ADELE P.O.V

"Can't you talk?" My manager asked and bang his hand on the table angrily.

Mr clerk, can you see what you caused, this baldhead man is gonna give me hypertension today.

"Am very sorry sir, it's a personal issue" I said. "Am giving you the last chance, consider yourself fire if you come late again" my manager said.

"Thank you very much Mr manager" I replied happily.

"Don't thank me just get out of my office!" He said and I secretly roll my eyes at him and turned to walk out of his office.

"Adele come back here" he said and I turn back immediately. I don't really know what this man want from me.

"Sir!" I said. "Have you think about what I told you?" He asked.

"no sir, I don't have time to think about it" I replied. Just imagine this baldhead man asking me out.

"I will advice you to think about it fast!" he said. "Alright sir" I replied him.

"you can go!" Phew that's a relief. I walked out of his office and rest my head on his office door and breathe out in relief.

"Adele what happened to you, wait.... Don't tell me the manager have sacked you, oh poor girl" she said.

"God why did you give me a friend like this f00l" I said out loud and she roll her eyes at me.

"Are you tired of seeing my face in this place?" I asked.

"No, you look pitiful when you walked out of the manager office, so I concluded that he has sack you" she said.

"That baldman can never sack me because he hasn't gotten what he wants from me, all men are just useless"

"My father and brothers aren't useless, I have warned you times without number to stop saying this nonsense" she said.

"To you am saying nonsense, but to me am talking from experience, my dad is a very useless man, have you forgotten what Collins did to me, he played me just because I decided to give him a chance and now this baldhead man is asking for out, am not even lucky when it comes to relationship" I said to her.

"but the manager isn't that old, he is just 35, so I don't see anything wrong in it" she said.

"Can to just listen to yourself, a married 35 years old man is asking me out and you're here telling me that you don't see anything wrong in it, just stay away from me today, you aren't a good friend" I said and walked away and she run after me. "Adele I am very sorry" she said.

ADELE P.O.V

"Adele come inside the car let me drop you off" Mr Roger my manager said.

This baldhead man just wanna frustrate my life.

"Thank you very much sir, am not interested" I replied politely.

"Adele did you still need your work?" He asked and I nod my head. "I will advice you to enter the car now if you still wanna keep your work" he said and I rush inside the car, I am not ready to lose my job now, not now that am saving for mum operation.

He drove inside our compound and I met dad outside with two of his b*tches.

He was giving me a weird glance as I stepped down from the car.

I wave my hand at my manager and he drove off. I roll my eyes at my dad and was about to walked inside before he dragged me back.

"Who's that guy that dropped you off?" He asked.

"It's none of your business" I replied. "It's my business because I am your father" he said and I burst into laughter.

"Did you just called yourself a father?" I asked angrily. "Adele I don't wanna see you with any man until you clock 35 years" he said.

Is this man being serious here. "Am sure I am not the one you're talking to" I said.

"Adele I know what am saying, stay away from guys" he said.

"Okay, I have heard you" I replied with an eye roll. He should just let me in so I can give mum her drugs.

"And lastly you can't enter inside this house if you don't give me your salary" he said.

"what did you want to use it for?" I asked. "I want to use it to pay my darlings off" he said pointing to the two girls in his front.
