Alice: first day of work..

Alice went home frustrated and lying on her bed all day until 5pm in the afternoon, alice is staring on her computer looking like a dumb.. she is still waiting for the result of her presentation.. she didn't eat nor drink water at all, she was thinking that she is a failure and what about her dream? she work hard for it! but after all those things happened, she didn’t think of the result but all she was trying to remember was the face of the judge that makes her feel uneasy at the presentation. Alice keep on questioning herself “who he was?” and “I know I’ve seen that face before.” She keeps on thinking for him “where did I meet him?”.. but still she’s destructed by the result. And she was expecting nothing from that after all the humiliation..she is so frustrated that she wants to drink.

While at her bed, “uuggghhh! I must have answered the question! But what was I thinking! The jerk! He’s so arrogant! I hope I will never see him ever again! I’m done! Now what? I need to think of a way to pay my bills.” While in situation like that, she thinks of her parents that if they were still their cheering her up giving some advice for her. “But they’ll gone and I don’t know what happened to them”, in her mind.

She closed her eyes and trying to get rest, it was 10pm in the evening when alice received a message from her email: To ms. Alice Mondejar, Congratulation! You are now part of our company see you tomorrow morning at the A&C Corp.

Alice didn’t know what to do if she screams, laugh, cry for joy all she’s feeling right now is that she is so happy. It was 5am in the morning when alice prepare to wake up for her first day of work. She has a very big dream and this is the part of it. This was just the beginning and she wants her parents to be proud of her. She will make her dream come true and that dream was to go to Paris. She was so early that she merely forgot to eat.

At the canteen, she was so exhausted, because all she did was to do an errand. Photocopy some pictures, get a coffee, copy the non-so-ending files, all she wish was to draw a topographic house and be sited to a clean table with full of works, became one of the famous architect, but sadly why are the people are so cold to her? She feels uncomfortable and she thinks that she’s an outcast. “I’m so hungry! I haven’t eaten at all. “she looks on the foods and she didn’t noticed a girl who has wearing a mini skirt with two inch high hills , she is wearing a red lipstick which compromise her red blouse with black blazer compare to her she’s wearing a one inch black shoes with a very long dress that her whole lower body cannot be seen, a black blouse and blazer she easily gets cold that is why she’s always wearing a long dress, and while comparing she didn’t noticed anna and she say,”hey!, I’m anna, you new?”, alice “finally! Someone talk to me formally. Yes. Hi I’m alice nice to meet you anna.” And they shake their hands. Anna said, “Yeah! It was like that in my first day of work also but you can cope up when you last 3 months here.” Alice replied, “why? I think that people here are zombies because they only talk with you when they want something.” Anna rolled her eyes, “Yeah! Did you noticed it too? I’m only in two months here and every day that I encounter this people I think that I pitted on them. I’m from the department of general service, how about you?” alice replied,”I’m from design department” anna shout, “What?! Oh! Good luck dear”. Alice ask, “why?” while standing from a scock she returned to her sit and put her hand on her mouth like she has to whisper. “ Didn’t you know your chairman head? Mr. Justin Chua? “ alice while shaking her headis still confused on what’s happening. “Girl, please be courageous and strengthen your feet, hold on to your dream and I wish you good luck and best to your career. Because sir Justin is one of the very meticulous person in the history of A&C Corp.”

Alice was feel star struck when anna tells her that worst and worst of her boss and all she wanted to do now is work at peace. After that conversation alice didn’t eat so much, she was thinking to go back to her station and do her best work as a photocopier lady. And never ever commit a mistake. While pushing the button of the elevator the door open, alice didn’t noticed that she was not the only one in the elevator. The only thing was in her mind is that she mustn’t meet this Justin Chua. “Miss are you okay?” she awaken when a loud muscular voice asked her, “yeah! I’m good you work here?” the guy replied, “Yeah kind of, are you? Alice replied, “Yeah at the design department.” Then she turn around because the guy is at behind her, she can’t tell exactly the face of the guy for he was so tall that she look like she’s staring at the sky. The guy said, you seems unfamiliar, are you new here?” alice replied without looking at the guy. “yes” with a sad voice. “why you sound like you’re not happy?” , alice replied, “I just found out that our chairman head is so scary and arrogant and inhumane.” The guy then keeps in silent for a minute. And then the elevator stops. She was about to go outside when the guy said to her, “don’t judge a person that you barely know, be yourself.” Then the door closed. Alice was thinking, “Who was that guy?” then she walk away with feeling worried.
