Jasmine pov

Well my mom always told me to take God's blessing before doing something good. So ya that's why I am standing in front of goddess durga praying for my best performance in the interview.

I was climbing down temple stairs when a middle aged woman who was reciprocating my steps passed by me. I felt like I have seen her somewhere but before my thoughts could go further that lady started feeling dizzy and was about to faint when I caught her in time.

"Are you okay aunty? " I asked making her sit on the stairs.

"Yeah thank you beta (child). " she said with a weak smile.

I look at her and she looked tired.

"Are you sure, you are ok?" I asked again as it seems like she will faint any moment.

She smiled at me "I am fine don't worry, its just I didn't have my breakfast in the morning and also walked all the way down here so that's why."

Oh I do had an idea about this. My mother is same as this her. She also forget things and I have to scold her like a child. I smiled remembering my mom's cute puppy face at that time.

" It's not good for your health,you know. Skipping breakfast can cause many problems. Next time eat something before going anywhere." I scolded her a little while finding a cookie packet in my bag which I always keep with myself as no one know when I will get hungry and what if at that time I am in office and my boss restrict me from steeping out of my working cabin or office. Moreover these cookies will come in use when all food on this earth will be finished or vanished. Ya I know my thinking is wierd, you guys don't have to inform me (cheesy smile).

"Aunty eat this while I will bring you juice and ya I will not take no as an answer. " I try to say with a serious face.

She smiled with shaking head "Fine my lord I will."

I grin and brought her juice glass.

"What your name?" she asked in between.

"Jasmine" I replied and she smiled.

"Beautiful name"

"Thank you" I give her a shy smile. Well its feel wierd getting compliments from a stranger and I am also not so good with them.

"Where are you? I will ask my driver to drop you." she offered.

"It's ok I was just going near by company for job interview and I have my own ride." I decline politely while showing her my scooty keys in my fingers. Suddenly my eyes divert to my watch and I curse under my breath. I was definitely 10 minutes late already.

"Sorry I need to go aunty I am getting late." I say while getting.

"Oh I am so sorry to make you late but thank you so much for your help Jasmine. Today's youngsters are so disrespectful but you are totally opposite to them just like my children." Ya she was right today's generation is so much into technology that they don't have a single second to help others.

"It's totally fine aunty. Bye see you."

I started walking in the direction of my two wheelers when she yelled "All the best." I turn and wave at her with a genuine smile which only lasted for a two seconds. I started getting stressed about the interview. I hope I get the this job. I really need this one.
