wrong. She got to the door and knocked. Come in, she heard Mr. Edwards' voice. Good morning sir, she greeted. Hey Judy, how are you? Very well, sir, she replied. Take this, he handed her an envelope with a frown, and that scared Judy. I just hope this is not a sack letter, she thought. Mrs. Audrey has said a lot of good things about you; your dedication, teachability, hard work, diligence, just name it. "That is your appointment letter, so go get your things and move to the office close to me". The cleaner already worked on it, so it's clean. She quickly tore the envelope to see the content of the letter while her boss was still talking to her." "Congratulations Judy Gilbert, you have been officially employed as a marketing officer in our reputable establishment, we wish you the best". She didn't know whether to smile, cry or jump. Thank you so much sir, thank you, I do appreciate this. You deserve it Judy; saw how scared you were, he smiled. Now go get your things and move to your new office, he instructed. Yes sir, she hurriedly went to get her things. She rushed into the office excited, still holding the letter. "I see you have been given your letter of appointment"; congratulations girl, you deserve it. Thank you ma, thank you for everything. Come here; Mrs. Audrey hugged her, I am going to miss you so much here. Me too ma, but don't worry. I am still in the marketing department so you will see me often, she whispered. Mrs. Edwards asked me to move to the office close to his own, she said. Wow, great. Now, move your things. All the best darling. ********** "Miss Judy; please come to my office now", Mr. Edwards instructed. Okay sir, right away. She left what she was doing and went straight to her boss's office. It's been 6 months since Judy started working with the company and a lot had changed about her, she even had a boyfriend named Tommy. Tommy worked with a fruit-producing company and he was very handsome too. He was average in height, fair in complexion, and very hard-working but he did not love her as much. He had another girl Judy did not know about. Please work on these documents, you will be taking them to our new clients. What you tell them will determine if they will leave other companies for ours or not; you have a lot to do. Judy looked at him in surprise; she had never done this before but she believed nothing is impossible, she was determined to get the deal for her company. As she left; Mr. Edwards could not help but admire her, she was beautiful, intelligent, respectful, she was a complete woman. Edwards ' love life was a total mess, most ladies he met were after his wealth. The last relationship he had was with a lady called Jenny, she was the daughter of one of the affluent men in that state. Everything was going well until he caught her cheating; and when he confronted her, she complained about him not touching her. " I think you are gay", she screamed. She left him and ended the relationship. Edwards was pained because he had invested a lot into the relationship. He loved her dearly and was planning to propose before the whole saga, he was really hurt and could not go to work for days. Jenny was the fifth girl he dated, and after her, he decided not to date anyone again. But here he was, gradually falling for Judy. "I can't fall for her all I have been through with", he assured himself. Bye, sir, Judy said to Mr. Edwards at the company's car park while walking outside to meet her boyfriend who was waiting for her. His eyes followed her to see who she was going to meet. Tommy hugged his lover and gave her a deep kiss, then opened the door for her. Mr. Edwards saw that and got jealous. "Why am I feeling this way about her, she even has a boyfriend and so it won't work". I have to kill this sudden desire for Judy, I have to. Judy's lover took her to the restaurant to have a nice treat and then to her house. Thank you my love, she said as she came out of the car. Tommy pulled her back and kissed her, she returned the kiss. She laughed; " naughty boy, go home". Yes princess; good night baby, I love you, he screamed. She turned back and smiled. Judy met her parents in the sitting room watching a soap opera, they were so engrossed that they did not notice her presence. "Good evening love birds", she greeted her parents. Both parents smiled. " welcome Judy", Mr. Gilbert welcomed her. She sat close to her dad and relaxed her head on his shoulder. How are you my baby? her mum inquired. Fine mum, just tired. "Just go and freshen up; food will be served shortly" her mum advised. You are the best mum ever, She kissed her mum on her cheek and ran upstairs.
