CHAPTER TWO

Chapter two

Hazel

I remembered I haven't pressed my floor on the button so I quickly did that, he didn't move but I sensed he followed me with his eyes which seems to be the only moving part in his body. I slowly retreated to where I stood before, clutching onto my handbag, I made to lick my lips again but stopped, when I remembered my lip gloss once more.

From the corner of my eye, I watched my companion, he seems not to be a talker but I am which you already know with how I have been bugging you here, sorry.

"Hi" I made my attempt in making a conversation, "are you here for the interview too?" His eyebrows furrowed as he now turned his head fully to my view, giving me a chance to study that perfect face, his nose was pointed, his eyebrows were dark like his hair and in a beautiful shape, his lips a thin straight line but damn, still looks attracting, his face was smooth, almost like a baby's and I really wanted to touch it, let me just cut it short, he looked like he was carved by the gods themselves.

"Yes" a deep voice resounded in the elevator and it took me nearly a minute to realize that he was the one that spoke and another minute to figure out he was answering my question.

"I see, whose secretary do you think they are looking for anywhere?" I asked, grateful to already find an ally to gossip with.

"I think it's for Dave Williams" he replied, I didn't miss the look of amusement in his deep brown eyes but I can't figure what was amusing him so I let it go.

"I see. So you want to be his secretary?" I ask.

"No I'm not interviewing as a secretary."

"Really, as what then, I thought it was only secretary that was written on the form" I creased my brows, thinking hard to know if I had missed that detail.

"I filled a different form."

"Oh, what then?" I was elated I didn't miss any detail, rather it was a different form.

"As an assistant."

"For Dave Williams too?"

"Yes."

I nodded, looking at the elevator timer and knowing it would soon be my floor so I turned to him and stretched my hand to him with a smile, "I will wish you luck, I hope you get the job, I hope I do too because I have been dreaming my whole life to work here."

He took my hand after a second thought and it was the strongest yet the softest hand I have ever touched, "I wish you luck too."

I smiled, gladly accepting his good wishes, "I'm Hazel, I hope to see you around."

"Nice meeting you Hazel" I waited for him to tell me his name but too late, the elevator opened on my floor and I released his hand, smiling before muttering goodbye when I noticed he wasn't getting out with me, he is going for a different interview so I shouldn't be expecting my floor to be the same with his. I felt his eyes on me as I walk but when I turned, the doors has already closed so I shrugged and made my way to the conference room where I almost fainted with the number of people sitting there to be interviewed and God help me, I picked number one hundred and seven. Can this day be any more worse? This is why you should always go early for an interview.

After an agonizing two hours, it finally reached my turn, I stood up immediately at the mention of my number, note, number not name and entered when the bright blonde lady who had introduced herself earlier as Nicole opened the door for me to enter, there wasn't anybody in there to my surprise, that was when I figured, Nicole would be the interviewee too.

Just as she was ready to attend to me, her phone rang and she excused herself to answer while I sat like a person waiting for the judgment, but this judgment I must pass.

"Well Ms. Moor, I don't know if I should say luck is on your side or curse, Mr. Williams wish to interview you himself" Nicole said after taking her call.

What?

Double what??

Triple... In fact, a thousand whats!!

What does she mean want to interview me himself, why me, why on my turn?

"We will just give him a few minutes to join us" she continued like she hadn't dropped a bombshell on me.

"Okay" I squeezed out, not wanting to show my fear or the flip flop of my insides. I'm going to be interviewed by Dave Williams!

But hey, look on the bright side, I get to meet him, even if I don't get the job I get to see him for real then I will now judge if he is as ugly as the people say.

Thinking of my gain with the meeting, I started calming down, it will be a win win, I told myself.

After ten minutes, the door opened and in walked a man, I had my head bowed, not knowing the facial expression I should face the big Mr. Dave Williams with, "good morning sir" I heard Nicole greet and waited to hear a man's reply but nothing. I slowly lift up my head, prepared to see an ugly beast, you know, like beauty and the beast, but what I saw, neither my eyes nor my mind was prepared for it.

I looked up to see my handsome black devil, a playful smirk was playing on his lips as he noticed my shock, his deep brown eyes filled with amusement, what the fuck? I couldn't find my voice, in fact, my brain doesn't remember how to form words for my mouth to speak.

"Ms. Moor, this is Mr. Dave Williams" Nicole introduced and I just wanted to faint right then and die when he stretched out his hand to me.

"Pleasure to meet you Ms. Moor" he smiled, his eyes definitely laughing at me with the way it was sparkling, just tell me, can this day get any worse?
