when I fell in love - Season 1 - Episode 3

☆☆☆☆
I looked across and i saw a sign post which read “A room to let
N2000 Per month” i quickly went to inquire about the house.I met
the owner and paid for it sharp sharp.I moved in,though the
room was empty but i didn’t mind.I had N8000 left,if i purchase
my jamb form,i would be left with N500 but i have to find a way
to take my text books away from the house.I checked my wrist
watch and it was alread 7:18pm and no one would be at home by
that time.I quickly went home and took the key on the nail beside
the door.I packed all my books,clothes and shoes.I locked the
door and quickly boost my self before they found me there.Now i
have a room of my own and nobody to dictate to me on what to
do.I decided that i’ll go in search for a job tomorrow with my
SSCE certificate.I had good grades and i pray with God by my
side,i get a good job with good salary to help me to pursue my
studies.I checked my wrist watch and i was already 8:30pm.

I quickly ate the chips that remained with me.When i was done,i
bolted my room door at the back and spread a wrapper on the
floor.I lay down and kept using my eyes to inspect the room.I
would say that i am indeed lucky to get the room,it was really in
good shape.The windows and door was in good condition.

The window even had a net to prevent mosquitoes from coming in.

I kept on inspecting the room that i didn’t know when i fell asleep.

The rays from the sun shone on me.I rolled over my wrapper to
check the time on my wristwatch.It was already 9am. Jezz! i over
slept as a young guy.I quickly got up and rushed to the tap
outside.I begged a neighbor to borrow me her bucket in which
she did.I quickly had my bath,brushed my teeth.I quickly wore my shirt,a pair of trousers and my palm.I brought out the comb
in my back pocket and combed my hair.I unzipped my bag and
brought out a piece of paper,a pen and a brown envelop.I
construsted my letter and left spaces for the establishments
name,address and the post i am applying for.I quickly wrapped
the letter up in the envelope.I looked at my wristwatch and it was
already 9:45am.I left my room and locked the door with a piece of
paper.I embarked on my job search journey.I fixed my eyes on
every sign post i could see but i kept seeing sales girl wanted.I
decided to leave my vicinity and lo and behold,i finally saw a sign post on a complex.I quickly crossed the road and located the
establishment.

Donald: (entered) good morning ma!

Secretary: Good morning and how may i help you?

Donald: i saw a sign post outside saying you are in need of a
typist.

Secretary: oh that’s true! take your sit (While she was busy
making a phone call,i quickly filled in the remaining details in my
cv soon after a man came out of an office)

Man: So you are the one who wants to apply as a typist?

Donald: yes sir

Man: Can i have your Cv?
I handed it over to him and he scanned through it.

Man: hmmm what a brilliant result you’ve got.

Donald: Thank you sir

Man: But you haven’t worked as a typist before?

Donald: yes sir,this is my first attempt.

Man: i hope you are very fast at typing?

Donald: Doing my best sir

Man: that’s good,you are hired.

Donald: (happy) thank you sir.When are the opening and closing
hours?

Man: We open 8am and closes 7pm on monday through friday
but we open 9am and closes 6pm on saturdays.

Donald: okay sir but what is the salary like?

Man: for a start,it’s N15,000 per month and it’s because you are an
SSCE holder with no experience.

Donald: So when do i resume?

Man: (laughs) you’ve resumed already.You have s lot of typing to
do (looks at the secretary) give him those paper to type and show
him his office.

Secretary: okay sir.

She led me to a desk that has a computer and a comfortable sit.

She handed to documents over to me and i started typing.

I know you would be wondering how i became a typist,well a school friend thought me.
