I just got a new job and formed this clique with these three other ladies. One of us was married (Vivian) ,<br> one engaged (Voke) ,<br> and the two of us left (Monsoon and myself) were *very* single. \n\nTwo weeks into our training,<br> we realized the job was was all hype: the working conditions were slave like and the pay,<br> horrible. As expected,<br> we started looking for alternatives.\n\nVoke's fiance sent her job openings and we all gathered to check them out. It got to my turn and she handed the phone to me to transfer the vacancies. I did and excused myself. \n\nFive minutes later,<br> she called me asking if a bbm pin was mine (BBQ was the in-thing then). I checked and confirmed it was. \n\n#### Why was she asking? \n\n#Then she dropped the bombshell\n\nHer fiance sent it to her asking who it belonged to. \n\n## Huh? He what? How did he get my pin? \n\nHer reply? Someone sent it to him. \n\nThen we all went silent. If a pin had dropped at that moment it would have woken a sleeping child. \n\nI played the scenario in my head:\n\nI'd used to phone last,<br> only for *le boo* to message that someone sent him a pin. \n\nI looked at their faces and saw clearly what they were thinking. \n\nI defended myself,<br> but I could see the stark disbelief written. \n\nI felt embarrassed. Humiliated even. It seemed like I was trying to snatch Voke's fiance and nothing I said convinced anyone. The more I tried to explain,<br> the more guilty and defensive I looked. \n\n![images (8).jpeg (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmSvd7ANW4ZX5VxyEP66vaSZtk9UcyXnAE69zWEUAYqpC4\/images%20(8).jpeg)\n\n## Later\n\nThey reduced topics of their fiance and husband. Vivian even refused me staying over at her place one time we closed late and we're still out by 1am. \n\n*Her Reason? *\nHer husband didn't like visitors. \n\nI understood,<br> but it didn't stop me from being embarrassed. \n\n# My Vindication\n\nMy vindication came several months after I left that company. I still had Voke's on my bbm list and got a message from her. On checking,<br> it was the pins of there people. Turned out one of them was her fiance. \n\nWhen I asked,<br> she said she was still trying to get used to the phone and it keeps sending pins to random people. \n\n# My Anger\n\nWhy didn't you let the gang know the phone had that fault that day? It would have saved me that great embarrassment. \n\nIn the end,<br> turned out she alone got to know I was innocent of thay act. I still see the others from time to time and I still can't help but feel slightly embarrassed.\n\nShould I be? \n\nI dunno. Guess I just can't help it.",<br>"json_metadata":" \"tags\":[\"relationship\",<br>\"embarrassment\",<br>\"life\",<br>\"nigeria\",<br>\"love\" ,<br>\"users\":[\"adejoke\" ,<br>\"image\":[\"https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmcMWZXu3eDW8nVWSXGpn3CBnCR3cUpRpENFCVWJcdjyiR\/IMG_20180106_161303.jpg\",<br>\"https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/DQmSvd7ANW4ZX5VxyEP66vaSZtk9UcyXnAE69zWEUAYqpC4\/images%20(8).jpeg\" ,<br>\"app\":\"steemit\/0.1\",<br>\"format\":\"markdown\" " | vote | "voter":"paigegirl", "author":"paigegirl", "permlink":"my-most-embarrassing-day", "weight":10000 |
