Sarah and the other two walk into a room. The female employee ask their name and other personal information. She learns that the boy is in his 3rd year in college. The other woman who sits beside her wears a muslim dress. The woman's hair is covered with a black cloth. This woman has a beautiful fair complexion and has a pretty smile. There's a hint of shyness in her but at the moment she opens her mouth, she command a strong self confidence especially when she told about herself.Sarah learned that this woman is a graduate of BS Education Major in Chemistry (she forgot easily her exact words).....And that she is 32 years old. Sarah is a little astonished. "Hmm, I thought she's only 24. Well, I'm always wrong when telling people's age. But, I'm thinking if she's 32, then, she might be excluded in this interview. I read in their website they only accept 18 to 30 years old. Maybe the news last night didn't tell about the age range. But why, anyway, she is applying for this internship program considering she has a good educational background." But Sarah ceases it out in her mind. She knows for a fact, it really happens because of the country's deployment condition.The interviewer says, "Well, Ms. Zaida we are instructed to accept those out-of-school and in-school as well as other applicant". The lady interviewer continues in her explaining until she said, "Ms. Zaida, I'm sorry but you are already over age for this program. We can't accept you.Sarah can tell in the woman's eyes the disappointment. "Of course who would be happy when you hear a news like that", Sarah thought to herself. But, surprisingly, still the woman wears the pretty smile she has seen from her from the beginning.Then the interviewer continues to speak. She says with a smile, "Hmm, but you know Ms. Zaida, I'm recommending you to SOA Department. We are now having a man pooling there. And I guess you have the qualification we are looking for." The muslim woman's face brighten up. Sarah takes a breath of relief as if she has the one who received the good news. She feels happy for the woman. Sarah doesn't know but for her something great is happening.Here's a woman who applied earlier for a 52-day internship program and has just got rejected because of her age. But you know, who would have thought today is just her lucky day. Everything has just fallen in the right place in her favor"."Hmm, she went there aiming for this program. She has just rejected. Then, out of a sudden, the seemingly temporary defeat turned into a big opportunity for her." Sarah's mind is at work analyzing what has just happened. Then, she recalls her friend's words about the Universe Conspiracy. Be able to see the signs of the Universe. That it wants to help you. It is doing its work. It's harnessing all its power and means to help you get what your heart's sincerely desires."And she simply believed that......The end.
