The next morning I woke up just in time to prepare for work. While I was shaving, I realised that I think of all the things which happened to me the previous day. I remembered the look on my brother’s face when I did one silly thing after another. In fact it was funny. My new job was so different than my old one, so I did not take it seriously. I did not expect anything big from it either, so I felt no tension or stress.
While humming some song I put on one of my suits. “I have to buy some regular clothes” I taught and I went out in the rainy morning.
While I was walking, I taught why I really accepted this job. Was my wish to get closer to my brother a good enough reason? Anyway, I knew I did the right thing. After the collapse of my carrier and after my divorce the last thing I needed was sitting at home, feeling sorry for myself, drinking alcohol and staring at TV.
While my brother and I got up in the van, he said that that day I’d better watch how is he doing the cleaning job. He taught I needed some more time for training, because otherwise I could cause damage to some expensive furniture or could injure myself again. I did not agree at all. I answered to my brother that if I am going to learn, I have to practice. I did not mind him to give me some advice, but I did not want to be idle. I promised to read every cleaning product’s label and to put my rubber gloves on.
My brother could not resist my persuasion for long and he let me work again. But I had to promise not to admit the same errors like yesterday.
I tried to be focused and paid attention to every word my brother said. And it worked. All day long I did much work without making any kind of trouble. My brother’s mood was getting better and he was satisfied with my work.
At the end of the day I suggested to him that we could drink some beers together. At first he told me he has to go home, but then smiled and said: “I am joking, of course I will come with you. The only problem is I don’ know bars where people with suits like yours go. But we’ll think of something.‘’
