him.
“Excuse me? Can you tell me where JAI Company is?”

“Yeah sure, go down the road and take a right and you should see a tall building, bye”
“Thank you”
I found it at last. Why is my heart beating fast? I am so nervous I hope I do well. I bet they won’t even hire me.
I reached the building and the man was right. It was indeed huge. It was extremely tall and wide and just looking at it made me wish I could turn back. What am I getting myself into? Maybe I should just forget it and look for a job somewhere else. No, Launa you can do this. Don’t be a coward. I have to do this whether I like it or not.
There were guards standing straight outside of both doors and looked at me and then smiled. They opened the doors and I slowly walked in holding my breath hoping no one would notice me. Everywhere you looked there were men in suits and women neatly dressed in their skirts and suits and people with Bluetooth’s in their ears, people on the phone and making coffee? There was the sound of the constant ringing of phones. People ran around with their briefcases. It was all too much of a business place I don’t think I fit in at all. They all look really high class. In all my nervousness I hadn’t noticed a women coming up to me and when she talked I jumped out of fright.
“Hello, how can I help you?”
“Oh err I am here for a job interview with the director?”
The women smiled at me, “okay right this way. You’re actually right on time. He has just come in from a meeting so you can go on in and meet him now. Please follow me”
“Oh that’s great thank you”
She walked through the hallway to the office. It was all very office like I felt like I was out of place and a bit uncomfortable.
“He will be right with you. You will be questioned by the chief director who is leaving soon. He is looking for employees to replace him. That is the job you are going for so you have to go through the interview with him. If he agrees for you to join then the director will agree”
“Okay thank you”
The women left. She seemed nice. I forgot to ask her name. Well I can ask her if I work here. I opened the door and came in. he asked me to sit down and asked me numerous questions and I just answered them to what I would do if I was in that sort of situation and he seemed impressed. You could tell by his expressions. He finished his questions and then took out his phone and rang up someone. I patently waited.
“Hello boss. Yes. I like this one. I want this girl. She is very bright and smart. I like her. so do you want to check her out? Yeah okay then, bye sir”
He hung up the phone and the looked at me and smiled.
“Okay the boss is on his way now to have a look at you and check first to see if you are good enough and if you can have the job.
“Okay then. I will wait”
Oh no. what if he doesn’t like me> I have never seen him before. What if he is nasty and mean? I always hear that boss’s is never nice. I wonder what he will be like.
The door flung open and there stood a tall shouldered man with a black velvet suit and sleek shoes and had a Bluetooth in his ear. Who else could it be but HIM! It’s the mean guy who insulted me! Og my god!
I got up from my chair and stared at him, no words came out my mouth. That’s it I will get killed today. I am definitely going home.
He stared at me angrily and looked at me like he was going to strangle me. I can’t believe it’s him. Now what do I do? What’s going to hsppen?
