Chapter 11

"hurry!" Mia rushed you out of your apartment

"I'm trying geez!" You ran out of the apartment, locking it.

"I was grabbing my résumé and some other important credentials" you reasoned as you showed her your bag

You both took a cab to Mia's apartment. Mia paid for the ride

"let's hurry or I'm going to be late and you'll loose your chance of ever getting a life" Mia ran to her apartment as you followed right behind her

"ouch! But true"

"try this on" Mia kept throwing different clothes at you while you looked at them carefully, unbothered about life

"too short"

"what about this?"

"uhk, the color's too bright" you waved the dress off

"CAN YOU JUST DECI-"

"what about that" you cut off Mina as eyes were everywhere on a particular dress and you noticed how Mia avoided bringing out when she got you the clothes, for unknown reasons. It showed boldness yet elegance.

"do you want to get fired when you haven't even been given the job!?" Mia looked at you like you had gone mad

"no I don't, why?" You looked innocently at Mia

Mia sighed taking a sit next to you on the bed "there was a time when I had worn this to work. When I was called to Mr Smith's, office to run an errand, this same dress I had on, had given me hell. All through the day I was shouted at and stressed with more tasks to do heck! I was given tasks that weren't even mine!.... I-it was as if bad luck and I had become competitors on whose luck is worse" Mia looked terrified

"there, there,..." You comforted her

"I'm still gonna wear it though" you mumbled as Mia sighed

"its your funeral" she shrugged, going to get the dress for you while you smiled happily
