Tia's pov :
There are moments in our lives when we find ourselves trapped, maybe in our feelings, our memories or our choices. Briefly, in our deeds. And when these moments come, we have to be prepared and fight the silence within our hearts to find the answers we need.
I regret a lot of decisions I have taken. However, I'm dealing with the consequences so far.
Being a scientist is one of my decisions that I haven't regretted yet. When I graduated from MIT, I was expecting a crucial change in my life. Yet, nothing happened, I moved from a desperate student to a desperate civilian searching for a job.
I stood in front of the mirror, watching my pale face, tired eyes and Cold expressions. What have I done to myself? I don't feel human anymore , something is haunting me , preventing me from living , those images from my past, when I was a child. I stood there watching my mother making love with a stranger. Did I say 'a stranger'? Well I meant 'STRANGERS'. My father, the poor man was totally in love, he trusted her, but she betrayed him in front of me: Her daughter whom she never treated as her child.
Three years later, my father found out about her dirty games. Therefore, he took me and left.
But he didn't realize that he only took a piece of me because I left the rest with her.
"Tia, you're late for that job interview at S.T.A.R labs or whatever it is." I heard my father yelling from the kitchen.
Holy crap! I am late for my dream job interview. I grabbed my backpack and left my room. OF course, I have never been punctual.
"Bye Daddy" I shouted then got into my car.
S.T.A.R labs has been my physics heaven since my teenage years. I've always had a crush on Harrison Wells, The man who made the impossible seem nothing, His revolutionary thinking simply changed our world, and if today I adore physics more than anything in this world , that's something I thank him for.
I stopped my car, looking at the building amazed by how wonderful it looked from the outside; I've never thought it would be this huge or this magnificent disc-like masterpiece.
"Hello miss, how can I help you" The receptionist affirmed
"I-" I was very astonished to the point I couldn't talk correctly.
"Um miss? Are you okay" The blond affirmed
"I am here for the nuclear engineer job interview" I responded smiling.
"Oh my god, you should be miss knight. My apologies, Mr. Wells is expecting you in his office, follow me please."
We walked around the building, I wouldn't wish for more, now I may die in peace. I have to stop acting weird; don't want them to think I'm obsessed or paranoid.
"Here we are, miss, thank you for your patience" The receptionist said as she left the hall.
"Am I in the future?" this place is like a sci-fi movie décor.
"No you are still in the real world miss knight" I heard a male husky voice saying.
My heartbeat started racing as I turned to face the man, "Harrison Wells. I wish I'm not dreaming, please Tia, don't be dreaming. He's handsome."
"Um. You're not dreaming. I guess." Harrison said with a charming grin, I could see his cute dimples from here. WAIT.. "DID I SAY THAT OUT LOUD?"
"So, miss knight you're here for the interview. Sit please" he said
