C11 Work Was Work

My parents saw it as a major opportunity, especially since the Woods were technically connected to their employment.

Chris and I spoke about it. Despite everything that had happened between us and Ben, we both agreed on one thing work was work.

We needed opportunities and we couldn’t afford to let personal history stop us. I applied for the Cybersecurity internship. Chris applied for Business Administration.

For the first time in a long while, I felt like my life was moving forward again.

Because Ben’s father knew us, it was easy for both Chris and me to get into the internship program at Wood’s IT Company.

On the day we arrived, there was excitement in the air. We celebrated quietly between ourselves, knowing this was a big step in our lives.

None of us truly understood what was coming next.
