After months of turmoil having to go through the failings and unremarkable achievements of the interns, their internship has finally ended. Nobody is more happy than I am.

According to formalities, I presented the interns with their certificates and evaluation of their progress. Now that all of them are gone, I can loosen up a little now.

I picked up the call at the fifth ring. "This is Ms. Veinar, what is it?"

"You mean 'Dr. Veinar'," the lovable voice came from the other side. "Where are you?"

"Oh, Nyra Leona! For your information, I'm at a club drinking my fifteenth shot. Why?"

She groaned into the phone. How cute. "Viollette Blaire graduated this year and she signed up for a position in the organisation. More specifically, the position directly under you."

"Okay...? So?"

"I'll ask her for an interview because she seem capable, but I'll keep a close eye on her-"

"Alright, alright!" I slurred into the phone. Is it 'because I'm tired I can't hold my alcohol?

"There are many ways to help me, depending on which one you're planning to go through with." Screaming internally.
