Nancy POV
My eyes nearly fell out of their socket, as they stared at the cute guy... no, beautiful guy. For real, cute was an understatement, he looked really handsome with his tanned skin. His hair was black and was styled perfectly, his eyes which were staring back into mine, were gold, wait... who the fuck has gold eyes?
Of course, this greek god standing before me does!!!
Like I have never seen anyone with these kind of eyes, his nose was pointed, sitting perfectly just above his lips... God! those lips!! He had this tiny pinkish lips, I wonder how they'd feel agains...
Aaaaahhh! Nancy!! What the heck are you thinking about?! I mentally slapped myself.
To be honest, the guy is something, I mean... he's perfect!
' Hey! ' I heard the deep husky voice, which I have suddenly grown to love, bringing me out of my fantasy.
' Huh? ' Obviously, I was lost.
He furrowed his thick brows, as he stared at me. Yeah right! he'd think am stupid.
' I asked you a question' He said, I could sense a tone of authority in his voice. Who does he think he is to use that tone on me, not like he owns this company or something.
' Question? What question? ' I asked.
' I asked why you came late'
Okay for real, who the fuck is this guy?
' Why are you asking?' I asked, getting pissed already.
' Excuse me?'
why is he acting like he didn't hear me, I thought with an eye roll.
' You heard what I said ' I snapped. I heard the receptionist gasp behind me.
The guy scoffed as he looked sideways and brought his gaze back to me.
God! I'm already hating his guts already.
' You know what Anastasia...' He began, with his eyes still on me. Then he took his gaze to the receptionist.
Who is Anastasia?
' Yes sir' I heard her say, making me raise a brow.
Oh, She is Anastasia.
'Sir?' what's going on? I thought to myself.
' Let her in for the interview ' He finally said, then turned and walked away briskly, without waiting for the receptionist reply.
' Oh okay sir' she said, even though he had walked a few meters from where we were.
Why the hell is she referring to him as sir? I thought, as I turned fully to look at her.
' You know what, you're really lucky' She said.
' What? Why? ' I asked almost immediately.
' Even after talking to him, like that he still let you in for the interview'
' Who is he?' I asked... I was curious.
' Don't tell me you don't know who he is?' she asked with a look of disbelief.
' Is he someone am supposed to know?'
She looked at me for a moment, then shook her head.
' Well, he's Xavier Madrigal, the CEO of this company ' She said.
Whhaaaat?!
Holy crap!!!
Oh my God!
what did I just do? I thought as I looked at her with a look of disbelief.
I felt a lump in my throat, which I found very difficult to swallow.
' So you're telling me, the guy that just left is the CEO of this company ' I just wanted to be sure I heard her right.
' Yeah ' She said with a shrug.
okay, I'm done for.
what do I do now?
I'm sure there's no way I'd be getting this job.
' You can go in for your interview ' She said, cutting through my baffled mind.
I scoffed, what's the use of the interview, when I won't be getting the job.
' Don't worry, I don't need it anymore' I said and turned to leave.
' Ma'am?'
But I ignored her, as I walked to the entrance. But on a second thought... I stopped on my track, would I really throw this opportunity away because of a mere CEO?
'Hah Hah Hah... very funny, mere CEO you say ' I thought to myself.
After all I went through just to get the job interview, I just want to through it away. Hell no!
Besides, who knows, he might just give me the job. With that thought giving me a renewed hope, I turned and headed back, it wouldn't hurt to try, right?
' Please, where's the interview taking place?' I asked the receptionist, who was now focused on her laptop.
She raised her head up, with a look of surprise.
' I thought yo...'
' Please just tell me where it is ' I cut her off.
She told me where it was, then I proceeded to find my way, using the directives she gave me.
' This must be it ' I muttered to myself, as I stood before a closed door, I took in a deep breath, trying to calm my nerves, behind this closed door lays my fate,
You can do this, Nancy. I reassured myself one last time, then I pressed the doorknob and pushed the door open. I walked in to meet two men and a woman dressed in suits, sitting behind a table. They must be the interviewers,
Phew... I felt relieved cause the beautiful guy wasn't among them, what would I have done if he was, I'm sure he would have asked stupid questions just to make sure I fail and loose the job.
' Good morning sirs, ma'am' I greeted bending slightly.
' Good morning ' One of the men said, he was sitting at the right end.
' Nancy West, right?'
' Yes sir ' I replied, making sure to be cautious.
' Why were you late?' The woman asked, she was sitting at the left end.
Oh crap!
' Uhm... I uhm... something came up, I'm so sorry ' I stuttered.
There was silence for a while, then the first man that spoke finally said.
' Have a seat '
' Thank you sir' I said before sitting on the chair before them.
They began the interview and everything was going smooth, some of the question they asked were simple and while some were pretty tricky, but I was smart enough to answer them.
' So while do you want to work as an accountant in this company?' The man in the middle asked.
' I wan...' I opened my mouth to say, but was cut short, when the door opened.
The three interviewers quickly stood up and said in unison with a slight bow.
' Good morning sir'
I turned my head to look at who they were referring to and as if the heavens were against me, there he was standing, with his hands in his trouser pocket, his eyes were staring right into mine.
Okay, I'm doomed.
I sat still suddenly unable to breath, God please, I just hope he doesn't screw things up for me.
He walked away from the entrance, towards me with his eyes still on me, it felt like he had captured me with them. His face was emotionless, so even if I tried to figure what he was up to, I wouldn't be able to.
Finally, he got to where I was and I swallowed a heavy lump down my throat.
With his eyes still on me, he said
' Give her the job
Wait... what?! Did I just hear him right?
' Sir, but we aren't done with the interview' the woman said
' Do you get to decide for me now?' He said icily, taking his eyes away from me, for the first time since he got to the room.
' No sir! I'm so sorry sir' The woman apologized almost immediately, I could sense the fear in her voice.
' Good ' He said, then brought his gaze back to me, gave me a long look, then turned and left through the door.
All of these felt like a movie to me, I pinched myself just to be sure it was true.
' Owwww' I winced at the pain, then I smiled.
I just got a fucking job!
