Laure eyed her reflection in the window, her hair wasn't combed and washed in weeks, her cheeks were flustered, her clothes dirty, and she probably smelled really bad.
But her eyes shone with something bright and new. Hope.
Figuring she had nothing left to lose she walked inside. She found it funny actually, how she'd spend months in front of this building but only now she had the guts to go inside.
She looked around a little, unsure what to do next. An employee walked in her direction. He made eye contact. "Hi, can I help you?" He said, a little confused cause he saw her everyday but she never actually came inside. "Um yes actually" she said "I heard you were hiring?"
The boy smiled "yes we are, come with me please, I'll take you to the head of our deparment"
She looked stunned. "You're actually going to give me a chance?"
"Yeah" he said, smiling even brighter. "You'd probably make a great collegue"
She laughed, trying to relieve the anxiousness.
"My name is Laure, by the way"
"Nice to meet you Laure" he said whilst opening the door to the staff room. " Jack! Come over here, please. Laure here is interested in a job in our mall. Please take the time for a job interview right away"
He turned to Laure, gestured her to walk in and said "Good luck Laure, by the way, my name's Blue"
