Freaking master of tensed nerves. What did just happen to me?

I met with Wade Samuels in person, and surprisingly enough, this wasn't at all the kind of interview one would think of. I have given many interviews in life but never did I had such a relaxing and cheerful one. Multiple things were going inside my brain, so much so that I could feel my nerves being jumpy in there. I would also like to add how my heart was misbehaving and opposing my mind's say.

I'm not even kidding.

Who would've even thought that one random message from Wade Samuels will bring such a grand change in my life? He was being professional when he had to, but I found out he is quite similar to how Cara, Ben, and Henry described him as; genuine, caring, and diligent. Oh, and really good-looking. I felt quite intimidated by his presence, but I stayed as calm and cool as I could. Only God knows how hard it was for me to not notice his gorgeous smile, assertive voice, and regal-like aura. Although he was wearing an informal white collared shirt with dark jeans; but man... he is no less than a top model. The smart black shades of his', the rolled shirt up to his elbow, and the handsome silver watch he was wearing; dang, I was successfully impressed.

I think I should've worn my semi-formal shirt and pants instead of the maroon collar dress. I should've even clipped up my hair, but I chose to do my simple and quick twisty hairstyle. I'm not a fan of makeup and only apply it whenever there's a big event or a family celebration. I usually go with the normal stuff like sometimes applying a fine stroke of eyeliner, a light-colored lip balm, and my face cream. I rarely use foundation and prefer avoiding mascara. In my opinion, applying mascara on a regular basis is torturous to our fragile eyelashes. I think my eyelashes are just fine the way they are. Probably, my decision to go with just a lip balm with a very fine layer of eyeliner was more than enough. I love being as natural as I could because that's when I feel the most comfortable and confident.

But honestly though... what just happened within me during the interview?

Although I was talking quite calmly with Wade, inside of me a completely different scenario was going on. Whatever that I spoke, those words just came naturally to me at the spot. I did have a few ideas to discuss with them, but others just come instantly. I wouldn't say that I wasn't nervous to come face-to-face with him this soon, but I won't even say that I didn't enjoy it. I felt comfortable talking with him, seeing that it was our first time meeting one another. I was laughing a lot, just like I do with Cara and Ben. Wade did make me feel relaxed, and so did Tori.

Tori's mysterious identity reveal was quite a bummer; especially for Cara. The moment Ben got to know about who Tori is, he screamed at the top of his lungs. He believes that meeting Tori most unexpectedly is proof that these two are meant to connect.

Yes, Cara and I told him everything right after her morning shift.

And man, he was so pissed at first. He almost left the Drive in anger, stating that he won't talk to us anymore. Pfft. Of course, he was bluffing. However, as we had to stop him from overreacting and let go of the cold shoulder he was giving us, we gave him the good news of me passing the interview. And that was it. That was enough to break the ice and encounter the utterly sentimental cry baby, Benny.
