She's The Troublemaker

New York  New York New York Yaaay, what could be more exciting than having a chance to work in New York? Traveling to New York was my childhood passion and it still is. Now I am getting a chance to work at an international architectural company. I just said chance, which means that I am here for an interview . The moment I had entered this office , everyone had stopped working like they were really checking whether I was human or not. I think they had never seen a girl with a t-shirt and jeans, wearing sneakers and headphones in their elite office. I wasn't gonna change for some company, not a chance . As the last person went for the so-called interview. I sat there waiting for the next song to start . Up came my favourite song - we will rock you . I started to sing with the song as I was greeted by more awkward stares. " WE WILL WE WILL ROCK YOU " I accidentally said that aloud, as many people signed and shook their head. A tall, cocky, arrogant lady strolled towards me flicking her blonde hair. She was wearing a skimpy white all see through shirt and a mini, I mean an extra mini skirt and whopping 5-inch heels. She trained her eyes on me as she took in my appearance. A sly smile plastered her face as she checked her lists on her clipboard. " Melissa Raykar ? " she said " Yes, that would be me, " I said looking at her and smiling as sweetly as I could. This job was very dear to me, for the past 60 minutes about 50 candidates were rejected. As bubbly as I am, I found out that most of them were from Harvard, Oxford and many more big universities, compared to them I was nearly nothing, but that wasn't gonna stop me from getting this job. If I got this job, my life would become a piece of cake or like a stroll in the garden. Okay now back to reality, the cocky lady looked at me one last time as she gestured me to follow. I stood up and went through a series of corridors until we reached the last room with a polished wooden door. Rich bitches. " I wish you luck, Miss Raykar, " she said and left Mel calm down. You can do this, nail this and no more worries, Ethan's gonna be fine, you will lead a happy wonderful life. Yes. I can do this. Taking a deep breath I pushed the door open, as a panel of directors were seated. The first thing my eyes took in was the familiar green eyes which were locked with my brown ones. My mouth was slightly ajar by the amount of shock I had felt. Sitting before me, now was a guy I wish I had never met. The raven-haired devil was amused as I stumbled in and took a seat directly opposite of him. The memories of 2 days before this day came back as I fidgeted with my fingers. Flashback I and Ethan were seated at the lounge waiting for our flight. As time ticked on, Ethan was very bored and went to get something to eat . I was still reading ' Let it snow ' novel, when Ethan came running back a huge grin on his face. My sixteen-year-old brother was very excited and I was curious to know. He tossed a small thing at me and I caught it. It was a key, actually the back of the key. When I turned it over it had a Lamborghini sign. It was a freaking key for a Lamborghini car. A FREAKING LAMBORGHINI CAR. At first, I was about to jump with joy then suddenly it occurred to me how did my naive brother get this. Did he steal it? He knows I would kill him for that. Then how? As of reading my thoughts, he answered - "Mel, can you believe it a freaking guy in a suit gave me his Lamborghini for helping him ?" He said I arched an eyebrow at him. Really? He thought that I would allow him to accept such kind of gifts which cost millions. I wasn't rich but I knew my limits when it came to accepting some things and this wasn't one of those things .i narrowed my eyes at him as he took a seat opposite to me. He knew what was gonna happen - he would get a philosophical lecture. As a safety measure he kept his phone near, I case he needed to call mom. " Why did you accept it, Ethan ?" I said " Mel, there's already a ton of problems in our life. Just imagine we sell this car for millions and we lead our life happy, you wouldn't even have to work. I would able to start my own venture when I am 18. Come on sis, please " he said " As much as I would like to accept it, we can't and we won't. Are you saying me that you are gonna just give up, just because you found an easy route? This wasn't the Ethan I knew-" "Okay, I get it. I know I shouldn't have accepted it but now I have. What to do ?" He asked "Seriously your asking me that question? We return it, now come on " I stood up as Ethan strolled in front of me. We reached the place where a man was seated with a three-piece suit, sporting a Rolex watch was busy scrolling through his phone. "Hey, Mister, " I said. He turned his head and arched an eyebrow. This might be a hard one. Looking at him reminded me of the statues of Greek god beautiful yet cranky. "Yes, miss ?" He said while paying no attention towards us, he was too busy to look up from his cell. "Take this please " I jerked his hand at the front and placed the key and was about to leave when - “ I gifted this to your... Brother, I assume, here because he had helped me in my accounts and now instead of thanking me, you are shoving this up to my face?" He said "Yes, because if Ethan's gonna get a Lamborghini. He is gonna get it on his own money and own hard work . We don't need anybody's unwanted favor." I said and left. I swear I could have heard him calling me back but ain't no one gonna hear his blabbering. End of flashback “ Ahem, " he said I snapped back to reality as many gazes were fixed on me. There was a man, less than 50 with white beard and wrinkles. A woman, I assume in her 30's wearing a cat-eyed glasses. A guy, about 40 looking at me as if I was a species from another planet and last but not the least the devil himself. "Yes ?" I said "Ms.raykar, I would like to ask you... Why do you think you are capable of this job in this firm?" The woman asked " I think that I have the capability of hardworking and never giving up the spirit. Which, I think might be useful to your company " I said “ Why do you need this job ?" The man in 50's asked "It's very simple, as any other individual. I want my family to be happy ." I said “ What are your hobbies? Ms raykar " the one in 40's asked "I think it's clearly given in my résumé, which I have already submitted sir, " I said, I swear I could see the devil giving a half smile. "Hmm....you are not as stupid as most people I see, " the man said as he stood up and left. Following the suit, the woman and the other man also left. Great. Now I was stuck with the devil himself. He looked at me as if he was trying to find something behind my eyes. Haha as if that could happen. " Ms. year, I have 2 questions for you. If you are capable to answer, you get the job, otherwise you are rejected " he said "Shoot, " I said while trying to recall everything I had learned, in case he asked some theory based question. I hoped he wouldn't give me a calculation based question otherwise I would be dead. I totally sick at math and seeing a struggle in this question, I might not get the job - "Do you have a boyfriend ?" He asked To really say I was shocked, more shocked than the time I saw him. Literally, was he joking? If he was he was gonna get a bad one from me. I would kill him and ship him to the Pacific Ocean and dump his body in the Bermuda Triangle. This guy was strange, no actually he was weird. If the only Satan would get notice of this and drive him to hell immediately. I would be grateful to him. " Ms.Raykar ?"  I assume, this is a question of my personal life, sir. I don't think its necessary to answer that “ I said "Then please consider your job to be taken away, thank -" "NO. No, I don't have a boyfriend " I said. He was already making my life living hell. Satan? Was he one of your minion or something, because he sure does seem like. Again the glaring game had started, I wasn't backing out of this. After what felt like an eternity he said - "Good " Was he indicating that if I did have a boyfriend I would get distracted? I guess a lot of his staff had one and maybe were not concentrating on their god damn work. That's the reason he was enquiring and - "Your next question is ..... Who am I, Ms. Raykar?" He said. Omg, who was this guy? Wow, Mel, be assured to lose a chance of an awesome job because of a simple thing that you didn't know who your future boss is. How could I have not seen the name of this guy? God help me. “ Y-You are the managing director o-or I mean the CEO of this company ?" What should have come out as a statement, came out as a question instead. "You may leave now Ms.Raykar, " he said and got up from his seat. I lowered my head in shame as I followed him out. Great Mel, you lost a job to the easiest question asked in the history of interviews. I thought I had seen him Just as I was about to go out of the conference hall he said- " Please do collect the schedule from Miss. Jones, tomorrow at 9 sharp, not a minute late Ms.Raykar " he said and left At first, I didn't get him then realization hit me so hard, I toppled over. I had bloody freaking got the job, even after giving a completely lame answer. I rushed outside to see Ethan anxiously waiting for me. "Ethan " I called out "Mel, what happened? Did you screw it? Don't tell me you did. Who's the boss? Is he cranky ?-" "Wait for a second, already. Yeah, I got the job " I could have sworn I heard someone falling off their chair. "Yes, Who's the boss?" He asked and literally my face fell. "The guy I gave the Lamborghini key back, " I said "Bloody hell, small world isn't it?" "Now shut up we need to collect some schedules and go.” I said
