Mary Jude POV

Finally monday came, my mum called to know how I’m faring, i went to the restaurant area of the hotel to eat breakfast, Soon i was in a taxi heading to LadyMay Universal Boutique, to say i was nervous was an understatement, a whole Doctor Mary Jude working as a cleaning in a boutique, i know you’ll think i was crazy or insane, don’t look it that way!

You know sometimes what we passed through made us do weird things to avoid finding ourselves in another dilemma.

I arrive at the boutique at exactly 7:45AM, i didn’t want to be late to create an impression of being a good staff (LOL, good staff indeed)

When i walked in, i saw a lady who wore a T-shirt with the encryption CLEANER, i excuss her .

Me: hey good morning, I’m Mary a new worker, She stare from my head to my foot then she ask .

Lady: i’m Abigail, You’re the newly employed worker in cleaning department?

Me: yeah! yeah!! i mean yes! She smiled then gesture me to follow her, which i did.

We took the elevator to the fifth floor and we walked to an office, she knocked twice before a female voice order us to come in, we walked in.

Abby: goodmorning ma!

Me: goodmorning ma.

Woman: morning, are you Mary Jude? i nodd before i reply her.

Me: yes ma,

Woman: okay i assign you to work at the children/kiddies section.

Me: okay ma, thanks ma.

We got to the door and Abigail made to open, she called my name.

Woman: Miss Mary! i turned to her.

Me: yes ma?

Woman: won’t you ask of the pay? i mean how you’ll be paid.

Me: i didn’t think of it.

Woman: I’ll pay you N15,000 for the start then increase it as time goes on,  i shrugged, since it wasn’t about the money but finding happiness with the right man so i agreed without hesitation, when we were out of her office Abigail whispered in my hear.

Abby: that’s bad, we are being paid N20,000.

Me: that is still manageable.

Abby: yeah sure it is, come let go to the cleaners quarters so you can change to the uniform.

Me: wait where is Joy?

Abby: in her cubicle i guess or maybe off duty.

Me: okay!
