“I won’t go for this Beatrice” she said.
“Come on Mira, it’s just a try out, there is nothing wrong in trying out” Beatrice tried to convince Mira.
Mira have been living with her best friend for a few month and haven’t gotten a job yet, after staying with her parent at Mexico she decided to come stay with Beatrice at new york so that she get a job and forward her education.
Mira gave Beatrice back her phone then curled herself on the bed.
“I’m not going to work in an hotel Beatrice” Mira complained.
Beatrice have been trying to convince her friend to work as an hotel receptionist but Mira refused, she felt that an hotel was a wild place for her.
Beatrice could see that her friend was not like her who was more exposed in the street, Beatrice was a model,she hardly stay in door unlike Mira.
“Mira don’t be naive, you’re just going to work as a receptionist not a bar girl” Beatrice said.
“It all the same, this hotel is not decent for a creature like me, you know me full well that I don’t like such places, so why are you forcing me?” Mira said angrily, Beatrice sighed “so what are you going to do now?are you going to sit in the house forever?”
Mira gazed at her wearily.
“You’re getting tried of me, don’t worry I’ll move out if you don’t want me here anymore” Mira said sadly, Beatrice gapes “come on babe,don’t say such word,I’m just trying to help”.
“You are not helping me, you’re making me feel worthless” Mira almost cried out Beatrice smiled and embraced her “alright I’m sorry,I won’t
force you to work in that hotel okey” Beatrice cooed while Mira nodded, Beatrice adjusted her gown then took her purse before leaving the apartment.
Silence fell immediately, she sat on the bed with her favorite pink laptop on her laps as she try to search out some job vacancy.
“She thinks I’m worthless, well I’ll prove it to her soon, I don’t have to work in a den before proving how hardworking I am” she said to herself silent. Her blue eyes scanned the list of job vacancy.
“Secretary… Nope…Cook never… Security this not for me …..babysitter”, she paused at the sight of babysitter ,she love children alot,the sight of them always give her joy,she let out a smile.
” yeah,I’ll go for this “she mutter.
Charles stir the wine slowly as he he stared st his sister angrily.
” I can’t believe what you just did without my consent Katie ” Charles said in a lower tone.
Katie did not mind the way he was starring at her because she had same silver eyes like him,they were both twins Charles was the oldest but they never came to conclusion of who is oldest, but still Katie give him respect and also admired his personalities.
“I’m sorry but I had no choice than to to it” she told him.
“She is my daughter, I have say over her….”
“Catherine is my niece, and there is nothing wrong if I care for her” Katie said.
Charles frown at her hardly as he kept his cup on the table.
“You went too far Katie, and I’m not liking it”.
“I went too far? I was alone trying to employ a nanny for Catherine” she said.
“And I didn’t ask you to” he almost yelled then look around the restaurant checking to see if people were starring at him.
“I don’t want a nanny for Catherine, she is fine with mum and dad and she is not complaining” he said.
“She is complaining Charles, she need her father, she want you,can you just do that for her?” Katie said looking straight into his eyes.
Charles sighed as he lean back on his chair, he do not need anyone to remind him that his daughter is yawning for his attention.
Katie rest her hand on his.
“I know you’re still grieving over Clara death but while you’re doing that Catherine is also suffering, she is still a little child who needs her father badly” she said in sympathy, Charles felt a bit guilty but the thought of another woman in his house makes him sick.
“I don’t want another woman in my house…”
“She is just going to be a Nanny and that’s all Charles don’t be clumsy” she said ,he glared at her for a while.
“I don’t think Catherine would want a nanny” he said Katie smiled.
“She already know about it and she agrees to it”
“She agreed to it?” He ask in surprise.
“Yes” she smirks,Charles frown at her.
“I don’t know what to do to you Katie” he mutter.
