The Royal

I

I'm all alone for the past ten months since both of my parents died in the car accident going to airport. They are about to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary in Greece. Together with them is my little brother Charles. His been in coma for two months since that accident but since life is so evil to me, he also left me.

For that ten months, I become so miserable and in grief. My other relatives don't even care of me and I don't any have grandparents either both sides for they are also in heaven. I even rejected my suitor for 2 years who is Nathan with the reason that I have no time in relationship.

Today is Saturday, my rest day making me to grab this opportunity to seek for an extra source of income. For weekdays, I'm a waitress in a luxurious bar owned by my best friend Aliyah Ferrer.

I feel the warm blow of the summer air as I walk towards the given address printed in this flyer which I'll try to apply for. I really need to find a much high-payed job in order to send myself for this coming final semester thus I can have my Chemistry degree. I wasn't able to have a scholarship since my grades became low last semester due to those incidents.

Checking the name of the skyscraper as I reach my destination based on the flyer, Del Piero Inc. I walk inside asking the front desk officer about my intention. As I scan the room, I can say that everyone is so busy doing their respective duties.

I march going to the elevator, joining in the couple of other applicants for secretary. I just take my little chance in this position though my course isn't related and only this position I can deal with. I can't apply as an accountant with my knowledge, right?

The third interviewee is now in the hot seat and next is me. This is the first time I felt uneasy, I can't calm myself in the seat not that I'm feeling nervous. I know in myself I can handle this job interview.

The lady wearing a golden office dress said that it's my turn. I was about to ask that the third one is still in but she just push me inside causing me to out-balanced. I hear a crack of glass which I can tell it's my eyeglass.

I crawl for my glasses for I can't clearly see without it, then a man cough causing me to be rattle in finding my eyeglass. Oh God! But for pete's sake, the door just opened summoning a guy based on his scent and just totally step on my eyeglass. Noooo!

"No! My glasses!" I scream to the one who step on it without glancing on him. I can blurrly figured him.

"The fuck! Dad, who's this one?" he said without saying sorry to me. His nerves!

"I'm sorry Charlotte, right? Here just take a sit." the old man said and guides me to a seat opposite to his. "She's one of the applicants, son. So what makes you here?"

"I just what to tell you something very important Dad." in his manly voice. I notice lady before me isn't around the room. Where is she? I didn't notice her as I entered.

"Ok, I'll just finish this one if that can wait?" I didn't hear any response but I feel the other guy went out of the room for hearing th door close.

"I'm Mr. Alejandro Del Piero the CEO of Del Piero Inc. So, Miss Charlotte Fiorenza what makes you apply in here?" focusing now on me as I tuck my hair on my right ear. Of course, I see it in your flyers and I probably need a job. So he's interviewing me while I can't clearly see.

I was about to answer when suddenly everything just went black as I felt there was someone carrying me. And hearing the Mr. Alejando speak to the one who's carrying me.

"She's the red royal. Finally, we are done looking for this two."

Please, someone help me.
