So this is the assistant Trisha recommended.
Celeste reached out her hand and said, “Hi”
The other person was also very frank and shook hands with her, “Hi. I heard from Trisha about my situation, did she tell you?”
Celeste nodded, “She said you have a child and need to take care of them on weekends.”
The other person nodded, looking a bit anxious, “If it’s not convenient, I can find a full-time babysitter on weekends, which is close to my home, and I really need this job.”
Before responding, Celeste asked some simple questions.
Janetta responded with an easy fluidity, and it was clear that she had significant experience as an assistant, even having worked with prominent actors in the past.
She entered the industry at the age of 19, quit at 27, and accumulated eight years of experience, making her a very experienced person in the circle.
The reason she quit was to get married and have children. Because of her profession, she was often not at home, and both she and her husband were not local, so there were no one to take care of the kids. They thought about hiring a babysitter, but neither of them felt comfortable with that idea. The couple argued a lot about this. Eventually, after careful consideration, she quit her job to take care of their child.
She found a stable clerical job near her home. Although the salary was not high, life was relatively easy. She felt that this life was stable and had no problems taking care of her child.
A few years down the line, her husband’s career trajectory shot upwards, accompanied by a promotion and a salary hike. She anticipated a turn for a better life, but instead, she was blindsided by her husband’s infidelity.
Without hesitation, she proposed a divorce, and was decisive.
Because of her poor financial situation, custody was eventually given to her ex husband. She could only see her child on weekends and bring them home. Moreover, her family didn’t understand her, and now they were even unwilling to contact her because of the divorce.
She was eager to find a job and stabilize her career, so she could have a chance to win back her child’s custody.
Celeste had seen many unpleasant situations after divorce. She was puzzled when she heard Janetta handled the divorce so decisively.
“Since he was at fault, didn’t you think about suing him in court? That way, even if he has a better financial situation, he might not necessarily get custody.” Janetta shook her head, “I thought so before I got married, but after becoming a mother, I have many concerns. I don’t want my child to be involved. Even though he wronged me, he’s good to our child. After all, this is just a problem between us, and there’s no need to involve the child. He has better life, and the child will live comfortably with him. Once I can support myself, I’ll fight for custody in court.”
Perhaps because she deeply understood her feelings, Celeste suddenly felt very sad
When you become a mother, you have more concerns, and all the bitterness can only be endured silently.
She suddenly remembered what Liam had said.
If we’re not certain we can make it to the end, children will only become burdens.
Children are autonomous beings, not instruments employed to bind someone. Regardless of the presence of children, a marriage that lacks a foundational bedrock of love is doomed to collapse eventually Indeed, children can actually engender a sense of entrapment.
“Do you think I’m suitable for the job?”
Janetta asked softly, looking very nervous.
Celeste said, “You should know that I’m a newcomer in this circle, right?”
Janetta nodded, “Trisha told me.”
