Chapter 7 choose to be brave
The next day
The sunlight was already streaming through the curtain,landing on Leah's eyelids.she creased her brows and rolled on the bed as her eyes adjusted to the brightness of the sunshine pouring through.
She raised her hand and reach out for the alarm clock.she abruptly sat up on and look around the room.
she pinched her cheeks and soft ouch escape her mouth.it appeared that she wasn't dreaming.
That was right,she wasn't dreaming.as she remembered what happened last night.disbelief flooded her eyes,she still found it hard to believe; she lay back down on her bed with her arms spread wide as she tried to take it all in as her mind drifted back to the fighting scene.
he was not that perfect,he actually fell..... Leah said referring to Alex.
seeing how weak she was last night she said out in a bewildered whisper,"how can you go for revenge if you can't even protect yourself Leah"
I think it time to be brave,she said to herself.
she sprang up and out of the bed and come back with a laptop on her hand.
"Not everybody are going to be brave but i will chose to become one",she said in her mind.
She typed "TOP JOB VACANCY" on the screen which showed the search results within a seconds.
-National assembly guard
-Libray keeper
.......
National assembly guard she uttered to herself, thinking this is going to be the best job to fit in with her so called mission.
Though her father was also working at the national assembly back then but he was not a guard.
working there will even give me the opportunity to know more about the cause of my parents she said to herself,she knows that her parents death is somehow connected with her father's job..... before she clicked on it and a form was showed on the screen.
I think I have to apply for it online,she said before she filled the form with all her details.when she was done she carefully cross checked if she has putting in the right answers before she pressed the submit button.the screen pop up with a message,
"please submit your Gmail address so you can get update to know if you have be accept or reject for the job"
she quickly typed in her Gmail and got a message for the site "Thank you".
A smile curved up her face as she dashed to the bathroom to get ready for the day.when she was done,she fixed her bed before leaving her room with a huge smile on her face.
She descended the large staircase and looked around but the living room was empty.she walked to the kitchen to prepare her breakfast.once she finished her meal,which she devoured quickly.
she picked her phone,clicked on Google and typed. "HOW TO BECOME BRAVE"
"Bravery doesn't mean that you're never afraid- It mean that you're afraid,but you move forward anyway,even in the scariest moment.when you try to push emotions away,they often just becomes stronger.instead acknowledge that you feel the way you feel".
it seems these is not going to be easy... she murmured to herself.

Since the day was Sunday and it was still early.she quickly changed her clothe into a sport outfit,fixed her hair into a ponytail, picked up her sneakers as she dripped her leg into it and quickly tied the shoe lace and walked up to the standing mirror by the corner of her room.
Wow..... her mouth fell opened as she stared at herself in the mirror.she was shocked the moment she saw herself in the mirror.
