The Intern

Emma woke up to the persistent pinging sound coming from her phone that signifies she has an incoming email. She tried ignoring the sound by burying her head deep under her pillow.

'Better...' She thought to herself and heaved a sigh of relief. She was about to drift off to sleep when her small alarm clock started with its high and sharp shrilling noise that penetrated through the pillow even.

'Oh bloody hell!... It's six am already!?' She wondered in annoyance. However late she slept the previous night, she knew if she wants to have any hope of beating the Lagos traffic, she ought to get up and starts preparing to go for her interview at the Salvadorian Empire

'Five more minutes.' She said to herself sleepily. 'I will get up after five minutes.' Stretching her hand to feel around on the nightstand where the alarm clock always sits. She hit a button that immediately snoozes the alarm.
