INSEPARABLE - A story about friendship

CHAPTER TWO

"How do I look? " Amarachi asked Ini, posing in front of a mirror.

"You look sweet hun, you don't even need to talk too much, seeing you

alone would make the manager give you the job."

"Hahahaha, come on stop flattering me"

"I'm saying the truth babe, you can't be denied the job"

"I hope so"

"Please let's go now, so we can beat the traffic, you know"

Both girls laughed as they left the house and got into Ini's Honda car.

Amarachi looked indescribably beautiful in her dark blue trouser suits,

she had a pretty round face and a fair complexion, one that would

make guys always take a second and long look at her. When she

smiled, she revealed a nice set of tooth and dimples on her cheeks. She

had a blonde like hair which made people conclude that she escaped

being an Albino. Her beauty could be likened to that of the Nollywood

actress, Omotola Jolade.

Ini was also very pretty, fairly dark in complexion with long and very

dark hair. She had an elegant body shape and figure six that made

people refer to as a model. Her smile and composure reminds one of a

Nollywood Actress, Genevieve Nnaji.

They got to Videx International Limited just some minutes before eight

o'clock. They parted at the car park just after Ini wished her friend

success in the Job interview.

Amarachi found her way to the reception in the account department,

she met two other people who had come for the interview and sat close

to them, waiting for her name to be called.

The two other applicants were called in before her, after about forty five

minutes, she was called on. By that time, there was already four other

applicants who waited also at the reception.

"Good morning sir" she greeted as she entered the office.

"Good morning, Miss Kolawuyi Amarachi Toyin, you can have your

seat" The manager replied looking up, " You are here for the interview,

are you sure you know what this job is about ?"

Contrary to her expectation, the manager was a young man in his late

twenties. He looked serious and business minded, his looks didn't

bother her, she was well prepared.

After some minutes of questions and answers, the manager, Dennis

Michaels paused for some minutes and spoke with a smile " Alright,

Miss Kolawole, we would review your credentials and get back to you,

you can leave now"

He watched as she left his office, she was definitely the most intelligent

applicant he had interviewed in his few years as a Manager, she would

get the job, he was sure of this.

...........................................................................

Kelvin drove home excited in his New Toyota Camry Official Car, He had

just been promoted to the post of the Public relations manager in the

company where he worked and had been given a car alongside with

other benefits. He worked for a multinational company, Devi.

Devi was known for its several top quality products, her employees

were always proud to display their badges and speak about the

company to others. Kelvin joined the company for not more than three

years and had been promoted four times already due to his hard work

and intelligence and some other factors which he wasn't aware of. He

had become an object of envy for employees who he met in the

company.

He drove into the compound and used the car horn to attract his

flatmates who he knew would have returned from their places of work.

Bode was the first to come out, his face clearly showed surprise at the

sight of the car. As Bode examined the car, Frank walked outside too to

check what the disturbance was.

Kelvin broke the news to them, "Hey guys, I've just been promoted, my

salary has been tripled and this is my new ride".

His friends were so happy for him that they were speechless, they

hugged him tightly and shook him.

Finally, Frank broke the silence , " Kelvin you don hammer o, your

money has come, you must celebrate this for us"

"Yes o, you must o" Bode supported

" You guys should go and change your

clothes, lets drive around town for now, on Friday evening or Saturday we would

celebrate properly"

Bode and Frank rushed in to change their tops only, they drove out of

the compound two minutes later.
