It was a busy Monday morning, the sky was clear, and no sign of rain was in sight. As it had rained cat and dog the previous week. Everyone was going about their business as it was the first day of the week, and the traffic was frustrating to those on their way to their respective offices. The case was not the same for Sofia Cortez as she was just laid off from her place of work.“Like I said we can’t keep you here anymore, I’m only letting you go without involving external forces because of the friendship I share with your father,” said Mrs. Bortlen the manager of Haute House Boutique.“No! You are only letting me go because the CCTV cameras here don’t function” Sofia fired back angrily pointing to the faulty cameras that stared blankly at her.“Sofia, don’t cause a scene here, take the letter and leave, please,” Mrs. Bortlen said softly as she picked up the letter from her desk and handed it to Sofia.“Sofia, let’s leave, There’s nothing you can do, their minds are made up,” Camill

Supporting her dad was her main goal, but due to the system of the country, she found it difficult to accomplish that goal.She was still sorting out her clothes when she heard a voice call out her name.“Sophy!” the voice called out again.She quickly abandoned the clothes she was sorting to go check who was calling out her name, she opened the door and it was her boyfriend James.She was not surprised, she knew he was the only one who called her “Sophy” but she was surprised to see him again at her house.She opened the door and she let him into the living room.“James what are you doing here?” she queried.“Are you not happy to see me?”“Not even a hug?” he asked with open arms.“James I’ve not seen you for the past one week, no calls, no texts and you show up at my house and you are demanding a hug?”“No baby! I went on a business trip” James said as he pulled her over to him and kissed her passionately.James made efforts to unbuckle his shorts as he kissed her passionately, Sofi

Sofia received an email from Camila the next day, it was a job opening a club was looking for the services of a waitress and Camila sent her the link and job description. Sofia thought hard about it but she didn’t like the fact that she was going to be in contact with people again but she thought of a job that she could do that doesn’t involve coming in contact with people and she found it difficult to picture one.Sofia sent out her resume and waited for their response as they indicated they would stop taking applications as from the next day.Sofia hoped that the job would be given to her, the clubhouse was the best in the whole of Pachuca. And it was mostly graced by the rich, it was very difficult to get a pass at the club it took connections for someone to club there or work there.But Sofia was lucky that Camila had spoken to a few of her friends who knew the manager there. Sofia just had to talk with her father and know what he had to say about her working as a waitress in a c

“Who are you and what do you want?” she asked as she looked at them from head to toe, she blew a puff of smoke at their faces.“Is Mike in? we want to see Mike” Sofia asked coughing.“Depends on who is asking” she responded.“Babe, who is there?” a voice of a man from the inside asked.“I don’t know, they won’t say” the young girl replied still staring at them.“You must be Sofia right?” the young man asked as beckoned on them to come in.Sofia and Camilla followed him closely behind and as they entered the room it was filled with smoke, the windows were closed, and the room lacked air as it was not well-ventilated. There was a stench smell coming from the room, Camilla noticed the smell was from the rug, it was damp, and she had to use her palm to cover her nose.“You can sit,” Mike said.“No we'd rather stand” Camilla responded looking at Sophia hoping she'll agree with her.“Yeah we will stand, we are actually in a hurry and it took a while before we could find your address,” Sofi

It was a sunny day and Sophia thought it was a good day to do the laundry and clean up the house. Her father decided to stay at home as his back still aches, Sophia declined his requests of helping out in cleaning the house, and she insisted he rested as she did the work around the house.David Cortez marveled at the way his daughter went about her tasks, it reminded him of his wife Emma, she was a very hardworking woman and one of her favorite hobbies was cleaning. The first time he took her to see his parents they were delighted to see her and asked her to stay over, she knew the right words to use when she talked and she was very well articulated when she spoke. She was the only thing he had lost in his life and he is going to make sure he doesn’t lose his daughter too.“Pa are you okay?” Sophia asked interrupting his thoughts.“Yes I’m good”“You seem to be lost in thoughts” “Yes, I was thinking about going to your mother’s tomb, been a while, we can go clean it up since we are
