Find a guy who will ruin your lipstick not your mascara.
-Louis

It's been 11 days since I've started to search for a job and guess what ? None of them wants to hire me. I'm already tired of filling up and submitting my résumé everyday ,waiting their phone calls just to end up with nothing but rejection. I don't have enough budget for myself and I'm running out of food .

I closed my eyes and try my best not think any problem because today is my 8th interview so far at the company called W. Collins empire. I silently pray hoping that this day is my lucky day.

After a minute of waiting, I heard my name called by the secretary. I stood up from my seat and release a sigh before following the secretary into Mr Collins office. My palms begin to sweat and my heart begin to race as usual.

Finally we reached into his office and the secretary leave us alone. The nervous inside of me only grows worse as I stood up in front of the good looking man. his eyes were deep blue and his red Lips were firm and sensual, he looks like a model in the magazine and I assumed that he's around 30.

He smiled at me and he gestured me to sit down. I felt my cheeks become hot when he smiled at me again.

" Ms Grae " he begins " your resume is quite impressive ".

" thank you sir " I said.

" so it's says that you graduated in New York .."

" yes" I simply replied.

" is this your first job interview?" He asked.

" no sir, actually this is my 8th interview " I said while fiddling my bracelet. He silently stared at me before he begin to speak.

"Well, what do you think is the reason why they aren't hiring you?" He asked.

" I have no idea about that sir, " I honestly said. I felt My cheek begin to heat again as I felt embarrassed.

" look Ms Grae, I received a call today from my old friend and he told me something about you before your interview.. " he said and I frowned.

" a call from who?" I asked. My heart begin to pound as I wait for his answer. He let out a breath before answering .

" styles, from H.e.s company " he said and my mouth fell open in shock. Anger starting to spit on my stomach as I started to think the best word to say. This is his plan. To ruin every job interview I have.

" does it matter if he called you?. I know he told you some shitty lies for you not to hired me. please sir don't believe in him, just give me a chance and I assure you that I can perform the position that you will assign to me " I said but he remain silent. He shook his head before he speak.

" I'm sorry , but you don't belong here " is all he can say. I tried my best to controlled myself not to say some awful words at him. I shook my head in devastated as I stood up from my sit and stomp over to the door. Before I slammed the door behind me I raise my middle finger to him , leaving him with shock. I blinked away the tears that has formed to my eyes and passed those people who were starring at me.

I stormed out the building, anger still pumping through my vein as I silently cursed his name in the air. I stepped into street before I realized it there's a car coming into me. Oh shit no!

I sucked in a breath and force my body to move but I cant. Suddenly I felt a large palm on my arm, pulling me away from the street. I felt my back fell onto someones chest. Hardly.

Everything was black and my body felt numb as I tried to analyze what just happened . I felt a large arm clung around my back to support me. It took me a few minutes before I opened my eyes. Everything around me was blur and my head starting to throb . I move my eyes up onto who was holding but I can't clearly figured out who it is. Even though I can't see clear who it was., I can say that he's a man. My hero
