Baggage Claim

Chapter 3

I go down stairs to grab something to eat. I grab an apple and sit at the counter in the kitchen and pick up the newspaper. Maybe I can look for a job in here, I think to myself. I page through until I reach the jobs. There are about 30 different options. Dentist? No, I would have to work with dad. Waiter? No. Bartender? No. No no no, these are all wrong. I continue looking down the lists. I pick up the juicy green apple. I move the apple closer to my mouth but I drop it, it hits the floor with a thud. My heart skips a beat. I can't believe it! My favorite artist, Maria Cabello, is looking for an assistant! I need to get this job! It's only an internship but I could actually have a chance to work with THE Maria Cabello! I need to get an interview! I think excitedly. I read the details. This job is in California. I can't fly all the way there for a job interview. I look back at the text. 'Interviews can be done over Skype.' Yes! I still have a chance!

I fill out all the required information online and wait for the call. I get up from my desk. I walk over to my dresser and pick up the large sketch book. I run my fingers down the spine. I haven't drawn in a long time. I only draw when I need to distract myself. I'm so nervous, I would be so upset if I didn't get the job. I sit on my bed, back pressed against the wall. I flip to a new page and start sketching. I think of what to draw and Daniel and Holly pop into my head. I sketch them each on a page. I don't have a recent picture so I draw from memory. I draw Daniel first. Brown hair, blue eyes that sparkle with a sort of childish mischief, tanned skin and natural pink lips. I finish drawing him, gosh I miss him! Wait did I just say I miss my brother?! I guess I do. I begin sketching Holly and add some colour. Her brown hair falls over her shoulders, her blue eyes sparkle and her lips a soft pink. She wears a light blue dress and holds a white flower. I place my sketch book next to me and lie back, resting my head on the wall. I close my eyes and take in the silence. My phone buzzes on my desk. I jump up and answer. "Hello."
"Hello, Miss White?" A lady says on the other end.
"Yes." I say.
"I am calling about your job application and we would like to organize an interview." She says. I stand with my phone pressed against my ear. They want to interview me!
"Miss White?"
"Uh... Yes"
"Great, I see here it says you live in Manchester, England correct?"
"Correct."
"Ok, we will have someone interview via Skype, is that alright?"
"It's great thank you." I say. She hangs up. I let out a small squeal of excitement and happiness.
