SHE GOT THE JOB!

ADRIEL’S POV

I’ve barely had anything all day, I open the drawer connected to my table to grab the cookies I left here a day before. Unexpectedly, my door opens after a very loud bang.

“And do you realize that it is 2:10 O’clock”. Kyle says with a frown on his face. I look up at the wall clock in my office and realizes that Kyle isn’t wrong.

“Oh, s**t! Kyle I’m so sorry”. I apologize while packing my essentials, getting ready to leave for the conference room.

“Before you leave for the conference room, tell the secretary to make refreshments available for the meeting”. Kyle says and walks out and I follow closely behind.

(CONFERENCE ROOM)

I walk into the conference room after relaying Kyle’s message to the secretary and I notice I am the only person they have all been waiting for.

“Since the last person is here as we have all been waiting. I will proceed with today’s meeting, okay?” Kyle asks giving me a horrible look.

“Okay”. We all chorus.

“Firstly, a round of applause to Team B and to Team C for the success of the vintage themed wedding, they loved it”. He says as we all clap, murmuring in joy while he starts to point at a direction.

“Here is Brian, my younger brother. He will be working here for the main time as a model for our brand. I hope you all understand?” Kyle asks and we all reply affirmatively as some of us look at the direction Kyle keeps pointing at, and there he is!

He is got a statuesque look just like a model, he is a towering figure well over 6 feet tall, with a commanding presence that will draw attention wherever he goes to just like Kyle. His broad

shoulders and chiseled features, gives him an athletic look that is hard to ignore. Tall, dark, handsome...

“Adriel, are you here?” Lucas asks, tapping my side of the table.

“Oh, yes I am”. I say while I spring up and sit back almost immediately.

“As I was saying, we have three projects at hand. One is a wedding another is a birthday soiree, both in Nigeria. For the wedding, we were sent some details and with that we are to come up with a theme for the wedding which will take effect on the dressing of the bride, bridesmaids and her family. Of course, it will also take effect on the groom, his groomsmen and his family. So, I need theme opinions, something we have not done before. We also need to make our decisions fast so we can inform the event planner about the theme”. Kyle says while showing us some details on the projector.

“Black Tie Affair”. Jasmine shouts, feeling all high.

“Royal Treatment”. Someone from Jasmine’s team shouts also.

“Enchanted Garden”. Lucas says while searching out for something in his tab.

“Fairytale romance”. I say, smiling then Jasmine looks at me with disgust.

A light knock is placed on the door to the conference room and the door opens wide, the secretary walks in with two staffs from the company’s cafeteria. They drop every edible with them and leaves. Then the meeting continues...

“Hmm, I hear all but Adriel elaborate on yours”. Kyles says after the secretary and other staffs leaves and I have never been so happy.

“Okay, Fairytale romance is a princess-like wedding. Judging from what I am seeing on this projector, I just think it fits right it. Of course, the man is also considered because I can see they dress alike. The wedding with horse-carriage, fairy lights, flower crowns, sparklers for exit, lot of rose or peonies flowers, suits with dashing coats, princess-like wedding gown”. I explain smiling from ear to ear.

“This idea is intelligent”. Kyle asks while going through my tab that I had passed to him while explaining.

“Okay, fairytale Romance wedding it is”. Kyle adds as we clap and I clap the loudest.

“So, I’m assigning the wedding to Adriel’s and Lucas’s team”. Kyle says and people murmurs loudly.

“The birthday soiree, just an indoor party. The celebrant changes clothing four times and that’s all. Team Jasmine works on this”. Kyle says while standing up, getting ready to dismiss the meeting.

“The third project?” Someone from Lucas’s team asks.

“Yeah, that one. We will discuss about it tomorrow in our next meeting.

Everyone nods affirmatively without saying a word. The meeting secretary notifies some difficulties we noted in the last meeting. Kyle talks about them and puts the meeting to an end.

Just as I pack to leave the conference room, Kyle calls for me.

“Adriel?”. He shouts, tracing my footsteps as I move closer to him. “Yes, Kyle”. I answer.

Fuck! This man is sexy.

“Meet me in my office”. He says and leaves without waiting for a response.

I walk straight from the conference room to my office right in front of Kyle’s office to drop my belongings. I lock my door and walk right into Kyle’s office, avoiding the gazes of other staffs.

“Kyle, you called for me”. I voice out after minutes of entering his office and I didn’t even get a glance from him.

“Yeah, meet the HR Manager for your friend’s job offer letter”. He says nonchalantly.

“She got the job? SHE GOT THE JOB! Yay...” I shout and comport myself when I realize I am still in Kyle’s office.

“That’s all, you may go”. Kyle says while I leave, closing the door to his office gently.

Finally, work for the day as ended. I can’t wait to tell Bells the good news. I walk into the HR manager’s office to relay Kyle’s message and I leave for my office immediately after collecting the letter, I pack and tidy my work table, lock my door from the outside and head home.
