Beth POV
i can't believe the kind of nerve that that guy have . No one ever crosses my boundary unless when I let that happen. So he thought he would come me because he has a pretty face and just temper with me. That is not me. I can't allow that at all.
I can't believe that all the interviewees were amateurs. I would not even come up with at least one of them. I wonder how I am going to take part in the fashion week with no professional photographer.
As I am still in deep thoughts, my phone rings. I don't need to even pick up in order to know who is Calling me. That is mom.
I hesitate picking it up but I know how she can be . So I decide yo pick it up . I know if I don't pick it up then it is going to be some kind of tag of war for me.
“ Hello, mom. I am still busy in the office ” I answer.
" What a way to talk to your mom" that is my mother for you. You should never expect something good from her at all. Her mood us always off when it comes to speaking to me. Some times I wonder if at all she is my real mother or something.
“ Not really mom, I was just off. You know I have lot of pressure that I have at the company. Up to now, I have not yet got a professional photographer whom we will use in the fashion week which is just a few days ago. ” I go on to raise all my concerns to her.
“ Did you get a man finally " she asks me .
oh my goodness, this woman has a nerve. She has not even dared to talk about my problems of maybe giving me some advice since the managed this Company for long before they handed it to me.
“ But mom, we talked only this morning. At what time do you think I got a man. I am just busy with work right now " I answer trying so hard not to sound so angry since it is what I am Right now.
“ You have told you this over and over. if You don't do the needful I'm time. Then your dad and me will take immediate action " she says and with that she hangs up.
Damn it! Damn it ! I am so tired of every thing for sure. it is like taking over the business was a mistake.
I am just always under pressure. I wonder why women even in the 21st Century believe that a woman can it survive if she is beside a man. I refuse to allow such crap completely. I have made it to mom several times that I don't need a man for me to be happy but my mom Will never take that even when I tell her.
Unknowingly, I begin pacing up and down the whole office. it is like I am a bit possessed. Right now I have more problems than I can handle. Just then their is a knock on my door, Who would be coming into my office at this time of the day. it is evening and that means Madison is off .
” Who the hell -" I am cut short when the door slams open revealing some one that I least expected.
Some one that I just needed to see .
“ Oh , my Goodness Beth . Who has made you this furious ?” Juliana says as she gets into my office
“ I just didn't expect you " I answer as I give her a tight hug. “ I needed this hug” I say as I high her even tighter .
“ You are suffocating me, what is the matter ?” Julia says as we part from the hug both of us sitting on the couch that is in my office
“ I have so much pressure right now ” I say to her.
“ What do you mean ? I have always known you as the most powerful girl I know ” she says giving me her full attention.
“ It is my mom " I say.
“ Again!" she says surprised as she gets up from where she is sited moving towards the window. This is how she is always every time when she has something to tell me.
“ But you know what Beth, sometimes your mom is totally right . You need a boyfriend . Maybe he will help cool you from all the stress that you go through. At 2-"
“ okay, that is enough. " I interrupt. I know what she wants to say.
“ Truth Beth, you need to give it a try " She adds.
“ Okay, I get your concern but let us leave that topic. I think you have now joined my mom to torture me . ” I say wanting to change the topic
” So what is the other problem?" she asks me as she sits once again.
“ I have failed to get a photographer ” I tell her.
“ I am sure you criticised each of them .You need to change " she says.
” Oh God, what happened to you . You are not helping at all" I say shaking my head at her.
” Okay, I have a plan. I have some where that I am taking you. You need to cool down. it seems you have so much on your mind " she says as she stands up with an evil smirk on her lips. What does she have in stock for me. You know with her, you always have to expect anything.
