CHAPTER THREE

716 Words
AMELIA ROSE'S POV I quickly followed the direction the receptionist gave me. She had told me to take the second elevator because the first elevator was strictly for the CEO. I looked at the first elevator as I walked past it. “What an arrogant CEO,” I muttered. Why would a CEO need a whole elevator for himself? But that wasn't my business. I was here to work and make money. I quickly entered the second elevator and pressed the button for the floor I was going to. As the elevator went up, I took a deep breath. I was nervous, but I was also excited. I really hoped I would get this job. When the elevator doors opened, I stepped out. I looked around and was surprised by how beautiful the place was. Everything looked so clean and organized. As I stood there looking around, I noticed a young and beautiful girl dressed in a nurse's uniform walking toward me. She greeted me with a cheerful smile. “Are you Amelia?” I smiled and nodded. “Yes.” She smiled again. “I'm Cassandra. The matron asked me to bring you to her. She's in her office. Please, follow me.” “Okay, thank you.” I followed Cassandra as we walked down the hallway. This place was really beautiful. I couldn't stop looking around. Everything looked so perfect. I silently prayed that I would get the job. I really needed it. After a short walk, Cassandra stopped in front of an office. She knocked on the door. “Come in,” a voice answered. Cassandra opened the door. “The nurse you asked for is here,” she said. The matron looked at me and smiled. “Come in, Amelia.” I walked inside. “Good morning, ma.” “Good morning. Please, have a seat.” I sat down. She looked through my documents and then started asking me some questions. I answered every question correctly. I was nervous at first, but as the interview continued, I became more comfortable. She asked me questions about nursing and my previous experience. I answered everything as best as I could. After asking me several questions, she finally put my documents down. “Alright, Amelia. You can resume tomorrow.” I almost couldn't believe what I had heard. “Really?” She smiled. “Yes. You can resume tomorrow.” I smiled widely. “Thank you so much, ma.” “You're welcome. Make sure you come early tomorrow.” “I will.” I stood up and thanked her again before leaving the office. I couldn't stop smiling. Finally! I had gotten a job. I was so happy. After leaving the hospital, I headed home. I couldn't wait to tell my best friend everything. As soon as I got home, I picked up my phone and called her. She was still in Korea. She answered almost immediately. “Hello, Amelia!” “Hey!” “You sound so happy. What happened?” I laughed. “I got the job!” “What?” “Yes! I got the job!” She screamed happily through the phone. “Oh my God! I'm so happy for you!” We talked for a while, and I told her everything that had happened that day. I told her about the hospital. I told her about the interview. And, of course, I told her about the handsome stranger I had met earlier. My best friend immediately started laughing. “Wait, you said the guy was handsome?” I laughed. “Yes, he was very handsome.” “So you noticed his face even though you were angry with him?” “Of course I noticed! I'm not blind.” She laughed again. “Then I'm going to call him your handsome stranger.” I shook my head while laughing. “Fine. Call him whatever you want.” We continued talking about everything that had happened during my day. I was happy. For the first time in a long while, I felt like things were finally starting to work out for me. I had a new job. I was going to start working tomorrow. And maybe, just maybe, my life in New York was finally going to get better.
