FRIGHTENED LOVE

Interview

Sila was standing in front of her miniature wardrobe sorting out what to wear.

She brought out one of the gray color gown on her hanger.

“mom is this okay”?

Her mother was sitting on the bed helping her to choose a more corporate dress.

The color looks too lackluster

I think you should go for something lighter.

Sila already getting frustrated.

Ahhh…

when I'm I ever going to find something more suitable, I don't even have enough dress I'm not a fashion freak.

You don't have to be a fashion freak to look presentable for an interview just look smart remember, “your dress addresses you”.

Sila has always wanted to work all her life, but her parents kept on restricting her, but this time they were happy to let her go for an interview.

I think you should wear this, her mum brought out a purple dress and black skinny long skirt, I think you should try this out she said holding them to her body to see if it blends.

Perfect you look more like a princess now, Barisi said after Sila had worn the dress.

“Dad I'm leaving now how do I look”?

Sila went to her father's room right after dressing up.

Ethan Chuckled as he glanced at his daughter, You look gorgeous my princess. You are definitely going to have the job.

No one can repudiate having such a smart looking lady in their company.

He couldn't stop giggling at her good appearance.

Sila was regaled by her father's praises

Okay, who is seeing me off?

“I will of course” Ethan stood up from the plastic chair he was sitting near the window peeking at the beauty of the world.

I've been waiting here for you to come out.

Barisi said viewing Sila and her father strolling towards the exit door where she was standing.

Ethan beam at his wife, is it a crime if we see her off together?

Sila Chuckled “I wonder ooh”

Barisi open the door widely for them to pass. Let's all go, then she said, slimming the door behind her.

Their house is like a mile away from the bus stop, the family all strolled towards the express, Ethan and Barisi held Sila's hand while she was standing in their middle shivering at the refreshing zephyr.

Sila entered a taxi in the bus top and waved her parents goodbye

take care, they both said in unison as they pivot gradually.

Sila was sitting quietly in the back sit, lost in the rhythm of her music as the air pod sang louder in her ears.

Thinking about the interview made her a little nervous as she drifted away from the music and peeked through the window.

Blurred passed in a whirl of light and shadows in the city outside the window

viewing the beauty of nature, she thought of how the job could change her life in the most positive way and smile with the feeling of procurement.

Sila could feel the hectic energy of the company immediately she entered inside.

As she was walking through the company's passage, she saw Professionals taping through the laptops while some were hunched overbooks.

She was counting her steps in amusement at how mega the company is.

Even if she had heard a lot about this place, she never considered it to be this amazingly beautiful.

Everything was well furnished, and luxurious. Sila couldn't help but gasp at the feeling that they might not consider employing her in such a corporate giant company, but her confidence made her not to stagger too much at the thought.

Hello, good morning

A lady came from the opposite direction and greeted her with a smile.

Good morning Sila smiled back at her.

Are you Sila Ethan? She asked confused

Yes I am. She cleared her confusion.

Okay come with me, the lady pivoted as Sila followed her.

Sila sighted a woman relaxing on an ergonomic chair, immediately the lady opened the door, directing her to go in.

Her mean gesture frightened her.

Good morning ma"

She greeted dumbfounding

The woman looked at her from head to toe and solemn at her

"Good morning Miss, “Have your sit”

Sila brought out her documents, shipping into the chair.

Here are my credentials' ma she gave it to her in an obeisances gesture and glance into her eyes.

The woman raised her eyebrows

running her eyes into the slips

Hmm interesting, she turned her gaze to Sila

First Class graduate? She asked, smiling at her.

Sila nodded in obeisance, yes ma.

Okay, I'll company will give you feedback by Monday if you don't get feedback that means you didn't get the job, the woman said after asking Sila a couple of interviewing questions.

Sila stood up from the chair… Okay, thank you ma'am

She headed towards the exit.

A few days letter, Sila was in the kitchen making breakfast for her parents when a call hit her phone up.

Eeeeshhhhh she screamed in so much excitement that scared her parents as they promptly dashed to the kitchen.

What is it?

Ethan asked in Bewilderment.

She asked anticipating.

Ahhh! Sila, you scare the heel out of me her mum lower her tone.

Sila gesticulated, ooohh sorry mama, I was just too exited.

You got the job! Ethan yelled with so much excitement.

Yes! Sila scream it out.

Ethan cackled softly,

I think this calls for celebration Barisi said as she rushed to the parlor to get the bottle of wine that was remaining from their previous house party.

She raised the class of wine,

Cheers to Sila's job!

Cheers, Ethan and Sila said in unison as they all drank in celebration of Sila's new level.

As the clock ticked pass midnight, Sila tossed and turned in her bed, unable to find a comfortable position.

Tomorrow marked the beginning of her new job and the excitement mingled

With nervousness kept her mind racing.

The prospect of possibilities and new challenges filled her with anticipation but also brought a wave of anxiety in her mind.

As the first hint of the dawn began to creep through the curtains, Sila felt a sense of relief washed over her as she promptly jumped off bed to get ready for work.
