I am good with laptops and electronics, because it was my specialty at university haven't started searching for a job, I still want to enjoy the free life and do whatever I want.
However, being good in electronics doesn't mean I can fix everything, because I have this laptop that I couldn't repair. I tried everything but nothing works.
One day, I was walking in the city streets. I found a boutique... it really looked like they were just selling computers and other gadgets, I was getting ready to walk away then somehow I lifted my eyes and there it was written "sell and repair laptops". And I thought why not give it a try..
I entered then I took a look at the whole store. It was bigger than what it looked from the outside.
"Can I help you?" a voice brought me back to reality.
"Hmm...hey ...yes actually my laptop has something wrong, and I want some specialist to take a look at it" I was a shy person so I didn't look at the voice speaking to me, until I finished. And there she was, a tall blonde girl with the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen.
"Well you are at the right place, please follow me" she said smiling, I smiled back at her and I followed her with no questions asked. And there we were, at a large room full of laptops from all kinds. She turned and looked at me, and then our eyes met for a moment...she was saying something to me, but my mind was nowhere to be found...suddenly I heard her calling me...then I found myself looking at here with her smiling.
"ah...hmm...here...this is my laptop " I put it down on a desk ,then she turned it on...after a while she said ,"interesting, it's Windows Trust with all the drivers needed, it's really rare when I find Trust with all the drivers especially with your laptops brand...who upgrade it ?"She asked friendly.
"Actually it's me. It was first on Vista, I turned it into XP, then finally Trust" I noticed that while I was talking, she was looking into my eyes (of course where would she be looking?),the I get stressed out, so I looked in different ways but hers.
"Nice...so what's the problem?" she said looking at the laptop's screen
"first, when I turn on my laptop, it gives me an ERROR...like a key is pressed, while there is no key...I thought the problem was in my bios, I fixed it but still have the same problem..."I said lookin at her.
She started looking at my computer's configurations...she looked at me and said
"Maybe the problem is in the keyboard itself...it should be cleaned."
I answered with a wild smile "I tried that, I found a stuck key, I repaired it but still nothing"
"Ok, maybe it's a virus, we should upload an antivirus?"
"no, I've already tried it..."
"is there something you haven't tried" she said smiling wisely.
"Yeah...actually there is something ...I think the problem is still in the bios, we should change it, don't you think?" she looked to me with a confused look, then after a while she spoke.
"You are good; I think it's the only solution...why didn't you try it?"
I answered calmly:"to tell you the truth, I can't. Because I need a person with specialty, also ...i don't have the materials needed to open it and change it" I said embarrassed.
"Okay...I see!! I have an idea." She stood up and offered me a chair. " suit yourself." Then she disappeared. After 10 minutes she came back with a big box of tools." here you go, you can fix it now, while I go and see other customers" she said smiling. Then she was gone. Honestly I didn't know about that smile...it was so challenging .i started working on my laptop, it took me a half an hour to do everything...when I was putting the last touches, she came back.
"So are we done" she said getting closer.
"Yeah I think so..."I said.
"Well turn it on...what are waiting for!!!"
I turned it on, I was really hoping that it will work...for the sake of my ego.
"There is no struck error...good. Now let's see if it will work if we type something on the keyboard"
When she was getting ready to type in something...in my mind it was like a slow motion...and I was like please please please work. ...yes it worked. Thank you so much God.
`I'm impressed..."she said looking directly into my eyes.
"Thanks...so how much do you owe you?" I said happy.
"Oh...no...you fixed it yourself, I didn't do anything...?"
"Sure thing u did...you gave me the bios...at least I should pay for it."
She came close to me and said:"tell me ...how did you figure out the solution?"
"I was lucky I guess..."I said steeping back
"No I don't think so... I think you are good at it...I have a proposition for you...you can keep yourself busy by working here... the money will be good...all I need is your approval!!"she said taking me hands
I said confused as ever:"I'm sorry; do you want me to work here. Why? I mean isn't there other people who wants this job more than I do?"I said taking back my hands.
"Hey look, to be frank...when I'm around guys, I feel unsecured...like all what they want is getting into your pants" we said together. Then we looked at each other for a while..I was the first to break the ice ..."I really don't know...can you give some time to think about it?"
"Yeah sure...here is my card...you can call me to let me know about your answer".
"alright...thanks ...anie" looking at the name in the card.
