Chapter 7 Job hunt

Dunn was seen trying to strap her waist belt but it kept removing, causing a slap on her tummy.

" Why today of all days? " Dunn groaned frustrated, She removed the waist belt hook angrily and threw it on the bed.

" It's past eight and I'm supposed to get there before the boss," She screamed, realizing her lateness.

She decided to settle for a pair of corporate grey jeans, " What the hell are you still doing at home by this time?! Are you not supposed to be seated at the reception? Laura entered with a towel in her hand.

" I can't find any dress so I settled for a pair of jeans and now I can't find a top to wear on them" She mouthed, turning her eyes around the room.

Laura was just mute, She went to Dunn's closet after climbing heaps of cloth. " With all the clothes here, You still can't find a suitable top for your jeans?" Laura asked, opening the closet, she threw three different tops at Dunn with a frown.

" Can you please help me pick a pretty top, I need to look presentable to a clothing store interview?" Dunn begged, looking at her wristwatch restlessness.

Laura pulled down all the clothes in the front closet, She turned to Dunn with a frown " You should try this out" She threw a sky-blue long-sleeve shirt at her.

Dunn picked up the shirt and tried it on, " Wow, it fits me perfectly" Dunn smirked.

" It's almost 9 and you are still here looking at yourself, You love being jobless right?" Laura screamed at Dunn before hitting her with a flat corporate black shoe.

" oh my gosh, I have to go" Dunn rushed out, not bothering to wear the shoe correctly, with a fitting black bag hanging on her right shoulder.

" You should have woken up earlier" Laura smiled at her friend before going back in to prepare for office.

*************

" I don't have money for a cab" Dunn waved off the cab and stopped to carry her.

" You don't look poor though" The cab man drove off leaving Dunn to think about what he just said.

Dunn processed what the cab man said, again and again, She raised her head in shock.

" Who the hell does he think he is?" She clicked her tongue angrily before running off to the Rizma Clothing store.

In the next ten minutes, she met herself standing in front of the store trying to catch her breath.

Opening the entrance door, eyes fell on her causing her to move uncomfortably. The clothing store was much bigger than she thought.

The clothing store looked like a company as she thought.

" Excuse me, ma'am, What do you want to buy?" A blonde lady with a staff tag queried with a smile.

" Oh sorry, I'm not here to buy something, I came for a job interview" Dunn returned the smile heartily.

The lady's mouth curved into a smile before releasing a laugh, Dunn wondered what was so funny.

" You mean you are here for a job interview at this time? Even if you want to apply as a cleaner, You should have been here before everyone" The lady laughed again as she walked away to attend to other customers.

Dunn looked at the lady till she was out of sight, " I wonder why they employed a bird, with her tiny shoulder" Dunn hissed and walked towards a room with the name ' Reception ' molded at the entrance.

She entered the room and went straight to the receptionist. She didn't bother looking back at the people in the reception.

" I'm Dunn Edwards, I'm here for a job interview" She showed the receptionist her credentials. The receptionist was just looking at her like, is there something wrong with her?

" I'm sorry but the cleaner's spot is full now, You can drop your contact so I can try to get back at you when we need more cleaners" The receptionist with a smile pushed the credentials back to Dunn.

Dunn wonders why she has been hearing the word cleaner since she entered the store. " What do you mean by cleaner? I came for a job interview for the post of......

The receptionist didn't let her finish her statement as she rushed down to the entrance " Welcome Sir" She bowed with a flirty smile.

Dunn looked at her disgustingly before dilating her eyes to the handsome young man carrying a grey suitcase. She guessed he was the Boss, The one to interview her and the rest.

The handsome boss's eyes were glued on her till he went out of sight, she noticed a frown on the receptionist's face.

" You should sit down and wait for your turn" With a tone of jealousy, the receptionist went back to her seat. Dunn shrugged off the jealous tone and went to take a seat.

One hour to that time, Job hunters were still going in and out of the interview room with either a frown, a smile, or an irritated look.

" Dunn Edwards, You can held towards the interview room now" A lady came out from the interview room with a casual smile.

" I feel a little bit odd but let's give it a push," Dunn thought and smiled back at the lady before entering.

The moment she entered, she met the interviewer standing with a creepy smile as she thought.

" Good morning Sir, I'm Dunn Edwards, I came for the post of assistant manager" Dunn smiled trying to look more formal.

" I know who you are, Take a seat" The interview ushered.

" Okay sir" She replied slowly as she pulled the chair backwards to sit.

" Do you know I'm the CEO of Rizma Clothing store?" A proud smile plays on his lips.

" Oh Sir, I just knew about that now" Dunn forced out the reply as she was already tired of his suspicious act.

The interview/Boss bent over to Dunn's neck and released a hot breath before he could do what was on his mind. He met himself on the ground with a broken waist.

Dunn flipped him over in defense, she picked up her bag and credentials and went to the door, She stopped suddenly and looked back.

" I can't let you free like that" Dunn smirked as she took slow strides towards him, he went up on his knees and was crawling back.

" You wanted to assault me, Do you know who I am?" With her eyebrow raised. She kicked his face with her left leg before turning with her left leg down and her right leg hitting his neck.

He fell to the ground heavily with blood streaming down his nose. " I'm not that violent but that doesn't mean I'm nice, Have a blissful hospital section" With that she walked out of the store.

*************

The room was filled with smells coming from cigarettes, smoke emitting from each of their mouths. A man dressed in a big coat with a brown hat on his head cleared his throat and sat up.

" When did you say the drugs will arrive?" He puffed out some smoke from his nose and mouth.

A young guy with glasses on turned his hand with his eyes glued on the wristwatch. " In the next three hours Sir"

" You have been saying that since the day before yesterday, Do you take me for a fool?" The man in the hat yelled pointing a gun at the man in glasses.

" If you can exercise a little bit of ....." A bullet found its way to his head, bursting out his brain and leaving a hole in his head as he hit the ground backward.

" Aiish, Pack his body and feed the wolves" He ordered before walking out of the room while smoking heavily.

A guy-looking Chinese ran towards the man in the hat and bowed slightly.

" What's the situation on the ground?" The man in the hat was facing the window.

" I think I found the lady" The Chinese looked and then stretched a picture towards the smoking man. A smirk appeared on the smoking man's lips as he said. He released a glad laugh with smoke puffing out of his mouth.
