Fix My Heart

She waited patiently in the boardroom, remembering what Jenny said about trying to be a lady. That meant she would have to fight the nagging urge to put her feet up the table until she got back to the flat if she wanted to get this job.

Jenny had done her make up which she thought looked perfect but she had denied her offer of the little black dress her friend had suggested. She wanted to look professional, not slutty. And that was why she had gone shopping and got herself suit that made her look like a bad ass boss lady. It looked fun and with the added six inch she had on, it gave the whole outfit that killer look Jenny was trying to go for with the hideous dress.

Hearing the door open, instinctively she stood up and waited for whoever would be interviewing her to take their seat. As soon as he got close to her she knew there would be trouble. The man was eyeing her up and down like she was naked. Too bad the only place she could kill him was in her mind.

She forced on a smile and shook the hand he offered, which he let linger for a little while longer than was necessary. He sat down and nodded for her to do the same, and she did so already pulling out her paperwork so she could get this over and done with.

“So Miss Carson, are you sure this is the job for you? I mean, with a body like that, I could easily make a few calls and get you a job in one of our modelling agencies.”

That said, Kaia mentally sighed, knowing very well that she was not getting this job. This man was acting like a total díck and she had a huge problem with men like him. “I find that highly offensive and inappropriate sir,” she said with bucket-load of confidence and venom dripping from her mouth. But what she said only seemed to amuse this áss of a man, who she had learned in her research, was the production manager of the company.

“ But Miss, every woman likes to know their body can get them to the top if need be.”

She gave herself a mental pep talk and promised herself that if he made another suggestive comment, she was walking out, no matter how much she wanted this job. This had been her dream job since high school and here was Mr. Asświpe ruining it for her when she was so close. She was snapped out of her thoughts when he stood up and walked over to her.

“Can I call you by your first name?” He asked and without even waiting for a response he went on. “Kaia my darling, this field of work is about being talented, so how about you show me how talented that beautiful body of yours is,huh?”

He pulled her out of her seat and attempted to place his hand on her butt but Kaia being Kaia, his hand did not even land before she had his arm in a vice grip behind his back causing him to hiss in pain. She grabbed her purse, careful not to loosen her grip on his arm, and she walked out of the door with him hurling every kind of insult her way.

“I would like to talk to whoever he answers to,” Kaia said to the blonde receptionist who looked really confused.

But clearly deciding not to piss off the crazy girl any more than she already was, she quickly nodded and dialled a number. “ Sir we need you urgently, there is situation in the boardroom.” She listened for a while and put the phone down.

The manager tried again to wriggle out of Kaia’s grasp but to no avail. So instead he decided to beg her to walk them back to the boardroom because they had already caused a scene and he was probably scared he would lose his reputation if any more people saw him man-handled by a woman in six-inch stilettos. She led him back and he went back to throwing insults at her again.

“You little cúnt, you will not get this job if I have anything to do about it. And if I lose…” As fast as she had grabbed him, she let go and before he could even think of moving away from her, she pulled him back and kneed her in his ‘area’ and he doubled over in pain.
