The next day, I went to that company. They asked me to wait for half an hour. I was waiting in the lobby. Checking my phone all the time anxiously. Suddenly neena messaged, " Is everything going well? "
I anxiously replied to her, " Noo, Neena I don't know why, but for the first time I am anxious. "
Neena laughed and said, " It is normal, for the first time you are giving an interview too. Even you never gave a practical in school too. So, it is normal. Take a deep breath and think positive and stop panicking. "
I took a deep breath and exhaled. Suddenly one of the employees came and said, " Are you Miss Evaka? "
I looked at him and said, "Yeah."
He said, " Sir is calling you for the interview. "
I stand from the chair and move towards the office I knocked on the HR office. They ask me to come and sit. They asked me about some topics and the work of data analysts, and I gave the interview. My interview goes fine. When I came out of the office they asked me to wait outside to make a decision. I said, "Sure."
After some time, they came and said, " You are selected. You can come office from tomorrow. "
After listening to this my anxiety changed into joy. Somehow, I controlled my emotions. I thought it was all my knowledge and communication skills. But it was Dad who helped me in getting a job. But I was completely unaware.
When I came back to the flat, Neena was waiting for me.
She gave me coffee and asked, " What happened? Did you get selected? "
I looked at her sideways and said, " What do you think? "
She said happily, "Of course you are. "
And we started dancing with joy.
I said, " Now, Dad will know that I can easily earn money. "
Neena said, " Oh yeah, let me make a call"
She goes onto the balcony to make a call, but I was able to listen to something like she is saying, " Yeah she is happy; and so on ." I thought it was her dad, from whom she was telling everything.
She came back, we talked and even had dinner together. She said she wanted to stay with me because she didn't want to live with her dad for some time.
I smiled and said, "Yeah you can, after all, you helped me a lot."
We slept. The next day she made me breakfast, I got ready early, took the breakfast and went to the office. I didn't want to be late on the first day.
When I reached to the office firstly I knocked on the manager's office, he showed me my table and asked my colleague 'Richard' to help me and to give me a tour of the department.
He started showing me the department, office and the cafeteria. He asked me, " So, miss what's your name? "
I said, " Evaka Gomez and yours"
He told me, " Rick Richard, my first name is Rick but still people call me Richard. So you can also call me Richard. "
I said, "Yeah, sure. "
I sat at the table where I was assigned. After working so long on the computer. I was so tired that I started yawning and started rotating my neck to feel relaxed.
Richard saw it put the cup of coffee on my table and went to his table. Firstly I looked at the cup and then the Richard.
Richard said, " It is for you take it, you'll feel fresh. "
I finished all the coffee and literally, I felt so good and fresh. In the evening when I was leaving the office for my flat. He ran to catch my walk and said, "At least give me your number, I'll inform you everything, and I am your colleague so you can trust me. "
I looked towards him and said, " Thank you for today's help but there is no need to inform me anything, now I am leaving. Once again thank you so much for your time. "
And I took a cab and went to the flat.
I knocked on the door. Neena opened the door and said, " Welcome ma'am. "
I threw my purse and said, " Please, can you give me a glass of water? "
She gave me the glass of water and asked in excitement, " So, how was your first day? "
I said, " Literally it was a hectic day, my eyes are burning because of working for so long on the computer. Oh, Jesus! I never thought it'd be so hard to work. "
She laughed and said sarcastically." Ma'am, it was your first day and look at yourself. This is how you are going to show your dad how to earn money. "
I exhaled tiredly and said, "Yeah, it was a hectic day but I am not going to give up so easily. "
I said again in excitement, " Hey do you know, there is a cute guy in our department. And he is my colleague so I can go to the office every day to see him. "
Neena said, " Ohhoo.. For the first time, evaka is calling someone cute. "
I said again in excitement, " And you know what he was asking for my number but I avoided him because I am a girl how can I give his number to him on my first day? "
Neena said, "Yeah - yeah, don't let the ego down. "
I said, " That's what I'm also saying. Let him try his best. But you know what I am already impressed. "
We both started dancing in joy. Neena said in excitement, " I think miss evaka is going to start her love life soon. "
Suddenly the phone rang. I checked on my phone and it was the notification. I checked the notification and it was " Rick Richard wants to follow you on Instagram."
