It takes one click
One click of mouse
That’s all it takes.
Its amazing, how one little gadget
Can control
Your life .
I must get this application sent. All the stress and hard work I have put in. So why can't I click mouse. It dawns on me my life is going to completely change. Can I really leave my friends and family behind? It would be different if I was moving to the next city but I am moving to the other side of the world and I have not told a living soul.
If I press the mouse it will determine my life for good.
Freya comes flying at me for a cuddle and licks my face with such excitement and bang! The kids are playing on drums next door. I shout shut up and bang my fist repeatedly on the wall, which frightens poor Freya to bits and instead of jumping off the chair, she jumps right for my mouse and clicks the button. Nooooooo!
Freya runs for her bed. Oh no , hopefully my application is okay. I walk straight for the computer and on the screen it flashes in big bold red letters SENT.
I kneel down and put my hands into my face and sob my heart out. Freya comes walking over and knocks my hand away so she can lick my face. She rolls over on her belly so I give her stroke and I tell her it’s not her fault. You did me a favor because I would never have sent it. Now my fate has been left to the gods.
Two weeks later I am sitting at my desk at home, Freya is fast asleep on her bed. I take a sip put of my coffee while glancing at the internet. My email box flashes one new email. I log in to my msn account, there in black writing sits the words! Your application has been approved and finalized.
I hear a knock at the door and jump, accidently dropping my coffee on my keyboard and down my trousers. Ahh shit! That’s hot as I jump up and down trying to wipe the coffee off me. The knocking gets louder and louder.
‘Suzanne, I know you’re in there, open the bloody door. It’s freezing out here.’
‘I am coming, hang on, Jane, I have just spilt bloody coffee over myself’
‘Well, that was silly.’
I open the door and shout at her ‘I bloody know you cow, it’s your fault I did it in the first place.’ We both burst out laughing.
‘Coffee?’
‘Yes, please’
She goes to sit down at the coffee table and Freya comes over to see her for a stroke.
‘Suz, what’s this about application? What are you not telling me ?
Shit, I drop the milk in shock she was not meant to see that. Oh god what do I do now?
