(I changed her named to Athena)

Athena 's POV

I step out my apartment and head towards my job at the bakery. I am the manger of The Hot Tea Cup. It was the cutest little shop in New York. I have been managing it for a while, soon hopefully I will be able to buy it with the money I had been saving.
I go to work to see Jean the owner of the shop putting a bored across the shops door.

"Jean what are you doing?" I said walking up to her

"Hi Athena honey is I'd been meaning to speak to you but I just never found the right time, but I guess better late then ever, right so the shop it closed permanently. We sold out to a big company Castillo Co. they are buying the block. I am so sorry hunny but I'll see you soon." She said walking away not having to face me anymore

I didn't do anything else but stand there and realize I am out of a job. And I rent it coming soon. I started to panic and then I headed back to my apartment. I went and laid in bed to try to wrap my head around everything. Soon it was 5pm and I needed to do something. I went to look up on my phone for jobs. I seen on for a personal assistant at Castillo Co. I applied, then got up to make some dinner. When hitting the pot I heard a loud bang at the door.

"Athena baby, where's my payment I know your in there! I smell you cooking" DJ yelled through the door. I slowly tread over and open the door and smile at my prevy landlord.

"Hi DJ I will have the payment by next Wednesday please I just lost my job and need sometime" I smile sympathetically hoping he would comply

"Fine next Wednesday or we will arrange another form or payment" smiled looking at me up and down

"Remember sweetheart I don't do this for anyone only you" he smirked and walked away I shut my door crying because I had no idea what I was going to do for the money.

I heard a noise come from my phone. I walk over and pick it up. I look at my email and see I have an interview on Monday at 3 pm with the CEO of Castillo Co. Maybe thing might finally work out in my favour.

I finished my dinner and watched some tv and went to bed holding for the weekend to be gone with and hopefully I get the job.

———————————————

I get up and shower, and get changed into my interview outfit. I wore a black blouse and some cream coloured that were lose. I wore ballet flats and headed out for my interview. I take the buss and go to 4th street and get off I am met to a large building of Castillo Co. I have never seen this place before but then again it's down town New York. I never go here I could never afford 16 dollar bagels and 10 dollar coffee.

I walk into the building and go to the front desk. "Hi my names Athena, I have a-" I was cut off by the lady still looking at the computer.

"Through the doors, the elevator is to the left on the 42ed floor" she said without looking from her computer

"Oh ok thanks" I mumbled

Walking up to the interview there was about 20-30 women all dressed in tight dresses and high heels with makeup done to the max. I felt as if I was out of place. My clothes were off looking they were to big for me cause my neighbor gave then to me and I was wearing flats, I didn't have a lot of money to do things with. My hair was naturally blonde and curly. I didn't think I was gonna go a good job compared to all these women. I went over to a corner and took a seat and waited. About 1 and a half hours later and see a few girls come out with lipstick on those face, or there skirt was messed up.

"Athena Rogers your next" a girl yelled in from on of everyone they looked at me as if I had 2 heads and all

I got up and straighten out my skirt, I wish it would fit better but it was to big I can't afford clothes really I get everything second hand from my neighbour m, and it's free. She's a bit bigger then me about 3 sizes but free it better than nothing.

I slowly walk over to the model like women calling me in to the room. I made my way through the door I went to say thank you to the lady but the door slammed into me and I fell over. 

I quickly get myself up and walk over to the chair in front on the desk. There was a black chair the was facing back towards me.

"Athena Rogers, you have been to college for business and for the past 2 years you have managed a bakery, hmmmm impressive resume" his voice sounded familiar

"Yes I have also been attending hospitality courses to help build up my resume" I say with lack of confidence

The chair slowly turned around

"I have also..." my heart started racing and my palm instantly became sweaty

In front was my worst nightmare

Archer

Sitting there in all his glory, he is now a man. No long a teenage scary boy. He was a horrifying man. He is very handsome, sharp jaw line, tall braud shoulder, very very muscular. He looks like a Greek god sent from the heaven themselves.

"Hello again Athena" my heart stopped beating in that moment

He slowly looked me up and down

"Time has been kind to you"

"Arc-Cher" I could barely speak

"I still have an effect on you after all this time" I hated how he was so smug

"You are ceo of Castillo inc."  my mouth hung open

"Yep and soon to be owner. It was my uncles"

"I-I-I uh" I was at lost of words

"I'll tell you what, I'll give you the position see how you make out and we'll go from there" the was a slight pause him looking me over again
"See you Monday at 7 am and not a minute late" he said

"See you soon Theabear" he got up, smirked and left the room

I have no idea what I am going to do
