Capítulo 35: Chapter 8: Part 5 - Ms Jun No!
I looked through the job description and it seemed pretty do-able. They didn't require accounting experience, just simple data entry as the cash register was accessible via an iPad and automatically updated through their internal system.
"You seem to be considering it so, I thought I'd bring you a pen" Ms Jun said, returning with an ink pen and placing it on the table.
I looked up and smiled "Thank you so much, I'll fill this in and submit it right away," I said and reached for the pen.
As I picked it up, Ms Jun's hand covered mine, and I felt a shiver run throughout my arm and body.
"Take you're time, I look forward to looking over your form," Ms Jun said, and for some reason, I started to wonder which "form" they were referring to.
"I-I'm a girl" I said stupidly "Are you-"
"I'm aware" Ms Jun said and ran her thumb across the back of my hand " I'm a girl too…that won't be a problem, will it?" Ms Jun said with a slight pause and leaned down so that our faces were inches apart "I'll be waiting" she added and straightened up, lingering for a bit, before walking away.
I waited a few minutes, and when I saw two customers get up and make their way to the door. I slowly pushed my stuff into my book bag and slipped out of the café after them.
I could feel my heart pounding in my chest. It had been a long time since I had been hit on in public like that, however, this was the most conflicting one yet. Not only was Ms Jun, really good-looking, she had offered me a job. A good-paying job that could potentially help me out of the situation that I was in.
However as I walked back to the apartment, I felt like it was not right. Was I not going to learn anything from my past mistakes? How many times did Chris have to listen to my crying after another bad break-up? I had already dated three bosses and two supervisors, and it always landed me in the same place – fired or quitting. To start a job knowing that this was the direction it was going in from the start, wasn't that just me falling back on my old habits?
I felt my heart growing heavier in my chest with every step I took back to the apartment. This was Chris' neighbourhood. If I got into a weird relationship with someone just down the road, wouldn't that make for two weird relationships within a 3-mile radius of Chris' house? If Chris didn't hate me already, she sure would now.
As I stood on the pavement, contemplating my life, it started to rain. I looked up as the rain soaked through my clothes, and I realised that I had been holding the job application in my hand. The paper buckled and crumpled as it began to get soaked.
Ah. I felt so....disappointed. I had thought, for a moment, that maybe, I was finally going to see the light at the end of the tunnel...I guess I was wrong.
