Sunny day
She walked in today nervous as usual. But she never failed to show her politeness and generous smile to us. This time my heart wrenched again. Breaking bad news is always not fun and not my specialty but I had to. How I wished I've seen the wrong thing. How I wished she was never called into the room at that very second.
She remained quiet and responseless. I was confused if she understood. She looked as if she had not a clue but she knew there was a problem, and a big one. I took time to talk to her. Finance is a problem. But her status as a non-national is even more problem. But deep inside, she is still very human. My feelings protested. These nice people whose lives are so deprived deserve more to live compared to those who are infact national but only knew how to reach out their hands and beg for help without working their ass off.
It was a heartache. How I wished sometimes I could do miracles. There are a few cases like this already existing and I was thinking this might run in certain genes, although I doubt it would. But I have to realize that I am just an ordinary human. Sometimes the job just touches my conscience. And the conscience sometimes challenged the ethics. Afterall complexity makes human.
So much so on the emotion. Gonna leave later tomorrow for the weekend on the beach. Yea... beaching under the hot hot sun. Wanna get so..bronzy tanned this time, hehe.
PS: Miracles do happen to these people and hope miracle will occur again this time to this poor lady.
