Assistant (2)

"Zeus?" She was shocked stiff by the name she had just heard. "I don't understand. Why would you show up here and in such a manner?"

"For an interview." He shrugged. "Isn't that why we are all here? You posted an announcement online and stated that there was a vacancy. What's the point of all this?"

Lucy had promised to investigate him, but she was yet to hear a word from her, then this oddball came rolling in.

"Have we met before?" She asked, trying to keep herself sane. "And have we communicated before?"

"Yes. A few hours ago when I submitted my application." He answered.

So that was a no. She was troubled. "Then why did you claim my surname?" Did he know how terrifying that was? She had almost thought that he was her brother!
