I stand by the corner of the waiting room because the students who came earlier than I did for the interview have occupied the seats.
So you might wonder why I finally resolved to go to the interview
Few minutes earlier
I stop struggling with opening my candy and stare at her puzzled "you did what?"
A ringing silence follows
"No, Wait, what? You guys did what," I ask; to be sure I heard correctly.
Samantha huffs and repeats what she said earlier, "I said, Karen and I submitted your name and also went around telling students to vote for you".
"Why would you guys do that, I ask, shock and surprise evident in my tone".
"We thought you wanted it", Karen speaks up.
"I never said I wanted it".
"You did".
"When did I say that?"
"Junior year,"
I scrunch my nose up in confusion, trying to remember when I said that.
seeing my puzzled expression she explains "it was during a girl time like this , during the nomination and election period".
Oh I remember.
"But I remember telling you", I start to recall what I said that night. "I told you I liked the position but I wouldn't go for it because Penelope has always wanted it and I do not need to make my senior year any more stressful".
Everywhere remained silent for some minutes
"Did you all know about this". I ask, referring to Piper and flora who have been quiet this whole time.
"Err I did, but that was after the election". Flora defends.
My eyes shift to Piper "I know nothing about this", she raises her hands in surrender.
"So what am I going to do right now".
"Go for the interview, Piper quips".
"No".
"But you are the right person for this position", she encourages.
"What about Penelope I ask, I know I don't like her because she can be a bitch but taking the position she always wanted isn't a pleasant thing to do".
"If it will make you feel better, Penelope has not returned to school yet, she is still in Hawaii and according to her instagram story which I checked about 20minutes ago she is packing for her trip back to this place ". Samantha informs me.
"And we wouldn't want the school giving the post to a random person because the two people nominated did not show up for the interview", Flora adds.
"I can go with you", piper volunteers.
"Are you guys sure about this?" I ask.
"Yeah, we are, they answer.
I huff and mutter "this is too much for me to absorb this afternoon".
"Please", Samantha pouts and gives me her puppy eyes, which nobody on planet earth can resist. "Just do this for us".
I roll my eyes "ok i will". I finally gave in.
A full fledged grin breaks out on their faces and Samantha pumps her fist in the air and shouts yeah.
"Now go find something good to wear because wearing a sweatpants and graphic tee doesn't make a good Impression on the interviewers".
