‘I’ve prepared some clothes in the bathroom for you. Wish it brings you good luck. You have to leave after you freshen up’.
Chioma
nodded obediently as she turned towards the bathroom. At that moment, her phone
suddenly rang. It was Chisom.
Chioma pressed the answer button and said,’
Chisom…what’s up?’
‘Just want to wish you good luck… but I will be happier if you come and work with me,’ Chisom giggled.
‘Are you really wishing me good luck or bad luck?’ Chioma chuckled.
‘Come
on, I’m just teasing you.’ Chisom said with a smile. ‘I wish you the best.’
Chioma
smiled as she hung up. After she finished taking her bath she dressed up, then
went to the dining.
‘Really want to get a job,’ Chioma
said to Andrew who was eating breakfast.
Andrew
grinned and patted her arm. ‘Sit down and have a cup of Achara tea,’ he said.
Chioma
poured herself a cup of tea and topped up Andrew’s cup too. She took a giant
sip, thinking Andrew would wish her good luck but she was wrong.
‘You’re in love, right?’
Chioma almost spewed the tea in her
mouth when Andrew said that. She knew why he had asked that question. She
looked up at him; a rare smile appeared on her face and a hopeful look in Andrew’s
face. Between the two of them there was nothing more to say. Andrew understood
it all.
