Desiree's POV
"I believe she is qualified for the position..."
Evon heaved a sigh of relief and grinned at me. As George glanced at me and asked, "Do you think so?" I bit my bottom lip.
"I mean, I believe that an applicant like her would be a good fit for the open position," I stated.
"Thanks, Desiree, for your honest critique," George grinned.
I bowed my head and exited his office.
Then Suddenly I remembered Evin, she was a lovely and sweet best friend of mine, she used to be my superhero because if I don't make my homework she do it for me, we are partner in crime, we used to go to shopping together and try different of bag trends and I just realized that material things dont matter at all when all I used to know was all fake and don't have any good intention to me.
I used to give her what I have, if I have this trend, she needs to have this also. My father is spoiling me with money and gifts before and little did I know she was just using me to get what she wants, I lend her a lot of money and when I no longer have the fame because my father lose the business, full of debts and also the money that my mom pay for my graduation was from her parents, they lend some money to my mom so that I can graduate. I never knew that it even existed.
Flash Back,
"I'm sorry Desiree, we can't let you in the group again, and also you are so poor now then how can you afford to eat in some restaurants? Our friends don't want any useless member of the group, so I'm sorry…you are on your own now.`` She said while pushing me away, I thought they could help me with my problem when I asked them for help for the hospitalization of my dad.
I just sobbed and cried. I don't know why but that was the biggest mistake of my life, I trusted them and it turned out that they were all fake.
End of flashback…
Then I saw the wall clock that it's already 3 pm, and my shift is over.
I entered my mini office and gathered all my things, then my phone just rang again, and this time it was my half-sister.
"Hi, what do you want?" I said as I answered the call.
"Hi sister, I think you need to be nicer to me…my mom told me that your new apartment is ready, I'm here already, it's nice, it's good and I hope you don't mind, I will bring all my friends here for a movie marathon." she said, I sighed and rolled my eyes, my heart was pounding for being disappointed with her again and again.
"What are you doing inside my apartment! It's not your apartment! It's mine, mine only!" I yelled at her through the phone.
"Well, don't worry, we are sisters so what's yours is mine!" She responded to me with a laugh and it's not nice to hear, I can hear some people yelling inside my house as they are having a marathon movie. What the f*ck is this? Why do I need to tolerate someone like her? It should stop now.
She is really making me angry and I told her, "You know what? We are not sisters! You are just the first daughter of my father! I never treat you as my sister! Never! So get out of my apartment before I finally lose my temper."
She chuckled bitterly and sighed, "Okay fine! This is all yours!" she said and hung up.
What a bastard woman, I swallowed my anger while taking my things and I took my ourse with me. I am excited to go now to see what my fully furnished new apartment looks like.
I knock at the door of my boss, I hear somebody is moaning inside and I just step back and say, "Probably he is with his girlfriend right now…" I pushed the button of the elevator and fixed my hair on the mirror, I stared at my reflection and by the way I looked stressed. Stressed with Alexander, stress with my sister and the come back of Evon in my life, my former best friend who used to be my crying pillow and now I no longer see her as a friend. She is just a friend who pretends to be my friend.
I saw Meredith outside of the building, she was waiting for a taxi so I approached her, she glanced at me with a sweet smile on her face. She is dressed in a yellow skirt, she is the type of girl who likes to wear colorful attire everyday.
"Who is that new girl?" Meredith said and whispered something to me that made me widen my eyes, "What? really?"
"Yes, I heard their conversion when I was about to knock on his door. It's so suspicious, and I don't know if Mister Scott agreed with her, but if you were a man and the woman offered me like that, would you decline?"
"Oh, I'm surprised…maybe." I told Meredith, she laughed at me. "God damn it! What kind of girl is she? Unbelievable." Meredith says, I just laughed, then a taxi stopped in front of us. "Let's go, Desiree." she said and offered me a shared taxi.
When the driver drove the car slowly, I fastened my seatbelt and stared at my phone. My sister sent me a photo of her throwing red wine on my white carpet.
I pursed my lips, she is the villain of my life, I don't know why she is doing this to me, she is such a bully.
Desiree turned her head to look at me and she frowned because she was concerned about what happened to my mad face right now, "Desiree, is everything alright?"
I shake my head, biting my lower lip because my sister is really testing my patience, "I don't think so, my sister is getting crazier again…" I said while shaking in anger.
"Oh, what happened?"
"She make this messy things…" I showed Meredith what happened to my whiet carpet. I told the driver to drive fast so that I can arrive at my apartment on time before my sister will be crazy and put some messy things in my apartment.
"I'm coming with you…" Meredith said.
I glance at her, "There's no need, Meredith, I can handle my sister…" I said and tried to call my sister, "What are you doing? Are you insane? Do you want to get stabbed and killed by me! Because of my anger now, I can kill someone like you!"
She chuckles, "Don't worry, your apartment is all yours, we are already outside…bye sister, Enjoy your dirty apartment!" she said.
Maybe next time I need to change my keys and scanner card so that she dont have any access to my home. This woman is really trespassing on my own property, she is such a full of hatred for herself that she wants to influence it to me also.
"I'm coming with you…" Meredith said and I just realized that it's so hard to trust someone right now, I just declined her offer and got out of the car and ran to my apartment. I saw the key on the door, this girl forgot to lock my apartment and to my shock, I saw how messy my apartment is.
All the trash is outside, and I think they've been here for the past few hours.
"Oh my god!" I said and I dialed the phone number of my father, "Dad, I don't want Patricia to be here again! I don't want to see her ugly duckling face on my property!"
"Hey, calm down, what happened?" My dad calms me because his voice is so calm.
I sent my dad a photo of what my sister did to my apartment,
His face in shock, "Don't worry, I am going to talk to her. What kind of sister will do this to your apartment?" he said in a disappointed voice.
My mom stared at the photo I sent, her face was shocked also. "Is that red wine on your white carpet? Oh my god, this is my fault because I gave her your keys, I thought it was not like this. I am sorry about this, Desiree…" My mom apologized to me and I sighed, "I don't know if I'm going to be okay after this, I am going to spend my money again to hire a housekeeper to help me clean with this mess…" I said while shaking my head in a frustrating mood, I rolled my eyes and sighed, "It's okay, mom and dad, goodbye as of now, don't worry about this but I'm sorry, I will not let that woman be inside in my apartment again…" I said and ended the call. I put my purse on the table and sighed, I opened my refrigerator, all my food there was gone, maybe some of the friends of my sister's friends took all my food.
This is not what I want, I was so excited to be here but the last thing I knew was that this kind of surprise was going to surprise me with a stressful mood.
Alexander called my phone again, I sighed when I saw his name on the screen again, he is making me frustrated. I don't want to talk to him after what he did to me. I know he wants to take what he wants. That's why he cornered me with my necklace so that I could say yes to his request.
"Hey, what do you want, again?"
"I'm outside of your apartment now, I'm carrying something…" he said and my mouth agape, I opened my window and saw him. He is carrying a tupperware in his hand. What is that? I walk outside and greet him with a grumpy expression on my face.
"Then , what is that?" I ask him while pointing the tupperware,
It's tupperware and I wonder how much that tupperware is, maybe equal to my minimum wage.
"Well, I'm bringing you my favorite food, my chief cook this for me but I dont have the interest to eat this food without you so let's get inside and eat…" he said and I stated at him when he rmarch inside of my house, "wow…" he said when he saw how messy my apartment is.
"Jesus! Your apartment is so messy, it's like you are having a party here by yourself!" he said.
"No, I'm not, my brat sister made this so that he can get revenge on me! She is such a brat! No manners! Spoiled brat! And no…Manners at all." I said as I repeated the word to describe my sister.
"Yeah I see that…where do you want to eat now?" he asked me as he placed the food on the table.
"Ofcourse, here. Where do you want to eat Mister Roberts?"
"You, I want to eat you…" he joked and I slap his chest so hard that he groaned in pain, "Yeah, I know that you are mad but don't do that again." he said and I chuckle softly, my stomach growl and I open the cabinet to take a two plates and two glasses.
"Do you use a fork and knife or a fork and spoon?" I ask him.
"Fork and knife, please." he said while smiling at me, our gaze met and I looked downward, "Please dont look at me like that, it makes me remember what happened earlier." I said and took a deep breath, I saw smirked and started to chew his food already. I sat opposite him, "So your sister is really a war freak?"
"Yeah, she is…she will not stop until she is satisfied that she already hurt me."
"Would you like to seek revenge on her?"
I blink my eyes and say, "Why not, so what's your plan?"
