《Possession》5. First Day
Advertisement
The time Isabelle spent with Ava, Axel and Emma last night at the cafe was amazing. They had their dinner and talked about almost everything from Ava's rejecting a guy to Axel's crush ignoring him.
The day was well spent with the family, after such a long time they were happy together and she wished from the bottom of her heart that their happiness remains like this.
Today is her first day at the university. The only thing changed is, she's going there as a janitor to work not as a student to learn.
She wasn't a good student in her high school but sure got pass fairly enough in all subjects. She had planned to take admission in one of the nearby university but now as her father is no more and as the elder of her siblings, she had to come forward and take the responsibility and for that she had to leave her studies for a while, until she get a proper job through which she can also pay for her own fees. But it's long ahead.
After sending the kids to school. She immediately changed her attire completely to that of a guy one.
She had thought a lot about it. What will the people think of a man dressed as a janitor coming out of Isabelle's house but again should she care? Nah!
She had thought about changing her attire in one of the nearby cafes but it'll appear suspicious to the staff, so it was better to change her attire at her home only.
She was ready looking like a man as she made her way out of the building and waited at the bus stop and soon she was standing in front of the university.
She went in nodding at the security guard on her way, who nodded back in greetings with a grin and without looking at the elite students, she went straight to the manager's office.

She got to know his name was Gareth as he gave her her ID card of the janitor of this university and instructed her to wear it at all costs. He then called someone as they both waited.
After a couple of minutes a boy came in. He was tall and good looking if she might add, with warm chocolate eyes, brown hair and white skin. He was clean shaved, which gave a good look to his jaw line, he was wearing the same uniform like hers with an ID the same like hers hanging on his neck.
Isabelle immediately looked away when she realised that she was checking him out. The boy didn't notice it somehow. Thanks to her attire; of a guy, the boy didn't pay much attention to her as he came to stand beside the desk.
"Jacob, this is Ryder. A new janitor. Today is his first day. Guide him with the essentials." Gareth told that boy named Jacob politely.
"Ryder, this boy Jacob here will guide you. Now off you go." Gareth said to the Ryder and dismissed them.
Isabelle stood up to follow the boy and gulped. He is tall and handsome. How in the world will she be able to work with him? She thought as she followed him.
After a little walk towards the janitor room. Jacob opened the door. "Come in." He said to her, who quietly followed in.
Jacob then started speaking as he went to pick up a new set of equipment. "You'll have to come early tomorrow before the university even starts. You'll clean the first and second floor before the students start to come in. After that you'll clean the cafeteria on the second floor before and after recess. After that you'll stay till the end of the university and after that you'll report to me and then you'll get off." Jacob said all the things as if it's an easy task as he handed her the things, which she took silently.

"Now as you're late today, first go clean the cafeteria. You only have half an hour to complete the task before recess." Jacob said dryly, making her want to smack his face. He can be polite and calm you know, after all it's her first day at work.
"What are you staring at, wasting time? Go do your work." Jacob spoke simply, making her want to punch him.
"Enlighten me where's the cafeteria!" She spoke in her girl voice and it was too late to realise, cause Jacob's eyes widened and hers too as she awkwardly coughed and then spoke in her practiced male voice.
"Hahah! Throat problem!" She spoke in a manly voice as it somehow worked and Jacob rolled his eyes.
"Second floor, third corridor will lead you to the cafeteria." He spoke dismissively and the girl nodded without wasting a millisecond leave from there.
She kept her eyes lowered and cap properly on her head so her face won't be seen much, as she made her way to the second floor with heavy equipment in her hands.
It didn't take much time to find the cafeteria and she went in there. Damn! It was as big as the stadium, she thought sadly. She checked the time on her wrist watch and she only had twenty freaking five minutes left to clean the whole darn place.
She immediately rolled her sleeves a bit and started to work. It was not that dirty so it took her only twenty minutes to clean the floor and ten minutes to clean the tables, two to three tables were left when the students started to barge in. It was like someone literally opened all the cages of the zoo.
She fastened her pace and it was the last two tables left. Students started filling in, chattering, laughing and eating.
She was cleaning the last table, when she felt tall bulky boys sitting on it, not caring that she's still cleaning. There were three of them, looking at her making her dead nervous as she not once looked at them.
Their gaze bore in her head, she after finishing abruptly turned around to leave, only to shriek lowly as her hand went up her bearded mouth.
There in front of her stood a tall, muscly guy and slowly her emerald eyes looked up only to meet with cold grey ones. He was standing way too close to her.
"A new janitor eh!" He mocked making her gulp.
