"Hello, ma'am. I'm back in the staff house, How are you?"
I'm closer to my manager than to my supervisor. She is a very kind person, she will nag at you if you make a mistake but will stand up for you if she believes you didn't do anything wrong, regardless of the situation.
"Glad to hear that. We are fine but at work, we have some problems" she replied.
"And what is that?" I asked feeling nervous this time.
"It's about our Alphalist, you know it was quite late already, which is not our fault but our formula doesn't match with the record of head office" she explained. 
Indeed, we were two months late but it was not because we did not move on time but because it was the head office that delayed some of the data.
Her response made me feel relieved—at least it had nothing to do with the finance division. My position at the company is Personnel-Finance, which initially made me feel like I couldn't handle the double workload and duties, but humans have one innate quality that allows our bodies and even our brains to become accustomed to the routines we develop through time. The only disappointing part is that, like everyone else, I had anticipated an increase in my salary but it never occurred.
"Okay, ma'am, I will work on that tomorrow God willing" 
We said our goodnights and ended our text discussion after my last response. I wanted to confront my supervisor for making me feel so uneasy, but instead, I opened my Facebook account.
I was in my account scrolling down and posting some of our farm's photos when I remember that I have three new friends from Puerto Rico. I was still astonished that a person like them requested me to be their friend. 
'I will chat sir Andro, he is also a young person maybe I can have some fellowship with him' I thought before scribbling a short message to him.
After I sent my quick message to him, I lay down in my bed ready to sleep. 
A few minutes passed, and I received his reply. I can say that based on his message he is a humble person and a serious Christian. That night we end up exchanging a few messages before I went to sleep.
______________
Days passed, and we become closer in chat, I got to know him more but what we really have is only a pure friendship.
One day, he wrote to me something like this;
If you assume, that I'm on Facebook looking for a girlfriend or a wife, please understand that's not the case._
I scoffed when I read this message because I thought it was a little arrogant, and then I began to wonder if there was a person that is giving him an idea about it or if he alone thought that I was just waiting for an opportunity to trap him. It took me a while before I calm myself and politely reply to his message.
My reply is to express that I was not interested in any relationship and I am not even planning to get married, which is true unless God will reveal something to me.
After that awkward conversation, I could tell that he was beginning to feel at ease with me as I do with him. We discussed a wide range of topics, including our personal lives, our jobs, and most topics related to the Lord.
He also asked me a few introspective questions that prompt me to reveal to him my desires if God allows me to have the opportunity to meet the man for me.
Like last night he asked me these questions;
* What are you looking for in a man?
*Where do you stand in terms of courting time?
* How do you consider your parents in this?
My reply to him was very sincere and comes from my prayers.
My Dear Brother Andro,
Good morning to you! May God bless you today and guide you always in His truth.
As for me, I am doing good. Today, I was a little busy at work because it's our hiring season meaning as personnel it's my task to interview and hire applicants so I was not able to check any messages on my phone.
Regarding your inquiries, I will address each one individually. You may think some of my responses are odd or peculiar, but this is the reality. 
-I want a man who is a believer, of course! Loves God more than me so that he can love me still even when I gain weight, get wrinkles, and have gray hair. The one that never is ashamed to hold my hand in public, and most importantly, he won't nag at me if I don't have the income to bring home. These might be simple but it is the most important things to me.
About your second and last questions, I will answer them together.
* Honestly, in courtship it may be very strange for you but it is my prayer that the man who wants to marry me will ask my hands first to my parents and then to the elders of the church before even courting me because I know I will fall in love with that man if he will just treat me well. And as you see my parents are very important to me in this decision and I trust them a lot especially my father because I know, he will not give my hands to just any man. 
This is all for now.
With all sincerity,
Sister Lois
With this message, I went to bed. But that night, sleep become far from me, and my thoughts wander around, maybe it was triggered by the questions.
