"Marly marly... " I held my mom shouting from outside but i can't hear my voice replying to her, i still manage to hear my mind forcing to answer but i still can't have my tongue out. I closed my eyes to see if i can come up wih better courage but its like my mind has lost somewhere and suddenly paused in that place. Pulling back together, i tried to understand my situation and myself better;
"Hi am Marlene de stervo, marly in short. The second daughter of Agatha de stervo.. my sister wendy has been married to the old rich man two months ago in a far away city. I've closed my school" .Good i still remember all of these but i still don't understand what made me this numb and weak girl, one way or another, this isn't me... "Mirley, can you come down?? We got to pack all this things before we move out" I can hear my mom's voice telling me but i still can't move any part of me. And then something flashed my mind and i remembered that yesterday has been the last day of closing the funeral. Only a week ago my Dad passed away. I've been Dad's favourite daughter since i was born and now he was no more. Tears flowned as i remembered all the little lasting moments i had with him.. "I will miss you Dad" i wipped myself, set my first foot on the floar and i was out of the bed.
"Here. Have your breakfast before we go" my mom said as i stepped downstairs and she was putting together all the luggages. I sat on dining table, had my cup of tea and some desserts were waiting.. "Mom" I called her which had her jump on my voice. "Yes?? " she replied . "Is it really necessary for us to move out of this house.. you know i only know this place" I said out of my curiousity to see if there could be another option which i was sure there wasn't. "we have to go daughter. This is now a bank property and we can't afford to pay your father's loan now" she replied in sad tune but forcing to stay strong as she always did.
Everything were prepared when the cab arrived to pick us. We put our luggages in the cab and we had our way .
The house was not as big as the one we left behind and not as beautiful either. I pulled out my bags and everything else as i move inside the house and my momy followed
I knew the destiny was waiting although i didn't know whats that but something made me believe its where i have to be..
Dining with mom has been a silence moment since the beginning.. and this time we are staying together two, which i don't know the kind of conversation we will have to share..she's been like my opposite side.
"I wander where we will have to start this new life" she broke the silence with such a worried matter. "Momy" i had to play the elder daughter right now as i hold her hand. "Momy, it will surely come to pass when everything will be covered. Lets see where the destiny call us to be. " i comforted her.. "and... tomorrow i am going for a job application tomorrow. I already found a place looking for workers.. and i will run my chance there" i added to ensure that her hopes still stand.
After dinner, i had to do the dishes before having my way to bed. And finally i made my way in my room preparing my best outfit for the application. "Marly you still look beautiful" i would whisper onto myself everymoment i look in the mirror.. "who through you would come this far. But here you are.. strong and still beautiful" i cried as i remembered those words that my Dad used to say to me everytime he was home from the job. My Dad has been the most closest man i've ever know. I only knew his love .. now that he's gonne, i wonder who will have this role. All my life, the gates from outsiders has been closed but i think now its time i give it a shot. Am loosing nothing after all.
I went on to bed but couldn't sleep. I was a little bit scared for tomorrows agenda; BLUE ZONE GROUP LTD is one of the best group of companies in our country and DR STEWARD has been my father's role model which made me even more curious to get there . i slept but still felt unrest.
I woke up in rush to get there, put on my best outfit and run downstairs "Marly can't you take something before you go" I heard my momy shout from the kitchen. As i shut the door behind me and i was out.
The bus stopped and i move out.. staring at the big building in front of me with a big glassed bilboard.
"THE BLUE ZONE GROUP LTD"
I take a little deep breath; looking at every angle. "NOW MARLEY HERE WE GO. LETS GET THIS STARTED.....
