A fresh start to the unknown
It's 2:45 pm, and I got a message to be interviewed two days later. Umm! Being shocked was an understatement because I applied through a stranger. Strangers can finally become great friends one day. I had mixed feelings towards the application, deep down I wasn't convinced and confident enough that I will be helped by some that doesn't even know me.
"Can I see your picture" she inquired, of course you can. I was being real by sending her what I look like, the next reply was I have sent your documents.
Confident enough, I muster a thank you to her, and await what the future holds. Days passed by and all I could say was, Hello! I haven't heard from the hospital, what is going on? I will get back to you sometime. Sure, she came back with feedback that is filled with disappointment and grooming face but never let that ruin my day.
Not yet, they are still holding on, any useful information I will communicate back to you.
Hope and faith was alife, to the things I can control, I can easily pass by, but things I can't control, I just hope. I held on to it,like a mother who held up to her unborn child.
At 2:45pm, I got a message for an interview. I didn't know how to express my joy and gratitude but of course I have to find a way. I got joy in chaos. I was very much thankful to the stranger who extended to help without asking for anything in return. So such people exist, a little wonder. " I thought to myself".
The ball was in my court, I either played it or allowed it to play me. But I couldn't allow it to play me, I thought for sure.
Fears and thoughts ran through my spine, I don't know anyone in this city, I don't even know the location and places around, where do I start? What ifs ran through my head.
I got my phone and asked questions to anyone who cared to listen but got no positive response. I was left with just me and my thoughts. Google was not an exception as I scanned through locations and paths to go through.
Packed my bags as I began my journey to the unknown waiting for how it unravels, hoping it unravels with good results. I couldn't hide my fears and uncomfortability but I'm sure I have to go through this journey. I don't know what the future holds but I hope I meet good people.
Cheers to a new beginning!
I'm glad you didn't let the what ifs deter you. You're on a new path now, a path you hoped for, water it and watch it bloom. You got this girl✨. I'm happy for you.
I little bit relieved!

I did fine, surely it turns out well.
