*FLAPPING WITH GRACE.*

That day, a sun flunked down the terrace of the window and a balanced air was in the atmosphere. You were there—in your room—on your bed, nestled against the wall with your butt on the bed.

You stood rambled to the window to know what the air felt like. Perhaps, you love what you felt.

There are many, so many on your mind: poverty nudging you. The interview you went for: sceptical if they will call you. When you’ve secured many certificates and have nowhere to use them.

That thought still striking in your mind like a pestle pounded against the mortar. Then, your phone buzzed: unknown number. With curiosity, you picked it up, _“Hello!”_ your voice descending.
_“Hello. We are calling you from ABC company.”_ The person spoke with a British accent.

“ _Okay, sir,” you said, trembling.

_“We are excited to tell you that you have been employed. Check your email we’ve forwarded some things there.”_

The call ended.

You borrowed. to your mail and the first thing you first saw was the salary scale—800,000 per month with allowances.

Then, you start flapping with multi-colours of grace and blessings.
