I could'nt get the episode one,,pls bear with me. Few minutes later the other applicants walked into another door from the reception one after the other. Tina sat down praying within herself that she gets the job as she is the breadwinner of her small family, her ageing mother and two younger ones who are both in the university. Then it was her turn. She stood up and adjusted her Navy blue suit over a knee-length skirt and a white inner shirt. She stood up and marched in the way others had done. He open top shoe making sounds as it kisses the ground. “Oh Lord please be with me.” She said as she checked the map that was given to her to see the next line of action. She ascended the stairs and got into another reception on the third floor. Without much ado, she greeted the receptionists and stated her mission. “You are here for the interview right?” One of the ladies asked. “Yes ma.” Tina replied. The receptionist collected the first map that was given to her and handed her another one which shows every department on the third floor. “Good luck ma. My name is Rose.” She said. “Amen. I am Tina.” She replied smiling. Tina walked towards the door and greeted the second receptionist who only waved her hand. She got into the next hall and began to search for the personnel recruiting department which according to the map is in the laft wing. She entered into the department hall and met about ten workers busy with their systems. She didn’t bother to greet them, she pushed her way through until she got to a door with the inscription. ‘INTERVIEW COMMITTEE.” She pushed the door open after knocking for a few seconds and was asked to come in. She walked in to meet seven prying eyes staring at her. She didn’t allow that to disturb her, she walked into the hall properly. “Good morning Sirs and Mas.” she greeted the committee members numbering up to seven. They all looked comfortable and well to do. They are all in either their late fifties of mid fifties. “Young lady. How may we help you?” A woman who has a low cut asked. She seems to be in her late fifties. “Am here for the interview.” Tina replied. “Interview? In a committee cnference room? You are in a wrong room.” Another man in his early fifties said. “But according to the mad I was given, the committe room was marked as my next destination.” She argued. “You have to retrace your steps. Why don’t you follow the other applicants?” The low cut woman asked. “None of us knew the way around here. And I was directed by the receptionist to come here. I know she can’t mislead me.” Tina replied sternly. Then the head of the interview panel picked up his intercom and punched in some numbers. “She passed.” He said to whoever was on the line with him. “Congratulations. Go into the next hall. You’ll be told what to do.” The head of the panel said to her. She walked out of the room wondering what the man meant by the words ‘she passed.’ She kept her calm hoping that her curiousity would be solved when she gets to the next room. –to be continued– |

*****SHADOWS FROM THE PAST***** EPISODE 3 An hour later, Tina walked back into the reception on the third floor where she met Rose, the receptionist. She greeted the both of them and sat down on the chair she had sat when she got there an hour ago. She was given a magazine that tells the story of The Douglas Group of Company in particular the branch of the company that was located on the first three floors, THE CONSTRUCTION FIRM. She was flipping through the pages of the magazine marvelled at the success the company has recorded so far both internally and internationally. She was sipping a 1litre pack of an orange juice. Just then her phone beeped and bringing it out of her bag she discovered that she just got a mail message. She opened her mail account and saw the message headline from T.D.G.C, she expanded the massage and it reads; “Congratulations Miss Tina Roberts, you have successfully been appointed as the Assistant Valuation manager on every contract of the company. See the general accountant for more details.” she read to herself. She felt the urge to jump up seven times and roll on the ground to show her happiness but she composed herself and smiled. Immediately she started thinking of how she’ll spend her first salary. Something she is yet to discuss with the accountant. “Congratulations ma’am.” Rose said. “Thank You.” She replied hiding her suprise at how she knew about her appointment. “My name is Hadiza and you are Tina right?.” The other receptionist said from her desk. “Yes.” She replied as she thanked her stars at getting an appointment to work here. She can’t wait to start working. She started conversing with the two receptionists who were chatting with her without stopping their works. They didn’t take their eyes off the computer screen as they answered her questions with intelligence. Just then the intercom rang. Hadiza who seems to be Rose’s superior picked up the call. “Hello sir.” she said immediately she picked the call. “She’s here with us.” She replied the caller’s question. “Okay sir.” she replied and dropped the reciever. She raised her head up and smiled. “The accountant asked to see you.” Hadiza said and contiued whatever she was doing on her computer system. A few minutes later Tina was in the accountant general’s office. They discussed issues pertaining to her appointment including the payroll on which she’ll be placed and was told to resume the following monday leaving her with a week to make preparations. Her office was later shown to her including some important department on the floor. She met some of the staffs she’ll be working with and they recieved her warmly. She was asked to wait for the CEO but after waiting for about an hour without the CEO showing up, she left with the aim of meeting the man she has always seen give speeches at function on the tv. –to be continued– |

***SHADOWS FROM THE PAST*** Episode 4 .........On the day of her resumption Tina woke up very early even though she couldn’t sleep throughout the night. The excitement kept making her toss on the bed. She woke up and said her prayers before dashing into the bathroom which she shared with other tennants, she took her bath and ten minutes later she was rubbing herself with her body cream. She got dressed and sprayed a considerable amount of perfume on her body, she packed her hair to the back perfectly bringing out her beauty. Even though she had a light makeup she still looked stunning. She stood at the bus/stop waiting for a taxi to convey her to work dressed in a black suit and skirt and a sky blue shirt coupled with her matching open top shoe. Three minutes later she was on her way to her place of work, the cab driver was taking his time in manuovering bends and turns while he respected and waited at every showing of red on the traffic light and he moved when the light turns green. Tina looked tensed and anxious, she almost complained to the driver to ignore the traffice light but she dare not even though she has complained about the driver’s slow pace five times in the last ten minutes. “Madam take it easy na. The time is just 7:05am and no one will complain because of your lateness unless if he didn’t look at you face.” The driver said smiling. “And what’s on my face?” Tina asked keeping a straight face. “You are just too pretty. No one gets angry with a fine face.” the driver said laughing and other passengers joined him. Tina blushed and she kept quiet not knowing what to say. “You should say that to your wife.” Tina replied him. “I will marry you and I’ll carry you in my car everyday for free.” The driver said laughing as he pulled up in front of The Douglas group of companies. Tina alighted and paid her transport fare, the cab man took it from her and gave her her change. “I wonder how many wife you’ll marry if you are the richest man in town.” Tina said and hurriedly walked accross the grass lawns which led to the small gate. She looked back to see the cab driver backing out and turning unto the street. She smiled to herself. “Madam, good morning.” A security man greeted. “Good morning sir.” She replied. “You came earlier today.” he said. “Yes. You know its my first time and first impression they say….” She said and paused for him to complete it. “Last longer my sister.” The security man completed the adage as he opened the gate properly for her to walk in. She greeted the other security men on duty as they all bowed for her curtly. “Enjoy the rest of you day Mr Hassan.” Tina said as she walked away. “And you too ma but you’ll tell me how you got to know my name.” Hassan said as he proceeded to open the big gate for the car honking outside. Tina walked on and turned back. “Check the name tag on your chest.” Tina said as she disappeared behind the fleet of car in the parking lot. –to be continued tomorrow |
