Job Hunting

It's been a week since that awful incident now. Melanie tried to apologize to me for the stunt she pulled on me. I did not accept it fully. But given she is my Best Friend and I have to face her everyday, I couldn't help but not stay angry at her for more than two days. I told her strictly to stay out of my business and she agreed. I don't need her help anymore. I am good on my own.

Anyways, I was applying for jobs wherever possible. It was strange I did not receive any calls from The Knight Inc. All thanks to Mr. Grumpy there. But surprisingly, Aiden didn't file any complaints against me regarding Amy. God I miss that cute little face!! I wish I could see her once more. I wanted to spend some more time with Amy. I hoped that she remembers me.

Psshhh !! How can I be so stupid? She was just someone who needed my help. Nothing more. Still deep down I wanted to hold her small frame close to my heart and comfort her. Sighing I came out of my daydream when I noticed my phone was screaming to get my attention. I just checked the Caller ID and saw that Knight Inc. was flashing over it!!

I almost felt like the ground below my feet was vanishing. Was I really not dreaming? I pinched my cheek and yelped in pain. Damn. It's true! They did call me! What should I do? I was in desperate need for a job. I thought about receiving the call and just keeping it professional. "Hello." "Hello. May I speak to Ms. Gloria Blossom Please?" The voice sounded like a lady in her mid forties. "Yes, Speaking." I was getting nervous by now. "I wanted to inform you Miss that you are hired for the position of Interior Designer for the upcoming project of The Knight Inc. May I know when you will be joining?"

Yesss!! I did a small happy dance and replied, "Is Monday okay with you Ma'am?" The Lady on the other side chuckled a little. "Very well then. Monday it is. Call me Haley dear. Congratulations to you." "Thanks Ma'am. I mean..., Thanks Haley. Looking forward to working with you." "I would love to see you here too dear. The details will be mailed to you in a short while. Don't be late. Mr. Knight Doesn't like tardy people." "Yes, sure. I will be there on time. See you on Monday." With that I hung up.

Yeaaa!! Finally I made it!! I just thought that he would never think about me, given our history. I rolled my eyes. But miracles do happen right?. I immediately called Melanie to tell her this news. I yelled into my phone, "Mel!! I finally reserved myself a seat at The Knight's." She was beyond happy to hear that!! "Whoa babe!! Congratulations!!! We have to and I MEAN have to Celebrate this!!"

Couldn't argue with her on that. I deserved a break from constantly stressing myself out because of all this Job Hunting. I agreed with her and I didn't mind going to the club. Sometimes we do have to let loose and enjoy Life. And also I wanted to take my mind off some things. We agreed to hit the club as it was Friday night. Mel was gonna help me with my makeup after she came home.

Till that time I decided to take a bath. I used my Honey and Lavender shampoo to wash my wild red curls. It did smell good and smoothened my hair. After shampooing I conditioned my hair and took a long relaxing shower. I picked up an outfit to wear. It was a cream colored, tight fitting V neck dress. It just rested on my thighs. It was a sleeveless dress. I instantly liked it. I paired it with Rose Red colored pumps. I dried my hair with a blow dryer and waited for Mel to return home.

She came home within an hour or so later and we started to get ready. Mel helped me with my makeup. She did a bold winged eyeliner and put on some mascara over my lashes. I applied a Rose Red colored lipstick on my lips. Melanie was looking flawless in her midnight blue fitting dress and dark blue stilettos. She was a born beauty with tanned skin, hazel eyes, straight dark brown hair and killer body of a model.

She was a little taller than me, maybe 5'5". I on the other hand had a skinny body with an average height of 5'3". She painted my face with a bit of foundation, sprayed some hairspray on my hair. Then we finally left to get screwed at night.
