Love Amidst Pain

Seated behind a wheel, a young woman in her twenties was crying profusely!

She kept wiping the tears but it wouldn't stop falling. She hit her hand on the wheel several times, trying to vent out her anger till her soft slender hand became bloody red!

" Miss! The container crashed and all the goods were destroyed! We lost everything, Miss!" The word which had been hunting her for an hour now came back playing in her head again and she screamed!

" Argh!" The lady shouted as she turned the wheel and parked her car beside the road.

If she continue driving, she feared she might have accident and another problem was the last thing she wanted right then~

" I was warned! Everyone warned me! I wanted to listen but my stubbornness kicked in and now I'm fucking ruined!" She sobbed as she rested her head on her wheel.

The young lady's name was Rosalie. Rosalie was from a wealthy home and she had always enjoyed luxury since her childhood~

She established her own company at the age of 19 and she had always given her all to it so as to make it soar high.

She rejected the help of her parents and friends and did everything in her power to make the company strong.

The company celebrated its sixth year anniversary a month ago and she received praises from everyone for bringing the company to the position it was then and she was glad!

But a particular lousy mouth mocked her that day and told her off! She told her how incompetent she was and pointed out all her loopholes which made Rosalie very unhappy.

That was what prompted her to invest in a foreign business. She sent a huge amount of money to some foreign clients to supply high grade products to her company. Everyone warned her and told her it was risky but she was desperate!

Desperate to show the lousy mouth that she was competent and she could always increase her company's finances on her own. So she sent the money, turning deaf ears to the warnings.

She had been expecting the goods since two weeks ago only to be called this morning that the goods crashed and everything in it was destroyed!

She couldn't wrap her head over it and she was devastated!. The money was all her life savings! She had nothing now and even the company would suffer if she didn't get the money back.

Rosalie wasn't ready to ask her parents for money nor her friends! She wasn't even ready to tell them anything as she knew it would only bring insult to her.

Many people would mock her and point out her incompetency~

" I've done everything for this company for the past six years that I can't just let it go down the ruins like this! I really can't lose everything this way! I don't want to start all over again!" She cried alone in her car.

She opened her car door and took one step out when her phone rang .

" Who the hell is calling me right now?! I'm really not in the mood for this!" She screamed and hissed.

She wanted to ignore the phone and leave the car but she decided against it. She picked her phone and checked the ID...

* Evelyn ( love)* was written on her phone screen.

" It's Evelyn..." She said slowly as she lost all interest in picking the call.

Evelyn was her best friend since childhood and they hardly do anything without each other .

Rosalie loved her best friend very much but she was not ready to tell her this either. She was ready to keep her problem to herself but that wasn't really the reason she didn't want to pick the call...

She didn't want to pick it because she knew her best friend well enough to know she was calling to gist her about society stuff which she was not ready to listen to this afternoon.

She dropped the phone and let out a deep breath.

" I wish all this is nothing but a dream...a very bad dream. A very very bad dream, I will soon wake up from~ I'm not ready for this and I don't think I deserve this either! I'm just fucking tired!" She mumbled and sighed.

Her tears had stopped falling after she had cried for an hour already and she just kept sighing here and then to let out her frustration.

" Ohhhhhhhhhhhhohhhh!" Her phone rang out loud and she knew it was her best friend again.

" should I just talk to Evelyn? I can tell her everything right?? She had always been my adviser since I started this company and even though I didn't take help from anyone, I always took her advice and I always cherished them.

If there is anyone who won't mock me right now, then it's her. I know she will be a bit mad at me for keeping it away from her when I wanted to invest in it but she will come back and give me the comfort I need.

Maybe I should just talk to her?" Rosalie thought as she stared at her phone's bright screen.

She hesitated a bit before picking the call and she regretted picking it immediately she picked it as Evelyn nearly destroyed her healthy ears~

" You silly girl! Where did you drop your phone since morning?! This is the fifth time I've been calling you today!

Tell me, are you with a boyfriend?? If so, I'm coming to crash that boyfriend of yours with the tire of my car right now!" Evelyn hollered over the phone and Rosalie had to keep the phone away from her ear for the sake of her healthy ears~

" Girl~" Rosalie complained but her best friend wouldn't listen that easily...

" Hey! I'm coming over to your place tomorrow and I will make sure to smash your nose in when I see you!" Evelyn threatened and Rosalie shuddered.

" Anyway...I have a gist for you..."

" here she is ... Wanting to gist with me after threatening me!"

" You know Mr Logan right?? He is in need of a surrogate mother and he promised to pay any amount to any lady that volunteers!"
