When Xia Lin had a job interview from the ceo,what she didn’t know it was her!.Do you think that love you once had could come back to you?.

Gun-Ho came back to Yangju and went back to his work at Bangil Gas again.
Once sales were made, Gun-Ho issued electronic tax invoices and added earnings and expenses to <Daily Earnings and Expenses> table in Excel, and then reported it to the owner.
 
Gun-Ho made sure to collect all receipts of every business expense incurred and attached them with glue to the back of an expense form he had purchased from a stationary store in order to properly document them. If there was a client with an outstanding balance for LP gas, Gun-Ho would make a collection phone call to that client as well. He also ran errands for the owner.
"Years of my life will go by like this?"
Gun-Ho was barely making a living; he felt anxious about getting old without saving money.
"It's Wednesday and I don't hear anything from that company in Asan which I had an interview with."
Gun-Ho was constantly checking his smartphone to see if there was any text message from the company. He increased the ringtone of his phone to make sure he didn't miss any calls. There was no phone call, let alone any text message.
"I don't think I got the job. Let's just move on; it is a lost cause. So many smart people are out there. I can't compete with them with my rubbish work experience and qualification. I just have to appreciate the opportunity for having a job interview with them."
Friday came around after Wednesday and Thursday. Gun-Ho gave up on getting a position in the company in Asan. He once again started looking through the newspaper classified section and WorkNet; however, there was no job advertisement which drew Gun-Ho's attention.
"The companies posting a bookkeeper job opening in a newspaper classified section will hire a female, not me. If they hire a male for the job, that's probably because the position is half bookkeeping and half irrelevant chores."
After work, Gun-Ho usually surfed the internet on his laptop in dim light or he went to the PC room in the neighborhood. He felt like he was falling so much farther behind in life compared to his high school friends, which made him feel depressed.
"Won-Chul Jo who is now married should be doing fine, shouldn't he? Byung-Tae Hwang who is working in a research facility of a startup company in Pangyo is getting married soon. He posted about his wedding on Facebook but didn't personally inform me. He could easily find my phone number by contacting Won-Chul or the others."
Gun-Ho drank soju almost every other day, and that increased his alcohol tolerance.
"I am destined to live in the countryside. My life is f*cked up. I have ShinWangJaeWang fate? ShinWangJaeWang my a*s."
 
It had been more than two weeks since Gun-Ho had a job interview with the company in Asan. The memory of the interview was fading away when he received a phone call from that company, a very unexpected one at that.
"Mr. Gun-Ho Goo? How are you? I am the manager of YS Tech in Asan."
"Oh, hi. This is Gun-Ho Goo."
"I am sorry that we took a long time to contact you. You have been hired as our bookkeeper. Can you start on the 1st of next month?"
Gun-Ho came to his senses by this unexpected and sudden phone call.
"Oh, of course, sure. I… I can."
"You have only five days left until the 1st of next month. Can you manage to quit the current job and start a new job with us within five days?"
"Of course, of course. I can certainly do that!"
"Let me tell you then what to bring on your first day of work. You might want to get a pen and a paper."
"Yes, I am ready."
Gun-Ho was so perplexed that he dropped his cell phone while looking for a pen and a paper, and stumbled over the computer power cord.
"You should bring a resident registration, a resident registration abstract showing the status of your military service duty, your highest school diploma, Consent to Collect and Use Personal Data, Identity Assurance Statement, and a work experience certificate letter from your current employer. I will send the forms for the Consent to Collect and Use Personal Data and Identity Assurance Statement to the email address indicated on your resume."
"Okay. I will prepare all those documents and bring them on my first day of work!"
"You can come by 8 AM on the 1st next month. I will see you then."
"Thank you. Thank you."
Gun-Ho felt so grateful to be hired by this company that he repeated "thank you" twice.
"I got it! I got the job!"
Gun-Ho clapped. He felt like he could fly.
"By the way, why did they call me just now? They said they would contact me by last Wednesday."
Gun-Ho sat on the chair and started thinking.
"I guess that the person they hired decided not to work with them, so they hired me instead as a substitute. Of course, I can't be their first choice. Well, they hired me anyway. Let's move to Asan."
Gun-Ho stopped by the Eunhyeon Township Office to get the resident registration and the resident registration abstract on the way to work after collecting bills.
"I can get my college diploma online, but what about the work experience certificate letter? There is no such thing in Bangil Gas. Well, I can find some samples on the internet and make one for me."
After he returned to the office, Gun-Ho drafted a work experience certificate letter referring to some examples he found on the internet.
"I need the boss' stamp to officially seal this letter… I have his stamp for the tax invoices stamping purpose; should I just use it?"
Gun-Ho thought he still should ask the owner for it.
"When he comes back from the gas pipe repairing work, I will carefully inform him."
A little after five o'clock, the owner came back to the office, looking exhausted.
"A*sholes! They tried to bargain for the repairing cost. I should have just left without fixing their pipes. Sh*t!"
The owner slumped down in his chair, looking really tired. Gun-Ho had to tell the owner that he would quit the job, but he couldn't because the owner seemed very tired.
"Gee, it is already half past five. Goo Jooim, you can go home."
Gun-Ho hesitated and the owner looked at him with a question mark on his face.
"What's the matter? Do you have something you want to tell me?"
"Umm… I am so sorry to tell you that I think I have to move to the city where my parents are."
"Why? Because your father is in the hospital?"
"My parents want me to come, and they are old now…"
"Hmmm…"
The owner looked very uncomfortable.
"I will have to find someone again. I really liked you here."
"Well, I've been thinking, and I think your wife can handle the work. You can save money that way."
"My wife? She doesn't even know how to work with a computer."
"She just needs to get the knack of it. She will become better and faster at the job after one or two months of practice."
"I know I can save money… But she always tries to argue with me whenever she is here in the office. That is the problem."
"Haha. That's because she likes you a lot."
"Well, I will have to think about it."
"I will work until the end of this month then."
"You leave that early?"
"My parents are pressing me."
"Oh well, what can I do about it."
"And once I move to the city where my parents live in, I might need a work experience certificate letter from this company."
"A work experience certificate letter? I've never done it before."
"I already drafted the letter. I just need your stamp. You can use the same stamp we use for tax invoices."
"Really? Then you do what you have to do."
"Thank you."
"Go home before it gets dark."
"Thank you."
Gun-Ho walked out of the office and turned his head to look behind him.
"Bangil Gas. I have so many good memories of this factory. The boss and his wife are good-natured people. Once I become successful, I will come and visit them."
It was getting dark; Gun-Ho drove to the Gwangjeok Township Office area where his room was located. He called the landlord to give him the notice to vacate his room.

This is the story of a poor young man whose poverty even shreds apart their family willing to climb his way through society and into the top. A very realistic novel that moves away from fantasy and sci-fi and focuses solely on the issues of society and life.

Alex was standing in front of a tall building here is the Dalmia Corporation head office, it is a well-known company in the clothing, real estate and the gaming world. Dalmia Corporation has branches all over the world and over thirty thousand employees.

Alex came here to work in the PR department. Alex is good with people and also know many languages but the only problem is that he has no proof regarding his educational qualification. 

Alex does not where he is from, he has no memories of his life prior to 9 months ago. All he knows is waking up in the hospital with Martha and George beside him. It turns out one night when Martha was coming home the blood covered Alex suddenly came in front of her car and was struck by her, since then he has been in coma for nearly a month. When they found him there was no identification with him and on top of that after waking up he lost his memories, Martha and George decided to adopt him and named him Alex.

Since he had no educational proof he did many courses but was not able to get a good job. But this time is different, this time he has something which his father gave him. He can only use that as a last resort.

When Alex arrived at the reception and was inquiring about the interview details all the ladies were sizing him up on the other hand the men were ready to pounce on him and shred him to pieces.

The receptionist was a fair skinned lady with a height of 5'6", she was blooming in the right  areas.
She was dressed in white shirt and formal skirt, one could easily see some shades of black on her chest, which was bulging so much as if ready to tear the shirt and come out.

Alex: "Hello I am Alex I came for interview for the post in PR department"

Receptionist (Day dreaming about Alex): "--"

Alex: "Excuse me"

Receptionist (Drooling while thinking of Alex): "--"

Alex didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he slightly shakes the receptionist.

Ahhhh!!

Receptionist: "Sorry you were asking something?" she replied while blushing.

Alex: "Where should I go for the job interview?"

Receptionist: "Well the PR department is on the 4th floor you can go there and ask someone"

Alex: "thank you"

Receptionist: "Ah! C… Ca… Can I... I... have your number?" she asked hesitatingly.

Alex: "--"

All the nearby ladies started laughing at the receptionist.

"How can she suddenly ask someone for their number on the first meeting?" 

"She must be desperate"

"Vixen is trying to use her charms to seduce the guy, hmpf!!"

"It's not her fault the guy is too handsome"

"Humph! What's so good about him, I am much better than him" (snorts a man)

"I am at a good post still why won't girls go out with me?"

Receptionist: "Sorry it was rude of me I shouldn't ha..."

Interrupting her

Alex: "If I get this job then let me treat you to a meal, so beautiful lady can I have your number?"

Getting the receptionist out of this awkward position Alex replied with a warm smile.

Ever since he woke up Alex has tried his best to stay polite and not get in any kind of violence, so when he heard the remarks of everyone he tried to keep his cool and help her out.

Receptionist: "Are you sure?"

Alex: "Why? You don't want to give me?"

Receptionist: "No! It's XXX-XXX-XXXX" 

Alex: "Btw I am Alex"

Receptionist: "Oh! I am Susan"

Alex: "Nice to meet you, well I should get going otherwise I won't be able to treat you"

Susan: "Yeah, sorry I took a lot of you time"

Alex: "No problem, bye have a nice day"

Susan: "All the best for interview", she shouts from behind.

Alex (smiles)

Soon Alex arrives at the 4th floor and after asking someone reaches the room for interview. Seeing the long line for the interview Alex tried his best not to feel down cast. After about 2 hours it is finally Alex's turn for the interview. As soon as Alex entered the room he was greeted by 5 men sitting across a table in formals chatting among themselves. Seeing him entering they stop their discussion but soon are in awe, seeing the demeanor of Alex they can't help but think "Is he a movie star or something?" but being in this profession for so long they soon composed themselves.

Alex: "Good morning gentlemen"

"Good morning"

Alex: "Sir, these are my qualifications"

"Hmmm"

"Why is there no record of your graduation?"

Alex: "Sir, I had an accident recently and I don't remember my past but I was adopted by a couple 
and these are the courses I had in past 9 months"

"Well to do so many courses in such a short time is good"

"But we can't hire someone like that, if word were to go out the company's reputation will be tarnished"

"Young man keeping aside the fact that you are knowledgeable give us a good reason as to why we should hire you?"

Alex: "Sir you can ask me anything related to work I will try my best not to disappoint you"

"You also know we don't have so much time and we can't be unfair to other candidates too"

Seeing things going the wrong way Alex can't help but think of the envelope his father gave it to him, forwarding the envelope to them. The envelope was sealed and had a peculiar marking over it which Alex was not able to figure out.

Alex: "I hope this is reason good enough"

"What is this?"

Alex: "I don't know my father asked me to give it to you if I don't get the job on my own"

As soon as their eyesight fell on the marking of the envelope all 5 of them were covered in cold sweat. After going through the contents of the letter they sighed in relief and couldn't help but look at the young man in front of them with reverence.

Alex: "Well?", he asked nervously

"We can hire you but first you have to go through a trial period of 3 months"

Being hired by just giving the envelope, Alex could not help but wonder about his old man's work.
Despite being with the couple for about a year Alex is not clear about the work George does as he is often busy not returning home daily.

"You will be assigned to a team to observe how the work is done, after that we will think about assigning you a permanent position"

Alex: "Thank you very much sir"

"You can join from tomorrow"

"All the best"

Alex: "Then I will take my leave, have a good day"

After Alex left the 5 gentlemen relaxed and starting discussing among themselves

"How can he get the recommendation letter from him?"

"Didn't he say, he got this from his father"

"You mean to say!!"

"Most probably"

"Anyways we have already recruited him on trial period and seeing his nature I don't think there will 
be any problem"

Unaware of the ruckus he has caused Alex walked to wards the elevator but as soon as the elevator door opened

Bam!!
Aahhhh!!

3rd person POV:

The air in Yorkshire was inevitably a bit special. For both muggles and the wizards. In a small village in south, there laid numerous fields and tiny, little cottages. The folks who resided there wouldn't let their sheep graze on a full moon. 
They heard many howls. Some of their sheep go missing on every full moon day. The folks were scared and never stepped out in nights during that time. Who didn't know of Mrs. John's sheep? The poor things were torn apart.
Since then, there was this unspoken rule to never come out on a full moon. They recollected nothing at all, what happened. Hence they were a little afraid. Afraid of getting cursed.
And Remus John Lupin cannot be anymore thankful for that. This way, he didn't injure any innocent lives.
He sighed and went to his home. It was a tumbledown, semi-derelict cottage. But this was all he had. And he was fine with it.
Living in poverty was not a problem for Lupin. He was… accustomed to it. He had to. Being a werewolf, he couldn't get good jobs. And due to his sickness after every full moon, those hard earned jobs would lost too.
And it happened once again. He lost his job. Again. He didn't know what to do. There were extremely few places that were willing to hire him. And he was kicked out from almost every one of them. The underground had plenty of offers to him. But he didn't prefer them. He'd rather suffer in poverty than to do something that was against his morals.
He wondered why the fate was so cruel to him.
There was a knock on his cracked windows. It was an owl. The one he didn't recognize. Only few people remembered him. And it was not Christmas either. So a letter to him was rare.
He accepted the letter from the owl. The owl was peculiar. It didn't wait till he read the letter. It just flew away after it had given him the letter.
It was a good thing anyway He didn't have owl treats with him.
He examined the letter. It was a pure white envelope with a golden flower seal he knew nothing about. Quite different from the usual parchment. Curiously, he read the letter.
[
To Remus John Lupin,
The Haunted Cottage, Blue fields, South Yorkshire, England.

Dear Mister Lupin,
It is my pleasure and honour to inform you that you have been recommended to work with Magnolia. 
If you are interested in working with us, please visit your nearest Magnolia branch for the interview by 2nd June, evening.
Further details will be divulged by the supervisor when you reveal this letter. 
Yours Sincerely,
Regina Silvers.
(Head of training and recruitment, Fiore.)
]
Lupin blinked and read the letter again. He checked for any charms on it. There was nothing wrong with it. 
He felt this was all very unreal. Someone recommended him. To work in Magnolia. It felt like a dream.
Because he knew it wasn't likely to happen in reality. But it was true. He could just hope this was not an elaborate prank on him.
If all of this was real, he would need to get this job. Especially if it's from Magnolia. The place he didn't even dare to step in.
Frankly speaking, Magnolia was a store. But not the mundane ones. It's a store which sold nearly everything. From potions to ancient spells, everything could be brought for a price. Except the illegal goods, most probably.
Many people were skeptical but they were soon flabbergasted by it.
Because the store remain a huge mystery. No one knew it's owner(s). But that didn't prevent anyone from going there. It had every single thing they needed. 
There were many rumours about that place. Like how the people who tried to do anything funny were taught a brutal lesson. Like how it had things which didn't exist anywhere else. Like how it even provided many services. Like how it had branches all over the world, etc.
And how it offered 'tickets' to a place called 'Fiore' which was even more magical. It was something that every pureblood sought after.
And Remus got an opportunity to work there. He didn't know what they wanted from him. But he would be regretting it if he didn't give his best shot.

***


Lupin arrived at Leeds. He wore the best set of robes he had. He went towards the Golden Acre Park and sat on a bench with a large Magnolia, similar to the seal on the letter carved on it. And he disappeared from the place and reappeared in front of a store. It was titled MAGNOLIA. It was his first time coming here.
He heard many rumours about this place. But there were no one present.
There was even a closed sign hung on the doors. As he feared, he was played.
As he was about to walk away in disappointment, the letter shone brightly and the lights engulfed him.
Moments later, he was sitting in a nice chair. He noticed there were many people other than him, inside this massive room which contained many chairs. Maybe few thousands.
Few people like him just appeared and the others looked like they've been waiting for a long time.
He decided to wait. After some time, there was a flash next to him. A brunette appeared beside him. She looked comparatively young. She looked at the man and asked awkwardly.
"Um… Hello? Do you have any idea where we are?" She asked with an accent he thought was American.
"Did you receive the Letter?"
"Yeah."
"Then please read it once again. It has some details."
The brunette nodded thankfully and read her letter. It had a note which asked to wait till all the recipients of the letter have arrived.
"Thank you for that."
"Your most welcome."
"Um… I know it sounds meaningless, but are you also here for the interview?"
"Yes. I am."
"Are you, English?"
"From Yorkshire." 
"So you came from England then, huh."
"Yes, I do."
"Oh dear!"
"Anything wrong with that?"
"No… nothing. It's just, I'm from New Jersey, America. I never expected to see an English wizard here."
"You can see all the wizards around the world here."
"Sigh… So the rumours that Magnolia had branches all over the world was true then."
"It seems to be."
There was a strained silence yet again. They both just stayed quiet. They were nervous, too.
Suddenly, there was a table in front of them. It had some food laid on it.
Both of them looked at each other and checked their letters once again. Nothing was there in it.
Instead, there was a little note saying 'Refreshments' on the table.
It was the same with everyone. All had them.
Remus looked at the food on the table. There were some pumpkin pastries, cauldron cakes and his favourite, chocolates.
He grabbed some and started to eat like everyone. The woman beside him too, started eating a serving apple pie.
"What are those?" She asked curiously. 
Remus politely stated all of them, and she did the same. Apparently, they both possessed a sweet tooth. The American Witch introduced herself.
"I'm Chloe Smith. You can call me Chloe."
"Nice to meet you, Chloe. I'm Remus Lupin, call me Remus if you like."
They both chatted for a little. It was uncommon. To meet international wizards or witches unless you have a travel permit.
Chloe was a young witch who worked as an enchanter in New Jersey. She resigned the job and then after sometime, she received the letter too.
They talked about many things. Remus told her about Hogwarts, and she said about Ilvermorny, etc.
After a few hours, the seats were full.
There was an announcement from the centre of the hall.
A huge screen appeared. It revealed the face of a middle aged woman. The woman started speaking.
"I thank all the Wizards and Witches who have come here on our request. I'm Regina Silvers."

"It would be so nice...if we could meet each other once again."
Mia died due to a mistake. It wasn't her fault, not any human's at least.
So as a compensation, she is given the ability of a 'Pancosmic Traveler'
Meaning that she would be reincarnating as she completes her missions...
But is that what she really wants?
Not everyone can leave their past behind.

[the plot is currently in Potterverse.
Mia already completed her missions in Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Fairy Tail and Hunger Games]

Note: This is just a fanfic. I do not own Harry Potter or any other works.

Bella was not sure of what she was doing right then. That moment, when Aunt Sussy compelled, she had decided to give it a go. But right now, at the entrance of the huge building whose address was given on the notification, she was unsure. It would be so unfair to chase her dreams when everything was a mess. She was in so much of need of money, and she wondered why someone would be willing to provide free education and money to a total stranger. She has heard about rich people providing charity for getting fame, and she wondered whether this person was one such. 
"Anyways, I reached till the doorstep. Even though there is no chance for me to get selected, I'll just give it try." Bella told herself. She knew everything in this world happens only if they got connections. Even petty jobs require someone to recommend, so that a person can get the job. So, for this place too, a person might be already fixed. An interview might just be a routine procedure.
She reached on correct time, but couldn't see anyone waiting for an interview, so she enquired at the reception.
"Please go to the manager's room. It's the first room when you go right." The receptionist said. She looked very young and pretty and had thick lipsticks because of which she was careful in parting away with her lips. Hence, it gave Bella a little difficulty in catching up the sentence.
Bella finally managed to reach a room where 'Manager' was return in the top of entrance. She knocked on the door and since she cannot hear, she took the bold step to open the door. There was two men, one on the chair whose face Bella couldn't see since he was faced with his back towards her and the other man jerked as he saw the door open suddenly.
"I did not ask you to come." The man who was standing said to Bella.
"Sorry! I cannot hear. I thought you might have asked me to enter. I ve already checked myself at the reception." Bella asked apologetically with her signs, hoping the person would understand.
"mmm… you are for the interview, right?" He asked seriously and pulled out a chair beside the other man who was still turned on the other side busy with something. He then stood up and walked towards another door which was in front of him swiftly. Bella wondered if she had seen him somewhere, even though she only saw a portion of his back. She shook the unwanted thoughts and focused on the current scenario.
"Yes." Bella nodded.
"Okay. Tell me. What's your dream. If we provide you with money and other facilities, what is it that you would like to become?" He questioned.
"My dream was to become a doctor, but with my disabilities, I think becoming a doctor would be almost impossible. So if I am given the opportunity, I would like to become a nurse, which I think, if I try my best, I can manage." Bella gave her reply.
"mmm… For that, you should promise to complete, within the course time, and study with full dedication. Moreover, you should promise to not do any other jobs at that time, such as part time jobs, or anything, that can tire you and prevent you from getting good results, are you okay with that?"
He was staring at Bella hard. It was as if Bella's answer meant life to him.
"But sir…" was Bella's expression and she was about to reject the said offer, when the man suddenly spoke,
"We promise to provide you with Thousand dollars per month for your expenses." Bella was open mouthed and she forgot what she was going to say.
"Its not like you got the job. It's only an interview!" Bella told herself.
"Is it okay for you?" The person asked with an anxious look.
"It's a huge sum of money. I would be grateful to you if you give me a chance. I promise to work hard and pay you back once I…" Bella was still struggling with her signs when the man opposite her stood up.
"You are selected. You have to do as you promised. Boss is a very impatient person. If he finds you are not following his requests, he may get very angry." He spoke in a serious tone.
Bella still couldn't believe what she heard.
She got selected! But how? Everything went so smooth and simple and there was nobody to recommend her. So how come she got selected? Bella was in utter shock. She has attended many interviews in the past, but cleared none of it, mainly because of her disability. And so, this time she couldn't believe..!
A tear started rolling out from her eye corner, and she swiftly stopped it from dropping to prevent from getting embarrassed.
"Can I meet your Boss? I really wish to thank him! He is really a god to help poor people like me. Where can I…" Bella was midway in conveying her sentence when the man interrupted again.
"No one is allowed to meet the boss in person. He is a private person. If you wish, you can pass a massage in the form of a letter to me, I'll pass it over to him. You can start school tomorrow. I'll search for the best nursing school and intimate you. You can go now." The man looked totally relieved after dealing this interview.
It was the one case that Boss ordered directly to him. He himself had only met Boss only once when he came for inspection a few days back. He appeared to be a strict man. And yesterday night, he got a call from him, asking him to learn sign language within a night, and interview a girl, and convince her in getting whatever she wanted.
"Was he crazy? What is the need to hold an interview for this? He can directly ask the girl what she wants and give her all those things. Why to eat my brain?" He wondered. He was really scared if the girl would reject to succumb to Boss's orders, but somehow he managed it. 
He was deadly scared to carry out the interview when his Boss was sitting right next to him, but he was having no other way as the girl came without any notice. His Boss was just giving him instructions and they had asked the receptionist to give the girl wrong direction, till they could prepare, but the girl seem to lose her way and reach the correct destination. 
He soon realized that Boss wished to hide his identity from the girl as he had escaped without showing his face, as soon as he got a chance. 
The girl quickly wrote something on a paper beside her and handed it over to him.
"Thank you! Thanks a lot..." The girl bowed too low and he was totally scared of it since she was someone important to Boss.
"Yes... Please...!" He was literally pleading the girl to get lost.
"AHhh!" He sighed in relief as soon as she saw the girl was out.
"You have done a good job." He heard his boss's voice and composed himself to a stern bow.

             That day Mrs. Smith and Ronnie both were happy . Mrs. Smith feeled satisfied .At night she could sleep peacefully whole night. She kept dreaming that Ronnie is her great grandchild and he played in the garden of the manor.
             On the other hand Zinu was in a disaster. Ronnie had bought a lots of things, which could not fit to her room. She was living in very small house. It has only two bedroom and a guest room.                She had converted the guest room to his study room. It has some essential furnitures. Now, with all the new things she couldn't find a place to keep them. She and her mother had to shift their own things to one room and made space for Ronnie's toys and other items. As she was setting the things the door bell rang. Ronnie opened the door and squealed .
"Second granny, I have won the award. Now you have to give me my gift. "
Mrs. Angel smiled. "Sure my dear. Tomorrow I will take you to the market. Now are you happy? "
"Yes! " Ronnie clapped his hand and start dancing.
Zinu saw his son helplessly. She said rubbing her forehead, "Everyone dotted on him so much that someday he would be a spoilt brat. Today he accepted all these gifts from an old lady. Aunt is it good for him to be pampered by all of is? "
Mrs. Angel said, "Don't worry Zinu. Our Ronnie is a very intelligent boy. He knows what is bad for him. He will be a big boy within a few years. Let's pamper him. He deserves it. By the way, how was his song? "
 "It was so sweet. Everyone present there praised him. Someone asked him to join film industry. Thank you aunt." 
"Zinu, no need to thank me. He is like my grandson. He has a good potential. If only we
can enroll his name in the famous 'Music Academy'. But now we have to wait for some more time. "
                'Music Academy' was best music school in the country. It accept admission only after an audition. Ronnie impressed the judges of audition, by showing his singing skill, but could not enroll himself, as the fees was too high. 
                  Although Zinu was working as permanent employee in her company, the salary was not that high that she could afford the fees.She had to do overtime duty to manage the expenses. Ronnie's school fees, her mother's treatment and other daily necessities need a huge amount of money,for which she had to struggle very hard.
                   She felt her heart pains when Ronnie used to say her that he doesn't like the toys which other children have.She her eyes didn't miss the pain on his eyes. She knew Ronnie is very understanding kid. He never threw tantrums for anything.
                     Zinu wanted to give him everything he deserves.That was the reason that Zinu wanted to do job in the largest multinational company, 'Smith Enterprise'. She heard that the salary of a simple receptionist of that company was much more than manager of other companies. 
                        Every year 'Smith enterprise' held interviews for different posts. They used to hired highly qualified and experienced person for the post. Zinu applied for a post last year also, but declared not eligible. This year she didn't want to apply, but Dolly didn't listen to her. She herself filled the online form and posted on behalf of Zinu.                                Surprisingly this year Zinu's form accepted and she got a call letter for interview. The interview would be held on tomorrow. Zinu was nervous for the interview, but Dolly encourage her.
                           Mrs.Angel and Dolly helped her so many times.They are like another family to her. They denied to take the rent from her after the birth of Ronnie.Mrs. Angel was like second grandmother of Ronnie.
                            When she got knew that Ronnie had an interest in singing,she took initiative to teach him the basics of music. She herself took online courses of music. She had a music school,but now it is closed. She wanted to help Ronnie to got admission to the music school, but they too could not make it.
"Aunt, I don't know if I would be able to get that job or not but if I get the job, then it will be easier for me to get him enrolled. Otherwise I don't know what to do."Zinu sighed.
" Zinu dear, please don't be sad. I am quite sure you would get that job. If not then we would think other ways. Don't worry. Now take rest. "Mrs.Angel said and left.
                     Sofia cooked the dinner and called them. After having dinner, they slept. Zinu could not sleep. What if she doesn't get the job? How would she give Ronnie everything which he deserves?Should she return to her father and claim for her shares? No. She could not take anything from that cheater. Buli used to inform her everything. 
                       From her she came to knew that, her father was ill and Jullie became the power of attorney and now she got all the power of her father's company. 
                         Last week Camilla and Rian engaged. Buli also informed her that her boyfriend has joined the 'Royale hotel's as per her plan. So, she was sure that he would get the information about the man they were searching for many years.She tried to get all the CCTV footage of that day with the help of her boyfriend, but they found that hotel's system was crashed by a unknown virus.


A little boy was singing a song in the stage. The boy was singing the song so emotionally the all the people present in the Hall felt their hearts was paining. The Hall was silent even after the song finished as everyone was hypnotized. They came to their senses when a little girl clapped her hands. Everyone started to discuss the voice of the boy. There was something in his voice, that everyone attracted to it.

"Who is the lucky parent of this little angel? "

"Oh my god! What a voice! He should sing for a movie as a kid singer"

As everyone was praising him, the little boy ran to his mother.

"Was it good? " He asked?

"It was not good. But it was best!! I am proud of you. "

"Ronnie is also proud of his mom. Because you taught me this. "

His mother kissed him and let him sit on her lap.

 The anchor was announcing the results of different competitions.A lot of prizes were given to different students. At last, the principal of the school came to the stage and announced, "Respected ladies and gentlemen. Thanking for your coming. I am here for the announcement of 'best student award'

"This year a new talent has got the 'best student award'. To give away the prize I would like to request our trustee Mrs.Ruby Smith to come on the stage. Madam please"

 Mrs. Ruby Smith smiled and come to the stage with Miss Fue, who helped her. The principal continued, "Now I am going to announce the name of the awardee. So, 'Best student award goes to Ronnie Wilson. I request parents of Ronnie accompany him to stage."

 Hearing the announcement, Ronnie yelled in excitement. "Mom, I have kept my promise."

 His mother smiled and kissed his cheeks and accompanied him to the stage. When Ronnie reached the stage,Mrs. Smith shocked to see Ronnie.

"How is it possible? Same face, same smile. Everything is the same. Who is this kid? "She shocked more when she saw the lady, accompanying him. She frowns and only comes to sense when Miss Fue whispered in her ears. So after giving away the prize,Mrs. Smith called his mother, "So you are his mother? "

 




 Zinu, a beautiful employee of a call centre was drugged by her stepmother and stepsister and spent a night with an unknown man, who too was drugged by his enemy. She thought she would never meet this man again in her life so, she even didn't care to see his face too. In the morning while she left the hotel, she left a note for the man on which she requested him not to search her. Who knew that she would be pregnant by this one nightstand. Now she was in dilemma. She didn't want to raise her child without a father. But, now how could she be able to find the man? 

 John Smith, the richest man in the country waited for Zinu for six long years, without knowing her identity. Although he couldn't see Zinu's face on that eventful night, he fell in love with her. But as Zinu wished, he decided not to search her.

 He wanted to fulfil her only wish. He could never forget her. He was the believer of destiny and kept the note left by Zinu carefully. He believed that someday Zinu would come to his life again.

 Would Zinu be able to find her child's father's identity? Would they meet again, as John Smith believes? To know, please read 'Secret love of the CEO'.

I looked into my mirror to fix my medium hair with a little bit wavy. I put a cat style of eyeliner to my puppy eyes to look for glamorous in young lady appearance. I little bit looked mature after all I had experience in my past.

"So it was 1 month ago." I said to myself.

My mom came into my room and brought my formal coat.

"You look so beautiful." She told me with a sweet smile.

She went at my back and touched my soft hair.

"Lyrids, you should start a new life. I know my dear daughter, if one door closed then soon all windows will be opened for you." She happily said to me.

I smiled and nodded as a sign of believing to her.

I looked so fabulously formal today. I think it was the real me. The mature part of me was suddenly released after Knight and I break up.

I was walking alone the road when the informing electronic voice started to speak from the sky.

"Good day everyone! In 30 seconds, soft snow balls will fall down from our skyfor 30 minutes. It was not dangerous to be bumped on it but reminding everyone to make report incase that it can cause problem or disturbances. Thank you." The woman voice said.

Fake snow was now falling in the park. I smiled while looking to it and turned my head to the golden retriever dogs at the road.

"Today is a brand new day..." I said joyfully as I start walking on the road.

It feels good today, I moved on quickly.

I entered the JardineHamatson Building for my final interview with a group of panels.

I entered the elevator and went to 30th floor. There, people were few on the area. Robotic humanoids were everywhere for a reason that employees were time traveling all the time.

I ate my saliva when I entered the wide dark room filled with radiant energy field. The interviewers were 7 professionals. The two women, one is 30s and the second one looks in 20s. The five men were 2 in 20s, 1 in 30s and 1 in 40s. It makes me so tense. If I failed my dream to work here will be never happen forever.

Holographic wall on their sides were prepared to search if my answers were accurate.

"Dear God, please help me in answering them." I silently said while walking straightly.

I sit down and heard that the man in 20s said that I looked beautiful.

"Let's see if her beauty will amaze us through her answers." The woman in 20s said.

My interview took 4 hours and it feels like I was drained but they were totally amazed to me because of my great confidence and my charisma. However, I still don't know if that amazement will be the reason to choose me out of 777 applicants that they are hiring for the associate safety assurance time traveler.

"Please wait for 2 minutes. We will get your votes from the panels then you'll hear it through the announcement audio." The Humanoid said to me.

I waited at the waiting room until I heard the announcement. Names of applicants who passed were congratulated one by one.

"Miss Lyridsdela Cruz, congratulation for passing the final interview! Kindly, return tomorrow for the orientation and training for the job."

"Ah!" I was shocked.

"I passed it! I am awesome!" I said and started to involuntary dance a little because of happiness.

Stopped dancing because some stare at me.

"Oh, sorry." I said with a smile. My action doesn't fit my appearance.

"Hehehe... I did it!" I said to myself.

While walking slowly I touched the stainless walls and became so happy.

"This is where I will stay for a long time." I happily said.

I entered the elevator and slides my hand slowly to button until I accidentally touched a man's hard hand.

"Ah ... I'm sorry." I bow my head and apologized.

The man just looked so bossy to my shocked face and ignore me.

I looked again to the man because he looks familiar.

I tried to remember where I saw him before but forgot it.

"His chinito eyes was very familiar. Maybe a dejavu..." I said to myself.

I went outside the building and laughed loudly.

"Hahahaha! I have a new job! My new job is my dream job! I was hired! I am super lucky and amazing! Hahaha!" I spread my hands and imagined that all positive energies were entering my slender body.

The feeling was happier than the day Knight proposed to me. I want to laugh all day, dance and sing rock and roll.

"Hehehe, I should quickly tell my mother." I ambitiously said.

After 2 hours, John's parents invited me to visit John's buried body with seeds of trees to grow.

I came with a smile and kissed her mother to the cheeks.

"Thank you for coming." She said to me.

"You are welcome Mrs Annie." I replied.

"You are beautiful and John was right we are little bit have similar face when I was on your age." She said happily to me.

I nodded and smiled.

We stand at the grass where John's body was buried and pray to Jesus Christ for his peace.

"John loved you so much. He often told me how much he cared for you and wish that he will be your future husband." She said to me in a low tone.

"I also liked you Lyrids for him but now it is too late... John was no longer alive... His death was too sudden ..." She cried and said to me.

I tapped her back and tried to comfort her.

"Though John was no longer existing in this time, he was continuously alive on the other time and traveling." I said to her.

"Yes, it was true Lyrids. Please incase that you saw him then give this letter" She stopped crying and moved his hand to me.

"Mrs. Annie, I will." I replied.

I became a little bit sad again but I should not think that he was dead. He was around at different dimensions but in my time he stopped existing. So that's life.

"John's job was very dangerous and this is as same as mine now. I could also die like him if I am not always be careful but no matter what, I will love this job soon."

"I'm so excited for tomorrow." I said silently and smiled.

"If love is not meant to be then it's not meant to be."

This is the soft & innocent TIME TRAVELER love story of Knight and Lyrids that happened between the reddish planet Mars and bluish planet Earth.

Lyrids thought that Knight is her forever but when their dimension encountered a minimal changed after meeting Gian, things were changed and it force Knight to revenge after 5 years.

 This is  a very EXCITING love story!"
  It was all in ONE - A SCI-FI , LOVE , COMEDY, MYSTERY, ACTION, THRILLER, & 
  FUTURISTIC NOVEL.
The Scorpion's darkness creates an intense HORROR to the story.
"READ NOW, it's never too late!"

Elise's mom drove her to the interview, and was so proud of her that she had decided, whether or not Elise got the job, they were going to get ice cream afterward. Elise sat staring out the window. She was excited about the interview, but she was really happy about being Finnegan's girlfriend. She wanted to tell Cheyanne. She didn't want to say anything to Kimber or Ashley until they were at school. While she was glad they were being so welcoming to her, she still didn't really know them that well. She thought about the spot on the back of her left hand where Finnegan had kissed her.
She felt like a character in one of her novels, being courted by a gentleman. She had to have chaperoned outings with her Gentleman, and he would kiss her hand every time he greeted her and said farewell. Of course, at least she didn't have to carry around a parasol and a fan with her everywhere. It was cumbersome enough having to tote her backpack along, but books were heavy, and she had too many of them to just carry in her arms everywhere.
Her mom noticed she was quiet on the way to the interview. "Are you nervous, 'Lise?"
Elise looked at her mom, pulling herself out of her thoughts. "Huh? Oh, Um I guess, maybe."
"Hey, all you need to remember is to speak clearly and be respectful. You know, 'Yes, sir' 'No, sir.' You'll be fine."
"Thanks, Mom." They pulled into the parking lot at Subway.
"I'll wait for you here, Honey. Good luck!"
Elise got out and went in.
The interview was professional and brief. It probably took 20 minutes. They must have already decided they were gonna hire her before they even called her back. They told her to start in a week since she didn't have her car yet. Elise shook the manager's hand, remembering that. when shaking hands with men, it was best to have a firm grip. Elise thanked him and turned around to walk back to her mom's car.
When she got in she tried to look stoic. Her mom looked at her with concern. Then, changing her expression completely, Elise told her she was hired. She smiled so hard her eyes squinted, and she held her hands in tight fists just under her chin.
"Honey! That's great. You had me worried," Elise's mom reached over and swatted Elise on the arm. Elise giggled. "Well, you know what that means?"
They both shared a look and simultaneously cheered, "ICE CREAM!" Laughing they went through the drive through, and Elise's mom excitedly talked about dinner with her friend, Norma, on Friday all the way home.
...
As soon as we got home, I laid on my bed. Everything was perfect. She was Finnegan's girlfriend! She got a job. She was getting a car and her license soon. Even though she wasn't talking to Cheyanne anymore, she still had Kimber and Ashley, and she was going to sleepover at Ashley's this weekend. She sat up and texted Finnegan.
"I got the job! I am now a Sandwich Builder at Subway."
He replied immediately. "Awesome! I knew you'd get it. Congrats!"
"Thank you," she sent back. "Well I'm going to work on some homework. I'll text you before I go to bed."
"Ok. I'm working on some stuff too. I finished my note to you, by the way. I can't wait to give it to you."
"I can't wait to read it." Elise set her phone down and got out the essay she started in class today. It didn't take her very long to finish it. It was definitely easier to work when she wasn't nervously sitting in front of Finnegan. And he made it hard to concentrate anyway because he was so handsome.
 His hair was thick, but not messy. She wanted to run her hands through it. His eyebrows were thick too, and they created a perfect frame along his smooth brow and around his intelligent eyes. His eyes were a dark green and his face had a chiseled masculinity to it. His lips were full and flanked by the most charming dimples that only appeared when he was truly amused. His chin also had a slight depression in the center that made him look like a fairy tale prince. He wasn't super muscular. His body was slender, but he wore baggy shirts and hoodies all the time, so she couldn't really tell what his body looked like underneath. His hands were so big, compared to hers. When he held her hand, he had such gentle strength. And he was so kind and smart and sweet. Most boys wouldn't have thought to write her such a carefully composed letter. Most boys just texted a brief message along the lines of 'You're hot. Wanna go out?' Finnegan was so much better than all of that. He put a lot of thought into everything he did and said. That made it all the more sweeter that he asked her to be his girlfriend. He wouldn't have made so much effort if she wasn't anyone special.
She put away her notebooks and got ready for bed. She texted Finnegan again.
 "I'm going to bed now. Good night, Finn." Elise snuggled under her covers and started at her phone screen.
"Good night, my sweet Elise. I hope you have sweet dreams. I'll see you tomorrow."
'My sweet Elise,' he called her. She was elated. "I am his Elise. And he is MY Finnegan at long last. My Finnegan." She giggled and hugged herself into a ball.
Everything was perfect. But just before she completely drifted into sleep, her subconscious reminded her of the prophecy his mom read in her tea. Elise dreamed Finnegan was holding her, but he was looking at her apologetically, like he had done something awful. She couldn't hear what he was saying, but she was trying to comfort him. 
The dream faded from her memory when she woke up and read his text again in the morning. This was the first full day they were boyfriend and girlfriend.

Elise is an average bookworm at a high school in a small town in Arkansas. Her crush, Finnegan, is a tall, dark, and mysterious type of boy who seems indifferent to nearly everyone, and everything. The one thing Elise knows about him is he is pagan. Elise receives a mysterious prophecy, which comes true when she interrupts a ritual Finnegan was performing and accidentally gets turned into a ball python. Now he has to let her into his world of paganism and mysterious power to try to fix his mistake. If she doesn't want to be a snake forever, she will have to learn how to cultivate her own power so she can shape-shift at will.

After that, He Ying asked Lu Zhou a lot of questions on behalf of the audience, and Lu Zhou responded to them one by one.
This included how controllable fusion technology would affect the lives of ordinary people.
And what kind of positive impacts the energy breakthrough would have on the nation's economy.
Also, Lu Zhou's own personal future plans…
Of course, Lu Zhou obviously didn't talk about any sensitive technology topics.
Once they were done with the interview, some people would edit the content of the program before the program would be officially broadcasted. They would edit out those sensitive topics.
Of course, since these things were handled by the professional production team, Lu Zhou didn't have to worry about it.
In the second half of the interview, during the audience interactive session, an 11-year-old girl walked on stage. She stood next to Lu Zhou while holding a large bouquet of clove pinks. 
She stared at Lu Zhou with her big, bright eyes as she handed out the bouquet in her hand.
"My teacher told us that you should put the flowers in a vase, next to your bedside table. This will make you feel better. Grandpa said that you used knowledge to help a lot of people, he wants you to get better. Also, I want to become a scientist like you when I grow up…"
It wasn't easy for the little girl to say all this, especially while holding a large bunch of flowers.
The young girl took a deep breath. She looked absolutely adorable.
"Thank you for your clove pink!"
Lu Zhou smiled and took the flowers from her hand. Even though he knew this was probably arranged by the show production team, he still smiled and said gratuitously, "Smelling the flower is already making me feel a lot better. Remember to tell your teacher I said thank you!"
The little girl blushed and nodded. She then turned around and ran off stage.
The audience erupted in applause.
In the midst of the applause, the show also came to an end.
Lu Zhou left the studio and went into the green room.
After He Ying expressed her gratitude to Lu Zhou on behalf of the production team, she continued to speak, "Professor Lu, are you free later?"
Lu Zhou: "Why, what's up?"
He Ying smiled and said, "Nothing much, I just wanted to grab food with you or something."
"Let's get food another day. I'm afraid Doctor Yan won't let me eat anything before I leave the hospital," Lu Zhou said with a smile.
Yan Yan, who was standing behind him, didn't say anything. However, she obviously agreed.
Even though she didn't have the power to control Lu Zhou's actions, as his personal doctor, she was still responsible for all of his health concerns.
Even though He Ying was a little disappointed, she still smiled. "Okay then, another day it is."
After Lu Zhou left the TV studio, he went back into his car. He was surprised to find out that the 301 Hospital guards that followed him here were gone. Instead, in came Wang Peng, who he hadn't seen for three days.
Lu Zhou was sitting in the back seat. He looked at the familiar face through the rearview mirror and said, "I thought you went home for the holidays."
Wang Peng made a helpless expression.
"No holidays for me, I'll probably lose my end-of-year bonus as well."
Forget about the end-of-year bonus.
If it weren't for his previous excellent record, he would be in even more trouble right now.
He had been constantly berated by the higher-ups over the past few days.
"No end-of-year bonus? Why…" Lu Zhou suddenly realized something and awkwardly said, "It's not because of me, right?"
Wang Peng smiled and didn't say anything.
It was quite difficult for him to answer this question.
Of course, he didn't complain about the punishment. After all, it was his job to protect Lu Zhou. And now, it seemed like he had failed his job.
However, Lu Zhou, who knew the real reason of why he was sick, felt somewhat guilty. After all, he wasn't poisoned or malnourished into a coma or something. It was purely because he leveled up his discipline. His brain couldn't handle the information overload… 
Lu Zhou decided he should do something to compensate for this.
"Oh, I see, I'll write a letter for you and explain the situation to the higher-ups."
Wang Peng was suddenly anxious, and he said, "Oh please don't, please don't do this."
Lu Zhou said, "No, this isn't your fault. It's mainly because I didn't take care of my body…"
Suddenly, Yan Yan interrupted him.
"His department has rules and regulations. If someone said that he made a mistake, then he made a mistake. There's no debate about that… If you really write a letter for him, not only will it not help him, but it will give him more trouble."
She was also punished in the same regard.
The reason why she wasn't fired from her current position was that 301 Hospital couldn't find any evidence of malnourishment.
This was also the reason why Wang Peng was able to get his job back. There was simply no evidence of sabotage.
Even though Yan Yan's father was a veteran, she didn't get any type of special treatment.
And she never expected Lu Zhou to get her out of this trouble.
Lu Zhou began to realize the situations they were in, so he decided not to write the letter.
Even though he still felt kind of guilty, it was what it was.
At most, he would just compensate them later…
Lu Zhou returned to 301 Hospital and was about to go upstairs for his daily medical checkup. However, when he walked into the main building, he saw Academician Wang waiting at the front entrance.
Academician Wang's eyes lit up when he saw Lu Zhou, and he smiled as he walked over.
"How are you? Do you feel better?"
"I feel a lot better." Lu Zhou smiled and said, "It's almost Chinese New Year. Are you not going back to your hometown?"
"I was born and raised in Beijing, where am I supposed to go? My hometown is one metro stop away." When Academician Wang saw that Lu Zhou could walk on his own, he nodded in relief. He said, "I'm relieved that your condition is getting better. You have no idea how many people were worried about you." 
Lu Zhou smiled awkwardly and said, "I feel really bad."
"Don't say that! We're the ones who should be feeling bad." Academician Wang sighed and said, "Controllable fusion isn't an easy thing to accomplish. Especially when it comes to coordinating various research departments. Most of the critical research projects were done by you alone. Honestly… I and the old guys at the Chinese Academy of Sciences feel quite guilty."
"I'm just doing my best, no big deal." Lu Zhou smiled and said, "Plus, my health is getting a lot better now."
Academician Wang sighed and said, "I'm glad you think that way. Also, there's one thing I have to tell you. While you were in a coma, we tried to achieve fusion ignition a couple more times. The STAR-2 demonstration reactor is looking good. The higher-ups personally made demands to implement the grid connection and supply electricity to the 80 million residents in the Jiangsu province!"
Lu Zhou smiled and said, "It's going to be connected? That's fantastic!"
Academician Wang smiled and said, "Yeah, it's really amazing. I didn't expect to live to see this day. But, there's another favor I have to ask you."
Lu Zhou frowned and said, "Is there a problem with the demonstration reactor?"
That's not possible!
Even the system recognized the success of the fusion ignition.
"It's not the demonstration reactor." Academician Wang quickly explained, "It's just that after it's connected to the grid, we can't keep calling it its code name, right? After all, this is the world's first demonstration reactor. The higher-ups asked us for a new name. I don't really care about these kinds of things, so I'm asking you, the chief designer."
Academician Wang smiled and said, "How about you think of a beautiful name for the reactor? If you really can't think of anything, you can use your own name. This is a good opportunity to leave your name in history."
"Let's not use my name. It sounds weird." Lu Zhou coughed and said, "I'll think about it."
Academician Wang said, "Okay then, you think about it. I have a couple of examples here."
Lu Zhou: "What examples do you have?"
"Oh, like Houyi, Jinwu, Daohuozhe, Suiren, etcetera. There's also the more westernized Prometheus. These were all decided through votes by the people in the army department. You can decide which one you like." 
After thinking for a long time, Lu Zhou said, "Let's call it Pangu[1]."
Academician Wang: "Pangu?"
"Yeah." Lu Zhou nodded.
He had actually thought about this for a while.
Not only would the controllable fusion breakthrough revolutionize the energy industry, but it would change the entire world.
In some sense, the birth of this demonstration reactor was the second creation of the world.
"If you think that's a good name, then so be it." Academician Wang smiled and said, "Okay then, I'm not going to stay here for long. I'll submit this name to the higher-ups and you should get some rest. The people at the demonstration reactor site are still waiting for your return. We still haven't hosted a fusion ignition celebration party yet. We've been looking forward to this for the whole of last year."
Lu Zhou smiled and nodded.
"Ok, I promise we'll have the party soon."

Christina Dobluski's POV
I finally landed in Italy last night. Finally, I was a foreigner. I have been dying to be that someday and that someday was today. I was out of my home country and I cannot believe it that my father was not aware of my disappearance.
 I checked into a hotel in Milan. It was very expensive and almost broke my savings. I have the room for myself for the next 2 weeks and until then, I don't have to worry about my accommodation. 
 I was taking a shower as I was getting ready for my interview. It was still 8 AM when I got into the hotel and I have one hour and a half to get ready and another 30 minutes for my communion to the boutique.
 I have asked Kiara about all this and she just gave the itinerary for it. I think she was thinking that now I was on my adventure I have to get to the boutique by figuring it out myself.
 I sighed as I was rubbing my face as the cold water was hitting my face. It was Summer in Milan and I was thinking that maybe a summer dress will be appropriate for me to wear to the interview. I hoped Antonio will not be picky.
 I got out of the shower and dried myself with a fluffy towel. It was not the best room in the hotel but I could get by. Being in the mansion and was served by the finest thing in life might make you think that I would be gross but fun fact, I loved to be indulged in gross things.
 I remembered vividly of me playing in the mud during the raining season, me searching for caterpillar because it was Spring and I wanted to look at it closely that I caught on with my hands.
 My tutors freaked out when they find out about that.
And here I was, dressing without the help of maids or anything. I'm sure I can get by because a normal life was what I craved, not the life that I was born into.
 Do not think about it now, Christina. You have an interview to attend.
I wore minimal makeup as I only know how to put on mascara, some powder, and lipgloss. I hoped it was not too mundane for a cosmetologist to see his PA candidate to be that plain. 
 I sighed as I was wearing a black blouse with dress pants. I was not wearing any stilettos because they were killing my feet so I chose sneakers instead. 
 I hope my minimalist style suited to Antonio.
I went out of the bathroom as I French braided my hair and I went to put some Eau de Perfume, White Musk by Body Shop. It always lifted my spirit.
 "Okay, I'm ready," I said as I was looking at myself in the mirror.
 "Hopefully, he will accept me and I don't have anyone to compete with," I said as I was finger crossed my hands. I wanted this job so badly so that I can stay here longer and maybe gain some experience of dealing with matters under pressure.
 You never know when you need to be ready.
I was getting out of the bathroom as I looked at my backpack. I don't have any handbags to be carried around so I will be using my backpack as my handbag. I had cleaned out all the stuff in them as I will be staying here for two weeks, so I put it inside the closet that they have in the room.
 "Okay, I got my phone, wallet, keys, CV and supporting documents. Oh, almost forgot," I said as I went to the night table and took my ID.
 "My passport, it was supposed to be the most important one," I said as I was smiling before I put it inside my backpack and I was out of the room.

In the hustle and bustle of Milan, I managed to find the bus stop in time for me to board. It was like 3 euro for me to get on board. Now, I need that job even more as I just spent half of my savings and I don't think I can survive another 2 weeks.
 I even barely have begun!
I sighed as I was looking outside the window as I was looking at the surrounding. Milan was such a great city as I was looking around. The people there were fashionable and I think I was dressing understatement as I was about to be interviewed by the world-renowned cosmetologist. 
 I gulped as I saw the boutique in front of me. My eyes were big as a saucer as I just realized that I must have missed my stop.
 "Stop, stop. Please, I need to get off," I said in Italian as I was pulling the sign to get out of the bus. Everyone was staring at me as I was looking at them. I smiled apologetically as I was getting off the bus even after the stop was far behind me.
 "Thank you," I said as I looked at the driver. He grunted before he cursed under his breath about the younger generation has no respect for anything. I sighed as I was walking into the direction of the boutique. It was magnificent as I was looking at the sign.
 "Romano's Reality," I mumbled before I was standing in front of the doorway. I was staring at the sign for a good amount of 5 minutes.
 "Hi, hello. Can I help you?" A petite person was coming out of the boutique as I must be gawking in the open.
 "Oh, hi. Um, sorry. I was supposed to be here for an interview for the PA position," I said as I took my offer letter inside my back. I was being clumsy in front of this immaculate person with her glossy hair and perfect makeup. 
 If I was to compare myself to her, I was on the 0 and she was on 10 scales.
She chuckled as she was looking at my clumsiness. I smiled at her as I was blushing hard right now. I can feel my face was getting hot and with that, the letter came out of my bag as I handed it to her. She read it and beamed at me.
 "Well, we have been expecting you well, for another 15 minutes. You're punctual. Antonio would love that," she said as she gestured me to follow her. We went inside and I was hit by the harsh air conditioning. It was nice but also chilled me to the bones.
 "I'm Nina, by the way. What's your name?" She asked as we were walking around the boutique before we were greeted by the stairs that were spiraling up. I don't know it has stairs. I stared in awe as I was walking up the stairs.
 "Christina," I replied as I was still looking around the stairs.
 Nina was talking about Antonio and how many people have worked for him but he fired them because they were incompetent, as Nina put it.
 "But I think you will be what he needs," she said as she was directing me to sit at the chair outside Antonio's office, I assumed.
 "What do you mean?" I asked as I took the letter from her. She was amused by my reaction before she went to knock on the door. 
 "Come in," a gruff sound was coming from the room before she went inside.
 "Wait here," she mouthed before she went inside. I was looking around the room as there was a plastic plant that was immaculate with its shiny leaves and everything.
 That thing looked even better than me!
I sighed before Nina was coming out from the room as she was beaming at me. I smiled at her before she gestured me to follow her. I stood up and went to the door before Nina introduced me to Antonio.
 The Antonio Romano.
 "Sir, this is Christina, the applicant for the PA position," she said as she was holding my shoulders. I looked at the direction of Nina called Sir. He was staring out the window as his back was to my view. 
 He was lean and toned alright. The right muscles that were hugged by his button-down green checker shirt and fitted denim jeans. For someone that was high class, he dressed like he was a normal guy.
 Well, maybe he liked to be in his comfy clothes.
 "That would be all, Nina," his voice was commanding and husky. My heart swelled at it as he was sipping on his tea? Coffee? I don't even know what this guy likes and here I was trying to get a job as his PA.
 "Of course," Nina said and with that, I was left standing near the door as Nina closed the door behind me. 
 Okay, now we were left with an eerie silence.
I did not move from my spot as I was standing still like a tree at the door. Antonio did not move as well as I can sense he was enjoying his tea to be bothered to talk with me.
 "Umm," I started before he instructed me to take a seat in front of his mahogany desk.
 "Take a seat," he commanded and I hurried to take a seat before he turned around to look at me. I was easing myself as I don't want to be nervous around him. I will be spending my time around him and if I was afraid of him, what's the point.
 "Now," he said as he put his tea down as his brunet hair was shimmering under the sunlight, I wanted to run my fingers through it. He shuffled as he turned to look at me and my grey eyes clashed with his light brown eyes.
 "Shall we begin?" He asked as he smiled at me.
I think I have been taken to be in his warmth forever at this moment, starting with his warm eyes.

The synopsis will be written soon. Sorry for the inconvenience!
