Captioncall Job Novels & Stories

"Adeline! Adeline! Adeline!" I heard someone call my name repeatedly and I looked up sleepily at who was calling me, "Eva!? what is the issue?" I cried out and she placed her palms against my mouth, as though she wanted to silence my existence. "You have a call." She said and gestured at the phone in her other hand. "What?" I gestured, raising my shoulders up and down. She removed her hand from my mouth and gave me the phone. I collected it from her and raised my eyebrows. "Hello.."

I click on it and accept the job. Not having a phone or internet I use the libraries wifi to recieve the call at the dummy number I gave to the job. What I don't expect is the voice on the other end. His voice is deep and dreamy. I can't get over how much I want to jump his voice. As soon as I get over the urge to jump his voice, I clear my throat and start to talk, answering him. "I would love to accept the job." I can hear a chuckle in the background, just like his but maybe it's just an echo. "You don't even know us. Would you like to at least interview first?"

I usually don’t get calls from unknown people and most ended up being telesales people calling to sell things that I didn’t need. However, for this call, I had a feeling that it was the call that I had been waiting for. “Hello. I am calling from Jessen & Hills. Am I speaking to Miss Karina Miller?” “Yes…” I said, trying to control my excitement. “We have very good news. After a very competitive test, interview process and much consideration, we are pleased to offer you a position at our company. We will be emailing you the details of the job contract soon and will invite you to come in to sign the contract with us at headquarters,” the lady explained professionally through the phone.

**From:** Ethan Caldwell **Subject:** Opportunity – and a Conversation We Should Have Julian, I’ve been watching Jamie Reyes’s work. Impressive. Black + Lane is lucky to have him.

I’m offering him Creative Lead at Caldwell Creative—better pay, better title, no board breathing down his neck about “appearances.” He’d be free to shine.

I was still thinking of where to drop first when my phone began ringing, and I excused myself to answer the call. "Hello! Is this Ms. Celine Coleman?" A masculine voice sounded from the other end, and I checked my phone screen again to be sure of who the caller was, but it was an unfamiliar number. "Yes. Sorry, who is this?" I asked him. "You submitted your CV for a job at Shantele group of company... The interview is in an hour. You should not be late," I knotted my eyebrows together as waves of confusion spurred through me. It was the first time I had heard about that company, and I didn't remember submitting my CV to any company for a job.

' I headed to the underground parking garage and got into the Bentley that had been parked there for a long time. Only after I had completed the onboarding procedures at my new hospital did Rita finally call me, screaming curses the moment I answered. "Kevin, where the hell are you?! Are you insane? I already calmed the patient's family down! All that was left was for you to apologize, and you disappeared! I got yelled at because of you! Don't tell me you actually think the hospital can't function without you? Julian is a hundred times better than you. And you still want a promotion and raise? Are you even worthy?!"

I wake up energized, minutes before my alarm is set to ring. I have a big interview with the CEO of a major corporation today. This interview is big; like potential promotion big. No one has ever managed a true interview with the head boss of Brinewick Corp. In truth, I have been burnt out with this job; a job that was what I thought I wanted, but turned out to be more tedious tasks and unsatisfying workloads. But this job, this interview, is a once-in-a-career opportunity that I am finally excited for.

Alicia urged, glancing at Calla's phone on the bed. "It's probably just spam." Calla didn't move a muscle. "Just check it already," Alicia said, tossing the phone to Calla. Calla impatiently grabbed her phone and glanced at it. Suddenly, she tore the sheet mask off her face and stared at the screen in disbelief. "What is it? You're scaring me!" Surprised, Alicia stared at Calla. The next moment, Calla suddenly hugged Alicia. "I got the job!" Alicia was also shocked to hear this. She quickly asked, "Are you talking about the finance manager position at that law firm?"

I was going on and on complaining and panicking and crying but the sound of my phone chiming in cuts me off abruptly and I pick my phone up to see a text from my brother, from the number that I am familiar with. Then I opened the text and it read; Where are you?? Don't you know the way to my house any longer?? These Italian men are waiting for you!!!!! A gasp of shock escaped from my lips as another tear ran down my cheek. His text only just confirms the fact that I'm in deep shit and I've been trapped and I know my captor is lurking around somewhere and would come very soon for me knowing that I've easily fallen into the bait that has been set for me.

I try not to show my obvious fear and wonder at it. He moves to one of the chairs circling in front of the fire and gestures for us to sit before doing so himself. He sits back looking on waiting for us to explain and Zylith does just that.

She tells him about my abilities and tells him that I have named it the call. He looks at me in examination for the entire briefing about my abnormality.
