First Job
(1) I had heard about this—the frustrating buildup of exhaust and screeches and blaring horns, the people lined up in restrictive, never-ending lines as if waiting to enter an amusement park full of exhilarating rides and overpriced souvenirs. (2) But we were not waiting on anything of the sort, or even remotely of the sort. (3) We were simply waiting to go home from our jobs in this stop-and-go traffic. (4) I had recently applied for my first job, and this was the thanks I had received.
(5) When I arrived home, Mom asked about my day, but the smile that accompanied her questioning was neither of delight nor of curiosity; it was a smile that was waiting patiently for me to unload my frustrations, a smile of particular expectations and cruel intentions of self-satisfaction. (6) But I did not unload or give in. (7) I remarked with a matching smile that my day had been wonderful, rewarding, and surprisingly educational. (8) Mom's smile turned to a look of astonishment, but I did not feed her any more lies.
(9) I walked upstairs to my room with a steady pace, not looking back. (10) I lay on my bed, that I had obviously outgrown, and relished in the pride that my determination and optimistic attitude had given me.
