  Riele's Pov

I woke up early for my interview. I had my bath and dressed up. Coming out to the sitting room, I saw Aera fully dressed on the kitchen counter having breakfast. I joined her.

  "Good morning" she greeted putting a piece of omelette in her mouth. I smiled because she looks so cute when she's eating. I took my plate and started eating when my phone vibrated on the counter. It was Aunt Fiona.

"Good morning, Aunt Fiona"

"Good morning, Riele, how are you?"

"I'm good and you?"

"I'm great"

"Ok, how's Kyrie? Is he ok?"

"Yes, he is fine. I was about going to drop him at school when he requested he wanted to speak with you"

"Oh, well let me talk to him"

"Sure" she says and in few seconds I hear a tiny cute voice from the phone.

"Good morning mom"

"My baby, how are you?"

"I'm good, you?"

"Mommy is fine, she's about to go for her interview"

"Oh yeah"

"So how has your stay with Aunt Fiona been"

"Superb, she's nice as always, that doesn't still mean she's not strict"

"I understand, cupcake. Enjoy your day and don't allow any meany to bully you"

"Ok, mom, good luck in your in-tel..."

"Interview"

"Yeah that word"

"Thanks, and also standing up for yourself doesn't mean fighting, you can report to any teacher or principal if miss Reese isn't an option"

"Ok, mommy. Bye"

"Bye" he says then I guess he gave the phone to Aunt Fiona.

"Riele, don't worry you'll get the job"

"Thanks" I say before the call ends.

"How is he?" Aera asks

"He's fine, just being Kyrie"

"Ok, finish up or you'd beate for the interview it's 7:30 and it starts by 8"

"Yeah".

Few minutes later, I was done. We headed out when the Uber driver called signalling his arrival. I would have taken a cab but Aera insisted that we get an Uber so I wouldn't get all sweaty.

I was busy worrying and being nervous that I didn't notice the driver had stopped the car at the parking lot.
Aera taps me.

"Yeah"

"You can go in, I'm behind let me pay the driver"

"Ok" I say and alight from the car. I head inside where I meet the receptionist.

"Please, excuse me"

"Yes, ma'am"

"Um, I'm here for the interview"

"Oh, take the elevator, the ninth floor"

"Ok, thanks" I express my gratitude and walk towards the elevator. I click on the panel so the elevator would open and it seemed like it wasn't available yet. I was frustrated so I checked my watch

"7:56" I say to myself. Suddenly the door opens.

"Oh thank goodness" I say happily and walk in. The doors were about to close when someone holds it making it open. He steps in. He looks familiar.
