I always had this feeling of pains that had continually kept me locked up in my small corner...

But I made sure this pain never overcame my confidence to stand out and be the girl I had always wanted to be.

I am neither from a wealthy family, nor a famous one, but rather I found myself with my mother....

We are not wealthy but i still can't say that we are not poor but we have enough to cater for us....

The mass describe us as the middle class.. meaning we were neither rich or poor...

Am twenty one years old, I just got out of college...

And I had the zeal to look for a job to help in assisting my mom...

Mom said not to bother but she knows well, what type of daughter she has. I was one to always follow my instincts and heart but never to falter once my mind is made up.

I woke up on a faithful day, it was a Tuesday the day I have earnestly been waiting for .....

It was the day of my job interview. I have been anxious of this day but I imployed myeelf to do my best and make it...

I woke up early and placed myself at my reading table as I put on my glasses.

It helps me to concentrate, I took my diary as I began to write down my schedule for the day....

This is how I live my life....all planned out...

As an economist I was taught this ... Planing.

After I was done writing in the diary ..... I closed it and put it back in my drawer..

Close to my bed.

It was time to get my lazy body to the bathroom " my interview is in the next two hours ..."

I reminded myself to hurry so as to not be caught up in traffic.

I ran into the bathroom and I had a quick bath.

I sat down in front of my dressing mirror as I took my body lotion and applied it in a hurry...

After which I took my comb out ....my hair was really messy, a typical birdnest ....

I had a good length of hair which falls right on my shoulder.

But still, I prefer to make it into a ponytail...I had a thick brown hair which goes along so well with my brown eyes.

I was done arranging my hair...and it was time to apply some makeup ...I apply a light makeup which made my face glow.

I took my purple flare gown and wore with my black glass heel.

Which made me look representable.

" Mom am going now " I shouted as I

Walk down the stairs to the door knob.

" Rachel come, won't you have breakfast with your mom first " my mom asked.

" Mom, am late for the interview I will call you later"I replied.

" Are you sure Rachel ....ok come back safe" she reluctantly replied.

" Yes mom I promise to be careful on the road... don't worry about me mom, I'm no longer a kid."

I said as I open the door and ran out....

" Good morning neighbors" I greeted our next neighbor .

" Morning Rachel " I heard her respond but I was in a hurry to have even a little conversation.

" Beep ....beep" I heard my phone vibrate.

I wonder who is calling right now.

I dipped me hand into my hand bag to fetch my phone.

It was Helen my best friend since college.

" Hello Helen " I said as I pick the call.

" Yes ... Rachel are you with Raymond right now" She asked.

About Raymond he was my boyfriend in college....we started dating after Raymond helped me out when I fell into a deep pit.

We had so many things in common that brought us closer.

But after college I noticed Raymond suddenly changed..he doesn't pick my calls again.

And he always come up with silly and flimsy excuses.

" Why are you asking Helen" I replied.

" Rachel are you suspecting me of being with your boyfriend, I can't believe this...."

" Helen I did not say that am just asking why you need him" I cut in.

" Ok I will let that slide ....I have some work to do with him." She answered.

" Ok but he is not with me ....you call him...let me send his contact to you " I told her...

" Ok that will be better "

" Ok bye I said as I ended the call"

Focus Rachel .... Helen is your best friend....I scolded myself

She won't stoop so low to the extent of having something to do with your boyfriend.

I keep using this word to comfort myself ....

Anytime I see Raymond and Helen together....

I always assumed it to be work related.....

I wiped my face with my hand as if I was wiping away the thought of Raymond breaking up with me.

I had the interview and I successfully convinced them of my ability as an economist.

I was given the job .....I was very excited.

I have to share this good news with Raymond, I told myself.

I dialed his number several times but all the dials were futile, he didn't pick the call.

Maybe he is busy.....work related

I tried Helen number but even her line was busy.

Well, I should go home and celebrate with mom instead.

I walked out of the building as I stood at the roadside to take a cab.

" Look out young lady!!...." I heard a deep manly voice shout....

I turned to check then I realized what he was warning me to leave the spot.

I tried run from that spot but alas, it was too late...

The car came at a high speed and I was knocked down.
