A/N: okay so I'm kinda having writer's block for my stories so deal with me. Enjoy my lovelies! ( ˘ ³˘)♥︎
I woke up up early in the morning Jasper, Horace, and Estella were still sleeping of course.
Estella always had a dream of becoming a fashion designer like I was turning into honestly, I wanted her to live her dreams like I was so...today I'm gonna ask the Baroness if she can hire her.
I really do hope she says yes.
Anyway, I put on a simple work outfit that looked stylish of course,After that I went into the elevator and descended downward.
I stepped out and Hailed a cab, I told him the address as he drove.
————————————
"Y/N!" Kaitlyn greeted from the stairway. I smiled and hugged her, we both worked on outfits and talked.
The Baroness was nowhere to be found but I didn't worry about it. It had been a few hours and the doors flinged open.
The Baroness strutted through the doorway with guards holding the doors open for her.
"Grubby girl. Get me lunch." She asked, well actually ordered me
"Soy salmon, lemon-zest risotto, cucumber sliced into two-inch diagonals at an eighth of an inch width sprinkled with seven leaves of parsley, shredded, not torn." I absentmindedly wrote it on my notepad. I nodded and hurried to get her order.
It took a flash for them to give me the order since they heard it's for the Baroness. I quickly grabbed a tray and put her lunch on it just to make it a bit more presentable.
When I entered the room the Baroness was having a conference, I didn't really know what to do so I stood there.
"As the department stores that stock your range, we thought perhaps we could give you some input." One of them said.
"Feedback."
"Oh, great. I'll start, shall I?" She said.
"My feedback." she continued.
"You're short, you're fat, you smell like an anchovy, you're color-blind, but you pretend you aren't."
"You're a man who can't take responsibility."
"Your revenues are down 15%, your foot traffic by 12 and a half.
Yes, I do my own research.
Your store hasn't been refurbished since the Blitz.
People don't know whether to buy a frock or duck and cover.
And most of the funds meant for refurbs are being embezzled by you, stashing them in Swiss bank account number 32254766 to be precise.
That's me. Your turn." She read like they were a actual book. I held in a giggled as they got up, ashamed
"Good day" she said as they walked out. The door closed and she whispered in annoyance.
"Imbeciles." I giggled and her head shot up.
"Lunch, Now." I walked over to her desk and placed it down carefully. She opened the lid and looked a little impressed.
"Oh. Finally, someone competent." she said about to eat her lunch, then the door burst open and a man yelped.
"And someone not. This is my lawyer, Roger." She introduced with no expression in her voice or face.
"Although he spends most of his time playing piano in a dingy little bar, actually, he's a good lawyer." she continued.
He said Hi and I did as well, "piano's nice" I complemented.
"Box up my lunch, Estella." We walked out of her office and proceeded to the car. I got in after Baroness, we sat in silence as I sketched.
"Y/N, have you eaten anything?" she asked looking at me I shook my head no. She looked at me with a stern face,
"Y/N, you must eat. Here." she got a forkful of salmon and put it up to my mouth.
"No- I'm really not hungry-"
"Y/N. Open." she said more sternly. I opened my mouth and took a bite.
"Good girl." she smirked and resumed eating, a few seconds later she threw her napkin into the box and threw it out the window. My faced turned red, I clearly wasn't doing enough to hide it, the Baroness noticed.
"Y/N. Your all red." She raised her eyebrow, I quickly changed the subject.
"Baroness, I have a question."
"continue." She looked at me.
"Well, there is this girl, Estella, she very talented in fashion, and I was wondering if you could hire her?"
She looked surprised but she spoke normally.
"I'm shocked, no one has ever had the gut's to say that. So, I guess I could. Tell her she can work her for two weeks we'll see how it goes." She said as the car came to a stop. She got out of the car as I followed her,
"Keep up, Y/N" she strutted through her house, we entered a room and she went behind a changing area.
"Y/N, Make the bodice pencil thin." She peeked through the wall, I quickly sketch it. She came out in a fashionable outfit,
"Jewels." The guards opened a vault that was filled with necklaces. I peeked inside and thought this knowledge would be useful but I don't know why.
"Y/N, did you make it pencil thin?" She exited the changing area.
She suddenly turned to Jefferey and asked.
"All right, how do I look?"
"Fabulous"
"Well I know
"Show me."
"Mhm" I flipped my sketchbook around and showed her.
"How would you have done it?" she asked. I was a little shocked at first but I sketched it how I would've done it.
"Hmm. I think you're...something." She walked off and everyone followed her. I didn't see her for the whole day. I decided to go back to my family.
Y/N: The Baroness said she thinks I'm something!
Jasper: That's great! She's noticing you have talent.
Estella: and you're absolutely stunning.
Horace: right!
I blushed and hit them playfully on the shoulder.
Y/N: Estella, how would you like a job at The House of Baroness?
Estella gasped then smiled.
Estella: You didn't!
She got up and hugged me.
"Thank you..." she whispered.
