Can I Love Again

Going For A Drive

I went out for a drive to clear my mind like always. I took out a cigarette and puffed till I got to my spot ,the place I always come for peace of mind far from trouble just me and myself. And like always I said a prayer to the big man up there

After a while I got back into my car to get back to my own house and on the way I decided to branch the bar for some shots and then I saw Anabelle Jones soaking herself in alcohol and crying,I had to look twice to be sure it's not just my eyes. I rushed up to her hoping to confirm why she will be here at dawn and then suddenly I heard her singing

"my life is over I didn't get the mail"she sang very horribly with tears all over her face still retaining her beauty

I got the busser to clear up those alcohol and get some iced water to get her sober

I poured some of the water on her face and gave her some to drink

"Are you ok?" I asked her hoping she wasn't so drunk

"Yes sir I am ok " she said while crying

"please is there an issue?"I asked

"yes.I have gone to Ellis Firm for an interview twice and I was promised an email within twenty four hours the second time and the first time it was given to an elite" she said

I felt a pang of pain in my heart. I was never aware of the first time I guess it's the betrayers work .

"don't you think it might be because it's the weekend that's why the email was delayed?" I asked her

"well that's true if I don't see an email on Monday I will go to another firm for an interview"she replied "thank you sir " she added

me knowing fully well she can't go home drunk like this. She couldn't even recognise me.

I made a call to my assistant to take care of her,pay the bills and also take her home. I waited till I saw my assistant Tony and gave him some instructions before leaving
