Tainted

1051 Words
'What am I gonna wear for this interview?'. I asked myself for like the hundredth time today. I have tried almost everything I have on and if I continue, I'm going to be late which is something I can't afford. Oh did I mention that I got an email asking me to come for an interview on the first job I applied for. Remember the one I was thinking was a scam ? yeah I'm actually going there now and I feel like I have no outfit even after Diana and I over shopped. I look into my wardrobe for one last time to see if I actually haven't tried them all on when I found the black fitted gown I got but didn't get to wear due to some issues best not mentioned.  Feeling a little self confident today, I decided to put it on and it fit perfectly, though it made me look fat, I looked smart, got my blue covered heels and put them on trying to look and be my best today "nothing's gonna spoil today for me cause I'm absolutely gonna get that job, if it's genuine though. I did  a light makeup on my face and for a moment it looks like it's a bit too much for an interview. Okay, I take back my words, I'm nowhere near as fancy as these women I'm seeing all around, it'd have been shameful to wear anything less. I knew that the logo looked fancy just didn't think it was this fancy, the receptionist looked like she just came out of a magazine, and right here at the reception, both the men and women here all look like demi gods and demi goddesses, believe me for once in my life I'm not exaggerating. "Miss Beatrice Cavanaugh, you're up". I heard and the nervousness that I was surprised I wasn't feeling came strong, making my hands all clammy and sweaty. I stod up and entered into the office only to find another overly handsome man sitting behind the desk, now making me self conscious. Ugh, why do y'all have to be so hot. "Take a seat please". He said, raising his head from his system and smiling but it's like his smile is growing wilder the more he raises his head. "Can I have your CV?". He asked still smiling but its lesser now. "Beatrice Cavanaugh, hmm you're outstanding. Why should I employ you, give me just one reason". He said and just before I oponed my mouth to respond, the door bursted open but as startled as it made me, I didn't turn back to look at what or who it was just that the man in front of me was smiling creepier than earlier. So I looked back out of curiosity, regretting it immediately I just knew all this positivity wasn' gonna end up well, been waiting for something or someone to mess up but this? This was way out of what I thought or imagined. I'm doomed. OMG I'm never getting a job all mylife. it'd be on my record permanently. What am I gonna do? Daniel Avareshl is right in front of me, what do I do? How do I deal with this awkwardness?. ther is tension in the rooma nd I can feel it, if the other man here can feel it then he is not saying anything. In a flash, Daniel moved forward and grabeed the man by his suit, drawing him out of the room but before they're gone completely, the man shouted "You're hired!". At least I get to be an employee for some minutes. I knew thar once they come back, i'll be fired so for the few minutes they were gone, I justb allowed in self pity and my stupidity. The door opened to reveal both Daniel and the other man loking like his suit was not just pulled roughly. "You start in a week". The man said but my attention was on Daniel. How can a man look so handsome. Yeah, I have seen him before, it feels like he got more attractive than the last time I did. "Thank you very much Sir". I said as I bolted out of the office desperately trying to run away from Vincent, just for me to be grabbed by the hand by none other than 'Daniel". Did I mention that the universe hates me?, well., I'm mentioning it now. He dragged my wrist, making me follow him to where I'm assuming is a quiet place where we can talk. "What happened between us, never happened , okay? I don't want anything or anyone tarnishing my image for anything". He said looking at me, normally i'd have turned to mush looking at him so close but should I say I'm both disappointed and angry. "Wasn't planning on letting anyone know, it would tarnish my image too". I said, looking straight st him and he shook his head like he didn't hear me well. "Why did you come here in the first place? Is it because you didn't get paid that night? Here take this". He said handing me some dollar notes from his wallet, and I threw the money on the floor feeling both furious and cheap. "Not everything is about your money. If you must know, I came here in search of a job and believe me, I wouldn't have come if I knew it was your company". Yeah, I put two and two together, that 'AVE' is an abbreviation for Avaresh Entreprises. Too late, right? "Yeah, whatever. It's better you take your money and go or else i'll make your working here hell. I've worked hard for this company and a silly one night stand won't take all that away from me, so stay out of my way amd be warned". He said and walked away, suddenly my knees give out and every memory I have of that night had just been tainted. I can't even have a happy story or ending even in my haed. What did I do to deserve this? . But I'm not quitting this job for anyone either, Mostly because the pay is too good and I'm done being walked all over by people. My beautiful and most treasured memory is now tainted.
