Chapter Five
That evening after dinner, I asked to talk to Seto in private. Mokuba took Samuel and they went to play games. As I sat there I decided to tell Seto about wanting to get a job. I finally found my courage and said "I have to find a job, you've been very nice to us but I have to find a way to support us." Seto sat there listening to what I had to say, then he said "there's an opening at Kaiba Corp if you're interested."
I asked "doing what?" Seto said "being my personal assistant, or in other words my secretary." Without evening thinking I said "how much does it pay?" Seto laughed out loud and when he told me I nearly fell off my chair. I couldn't believe that anyone would be paid that sum of money and when I told him he said "it's not easy to get along with me. Do you know that some people actually say that I'm to demanding?" Then I burst out laughing and I said "I'll take it."
I called Yugi and asked if he could give me a ride to Kaiba Corp tomorrow to apply for a job." Yugi laughed and asked "are you going to try for the position of Kaiba's assistance?" I laughed and then I said yes and we both had a good laugh, he said "I'll be there around nine, is that alright?" I told him that it would be fine and I said thanks and hung up the phone.
I told Samuel about that "I had to get a job and that he would have to stay with someone till I got off work." He looked at me with his sad look and it reminded me of his father, then he asked "will they like me?" I gave him a hug and said "honey, yes they'll like you." He hugged me and we went downstairs to dinner.
When Yugi dropped Samuel and me off at Kaiba Corp, I forgot how huge it was. When we walked into the building, the Security Officer asked "who I was and when I said my name he smiled and said come with me." He showed me where Seto's Office was and there sat this very nice lady who asked "why I was there. When I told her she smiled and said my name is Grace and I will be showing you what your job entails, then she noticed my son and Grace asked who is this sweet young man?" Samuel said "my name is Samuel Mica Jennings and I'm three." Grace laughed and said "well you can call me Grace but I'm not telling how old I am."
After she showed my what my job was, she told me "there's a daycare on the first level and they are really good at taking care of the children of the workers here. Let me take you there and you can talk to Shirley." When we walked into the room, Samuel's eyes got really big and he said "mommy do I get to come here?" Then a lady came over and Grace told her "that I was going to be working here and that I would need to have her son stay here." Shirley asked me "my name and if I was married?" I told her "that I was, but my husband had died." Shirley smiled and told me how much it would cost a day and I nearly fainted. Grace then said "don't worry it will be deducted from your check each month." Then we left and Grace walked us to the door and said "see you tomorrow and she gave Samuel a piece of candy and told him be good for your momma."
I called Yugi and he came and took us home. I told him that I got the job and laughingly he said "good luck."
That evening at dinner, Samuel told "Seto and Mokuba about the place he was going to stay while momma worked and it was really big and had lots of other kids and toys." Seto smiled at him and he said "you'll have lots of fun and make lots of friends." When I was giving Samuel his bath he asked "momma, why did grandpa call me a bastard?" I nearly fell into the tub with him. I had to fight back tears as I explained to him "honey your grandpa was a very angry man and when he gets angry he says bad things to people." That seemed to make sense to him because he let the subject drop, but I knew when he got older I would have to really tell him the truth, but right now he was to young to understand. He said his prayers gave me a kiss and went to sleep. I asked God to give me the strength to make it through this trying time and find the wisdom to answer my sons question about his grandpa. I set the alarm and laid out what we would be wearing tomorrow, then I turned off the light and went to sleep.
