I Know Sometimes It's Gonna Rain
She screamed. That was like all of a sudden.
"What did I do to deserved all this?"
She paused for a while and take a deep breathe.
I look at her but I didn't say a thing. I probably, just probably understands how does she feels. Maybe not to the extend that I would do the same but maybe if I hit the jackpot like she did, I'd be the first to jump.
A few moments before Kong was here beside her. I do not understand Cantonese but I think I did get a few part where he said;
"Why you keep on delaying this case? Just submit this one case and be gone with it. This case of yours is ruining my chances of getting enlisted for the London trip!".
It stunned me. I know we all at some point have to be honest but I didn't expect that it would come as straight forward as that. Bummer! I was like, how could he possibly say such things? I mean I do get the urgency of hitting the branch target but this? Ruining your chances to be on board the London trip? If I'm her, I'd be pissed. More pissed than anyone could ever imagine.
I kept my eyes firmly on the monitor. I was supposed to update some database but I can't help it but to hear all that. He didn't really raised his voice but then you can sense the frustrations in the tone of his ageing voice.
I turned my head to Nat. She didn't even look at me, paying full attention to her work. I was waiting for her to say something as I'm pretty much accustomed to the way she operate. She will always say something every time Kong came down to give a few encouraging words. Well, discouraging - that's more I like it.
After a few moments she stopped and said;
"I'm letting you know in advance"
I don't like that sound but I guess I kinda know what she is going to say.
"My last day with this bank would be on the 27Th"
That's it, I knew it! I knew she got that on her mind for God knows how long and finally now she said it.
"Good, you better because if not I'm gonna kick your ass out of this office"
She drew a smile, a big one.
On this occasion how I wish that I could do the same too. Given her situation, who would not? She's clearly not happy here. Not happy with lots of things - problems with colleagues, the boss and the whole institution is against her!
But I haven't get to the best part yet - She'd just secured RM2 million worth of deal in which will give her a commission in not less than Rm 250,000. That's like getting a RM 20,000 for a whole year without doing anything. Damn!
While she is on the happy side of writing a resignation letter, me on the other hand is hoping that I will get the chance to be back at home, to be near to my family and my dearest baby because I know at this very moment, they need me more than anything.
God will never leave you empty. He will replace everything you lost. If HE ask you to put something down, it is simply because HE wants you to pick something so much better
