"Oh god, I'm about to throw up."
It's Remington's first day of work but instead of strutting into the office with the confidence she wishes she had, she is hiding in her car and trying to give herself a pep talk. Keyword, trying.
"Alright Remi, you're gonna walk in there like a bad bitch and make lots of new friends and everyone's gonna love you. Okay? Okay."
And with that, she forces herself to get out of the car and walk to the office building. She knows she looks good on the outside, with her perfectly pressed brown high-waisted trousers and her white blouse. But on the inside, Remington's a nervous wreck. She's just trying her best not to show it.
"Hi, are you Remington?" A slightly older looking woman with a warm smile greets her in the lobby.
"Yes, that's me. I usually go by Remi, though."
The woman sticks her hand out. "I'm Samantha, but you can call me Sam. I'll be showing you around today."
Remington grabs her hand, shaking it firmly. "Nice to meet you, Sam."
"Alright, I'll give you a quick tour and then we have a meeting to catch. Are you ready?"
The young journalist sucks in a breath. "Yeah, let's do this."
Samantha shows her the office area, the conference rooms, the printing station, the coffee-making station, and several other places. The company only really occupies the fifth floor, the others are rented out to other businesses. But miraculously, everything fits and flows smoothly.
"Okay, it's about time for our department meeting." Sam announces after checking her watch. "We're a little early, but it will give me some time to introduce you."
The two women head back over to the conference room and the seasoned journalist goes in first. Remington follows closely behind, noticing that there are already two other people in the room, a man and a woman.
"Guys, this is Remington. Remington, meet Namjoon and Clara."
Her first impression of Namjoon is that he looks incredibly smart. She isn't sure if it's the Polo sweater or the wire framed glasses perched on the bridge of his nose, but Remi would bet 100 bucks that his IQ is higher than hers.
"Hey, welcome to the team." He flashes her a friendly, dimpled smile.
Well, at least he's not stuck up.
Clara, on the other hand, offers her nothing more than a tight lipped grin and a small nod of acknowledgement. She comes off as one of those older ladies who like to do their work and keep to themselves. And Remi can respect that.
Just as they get to their seats, a powerhouse of a woman strides through the door. Remington instantly recognizes her as Mrs. Huxley, her new boss. She was intimidating over video call, which means she's absolutely terrifying in person.
