Claudia's [P.O.V] Loving Talon was one of the best things in my life. We built a marriage that bore lovely children too. But nothing is easy about taking care of my kids. "They're like their father." I said in my unconscious mind as I sighed tiredly running after those stubborn kids of mine. "Can you two stop making mummy run around the room?"I asked panting while they both giggled and stopped running too. "We are sorry mummy" both Lisa and Erica replied simultaneously. "Now come here and get dressed for school, you don't want to get late right?"I asked "No mummy, I don't want to get late but maybe this dummy here will want to"Lisa replied pointing at her twin brother who glared at her. I chuckled at their behaviour shaking my head. "Did you hear what she just called me mummy?"Erica asked glaring daggers at Lisa. "Aren't you a dummy?" She asked folding her arms. "If I am a dummy then you are a dullard"Erica replied sharply. I sighed waving my hands in the air, this t
Claudia's - [P.O.V]I entered into the big building with my jaw dropped. It's so large and beautiful, I wonder how many department they have here. Lots of gazes fell on me and I found it hard making a step, I was being very careful not to fall under their gazes. I walked up to the receptionist who was busy punching her laptop. "Good morning ma'am" I greeted. She raised her head giving me a look before smiling at me. "Good morning, how may I help you?" She asked"I am Claudia Sidney, I am here for the interview" "Oh, take the general elevator to the 5th floor, you will meet other applicants at the waiting room by your left" she said while I nodded. Seriously, I just feel scared about this interview. "Thank you ma'am" I smiled genuinely at her. "You can call me Pearl and good luck" I smiled heartily nodding my head scurrying to the elevator. I pressed the button to the 5th floor and in no time I was there. When I entered into the waiting room, I felt my hope of getting the j

Claudia's -[P.O.V]"Are you going to stand there and dramatise all day like a clown or listen to my instructions?"He asked icily. I will just have to endure everything, I will do anything not to loose this job. "Your work starts now" My jaw dropped, what? I only came for interview! But do I have to loose this job? I will just put a call across to Talon to pick my kids from school. He will be excited to hear the news too. "Y... Yes Sir" "Good, your office is opposite mine. My secretary will put you through on the work you have to do and your pay will be sent to your email before the ending of today""Half of your salary will be sent into your account after you settle in and make sure you are dedicated to your job." "I hate tardiness, if you come late to the office more than three times, you will be fired and I will make sure you never get a job anywhere with a pen order" W...what? I almost yelled out as u heard what he says.He will fire me and make sure I don't get a job any
Claudia's - [P.O.V]The conversation Continued.:That's like my best friend, I gotta go take care buttercup: He said.:Talon don't: I replied.He hung up before I could say anything else."Seriously! If only he knows what I'm facing on here, to secure my work here." I eye rolled dropping my phone, then I opened the laptop to go through the emails. Gracious Lord. 112 messages! How on Earth am I going to finish replying all this? I am so done for! I breathed out and got to work, I will reply some then complete the rest tomorrow. The first email was from Minnesota Industry. A meeting with Mr. Wilfred by Monday 12pm.I will have to go through his schedule to see if he will be free on Monday. I jolted out in fear as I heard the telephone ringing.Gosh! When will I stop being afraid of little things? I picked up the call. :Hello, this is J group of company. How may I help you?: I said waiting for a response.One of the reasons I decided to go for this job was go gain the experienc
Israel's - [P.O.V]I seethed my teeth in anger.My hands fisted in balls and my jaw tightened."I am sorry Sir, I promise to redo the report right away." Stephen, the head of publishing department said in fear."You are fired" I said menacingly."Please... Sir." He begged."Get the fúck out of my office before I change my mind and do something worse." I banged my desk in anger, with my veins filled with rage.The rage burning through me could bring out smoke from my body.He shrieked practically running out of my office.Idiot!He almost made me loose a lot of money, so incompetent! I hate that kind of workers.I turned back to the window to see Miss Sidney still standing with that guy.
Claudia's - [P.O.V]I picked up my bag staring at Mr. Wilfred."Please Sir, I...I need to go home. Permit me to go change please" I said to him.Even if that's not the main reason, it's one of them. I need to see my kids before they go to school.I have been giving them little attention since the past three days I started this job and I feel very guilty and bad about it.They aren't getting a father's love and their mother isn't spending enough time with them all because of my stupid ass boss."Sidney."The way my surname rolled out of his mouth, you will think he's the most innocent and kindest person in the world.I just couldn't roll my eyes at him.I tapped my feet on the floor without replying to him. There's no need, right?"I will give you five hours off"I groaned inwardly, what sort of boss is this? Can't he just give me a day off?
Claudia's - [P.O.V]I cleared my voice and it seems that brought him out from his dream land.He blinked his eyes and looked away."Enter into the car" he commanded entering into the car.Such a gentleman!He couldn't even open the door for me.But wait, am I really going to stay in this backseat with Mr. boss? Goodness! I am so done for.I nervously opened the door and sat down, it was just the middle seat that distanced us.I thought he was going to punish me by allowing me to take a cab to were the dinner was taking place.In other to avoid his gaze, I began looking through the window clutching my big handbag. It looks beautiful anyways.We stayed in a pregnant silent for almost an hour till we arrived at a restaurant downtown.
