There I was. I was making it. Everything I had dreamed of, was finally happening.I couldn't believe I was actually Everton's sports director, it seemed unbelievable, but it was me, it was my life. I was standing in front of the Everton football club's offices.
Since I was a kid, I knew I wanted to work in football in some way. It's been hard, but I know I'm making the right decision, I'm doing what makes me happy.
I entered the offices, and my first thought was how huge this place is, damn, nothing compared to the last club I worked in, this is the fucking premier league.
I arrived to the president's office, where I was told to go when I arrived.
I knocked at the door softly.
"Come in!" I heard a voice say.
I entered the room, the president was sitting in his desk with a smile on his face.
"Good morning Ms Greenwood." He greeted me.
"Good morning Sir." I responded nervously.
"You can sit there." He said while pointing the chair I was standing next to.
"Oh, thanks." I smiled and sat on the chair.
"Nice to meet you, my name is Bill Kenwright. I wanted to welcome you to our club, I'm so excited for what you can give us." He smiled.
"Thank you so much, nice to meet you too. I'm so thankful for this opportunity, I won't let you down." I assured him.
"Great to know, let me give you a tip."
"Okay."
"This is nothing similar to your other job, people are a lot more judgy here, don't let that discourage you, you are here for a reason, remember that." He said.
What a sweet person.
"I will, thank you so much." I smiled.
"You will start working tomorrow, I will introduce you to the general director. He is the person you are going to work with the most, so I believe he is the person you should meet first." He explained.
"Okay, thank you so much. Should I come here tomorrow as well when I arrive?"
"That would be great, Greenwood, I'll tell him to be here tomorrow as well. See you tomorrow then, here at 9am." He said.
"Thank you Mr Kenwright." I stood up.
"Your welcome Ms Greenwood."
I left the room then and went to what is going to be my home from now on. I was exhausted, I arrived here today, and the trip was so long to me because of how nervous I was.

The next day arrived, I woke up half a hour earlier than I had to because I couldn't sleep. I was excited.
I arrived at the president's office at 8:55. I just stood there, I didn't know what to do. A minute later, I saw a man approaching me.
"Hello, who are you?" He asked.
"I'm Victoria Greenwood, what about you?" I answered.
"My name is Niall Horan, I'm the club's general director. Do you need something? I don't think I've seen you here before." He raised and eyebrow while saying that and then gave me a weird look.
"I'm the new sports director, I believe we were supposed to meet today."
"Oh. It's you. I guess We just met." He sounded very surprised.
