~~~~* Your POV *~~~~

What time is it? Ugh its already 8:00!? I need to go see Urushihara about the job thing. I need to make something quick for breakfast. Maybe cereal. Yeah that will do. What kind of job is he setting me up with? Oh no! I didn't even think to ask him that! Why am I so stupid!?

~~~~* 2nd Person POV *~~~~

After finishing your breakfast and getting decent clothes on, you walk to Urushihara's room. Before you can knock Ashiya opens the door.

"Oh good morning Miss _____, I assume you are here to see Urushihara?" He states more than questions as he steps to the side to let you through the door.
"Please come in, I'm on my way to the store, do you need me to get you anything?" He asks smiling slightly.

"Oh no thank you Mr. Ashiya, I went yesterday." You say, smiling back at him as you step into the small apartment. "Thanks for offering though." Ashiya nods then steps out the door and shuts it quietly. "This is a cramped space for three guys to be living in." You say without noticing how rude it sounds. Urushihara looks back at you and gestures for you to take a seat by him.
"How do all of you fit in here? I'm cramped just by myself." You add as you walk to the back of the room where he is sitting and facing a laptop.

"We manage." He replies as he scoots over to make room for you in front of the laptop. "Here you'll need this." He says, handing you a headset that is plugged into the laptop.

"I forgot to ask what kind of job am I being set up with here?" You ask giving him a curious glance. You adjust the headset to your own preferred size, then put it on.

"You'll be a phone operator if they have an opening." He says smirking. He begins dialing a number and a woman, that sounds to be about the age of eighteen answers, "Thank you for calling the Dokodemo costumer service center how may I help you today?" Urushihara leans in and adjusts the mic to extend towards him.

"Hey Emi." He says as he turns the volume on the laptop down.

"Urushihara what are you doing!? I thought I told you not to bother me at work!?" She screams.

"I'm glad he turned the volume down." You think to yourself. "She sounds pretty mad."

"I know, I know but look can you not scream?" He says. "My new neighbor is looking for a job, would you happen to have any openings there?" He asks as he rolls his eyes.

"Oh. Yeah one of the ladies quit last week." She says as she calms her self down.

"Thanks Emi I'll walk her there later, meet us outside on your lunch break." He says getting ready to end the call.

"Wait you never told me you have a new neighbor!" She says furiously while trying to keep her voice volume low.

"Why should I have to tell you everything?" He says as he ends the call.

"Sorry about that." He says, removing the headset from your head. "She is a nut job." He sighs.

"What is she like your ex?" You ask impatiently.

"What? No! Is some body jealous?" He teases.

"Pff no." You pout turning your head.

"Trust me, there is nothing between us besides hatred." He says barely above a whisper. "Besides I've already promised you a date haven't I?" He says as he reaches for your hand which is resting on the floor.

You turn to him and begin to blush. "Yes, you have." You say with a slight smile.

"So how about tomorrow after work? I'll walk to get you and we make a home cooked meal?" He asks.
