CHAPTER VII. START OF ANOTHER DREAMA Chapter by Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)I lay down and close my eyes to give myself a break. I want a little sleep. Tomorrow will be the start of my battle.Marian’s eyes look three times bigger in amazement after I tell her what had really happened yesterday. We were through with our “Tom and Jerry” sickness and now we are seriously talking about my painting job. “So, you never had a talk yesterday,” Marian said. “Yes, I never heard his voice.” “That’s why you are having a day dream with his picture,” Marian is teasing me again. “I’m just looking at it so that I could make an excellent painting. Girl, this will be my masterpiece!” “How much?” She is referring to the amount stated in the contract. “Fifty thousand,” “Wow! Fifty thousand salary for one month. Congratulations, girl!” “It’s a one-month job only, so don’t call it monthly salary. After this, I don’t know when will be the next job or if I will have another client again.” “I said salary for one month. Not monthly salary. They’re different,” Marian reacted. “I hope Mr. Morales will like my painting.” “He will. Just do your best and prove to all that your painting is the best of all. Go, girl!”
Marian was no longer there in the room but still I am talking to myself like she’s there. “I will do my best , girl. I promise. This will be my masterpiece!” I lay down and close my eyes to give myself a break. I want a little sleep. Tomorrow will be the start of my battle. © 2013 Daisie Vergara (Dhaye)Featured Review
