1 The inteview

Shaylin

Sitting on my favourite white expensive furry furniture, Although it doesn't contrast with the warm saturated colour chosen for the office.

I don't care because my style of luxury is always my kind of fashion.

"Ahh! I'm bored!" Exclaiming to myself as I toss and turn with exhaustion.

Immediately the telephone sings, I raise slightly with enthusiasm as I hope to be informed that my day is over

"Hello Miss Shaylin "A soft tone speaks "Mr Martin is here for the interview, can I let him in?"

I roll my eyes as I instantly recall that I have an appointment "Yes Lucy, allow him to come through" I respond and drop the telephone with indolent.

A few minutes pass, I suddenly see the door handle twist as I portray elegance rapidly. The door opens slightly as I catch a glimpse at a tall muscular man with thick dark silky smooth hair, clean beard and a square jaw. His shoulders are broad,wearing a black velvet suit with a white dress shirt accented and a red power tie.

He walks towards the chair looking so punctual as I stare at his crystal grey eyes which seem to show no empathy.

"You may excuse us Lucy" I inform

She walks out of the room and closes the door.

"So Mr Martin, How are you?" I greet while my mind wrestles with the thought of how an attractive man could be looking for a job when he should be searching for his life partner

He smiles mysteriously "I'm good and you?" He asks in his deep voice

I portray a focused expression while my thoughts continue it's battle of questions "Ah,I'm good thanks, So you have applied for the position of a manager right?" I continue with a serious expression "Why should my company accept you?"

He stares at me for a few seconds mysteriously as if studying me than laughs hysterically.

Sitting opposite him clueless, whereby I am the owner of the company made me still feel uncomfortably stupid.

"What's funny because I don't get the joke!" I exclaim with annoyance

He smiles innocently "I'm sorry but are you the boss? Because you certainly don't look like one"

Immediately the words strike emotionally "Excuse me? What makes you think that!" I shout while responding with a questionable look

He smiles "Your appearance! You're dressed to go to a party not a business confrontation"

I look at myself rapidly and realise that he speaks the truth. I am dressed in black skinny jeans with a gold crop-top and gold short heel boots while my blond hair is tied up into a ponytail "While you can't judge me by my outfit because I am the boss and can wear whatever I want!" I retaliate

He nodes calmly in agreement than smiles innocently "Well boss, If you look at all my qualifications than you will surely know why I deserve the position" He responds as he hands me a pile of files which I open and discover his excellent qualifications

I can sense him staring at me curiously as I look through every page which gives an uncomfortable feeling. Firstly I don't know anything about business, my father is the well known trillioner in the construction industry Mr Carlos Gomez which makes me responsible for a part of the business. I never wanted to do this job but my father says I am his only trustee and only daughter, so today is one of those boring days at the office.

"Well, your qualifications make you qualified for this job but I will have to contact you if you're the person my company is looking for. Thank you and it was nice meeting you" I proclaim

He raises with a serious expression "Pleasure" while offering a hand shake

I accept the shake as I sense my thin hand shake his huge rough strong hand. He walks out of the room leaving an atmosphere of mystery
