"I have nothing, absolutely nothing" I said into my phone

"I have nothing, absolutely nothing" I said into my phone.

I had it tucked in between my tilted neck and shoulder as I skim through the hangers in my closest.

Sighing I wait for the response of my mother on the phone

Pots and pans moving in the background is all I hear as take I out a black blazer hanging on a black velvet hanger.

I shake my head in disapproval as I stick it back in the closest aggressively "Mom! Are you even listening to me" I said tiredly

I heard more metals clanging together and the sound of the water running before she finally reached the phone

"Sorry sweetie, I'm just trying to prepare breakfast for your dad before he wakes up. He's getting the call back today on if he can start out that branch in Tokyo" She said out of breath

"And I wanna make sure his day starts out good" she finished

"Well can you put a pause, I don't mean to sound desperate and needy but this is a time of some serious desperate measures" I said exaggerating the last line

I heard my mom chuckle on the other line "Honey don't you think your being a little-"

"Being a little what? Cautious, Careful, detailed"

"No. a little Extra is the right word" she said softly

"How is me calling my mom for fashion advice, resulting in me being extra" I said walking over to the foot of my bed and dropping myself down as I internally give up

It's an early Monday morning, and the streets of New York were as always as busy as ever.

My flat was a complete mess, and my room was mainly the cause of that. Dresses, skirts, blouses, blazers, scattered the floor, while my bed sheets were ruffled up and disoriented.

Any piece of clothing that was either inappropriate to wear, way too covered up or just something I should have never bought in the first place was on the floor.

And this is all because of my controlling father. After coming back from that party on Saturday the following Sunday he called me up to tell me this very important interview that he managed to get me at this uprising newspaper company.

It's sadly an internship that I am applying for but if I make it past the first trial I start to receive payment during the second trial.
