I don't put on any make-up, because I, as I said before, want to impress him with who I am, not my face.

The elevator was taken what seemed like forever for a man, so I ran up the stairs. It's a good thing I did track in high school. I get to the 20th floor with a minute to be spared, I check in with yet another secretary, and sat down. Here goes nothing.

Name after name was called, and yet mine wasn't. I plug in my earbuds because I didn't want to hear about how sexy or hot Mr. Mason was, I just wanted to get the job.
