Chapter 26 Annie

• If I say my feet don't hurt, I'll be lying. Why does anyone have to work this hard and get paid peanuts? I guess that's life or maybe I’m the one who sees it as peanuts. Either way, I hope it sorts their bills. When I leave this place, I want to help people. Financially, materially, name it. I can just imagine how many families will feed well if I channelled the money I used in getting frivolous things to helping the needy. I need to de-clutter my closet. There are just too many clothes, shoes, bags and pieces of jewellery in there. Some I wore just once and some I haven't even tried on.
• I know I said James should make new friends and get a life but it saddens me that he didn't even come out of his room to check on me when he heard me come in. I prefer it when he's worried that I'm out so late than when he's not. What exactly do you want Annie? I already feel like we won't be seeing so much of each other since he resumes by 10 and I resume by 8. What was I thinking agreeing to work from 8-9. I guess I wasn't thinking. If I was home, I would still be in bed by 8. Come to think of it, what's the whole point of graduating with honours in Business if all I do is sleep, party, shop and travel? What would it feel like to work in my father’s company? Well, I can’t wait to find out. Cat-walk-in with my white Burberry bandage dress and my red Loubs Torrida pumps.
• I drag myself out of bed, change into my towel and take a quick shower. I've never showered so fast in my life. It must be the pain shooting through my feet. I gather my night skin care kit and head over to my bed.
