Chapter 4 - better days ahead

Some days later, my mum called to inform me that she would be travelling to charfristo to work, she promised to return and gave me some money and bought me a phone. The next day mum travelled... My grandmother on the other hand was very old and i had to take care of her and get her some medications, gradually all the money my mum gave me were all gone, i tried calling her but it wasnt connecting, gosh!! What was i going to do..... Then i was just 17 and i needed to get a job so that i could take care of grandma and pay my school fees.. At that point i was stranded and helpless. The next day i quickly took care of grandma and put her to bed then left home in search of a job because i needed it soo badly. I boarded a thight bus to chigan which was almost 4 miles from where i was living because that was a trading center where i could find a good job.when we got there i alighted from the bus and started to strolling around to find a vacancy anywhere.as i was walking down the road i bumped into a guy and his bag fell and we both bent down to pick it. He started staring into my eyes and i quickly stood up. "Ehmmm... Am soo sorry" I said "oh thats fine people make mistakes... You look beautiful anyway" He said smilling at me.. I started having goosebumps."oh yeah thanks... Ehm i gat to go am in a hurry"i lied and i walked away.
