CHAPTER 1
"Oh Lord please help me get this job" a slim lady of average height with long dark hair said while she was writing an email to send to a tech firm. Her name is Vanessa Kent. She is in her mid twenties and she is applying for a job at her dream tech firm. Vanessa Kent lost her parents to a ghastly motor accident after she graduated from college. Every since then, she has lived with her best friend and loyal confidant, Alice Brice, who is also in her mid twenties. Alice works for a big-time law firm and so lives a comfortable lifestyle. "Do not worry Vanessa, you will get the job. You are the best fit for it" Alice said. "Thank you Alice. I really appreciate all your encouragement and care you have always shown me." Vanessa said "You really don't have to say thank you all the time we are friends and this is the least we can do for each other." Alice said with a smile on her face "awwwn" Vanessa said as she stretched her arms to hug Alice. "I will be leaving for the office now take care" Alice said as she hurriedly left "okay have the best day" Vanessa said as she closed the door.
"It's been a week since I submitted my email for the application and I have still not gotten any response from them yet" Vanessa said to Alice with a gloomy face. "Chill dearest, I know they will soon get back to you" "okay", it was 10pm. She and Alice were both watching a movie together on Vanessa's personal computer when Vanessa received a beep message. She reluctantly checked it. When she saw the message she screamed "Finally! I have been invited for the interview" "Oh wow, congratulations, when is the interview". Alice asked with much excitement. "It is next week on Tuesday at 9am", Vanessa stated with so much joy. "Okay, that's great you have four days to prepare. I am so happy for you Vanessa. Yes, I know you will definitely get this job", Alice said to Vanessa, "Yes, I really have to prepare for this interview and with faith I know I will get this job".
The day for the interview had finally reached. Vanessa was both excited and. She woke up very early to take her bath and properly get ready before leaving the house. At exactly 8:03am Vanessa was ready to leave. "Wow you look stunning". Alice said "I know right, I hope nobody outshines me there". Vanessa said with beams of smiles, "Do not forget to be confident and also remain positive. You are the best. Always remember that" "Yes I will". Alice said, "I wish you the best, dearest."
It took Vanessa almost five minutes to board a taxi. "Hey taxi, I am heading to Style tech firm." Please, that will be $17 ma'am". The taxi driver said "Okay, let's get going". As soon as she got to the firm, the taxi stopped and she went down and paid the taxi driver. "Who are you here to see? The security officer at the gate asked Vanessa "I am here for an interview". She boldly said "where is the proof of that?". The security officer asked "Here it is". Vanessa said as she showed him the email inviting her for the interview. "Okay you can go in, ma'am". He said "thank you". When she got to the reception, she met the receptionist. "Good morning. I am here for an interview. Please could you direct me to where I should be." Vanessa said to the receptionist. "Good morning, enter the front door on your right. That's where you will wait till you are called upon. What is your name, ma'am". The receptionist answered "Okay thank you very much, my name is Vanessa Kent". She replied with a smile, "alright"
When Vanessa got to the office she was directed to. She saw two men already sitting. "Perhaps they are also here for the interview."Vanessa thought to herself" Good morning, are you also here for the interview?" Vanessa asked the men. "Yes, are you also here for the interview". One of them answered "Okay, I am also here for the interview. I wish you the best" Vanessa said to him and he smiled at her. It had already been an hour and thirty minutes since Vanessa had been waiting. They were interviewing the second man and there were three others after her, "Vanessa Kent". A man from the office called out "I am here", Vanessa quickly replied. At this point Vanessa became really nervous but then she remembered what her best friend told her "Vanessa Kent you are the best" Vanessa said to herself as she entered the office when she got into the office she saw three men sitted around the table out of the three men a particular man caught her attention he wore a very lovely suit from the suit his abbs were noticable he was quite built, and handsome too, he had a really nice haircut with his full beards that really suited his face she couldn't really say much about his height because he was sitting. "Good morning gentlemen" she said "good morning you can have your seat" one of the men said "thank you sir" she said as she gently sat down "we have gone through your curriculum vitae and we realized that you graduated with a good result and you also have a reasonable experience in this field" one of the men said "yes sir"she replied with a wide smile "why do you want to work with us" thean whom she crushed on finally spoke he had a deep voice "it has always been my dream to work here and I know that I have the potential to do an excellent job here" she replied with so much confidence which was visibly shown in her facial gesture and voice "alright you can leave we will get back to you" The man said with a stern look "okay sir I wait in anticipation for your message".
"How was your interview", Alice asked Vanessa as soon as she entered the living room. She had just come back from work. "it was fine. I really hope I get the job", Vanessa replied, "that's great. Alice said "how was work today." Vanessa asked Alice "it was fine but I really had a stressful day" "sorry dear" Vanessa replied.
"Oh my God! I got the job. Take a look at the email", Vanessa exclaimed in excitement as she jumped. "Wow, congratulations Vanessa. I am so happy for you. I always believed in you" Alice said, as she tightly hugged her,
