I feel shattered, sob in my throat is choking me, my knees felt weak .. I felt tears building up in my eyes, every thing is blur now.592Please respect copyright.PENANA3a8MD9ijNs
"How! ... how can can he do that? We have been together for 4 years ... and ... he dumped me.. just like that!"592Please respect copyright.PENANArjMrrKC9k7
My tears start to run down like stream. I was with him, in every thick and thin but he didn't care, he left me ... "COWARD ... BLOODY COWARD"592Please respect copyright.PENANA2icnZxjR76
Now I feel my sadness turning into anger. Everything we shared together, all feelings, every memory was a lie, "A BIG FUCKING LIE", tears keep running down, now I feel foolish, "how I trusted him." Another sob left my throat "He even lacks courage, to say this shit on my fucken face," 592Please respect copyright.PENANAf79wv9EnV3
I felt my inside burning. For an hour I kept thinking answers to my "why and how?". Then I got up, with grating teeth I said out loud, "If that's how this is."592Please respect copyright.PENANAneoCZPq5q3
592Please respect copyright.PENANAAosGvbbao4
592Please respect copyright.PENANA3mwnQ2juZY
Clara: You are such a wimp colin. You even lack courage to bring that shit up face to face.592Please respect copyright.PENANAVPtkCK02Hd
-Yeah we are over. Now fuck off! Never contact me again.592Please respect copyright.PENANAStzuAxmsPQ
........ Colin typing 592Please respect copyright.PENANA6HdsG80wvM
592Please respect copyright.PENANAvNSEQjZalA
592Please respect copyright.PENANAsN9NupGQCw
I notice him typing, and before he could come up with any further lame shit I quickly blocked him. After that I spent whole day and night in my apartment. My all confidence felt shattered. I don't wanna go out. I just don't wanna face any one.592Please respect copyright.PENANAwpf0M4oDxn
Lyla texted me to ask if I have any plans for tonight. But I dint reply her. After that she even called me twice, but I was so broken that I didn't answer. I just wanted to be alone.592Please respect copyright.PENANAWgm2DSUOLL
It was 7 pm, it's been 5 hours since we broke up! I was sitting in my gloomy state, when I heard knock on my door... Tap tap.. My heart started racing, is it Colin? May be he realised that he was wrong. I got up, still feeling weak after that trauma, "Who is it?" I called while dragging myself to the door. My voice sound strange even to my ears, after such long quiet hours. "Clara open the door!," I heard Lyla, with very less strength left in me I followed her order. Without another word Lyla push me n herself in with seriousness on her face and a brown Shoppingbag in her hand. "I heard that shit face broke up with you!" She asked with angry voice. "Yes!" I sigh, "how did you find out?" I asked with sad voice.592Please respect copyright.PENANADl6383RDGn
"When you decided not to answer my call, I called that asshole, and guess what he said to me!" Lyla looked at me with resentful expressions.592Please respect copyright.PENANAh5f71MaHH2
"What?" I asked, while trying to guess from her tone.592Please respect copyright.PENANAYrEWau58K0
"He said; 'Me and your friend are not together anymore, don't call me again' , with these brave words he hung up on me." Lyla repeated his words with sarcasm. Tears started to form in my eyes again, and heavily I let myself fall on sofa and took my face in my hands to prevent Lyla from looking at my crying face. "Oh no no baby! Don't cry," she immediately sat beside me n took me in her arms, "don't cry Clara, he doesn't worth it, it's good thing you finally saw his true self, that relation was just shit, don't cry for something so shitty," she then kneeled down in front of me and took my hand in hers to look me in the eye, " Clara, I warned you before, he was using you, I never liked that guy, I don't know why you were stuck to him, he was just using you for your body and what every you were earning." I saw sympathy in her eyes, "Why didn't you see it, he kept looping you with his sweet talk and gloomy scenarios, and you were so foolish not to see the truth, why Clara?" She looked at me with sad eyes.592Please respect copyright.PENANAHeZ68Gw2Tk
"I ... I never thought he was lying." I said with a sob coming out of my chest.592Please respect copyright.PENANAW4xRWBKsTd
"Oh Clara! Why are you still so naive?" She said while getting up to hug me again. After a minute of somber, "You know what!" She moved away, with new found energy and looked me in the eye, "I don't wanna see you cry for that asshole anymore, now get up, go and wash your face, till I put this tub in refrigerator and then will burn, trash and flush every memory, every gift of that shit face, we will completely erase him from your life. After that will do some girls night inn, with this ice cream tub and Netflix." I quietly turned around to follow her orders.592Please respect copyright.PENANAdYTUUqQEvN
Lyla and I have been best friends since senior school, as much she's beautiful, she has always been equally bold in her decisions, even she was the one who helped me to move out so I can get rid of my parents extra pampering behaviour.592Please respect copyright.PENANAKKXdsr14L0
After spending an hour burning, flushing and trashing every thing that Colin gave me, although there wasn't much, I am feeling better. I smiled to Lyla, "thanks Lyla," ; "Oh don't be silly," she replied with a shrug of her hand, "You would have done the same for me, although I'm less likely to get into mess like this ." She chucked and just like that after long mournful hours I giggled. "Finally! I get to see some smile on my friend's face, now it's time for some Netflix and ice-cream!" With these words she dragged me to the lounge, where we pursued our plans for night.592Please respect copyright.PENANAPcix3uVFkm

I woke up late today, my friend was already up, I can hear some music coming from outside. I lazily dragged myself to the source. Here's my friend in the kitchen, her blond hairs tied in topknot, wearing my cotton shorts and t-shirt, wiggling here bubble butt at the music and making pancakes. "Pancakes! Cool I'm famished," I exclaimed while sitting on the table. With my these words she placed last 2 pancakes on plate and returned with it to the table, "Yup! Pancakes ...", we started with our breakfast, "so what's your plans for today?" She asked.592Please respect copyright.PENANA78MXkEZ1ZD
Me: Nothing much.592Please respect copyright.PENANAXAcVFPWdPo
Lyla with irritated tone: huh! You are going to make me waste my Sunday too592Please respect copyright.PENANA5beiHTewIr
Me, while trying not to meet her eyes: Well! I was thinking... to look for new job592Please respect copyright.PENANAlR4Xobmx08
Lyla: "why?"592Please respect copyright.PENANAGfYwqMSyKQ
Me: "Well you know, Colin is also my colleague, though from different department, but that doesn't count." I reminded her with a shrug of my shoulder.592Please respect copyright.PENANAf7M0QXlus0
Lyla: yeah cool! Now you are running away.. and rolled her eyes.592Please respect copyright.PENANA3MVdnI178u
Me: don't look at it like that, anyways I have to bare him for a week, beside being EX, we are colleagues too ... remember?592Please respect copyright.PENANA6v2q0atlYA
Lyla with sigh: of course, how can I miss that part. Why bare him for a week?592Please respect copyright.PENANAghwwqKr5gd
Me: It's a rule at MATIRA, inform minimum a week earlier before resigning.592Please respect copyright.PENANAgwRp3RfxNY
Lyla: you sure about it? Your have been there for four years now.592Please respect copyright.PENANASjgg5oXvvm
Me: Yes I'm sure Lyla. 592Please respect copyright.PENANARQQWOklwl5
Lyla: Alright then, since you have decided, I'll help you with your job hunt.592Please respect copyright.PENANAIT18GLh46I

After two hours of searching online, we came across with a jobs offered by VANESSA that's absolutely according to my education, location and liking so I replied to them with my updated CV, I even applied for other jobs too that were not absolutely according to my desire, but anyways I sent them my resume too. "Now here comes the annoying part, waiting for response." Said Lyla while sipping her orange juice. "Cool then will wait," I replied with enthusiasm, and she rolled her eyes, "like you a have choice," and we both giggled like school girls at her remarks.592Please respect copyright.PENANAcNZ0BEqToj

Next day..592Please respect copyright.PENANAJGg1cYR3Gr
I entered my office building, detailed dressed then usual, to save my lost pride, with my resignation letter securely kept in my bag. I decided to submit it right when I get any response. Anyways I also have enough savings in my account, to live more then 6 months without a job, though I simply refuse to sit idol after such harsh breakup. I started with my usual duties, feeling relieved that Colin was out for marketing purpose. By midday, I heard a ping of mail in my phone. I quickly give it a glance, it was from VANESSA.592Please respect copyright.PENANAmnt2vgWI2E

Alright! I sigh with relieve, "now I think I can give my resignation letter, sooner I'll be out the better." With these words I moved to the direction of our boss's office. While preparing myself to deal with whatever will follow next, after my revelation.592Please respect copyright.PENANAiLxJYYvl18
592Please respect copyright.PENANAZrgSFYqNEv
592Please respect copyright.PENANAfbz2oFZQye
I got home at my usual timings. Situation was absolutely surreal in the office, nether my boss took my request nicely. He was really upset, he even asked me to change my mind quiet few times. But I simply need some change now. Lyla refused to leave my side, I knew she will be back anytime now. So I took opportunity to cook some meal for both of us. Soon I was done with food I heard door knock. As expected it was Lyla.592Please respect copyright.PENANARE8y9BRadV
"Hmm yum! What did you make, it smells so delicious." Lyla commented soon she entered the house.592Please respect copyright.PENANAHlFhwh5oGd
"Grilled vegetables and whole chicken, now and freshen up, I'm waiting for you at dining." I replied and she did as I commanded.592Please respect copyright.PENANAos5aatHwxS
592Please respect copyright.PENANAbonE1qBQrY
592Please respect copyright.PENANA4Y52FnvNyX

Lyla: So any did you submit your resignation?592Please respect copyright.PENANAjyr1eNMGQi
Me: Yup! Situation got super surreal.592Please respect copyright.PENANAhLuQLFL4Go
Lyla: I can imagine. Any interaction with that ass?592Please respect copyright.PENANADv7XEoacQE
Me: Nop! He was out for marketing purpose.592Please respect copyright.PENANAAqUhwlnnlf
Lyla: Relived to know that.592Please respect copyright.PENANAYnfAQsX9sH
Me: Hey! I got reply from Vanessa. They set up an online appointment on Sunday.592Please respect copyright.PENANAk5BCk9q1Ms
Lyla: online? Why online?592Please respect copyright.PENANABlYSJ4DJxq
Me: how would I know?592Please respect copyright.PENANAGxlUEwD1M1
Lyla: anyways good luck dear. I heard they have good reputation in New York. Their dresses are often classy, elegant, with little edgy statement designs. But they are not into fashion show and stuff.592Please respect copyright.PENANAxoXn7p1iKR
Me: Really! That's different. Hey let's go and check Vanessa's profile. 592Please respect copyright.PENANAnD7BeLdgLB
With these words I rushed to get my laptop and typed her full name "Vanessa Samar Jacob". A beautiful woman, with slight tan complexion appeared on my screen, when I moved to other pics,I noticed her pale skin in few images, her dark brown hairs are absolutely complimenting her plump lips, deep brown eyes and long but beautifully shaped nose. In majority of photo shoots she got almost no makeup on, yet her skin still look flawless, dressed in very elegant attired. After looking at her quiet few profile pictures Lyla commented; "Man as much I hate to say this, but I can't help, She's simply elegant and damn hot." But after going through her some interviews Lyla developed her opinion, "she sounds like a control freak, with very mind of her own to stay serene."592Please respect copyright.PENANAuC5jsbnXw9
Me: I perceive that too. Anyways, Let's not judge the book by its cover.592Please respect copyright.PENANAPAEv3BgPuS

592Please respect copyright.PENANA7078Hn6LSj
592Please respect copyright.PENANAG561Zuka4S
592Please respect copyright.PENANAMhzMDf3UGg
It is Sunday, my interview with Vanessa will be in half an hour. I am online waiting for time to pass. I even dropped a msg to inform them that I'm online. I choose to wear plain black collar shirt with 2 buttons casually left open. I even left my hairs open and simple tuck one side behind my ears. Well considering from her profile, I also decided to skip majority of makeup, just some mascara, pink gloss and coral blush too give some colour to my pale skin. I feel slight ping of nervousness in my guts, but relieved at the thought that from tomorrow, no more Colin. He tried to talk to me quiet few times but I refused to talk like royalty. He was even sorry and wanted to get together again, but I'm just done with his childish games. So I told him to get lost and mostly ignored him like he doesn't exist. Suddenly my laptop started ringing, 592Please respect copyright.PENANAQ9E9uyZwqu
Vanessa-CEO calling.....592Please respect copyright.PENANANoAGdc0TYU
I jumped at the sound and realised time flew so fast.592Please respect copyright.PENANA88VBOfe4iV
I accepted the call and screen open with beautiful Vanessa sitting in front of me, with few papers in her hands and her eyes on them. I notice slight wrinkles on her forehead as she was concentrating on matter. She was in white formal shirt with again no makeup, maybe just some blush, mascara and gloss like me. Then she suddenly realise I am on call. She raised her eyes to look at me with slight smile and paused...592Please respect copyright.PENANAwWeot1eW07
Her smile slowly fades away, wrinkles from reading, dint leave her forehead. It's like her breathing stopped, she kept staring at screen like she's in some kind of trances. After few seconds her lips parted and her chest slowly rise and drop showing her troubled breathing. 592Please respect copyright.PENANAbekZNbNQBu
I started to get nervous! I wasn't even sure if her screen is showing me or something else. After never ending 42 seconds of silence, I decided to break the ice. 592Please respect copyright.PENANADRznonDneN
Me : Ammmm Mrs Samar Jacob, can you see me?592Please respect copyright.PENANAS62riJpVfy
592Please respect copyright.PENANAdzuQHkaBw5
592Please respect copyright.PENANA27mmb4jAsz
With my question, she suddenly took her eyes off from screen and started to look down. It seems like she's trying to get her composure back. I got the impression that my simple words jolted her whole being and then she looked up again, slightly composed but with troubled eyes. Though her breathing is normal now, but I can hear some turmoil in her voice.592Please respect copyright.PENANAIMs8ekn9Hc
Vanessa: YES .. yes I can ... I can very well see and hear you. 592Please respect copyright.PENANAICx3lo92an
She breathed and continued with more controlled voice. "Please call me Vanessa," she smiled slightly then continued, "So Clara Liam, how are you?"592Please respect copyright.PENANADhPKscqZW9
Me: Good thank you and you?592Please respect copyright.PENANAgyzhN289xk
Vanessa : "I'm fine too thank you." She smiled and continued with her smooth voice, "I went through your profile. Your qualification and experience both are absolutely perfect for our requirement. So I am just little confused, if you enlighten us about the reason, why you wanna leave your previous job."592Please respect copyright.PENANAHXlr0SZdID
Me: Well I'm just looking for a place with little more serene environment then my previous work place. I noticed your brand is not big into fashion shows and other high stream occasions. So I found this scenario more suitable for me.592Please respect copyright.PENANAw9mNqrp1ll
I noticed she's again lost in her thoughts with her eyes fixed on screen. Then again she took a long breath to compose herself and continued, "very well, so Clara! earlier, I sent you a mail in which I clearly mentioned our proposal of salary, terms and conditions and your outlined goals, did you read them.592Please respect copyright.PENANAkabQuxgG4b
Me: yes! And so far they suit me well.592Please respect copyright.PENANArZcFwDCNo3
Vanessa : Good! So let's proceed onwards, I would like you to join from Tuesday, in between 2 to 2:30pm. You will be on your prohibition period for a month, then we shell provide you permanent appointment letter. You won't be able to leave the job for a year, after that when ever you wish to leave the job. You ev to inform us a month earlier.592Please respect copyright.PENANAeLWw3ESVbw
Me: Sure! I'll be their accordingly your provided timing. As for rest of terms, I'll keep them in mind.592Please respect copyright.PENANAFa4z6OYOid
592Please respect copyright.PENANAvEE74zN1cz
592Please respect copyright.PENANAualYpTHCwc
I smiled at her and tuck my loose hair strand back again behind my ear and just with that she seemed to stop again.592Please respect copyright.PENANAA5wDqDUMd1
592Please respect copyright.PENANAynZYzDSV5l
592Please respect copyright.PENANAQOAIlAh8Pd
With slight stutter in her voice she spoke her ending words.592Please respect copyright.PENANAsad4ODhLaP
Vanessa : Alright then, we'll see you on Tuesday. Have a nice day. Take care.592Please respect copyright.PENANA2qbofrSmnz
Me: you to take care.592Please respect copyright.PENANAAh5DaFhBhA
592Please respect copyright.PENANAupPBOOxFGI
592Please respect copyright.PENANAZ9g43sGo9I
She nodded and With these words she hung up.592Please respect copyright.PENANAtFfe4Vo6KI

Me: Hey Lyla my interview is done, I'll be on prohibition period for a month with Vanessa. Call back soon you get my msg.592Please respect copyright.PENANA1bvetMK1gX

VANESSA:-592Please respect copyright.PENANAbU3chgQwut
As the call ended, my head started to burst at realisation of what just happened. Mix feelings of annoyance, longing, confusion, anger, desire and many more started to take over me. It was like sensation, an ache to touch her, to feel her, to kiss her. I have no idea what's going on with me. It never happened before. I'm always so composed and controlled, how did I lose it? It's not like I ev never seen a beautiful girls . But this one, she's different, very different.592Please respect copyright.PENANAWWwcQ19NQx
