Chapter 9 - the CEO

Good Day ma, are you here for the interview. Yes sir that what exactly am here for and I am really in need of this job please sir. No problem the job is in your hands so please let proceed with your interview, firstly what is your name?

Sir my name is blue. OK blue can I get your credentials? Sir I don't have any I stopped schooling after losing my both parent and ever since then I wasn't able to further my education but sir I promise you the best.I have worked in many organisation and I don't have any bad records as for the time I work with them.

Am sorry blue,but we don't employ undergraduate. Please next person? Sir please I really need this job( I went on my both knees and I begged the CEO to offer me the job but he insisted that things weren't done that way in his company, he asked me to leave his office.)

Please next person!! Sir please help me out.

Blue what is wrong why are you in tears? Brenda you won't understand I guess am just happy for nothing at first and I could have stayed at home and do something useful with myself instead of coming all the way down here just to be insulted. Sis is it my fault that I wasn't able to further if only mum and dad was alive I believe dad could have been able to send me to the university.(tears dropped out of blue eyes and she left in anger)

Blue please wait, you can't leave like that please let go in there and beg him I believe he can give you the job. No Sis I already did that I begged him but he wasn't listening he doesn't even want to listen if it was my fault or not for not being able to go to the university.

I forced blue into the CEO office since she wasn't ready to go in with me and when he saw us he asked what blue was doing here and he told us how he remembered asking blue to leave the premises. I was ashamed because if only I tried my best to provide for blue maybe she would have gone to the university and get a good paying job but never the less I told the CEO to please give blue a chance to work for the company for just weeks and if she wasn't able to meet up to their demands or strategies then maybe there can do what there wish to do but for him to denial her a chance of life just because of a university degree then it not an excuse enough. The CEO asked me if I wanted to teach him his job but I told him I wasn't trying to do that am just asking for a chance for my sister because I believe she can meet up with the company demand because she is smart and brilliant.

But yet he refused and gave us some minutes to leave his premises that was when I got feed up with his excuses and told him no matter how hard life is for them nobody can give a clear definition of tomorrow or maybe later and he should not always think of anyone as low as he did with my sister and with time she can get the best education she deserves but I believe my sister is still educated than him sitting in that position. He called the security and ask them to make sure we vacate his premises before he involve the police. I and blue left but I believe within me that blue would fell a little better after what I told the CEO.

Sister Brenda it wasn't nice how you speak with him but still yet thanks for having my back I really appreciate. Blue you are my sister and your pains are just as mine so what are sisters for I will always support you as long as I know you are right. Thanks sis.

Blue, I will so discipline your sister silver can you believe she is not back yet and this is almost 10pm how can I be protecting her while she is not protecting her self. Brenda please if you are tired I will advice you go to bed because I believe silver won't be coming home tonight she already told you but you made her insisted to come back and once again silver is not a child she knows what is right and wrong and she can also take care of her self so I will advice you stop worrying about her because of your health and that of my niece.

Blue you won't understand please stop being selfish and for once care for silver she is your younger sister and you should look out for her please. Sis have heard good night me I need to sleep because today is really not nice to me and am still felling the pains so I don't want to engage my self in silver drama. Blue you can go to bed and stop bordering me please am begging you!.

Brenda sat there and refuse going to bed she kept wondering if silver was fine and where she could have gone to at that time of the night. While she was bordered someone knocked at the door and was breathing so fast it was a girl and she was dressed dirty like someone engaged in a fight and at the same time she looked like someone being chased by the police I was confused so I let her in and she demanded for water but I refused and asked her what her name was but she kept shouting for water so I had to give her water she dranked it and demanded for another I gave her another glass of water and she told me her name was hope.
