LIES

chapter 4

I choose to wear my black office pants paired with a white shirt with a little touch of makeup.

I don't usually apply makeup but whenever I do it boosts my confidence and today I need confidence more than anything.
I drink my black coffee to refresh my mind and its finally time to leave.

I take a bus to Bits main office I will definitely need a car if I get this job.

I reach there at 8 45 and I am stunned for a minute when the building comes into view it's a squat tower made of glass and concrete and is highest of all of the buildings in this area

I breathe in and step inside pushing huge glass doors.

The women at the front desk told me to wait so I sit on a black sofa in the waiting area.

I am so nervous at this point. what if I didn't get this job? I am not sure that I am prepared for an interview.
Well, what could I have practised for an assistant job anyway?

Just as I was going to explode with nervousness I see Liam coming out of the elevator. He walks toward me

"Hey you look amazing," he says eyeing me.

He is wearing a black suit which makes him look older mature and....very handsome

"Who is interviewing me?" I ask him while we walk to the elevator and he presses the button for 5 the floor

"I am"

Wait what? he will be my boss I don't even know what is his position and how I feel about it.

"What's your job?"

"I am the head of the marketing department"

Holy shit.

The elevator stops and we step out.

Why didn't I think of this before maybe because he is too young but he is john's friends so probably his father is also rich and helped him to get this job like John's father. I laugh at my own ridiculous theory

We walk in silence toward his office that is the only room on this floor which is attached with a desk outside and a bunch of desks more with 3 feet space where few people are working
We walk past them and everyone stops to say good morning to Liam with over-enthusiastic smiles.

In his office, he is sitting in his chair and I sit in front of him separated with a huge desk between us

"you could have told me that I will work for you?".

"Is there a problem working for me?" he asks in a teasing voice

"No, not at all its a pleasure"

"I got promoted 2 months ago and was looking for an assistant anyway I read your application and I think you will be the perfect candidate for this job"

"Thank you so much"

"Your welcome"

"how long have you been working here?"

He just graduated a year ago so I think not so long.
"3 years back I joined as an intern in my junior year"

he got here on his own and that too at this young age. That's impressive

"so we should discuss your pay and you can join from tomorrow?"

When I get out of the office I immediately call my mum. "I got a job mum and I will be getting 5,000$ a month"

"Congrats baby but when and how did this happen I want to know everything but not on call. When are you visiting?"
She sounds happy and eager

"Soon" I hang up

I need a car and a few dresses so I run to Macy's.
From tomorrow I hope my life will be better
