Location Sky Blossom city, Guild Association Mall, Auction house, 

"A-actually I am here to apologize to y-you! I am sorry! P-please forgive me!

 It's all my fault! I should have been clearer about my intentions in front of my uncle! Otherwise, you wouldn't be in this mess, it's my fault! Please forgive me! I will ask my uncle not to trouble you anymore."

"O-okay, who are you again?" Asked clueless Susan. A timid girl suddenly comes up to her and starts apologizing, Susan didn't understand a thing she said, what's her fault? Who is this uncle she speaks of? Susan had no idea what this girl was speaking about.

"Aa... I am Corey, the person who stole your permanent staff spot?!

 I didn't mean to! I just wanted to stand on my own two feet instead of relying on my family.

 But my overprotective uncle misunderstood when I said I wanted to start from the bottom.

I am sorry! My selfishness caused you all this trouble, please forgive me."

Hearing Corey, Susan finally knew what was going on? But she did not know what to say? She never been in or heard of or seen this kind of circumstances. 

What would you say? If you almost lost the job that you built using your blood and sweat for seven years to a misunderstanding! Speechless, right? 

"Even though I can't just overlook what happened but in some way, I am a little thankful for this 'misunderstanding' as this was the best thing that happened to me in a while now," said Susan looking towards me. This almost made me blush. 

"Uh? Really... I know no words of mine can make up for what you have been through but all I can do now is to own it and apologize to you, please forgive me."

"I can't forgive you but I do respect you for being upfront and not avoiding the responsibility. Don't worry about this anymore, in the end, everything worked out, this auction's success is the best proof."

"Thank you! Yes, the auction was a great success because you were awesome! I know this may sound like I am flattering you but you were great out there."

"It's not me but the cards, they were that good no one could resist their charm!"

"No, I have seen many auctions sell the same cards but they have never gained this much enthusiasm from the audience. 

 I think your magical show was the thing that induced enthusiasm in the audience."

Hearing Corey, Susan's face was apple red and was left without words once again. 

"I know this is a long shot but if you are recruiting staff, I would like to recommend myself."

"T-this... I am indeed recruiting staff, but why me? With your family connections, they should have things planned for you."

"Those are my family's plan, not mine, and I plan to have something of my own and I would love to work under you, as I think I can learn a lot from you. please consider it, I will not slack off and work harder than any other staff out there." Corey pleaded.

With frowned brows and serious eyes, Susan said" Okay, I will give you a chance but you will have to clear the interview like everyone else. I will notify you date and time later."

"Thank you! Thank you!" Corey thanked Susan excitedly.

"What a weird girl? You sure you want her as your staff? after all, her elders won't be happy when they hear this... Considering all that shit they did, it wouldn't be wrong if you want to have some fun." 

"Weird? I thought she was sincere and brave for coming all this way to apologize to me and do the right thing. I did not intend to accept her as my staff for revenge or something but because she reminded me of the time I started here as a sales representative.

 Everyone wanted to take me under their wing back then, but all of that was fake.. fake friends, conniving colleagues, office politics, betrayal, stealing clients etc. every day at work was like being on the battlefield. 

 I was constantly being taken advantage of or was betrayed, but I never stopped believing in people because of that I had been taken advantage of many times, more than I can count.

 I wasn't afraid of the betrayal but forgetting why I chose this path? And afraid of not being able to meet people like me, you know people who understood me, I mean people who I call friends, true friends. 

 I see that in Corey but her reasons are different from mine, I don't know what they are? But I just want to be a part of it."

Hearing Susan says all this cringe stuff, I was once again reminded of why I chose to be her friend. 

'Our way, not to change the world, but in order not to let the world change us.' 

Something I read somewhere. People worry and are afraid for wrong reasons and end up doing things or choosing something they didn't mean to. 

But then there are people like Susan who remember who they are? what do they want? What do they care about? What their priorities are? and what are the things they should be worried or afraid about? No matter how much hardship they are put under by the world. 

It's not about choosing the right choices it's all about knowing who you are? and what your priorities are! 

Some would argue that different people have different circumstances and don't have room for choice, to those people I would like to say that they are right but it's all about where their limit lies? Some cave easily and some break but never cave. 

How long they are willing to not stray from their path in search of shortcuts. This limit represents a person's will power.
