Chapter 115 - Seducing God

Chapter 115 - Seducing God

Since noon, Anne and Linda had actually finished with the flowers that Mrs. Mary just sent and actually they could go home because tomorrow they had started college again, but because today there was an interview for the courier that Anne had posted in a job search portal as a result of the two of them still in the shop until the evening.

Of the 20 people who applied to become couriers, none of them matched the criteria that Anne wanted, because most of them asked for a high enough salary and Anne could not pay the salary they asked for.

Linda herself had been annoyed by those who asked for a salary that was double her current salary, therefore Linda seemed too lazy to interview the remaining candidates.

"Never mind Anne, only one more person left. Make an interview as soon as possible, lest he will also ask for a high salary, Anne," whispered Linda quietly to Anne who was preparing blank paper for the last prospective courier.

"Don't just judge people from the outside, Linda. What looks beautiful on the outside not necessarily has inner beauty as well. And vice versa," said Anne softly. She seemed to talk as slowly as possible so that the young man dressed in many patches in front of her did not hear.

"He looks like homeless guy, Anne. Why do you have to interview him? I'm afraid, I better call security," said Linda fearfully again, feeling uncomfortable since the last man before her came.

Anne only pinched Linda's waist so that Linda wouldn't talk much. She didn't want the last candidate for her courier to hear everything Linda had to say.

Linda herself immediately winced in pain when pinched by Anne, she also asked to be quiet and sat in the chair behind the counter.

"Previously I wanted to thank you because you were willing to come to this place to do an interview, before we start I ask you to fill in your personal data first on this white paper," said Anne softly.

"Didn't you ask about the files I have, Miss?" asked the young man who was in front of Anne quickly.

"For files and others later we can talk in the back, the important thing is right now I want you to write down your data on the paper that I gave you.

You don't need to be long, just be short and describe what you are like, so I'm sure to hire you. as a courier at my little flower shop," answered Anne, smiling.

Without a word, the young man immediately grabbed the pen in front of him, he then began to write his name on the paper given by Anne. Not much he wrote, only five lines, even then he wrote in an inscription that Anne could not read quickly.

He had to read it many times in order to understand what was written on the paper he was holding, not long after a smile appeared on his face. Suddenly Anne stood up and stretched out her hand to the man in front of her.

"Congratulations Paul, tomorrow you can start work," said Anne quietly with a smile.

"Are you serious, Miss Anne?" Paul stammered.

"Yes, im serious and oh yes this is for your down payment this month," said Anne quickly, handing Paul the fifty dollar bill.

Paul, who did not expect to be accepted for work by Anne, seemed even more surprised when he saw Anne giving him fifty dollars. His eyes were filled with tears as he reached for the money given by Anne.

Anne, who saw Paul take the money she gave, smiled when she saw Paul's expression that looked very grateful, as if Paul had never seen 50 dollars in his life. Holding back her tears, Anne finally gave Paul the key to the flower shop.

"Behind the cashier, there is a small room that I usually use to store vases and some of the tools I usually use to make flower bouquets, you can sleep there. But you have to tidy up the place first so you can sleep comfortably, tomorrow morning Linda and I will come a bit late because we've started college.

So you can tidy up the shop first and next to the cashier there is also a price list for some flowers that you can learn tonight, so tomorrow when Linda and I haven't arrived you can serve the customers," said Anne softly, handing the key to the flower shop to Paul, the new courier she received.

"Anne!!!" Linda screamed in surprise when she saw Anne give the key to the flower shop to Paul, whom she just met.

Hearing Linda's scream made Anne just turned around and put her index finger on her lips and blinked one eye without saying anything, Linda, who had opened her mouth, could not speak anymore because Anne forbade her to speak.

After explaining some important things to Paul, soon Anne and Linda finally left the shop because it was getting late.

"There's a food shop next door, if you are hungry you can buy food there, Paul, and again please help tonight when you sleep, turn off all the lights and don't forget to check the door again," said Anne quietly with a smile.

"Yes, Miss Anne, I understand," Paul said quickly.

"Yes, we're going home now, Paul, good night," said Anne softly as she waved her hand towards Paul who was standing in front of the shop.

"Good night, Miss Anne, Miss Linda. Be careful. See you tomorrow." Paul shouted loudly while waving his hands at Anne and Linda who were already in the car.

After honking the horn once, Anne then sped the car off to the highway, she had to drive Linda first.

"Anne, are you out of your mind?"

"Are you crazy, Anne?"

"Hurry back to the shop and get rid of the person as soon as possible before the money in the cash register was taken away by him,"

"Anne why are you just smiling?"

"Come on, Anne turn around, you are just weird hiring someone like that. Where do you give me the key to the shop too, what if tomorrow the shop is out of shape because all the expensive flowers are sold by him,"

Anne just kept quiet and kept driving her car when Linda took out babbling from her fear, she only glanced occasionally at the really scared Linda. Because she could not stand Linda's babbling, which was getting louder, Anne finally stopped the car suddenly which suddenly made Linda shocked and scared.

"Anneeeee ... you're crazy, I'm still young, Anne. I haven't married, Anne !!" Linda screamed loudly.

Without speaking, Anne immediately took out a piece of paper from her pocket to Linda.

"Read it," said Anne quietly.

"What's this?" Linda asked coldly, her eyes still shining with anger at Anne, who had just stopped abruptly.

"Just read," said Anne shortly.

"It's not clear, Anne, how can I read it," Linda said curtly.

The plaque

"Aaawww… it hurts Anne !!!" Linda screamed loudly again when Anne hit her bare arm.

"That's why seen properly, you've been just screaming," said Anne curtly, glaring at Linda who was flipping through the paper Paul had written.

Seeing Anne angry, Linda finally tried to focus on reading the paper that Anne gave, because Anne was annoyed to see Linda just twirling Paul's handwritten paper. Anne finally took back the paper in Linda's hand quickly.

"My name is Paul, I'm about twenty-one years old. I don't know for sure my age because I've been living on the street since I was little, I can read, write and count a little. What I want is to have a steady income so I don't starve anymore," he said. Anne slowly reads Paul's handwriting.

Linda immediately fell silent when she heard Anne's words, her voice suddenly caught in her throat and couldn't come out again. Her chest also felt tight suddenly for no reason.

"I once felt the pain of holding hunger Linda , so I know what Paul felt. Maybe I would be like you if I saw someone who immediately gave the key to a new shop like that, but somehow I felt Paul wrote it all down with honesty, Linda

Just reading him writing made me sick, so I gave him money to buy food and clothes. Because I know, not far from our flower shop there is a shop that sells clothes and food. I hope Paul can use the money to buy food and clothes to change so that he can sleep comfortably tonight in the warehouse,

I actually feel a little guilty for letting him sleep in the warehouse but I also can't do much because he's a man. I can't possibly take him back to the apartment , "said Anne quietly as she looked at the road in front of her.

"You're too kind to people Anne, aren't you afraid of being cheated?" Linda asked softly.

"I've done things like this before and ended up losing something really big in my life, but I believe that what was lost was not destined to be mine. Therefore I tried to sincerely give up what he took from me Linda, but one thing. which I have believed until now.

That God may not have tested me the same way over and over again, especially if my intention is sincere to help someone. I believe there is a? good karma Linda, "said Anne softly.

Hearing Anne's words made Linda shed tears that she had been holding in for a long time, Linda quickly hugged Anne.

"You shouldn't live on Earth, Anne, you should live with the angels in heaven. You're too good to be human," Linda said in a husky voice.

Anne just smiled at Linda's words, she took Linda's hug on her body.

"I'm seducing God to keep loving me Linda."
