Crina POV.
The ringing of my alarm signaled that I indeed have to wake up and get ready to go to work. Today is not any normal day in my life. It is a big day that I have been waiting for a long time. I have been offered a job in a college that has been my dream work place for a very long time.
I have applied in the same college for the last three years in vain until last week when I received an email that I had indeed been offered a job as a literature teacher, it is my dream come true.
I don't want to disappoint them. That is why I decided that I have to get to work on time. I get out of bed , say a brief prayer and then head into the bathroom for the shortest bath. It is a few minutes after 6:00am and I have to be at the college at exactly 7:00am.
I selected the black knee long dress from the wardrobe-i actually already decided that I will wear that last night with a green coat , it is my lucky coat. I want to leave behind the kind boring life and at least begin with wearing something stylish.
I then look at myself in the mirror at. My hair is combed carefully behind my back.
The last thing is…. applying a little lipstick and then, I am finally ready for my first day at work . There are a number of reasons why I am extremely happy that I have gotten this job . So many of them that you will know soon .
I get my already prepared bag to head downstairs . I have chosen that I will take my breakfast at work. I am bored here since my son recently out of the blue decided to move out, seriously. It took me by total surprise .
He has not yet got where to stay as he told me that he is staying with a friend .
Ohh,I think I need to first introduce myself briefly to know who I am. My name is Crina Newman aged 35years ...yes, I am indeed 35.
I have been single from the moment my husband left me with his baby from a failed relationship to a match younger girl.I still laugh whenever I recall that scernerio vividly. This life is not something easy at all.
I was depressed since I loved him so much with the help of my mother and got through it , may she rest in peace.
I raised my son who is 19 years old and in college. Life has never been easy for the two of us, mostly when it comes to the financial part. Any way we got through it and here we are. The good thing is that I know have a much financially stable job.
I think you have got a little that you need to know from me. You will know the rest later.
I get my car keys and head to my parked car in the garage heading to Standard college where I was just offered a job as a teacher of English language and Literature.
The college is just about twenty minutes away from my house. Thanks to the light traffic on the road. I manage to get to college just in time just like I had wanted it to be.
" Am so happy to see you Mrs Newman" the principal of the college welcomes you.
" Thank you so much, Mrs Mackenzie." I reply as I follow her into her office. I am so happy for this opportunity . You all just don't know what this opportunity means to me. My life has gone to an extra mile .
# Thanks so much for giving my books a try . I am trying to perfect with every book that I write.
