Sarah Sterling started the day

like usual. Rushing around her small apartment with grey peeling walls with a area that could only fit a small kitchen, a small square table meant for one, A wooden chair,and a bed that didn't accommodate her size. She didn't have time for breakfast let alone enough money. She barley made enough money to pay rent. She was running late for her job interview and she couldn't afford to mess this up,literally. She had just enough money to finish business school but couldn't find anyone to hire her or interview her, so she had to settle for meager jobs. Jobs like mowing lawns for people, taking care of kids, and grooming peoples pets because they were to lazy to do it or because she did it cheaper than pet smart or where ever the owners got it done professionally. She didn't care what there reasons were as long as she got paid. Finally she got the chance of a lifetime. She was going around neighborhoods looking for work. She knocked a little harder than she meant to and regretted it deeply but it wasn't like she could take back she had already done. Out walked a man,a good looking older gentleman, with salt and pepper hair,crows feet that seemed to come from smiling more than from his growing age, but he stood tall and straight with his shoulders pushed back and his head held high. He seemed to have an aura or air of seriousness and confidence that seemed to surrounded him permanently. She didn't understand why a confident man like him lived in suburban neighborhood like this but she didn't let her curiosity get the best her "hello sir do you have kids,pets or need your lawn mowed" he just stood there and stared at her making her uncomfortable but she stayed strong. He finally openeshort. mouth but said something unexpected " Do you have a business degree" to say she was surprised would be an understatement.

Pete Nottingham was enjoying his last day of being the owner of Nottingham Inc. Sleeping all day and lazing around his quarters seemed to him like the best thing to do,but then he realized he couldn't just laze around he had to hire a new P.A (personal assistant) for his son. You would that no his son could do it himself but he just couldn't trust him. Sure his son had the right credentials but he was sure his son would hire a P.A. he thought was physically attractive and didn't have common sense or the smarts for the job, but could be his play thing and Mr.Nottingham couldn't have that he need to find a new P.A. and fast. Just as he was about to go online and put up an add for a new P.A. his doorbell rang. He wasn't sure who it was because he wasn't expecting anyone and he was sure his wife was still out with her friends having fun and buying essentials. He was going to wait till the person left but his conscious wouldn't let him and he was glad it didn't.
