Harry's POV

To be honest I knew a girl like Cassie wouldn't get a job with her clumsiness so I thought I'd give her a shot for this one. Its 7:51am and I can already tell she's going to be late for her first day.
I could fire her for being late or I could go along with my goody goody side and let her settle in.

I sat in my desk twiddling my thumbs and tapping my foot in the mid air. My thoughts are interrupted by someone bursting into the door, my guess, Cassie.
I looked up and raised my eyebrow, she stopped in her place and leaned her body forward and spun her body around and closed the doors. She knocked and waited for my permission to come in.
She knocked again.
And again.
"Come on in" I laughed to myself quietly.
She opened the doors embarrassed.
"I am so sorry about th-"

"You're late."
"On your first day.."

"I'm sorry about that too."

"Stop saying you're sorry."

"Sorry." She face palmed herself weakly and shook her head.
"Sit Cassie." She did what she was told and patted her skirt keeping her eyes to the floor. I stood up and walked around my desk to stand behind her chair. I spun it around slowly and crouched down.
"Now now Cassie, I gave you a second chance for the interview, then you cursed at the interview, then raised your voice at me over the phone and now you are 3 minutes late. I did say sharp darling." I put my pointer finger under her chin and raised her head to make her eyes contact with mine. She bit her lower lips and looked everywhere but me.
"Have anything to say?"

"sorry, I won't do it again." She swallowed deeply.
"There it is again Cassie, stop saying sorry!" I picked myself up and walked myself over to my chair once again.
"now, let the day begin." I smirked.
