Chapter 1-Job Interview
Aurora woke up, anxious about the job interview at an art gallery. She opened her eyes slowly, stretched out her hands and widen her legs on her bed. Still feeling dizzy. About to sleep but the disturbing sound of the alarm immediately quenched the dizziness. "OMG! It's 7:15am already" she quickly stood up from her bed,rushed to the bathroom to freshen up. She off her night wears and took a warm bath. She hurried up and came out, went straight to her dressing mirror to have a look of her face. "Okay! No baggy eyes... I'm cool,fine" She was feeling good and worried at the same time. What if they don't give her the job? Will her talent waste? Hell no! She drew closer to her wardrobe, opened it and brought out a very captivating outfit. A gown,a light brown gown mixed with shades of white. "This will do" Convinced she was. She brought out a pair of white heels from her shoe rack,fit them on her legs,moved her right leg back and forth and stamped it twice on the ground to check how well it fits.
She flinged her head backwards and her long brown hair fell on her back. She took a comb and ran it through the hair to release it from tangling. She took a hair clip from the drawer and placed in on her hair after styling it... ''perfect'' she said. She took the remaining things and left her room. On her way out,she remembered she didn't make use of her scents. She hurried into her room and lavishly sprayed different fragrances on her outfit "Hmm,nice" Shd felt better.
Aurora was waiting for a bus when a guy walked towards her and snatched her bag. Damn! Her documents were inside. How would she get the job? She just stood quietly, wasn't making any attempt to pursue him or call for help. When he saw how calm she was,he knew something was wrong and slowly went back to her.
"H..h..h..hi" he stammered. He was obviously scared right now. Aurora didn't say a word. Her gaze met the bag at once,she looked up and smirked at him. He knew it was time to return it "here" He stretched out his hand and gave her the bag. She peacefully collected it. He was shivering when it wasn't cold. He turned to leave but took a step back and asked her "...who are you?" She just smiled and said " I am Aurora". He knew she wasn't just Aurora, there's more to it. There's something about her. " No, you're more" He said. " I'm sorry anyway, I needed some money to get drugs for my sick mother. I had no option but to snatch your bag" He was beginning to sob. "That's okay, that's enough" She said. "Go home,your mom is fine" What! She sounded like she has the power to heal. He was surprised and wanted to ask but wasn't opportuned to because she's got on a bus already. " Bye " She lastly said
It was a thirty minutes journey to the art gallery. Aurora caught the attention of everyone on the bus. She was beautiful. Her eyes were seductive with its unique gold color. Her hair was brown and long too. Her skin glows and shines like the morning sun. Talk about her lips, they look so soft with the perfect coloration of pink. Her smile is captivating and her dimples added to her beauty. Even when she knew people were admiring her,she decided to focus on where she's headed to. The job interview. The art gallery.
Finally, she's at the gate of the art gallery. She let out a sigh of relief and walked inside the building. She went straight to the interviewer's office and knocked at the door.
"... come in" A lady's voice was heard. She pushed the door and entered inside the office. "Please sit" She did. After some minutes of the interview, she was offered the job and was placed on a high payment roll because of her documents. She's learned and has the best composure.
"Congratulations" The interviewer said and shook her hand.
"Thank you" She said at all smiles.
"You can resume tomorrow" Wow! Already.
"Alright. No problem. Thanks again". Aurora said and left the office. She was so excited. Finally,her dream has come true.
Out of the office,she made it through to the reception. She was about to pass through the entrance and exit door when her shoulders collided with someone's body. Who was it? She stopped and stared at this person while she was stared at too. Twas a guy! A tall handsome young man.
"I'm sorry" She finally founded her voice.
"It's alright" He said, smiling. "By the way, I'm Ryker. How about you?"
"Umh, I'm Aurora" She said. She was beginning to be a bit shy but still was composed.
"Cool. You came here to buy an art work or...?" He asked. Was he interviewing her or something? What is it?
"I came here for a job interview" She replied, getting used to him now.
"Oh! Did you get it?" Fro the sound of his voice, you could conclude that he really wanted her to have the job.
"Yeah, sure" She happily said.
"Wow! That's good. Congratulations dear" Dear? Did he just say dear? They just met and he's calling her dear already.
"Thank you" She looked at him, avoiding to have a long eye contact with him. "I'll take my leave now" She said and left in a haste.
"When will you resume?" There was no answer. She's gone. He knew since she's gotten the job, she'd resume anytime from now. He crossed his mind and promised to come to the gallery another day just to see her. As he was about to move, he saw something on the ground. It was her necklace. It had fallen unknown to her. Another way to get to her.
