A week ago …
Mila was looking for job vacancies on various job applicant sites such as jobstreet , karir.com when suddenly her cell phone rang. Her best friend, Vega Indira, appeared on the cellphone screen.
"Yes, Ga?" Mila said the first time when she picked up a call from Vega.
"I heard you resigned. Is it real?" asked Vega, she answered like a firecracker, without hello or greeting.
"Yeah, how do you know? My mom, right?" asked Mila. It was impossible for anyone else to tell Vega, because only his mother knew about this.
So, Mila believes it was her mother who contacted Vega for help so she could get a job right away.
"Yup! Btw, why are you leaving your old job? Didn't you say you were comfortable there?" asked Vega curiously. Hearing that question, Mila just rolled her eyes lazily, she wasn't in a good mood to discuss it.
"Not important to discuss! Oh, yeah, Maybe any job vacancies in your company?
" Yesterday there, but I don't know for now. Let me check first! "
Mila did not answer, choosing to wait for her best friend to finish her activities.
" Well, here it is! But what about telemarketing jobs?"
"There are no other vacancies?"
"Wait, I'm looking for it!"
Mila had to wait for Vega to finish the activity again. Hopefully she gets some good news after this.
" Uh, there's more! And ... I think this suits you."
"Great! What is the job?"
Mila became more enthusiastic than before, because Vega said there might be a suitable job opening for her.
"Financial admin, just like your job at the previous company, right?"
"Yes, Dear!!" Mila let out a big smile. "Hmm, but… "
"But what?" Mila turned so nervous.
"The last vacancy due date is tomorrow, you need to apply quickly! I'll give you my company email address so you can send your curriculum vitae first! The first step is the administrative test. If you pass, you can do the next test. How?" explained Vega, giving directions to her friend.
Mila then sighed on the spot. "That's so complicated, huh?" she asked.
On the other side of the phone, Vega clicked his tongue. "Hello Mila! Have you forgotten what company I work for? OXA Group is the largest company in Indonesia with branch companies everywhere. Yes, it's very reasonable that just to apply for a job, it has been so difficult!"
"Alright, I'll prepare my application file first. Then I'll send an email later."
"Good! That's my friend! I'll send you the e-mail address via chat, okay? "
"Yeah! Thank you so much for helping me! I love you so so so so much anyway!"
" Hey! It's so cringey! Remember that whenever you need help, I'll definitely help you! "
"My best friend is the best!"
"Well, hurry up and prepare the application file or you'll forget it again. You're not going old yet, but you're senile! "
"Oh my gosh, that's right! Alright, bye bye Darling!"
"Good night, Baby!"
After that, the call from Vega ended, with Mila still laughing at her best friend's last reply.
Vega has everything that Mila never had. Starting from perfect beauty, extraordinary popularity, and also abundant wealth. But, unfortunately his brain is a bit problematic.
That joke which unfortunately made Mila laugh until she rolled over, was indeed as cheesy as her level of humor. Vega is so beautiful but a bit crazy.
Oops! You shouldn't report this to Vega, okay? If not, Mila will run out!
"My daughter looks really happy. What is it, honey? Try! Telling mommy, please!"
Mila's mother came from the kitchen, sitting beside Mila who was hanging out on the sofa in her living room.
Mila smiled, then drew closer to her mother. "Earlier, Mila finished the call with Vega, Mom. And she said there was a job vacancy at her company that was suitable for Mila."
"Wow, that's great, honey! Alright, now you prepare the necessary documents for a job application. Mom will prepare dinner first," said Daisy - Mila's mother -
"Okay, but you can't be too tired, can you? Because I don't want you're sick again."
Daisy smiled, then nodded. "Yes. I promise I won't get sick again. Mommy prays for you to be accepted, dear!"
"Of course! Thank you, Mom. Mila really loves you!" said Mila, hugging her mother once more.
"Mommy loves you too, Baby!" she said, hugging his daughter tighter.
After that, Mila immediately left her place to go to her room before ...
"Oh yeah, don't forget to wear the shoes that mom bought for you yesterday, okay?"
Mila wrinkled her forehead hearing her mother's words. "Those high heels?!"
"Of course, yes! If you don't wear high heels, what do you want to wear?"
"Does it really have to? What if Mila's foot gets scratched, or does Mila suddenly fall while walking? Mom, don't you feel sorry for this beautiful girl? It's been a long time since Mila hasn't worn high heels."
Mila deliberately took out her signature move, pursed her lips, and rolled her eyes cutely, so that her mother would obey her.
"Hey, I don't take rejection, honey! Anyway you have to wear it, to make it look more beautiful!"
"But, mom, please?"
Mila is still trying to beg.
"Or don't you want me to cook for you anymore?"
And Mila gave up when her mother threatened that. How can Mila live without eating her mother's food? Oh, she clearly can't!
"Yes, yes, for the best cuisine in the world. Mom is like that, is so savage to her own child!" mumbled Mila, walking to her room, stomping her feet. Making Daisy just laugh at the behavior of her only daughter.
Already to be 23 years old, but her behavior is still like a child.
O0O
After receiving a WhatsApp message from the HRD of OXA Group Company last night, Mila immediately prepared herself well to the second stage of the test which Vega said was an IQ test.
Wearing a white shirt and black pants wrapped by a blazer, Mila set out for her test.
And after arriving in front of the OXA Group building, her hands moved to tidy up her clothes and hair. Then excitedly, she stepped into the company building which looked magnificent from the outside.
After Mila entered the building, she was amazed by the interior design. Everything looks very majestic, beautiful and also classy.
Mila walked to the receptionist to exchange her ID card for a visitor ID card. Mila did it according to Vega's instructions that she received via her Whatsapp this morning.
Then she immediately went to the elevator to the 10th floor according to the directions from the receptionist she met earlier. And when Mila got out of the elevator, her eyes managed to widen when she saw the many job applicants who were dressed almost the same as her, black and white clothes.
Mila suddenly felt insecure because her educational background was only a high school graduate. However! She couldn't just give up.
For the sake of her mother, Mila is willing to do anything.
Ten minutes of waiting, Mila finally entered the test room with other job applicants. And after two hours of running time, Mila successfully completed the test. Even just an IQ test, that can drain all his energy today.
This company is really amazing!
"Mila!" Someone's greeting made Mila turn her head to the source of the voice. And she was surprised when she saw that person.
