"Morning, honey. You need to wake up. It's 7.34 am already. You're going to be late for your interview. Get up! You do-"

I woke up to the sound of my mom on the phone. I scratch a few parts of my body here and there, not because it itches but out of irritation. I lazily drag my body up to get the phone before my mom speaks any longer. I will seriously be late if she keeps talking. 

I don't know what she's saying. I only have about half an hour left before I have to leave.

I jog a little to get the phone and push the answer button, "Yeah, Mom I'm up." I walk to my bathroom to brush my teeth. I had already showered last night in case this might happen and thank God I showered, if not I would've gotten disqualified.

I only slept for an hour since I spent most of my time rehearsing my speech for the interview. I was so nervous that I threw up all of my dinner but never mind that. It's not like a piece of bread can be called dinner, right? Now my stomach was anything but fine.

After I finished brushing my teeth and washing my face, I walk back to my room. I take the suit that I chose last night and put it on the bed. I turn around to face the big mirror beside my closet door and stare at my body.

I don't mean to brag, but I have to say that I am proud of my body. My body is a work of art. I hit the gym often in the last few years since I left high school.

To be honest, back then when I was still in high school, I wasn't a part of the popular kids. They lived in chaos; doing things like drinking and driving and other things of that nature. They used to bully me because I was obese.

People stared at me like was some kind of alien. There were times when they made fun of my physical appearance when I walked, passed them. They would pretend to fall because "I was heavy enough to shake the ground" whenever I walked.

It made me sad every time they did that. My time in high school was hell and I had gone through that for the past years alone without any friends.

That's when I made a decision to lose weight. I had been through hell in high school and I didn't want that to happen twice in my life.

The first step to losing weight was never easy, especially for someone who weighed over 120 kg. I lost count of my weight after 120 kg because the equipment could not weigh me any more than that, so I think I was heavier.

At first, it was really tough for me and there were times when I felt like giving up, but remembering my past kept me motivated enough to keep me moving to where I am now. 

Now look at me, five years later after graduating from high school. It makes me proud of myself for how far I've come. If I gave up then I wouldn't be where I am now.

I've got a six-pack and nothing makes me prouder than my V line on both sides of my upper legs. It was carved perfectly.

In spite of my high school experience back then, I was popular in college. Girls flirted with me and some even tried to make out with me. 

My college time was wild. I was like a Sex God in college, because every girl I had sex with would always come back to me for another round. Well, I could be considered hot.

I was so into myself that when I got back to reality I only had 10 minutes left to get ready. I dressed as quickly and take off.

I arrived just in time when my name was called into the office. I barely got here on time and I know it.

"Mr. Kian, nice to meet you. I'm Lance Coleman." He smiles and I just nod. "Okay let's begin now."

He started asking questions about my college and my grades. I was so nervous that sometimes I stutter and sometimes I just keep my mouth shut to prevent embarrassing myself. I desperately need this job.

An hour has passed and I'm still in the office. For most of the time, the interviewer just studied my resume while I just watch him whenever he made a move.

After some time, he began to talk, "Alright then. Thank you for your time." He closes my file and walks me to the door. I got so confused that I couldn't help but ask.

"I'm sorry, Mr.Coleman but did I get rejected?"

He didn't answer immediately. He offers his hand to shake.

"Congratulation, Mr. Kian. You got accepted."I can't contain my happiness and smile as wide as I can. I can't believe it. "Thank you, sir." And shake his hand before leaving.

I was about to leave when Mr. Coleman's voice stop me. "Where are you going?" he asks. "I-I'm going home." I stutter.

"You were supposed to start work now."

"I'm sorry, what?"

"It's a policy in Crowdest. Once you were accepted, you were expected to start working right away."

Oh, crap! I didn't see that coming. "Okay, sir. R-right away."
