Today was the day when I had my interview with Seth Rutherford I had my hair curled by my sister and my makeup done. I wanted everything to be simple.  I grabbed a cab and head towards the directions given. I arrive 15 minutes early and Ms. Henry is waiting at the front of the building.

" Ms. Henry!" I yell in disbelief, my dreams are finally coming together.

" Natalie my love, I am so glad you made it!" She says giving me a kiss on my cheek.

" Shall we go in to meet Seth ?" She says beaming from excitement.

" Seth?" I say confused, she calls him by his first name?

" Oh silly that's his first name, but you don't call him that he only lets his family call him that. To you its Mr. Rutherford" she says motioning me to the door of the building.

" Wait, so your his..." I say trying to think of their relationship.

" I am his brother's wife so I am his sister in law" She says excitedly.

" I didn't want to change my last name to Rutherford I liked Vanessa Henry and James my husband didn't mind either" She said.

" Interesting" I say and open the door for her to go inside. I found it peculiar that she married Seth's brother and why hadn't he taken over this company he must be older. Why did Seth?

We went into the elevator and landed on the main floor. I was greeted with a tall man who was 6'0 feet, he had sea blue or greenish eyes they were like the changing ones. Was it blue? Or Green? His dark hair was slick back from gel and he was clean shaved. He was in a tuxedo and waiting for someone starring at his watch impatiently. You could see he was impatient he wanted everything to be done fast. Is this Seth? I thought and soon my suspicion was confirmed.

" Seth my baby" I heard Ms. Henry yell grabbing the two coffee's in-front of me. You see Seth's face light up with his perfect pearly white teeth. She hands me one of the cups of coffee. Seth notices my presence and his smile fades. What's with this guy? 

" Vanessa my sissy made it!" He says walking towards the elevator we came from presses the elevators button to open. 

"Floor 60" He says to the watchmen.  

So whenever I go on elevators my heart drops, I feel panicky. It's not bad if it's one or two floors on an elevator but if we are in a building going to floor 60 OH HELL NAW! 

My hands start getting sweaty and I am about to have a panic attack, and on top of that I have a freaking steaming hot cup of coffee in my hand. I hold on to the elevator bar my hands getting white. This guy didn't even acknowledge me!

" Vanessa where's my coffee" He says you could hear the disappointment laced in his voice.

" Your the one who had them in-front of you, I wasn't going to let Ms. Claire not have coffee its manners." She says upset.

"Great, you gave my cup of coffee to a stranger." Seth says shaking his head.

" You can have mine Mr. Rutherford" I say just trying to get rid of this coffee in my hand. Why is this elevator moving so freakin slow?

" No I am fine" He says without even looking at me.

" Please take it. I'm not much of a coffee drinker anyways." I say and I slowly move the cup forward for him to take. He turns around, "There's a coffee machine in my office. I would suggest you to drink up Ms. Claire your going to need all the energy in the world with an interview with me." He says looking at me sternly. 

"Got it" I say nodding my head in agreement. The knot in my stomach gets tighter and suddenly the elevator rings opening the door to floor 60.

It was pin drop silence, and everyone turn around to see who's coming. Seth yells " Everyone back to work, you don't need to know who comes every single time the elevator rings. I have a receptionist for a reason." He says sends death glares to everyone in the office.
