The next morning, Katherine opened her eyes and noticed her sleeping position. She was covered with a sheet up to her neck.
" Good morning….mama" Little Sam kissed her cheeks.
Usually, she never woke up late in the mornings but last night she could not sleep with his memories.
" Sister...your boy grew up. When I opened my eyes, I saw him covering you with sheets. Such a caring son." Ruby smiled while ruffling his hair.
" Aunt...Ruby….Don't touch my hair. I feel so irritated if you do that…" Little Sam said angrily.
Ruby laughed and said, " Really.. ".
Katherine smiled at both and removed the cover from her body. Then she noticed Ardian's coat on her. She took and folded carefully. She walked towards the wardrobe and placed it secretly inside.
" Sister….I have to attend one interview in the morning at 11. " Ruby informed Katherine.
" But it is Saturday," Katherine asked her.
" I saw a newspaper Advertisement and applied for the post online. They sent me an email to attend at 11 this morning. " Ruby informed.
" Okay. All the best." Katherine wished her.
" Mommy...I am so hungry. Will you prepare breakfast? " Little Sam asked Katherine.
" Sure...Sam. Momma will prepare in a few minutes," she said and took him to the bathroom.
She brushed his teeth and bathed him. After that, she completed dressing him. Then she went to Martin's room and asked him to take care of Little Sam as she has to complete her morning chores and prepare Breakfast.
" Good morning, Uncle Martin…." Little Sam greeted him.

Katherine completed her chores and prepared bread sandwiches and orange juice for everyone. She served food on the table and informed everyone to join at the table.
Ruby hurriedly ate breakfast so that she would not be late for the interview.
" All the best...Ruby…" Martin wished her.
" Thank you, Handsome. Bye," she said and walked out of the house.
" Don't be nervous. Even if you didn't get the job in the interview. Be strong and take it as an experience for the next one" Katherine said to Ruby.
" I will be strong …" Ruby replied.
" Ruby has become responsible. Isn't it?" Martin asked Katherine.
" Yeah…My Little Ruby became responsible. '' Kathie said.
" I never thought you and Ruby would struggle in your lives. I am feeling guilty about myself. " Martin said in a sad tone.
" One day when your books are published and you get popular then you can take care of us. '' Katherine, her hand on his knuckles.
" I am bothered by your leg treatment. I could not save my income for your treatment. Katherine said l, lowering her head.
" I am happy that you people are fine. Don't worry about me, " Martin said.
" I don't know what good I did to have a best friend like you. " She cried, holding his hand.
" Shhh….calm down. Don't be emotional. " Martin patted her back.
" Kathie...is everything alright. You look indifferent from last night?" He asked her.
" Mamma...shall we play for some time?" Little Sam interrupted their conservation.
" Everything is fine…." She lied to him as she doesn't want him to know that She met Ardian and went to play with Sam.
Martin went to his room in his wheelchair and resumed his work. After playing for some time, Katherine made him sleep. Later she completely placed the dirty clothes for washing and went to prepare lunch for everyone.

Ruby went to Addison street to attend the interview with Maple Collaborations which is newly established in their city. She was so nervous as it was her first interview.
She stood in front of the company and noticed the tall building. As soon as she entered the company, she wondered to see the interiors of the company. The first floor was beautifully painted with the white and crimson red combination. Then she noticed a wall which was hanging with a huge metallic frame on which the number of branches of the company is displayed. She read about the company's achievements. She noticed that the company got many awards from the long four years after joining the young CEO. After knowing about the company profile, she wished to get a job in the company and learn more experience. She walked towards the help desk and informed her about the purpose of the visit.
" Interviews are going to start in thirty minutes. You have to go to the 26th floor." One young lady at the help desk informed her.
Ruby thanked her and waited for the elevator. Once it came she entered inside and pressed the 26th floor. One person on the floor announced that the candidate who came for the interview has to pass the written test then qualify for the next round of the interview. Everyone completed the test and waited for the result.
…..
After thirty minutes, the result was announced. Five candidates qualified for the next round and Ruby's name was in it. She felt so happy as it is the first time she is facing an interview and in her first attempt, she cleared the test. Then the remaining five candidates are sent to the Human resource department to take an interview.
In the HR round, three candidates are selected and there are only two vacancies in the company. The man who announced the interview process started sending the candidates to the young CEO for the final interview one by one.
For every candidate, the young CEO was taking one hour to finish the interview. On the other side, she was feeling hungry and her stomach was making noises. She walked towards the cafeteria and had a cup of coffee. Then she came back and sat on the chair.
As it was afternoon, Katherine made a call to ask when she would return home.
