Chapter TWO

It's a beautiful day, the sun is shining , the sky so beautiful and yes it's my first day as the CEO of Smith Fashion , I'm super excited , I opened my giant closet and looked at the varieties of clothes I can choose from but I don't want to because I want something special for my big day , I left my room and entered my other room where I keep my very special dresses for big occasions , I opened the closet and there it was , the perfect dress for the perfect day , it's a grey suit dress designed by the popular Roro, I took the dress out and headed to my room to get ready , I took my bath and came out singing hello from the other by Adele screaming and going off key but I don't care I was too excited , I got dressed and sat down to do my make up , I applied a red lipgloss and a little bit of mascara and I think I'm good to go , I wore my fendi heels that I got last summer and I headed downstairs where I saw my driver waiting for me smiling from ear to ear , good morning ma'am and congratulations Suzzy said handing a flower bouquet to me , thanks Suzzy I said hugging her , she opened the door to the car for me and I got inside , it was a short drive from my penthouse to the office so we got there in five minutes, Suzzy stopped in front of the office and noticed I was nervous and turned to me with the cutest smile saying you can do this , I heaved a sigh of relieve and came down from the car , good morning ma'am , the secretary greeted me from the door entrance , good morning Trisha I replied her walking into the company and heading to my office which used to be my dad's , I could see how excited my employees are as they smiled at me as I walk to my new office , I opened the door to my office and walked in , they did a little retouch to the decoration of the office , they painted it purple , it was formally grey , my dad probably told them to as my favorite color is purple , I walked slowly to the chair reminiscing the time I used to come in here to talk to my dad while he's seated on this chair , busy working , I sat down on the chair and saw my name written boldly on a name plate SOPHIA SMITH , CEO , I am so proud of my self I'll be turning 30 soon and here I am. I got to work immediately and I must say it's a lot of work to do , I called the secretary and asked her when the interview for my personal assistant will be taking place as I urgently need one , I need to get my schedule planned out and meet with the board of directors , I heard a knock on my door and Trisha came in , ma'am the interview is scheduled for tomorrow by 9am , okay Trisha thank you I said dismissing her , I got back to work , I went through some of the proposals from the marketing team and I must say they are doing a good job , I gave a feedback to the proposals and it took a lot of time , I checked the time and it was past seven , just then, my phone started ringing , it's a call from my friends congratulating me , we are currently at the Finn bar so get here right now let's have fun , Mia screamed , I smiled saying okay girls I'll be there in a minute , I hanged up , took some files and headed to the bar , I got to the bar in no time and entered looking for my friends , they waved at me and I walked towards their direction , hi girls I said smiling giving them a hug, the all screamed at once , congratulations on becoming the ceo , how was your first day at work , I smiled saying it was fine but stressful , sorry hun , Tee said , I love my girls , we've been together since high school and we've been inseparable ever since then , Tee is a lawyer and Mia is a Dentist , the bartender served us seven shots each and we've dared each other to take it , I refused saying girls I have to work tomorrow resisting , I know Mia said , but you hardly hang out with us and this is one opportunity we don't want to miss to have fun with you so let's do this , Tee said convincing me , I took the shots and thankfully I can handle my alcohol a little bit , I became tipsy after taking the seventh shot and I refused to have more , but my girls continued , they can handle their alcohol well , I looked round the bar and saw drunk people everywhere , I saw a couple making out in a corner but I could see them well, the guy is hot, he's well built and has a brown hair , the lady is a pretty lady , she's smiling and leaning to him for a Kiss and he's teasing her by moving back , he grabbed her by the neck, pulled her closer and the started kissing , it's an intimate one , the guy proceeds to rubbing his hand on her boobs and she assists him in doing it harder , all of this made me remember Williams and it made me realize I need someone no matter how hard I deny it , yes Williams did me dirty but I should move on , I'm almost 30 and haven't even had my first organsm , I kept staring at the couple making out imagining I was the one the guy was making out with until Tee's voice startled me when she shouted go get a room , Mia turned to me and said Sophie you really need to get laid , look at you starting at those couple , it's too obvious you want some of that, common Mia I said smiling , I don't need that , you do girl Tee also said , deep down I know I do but I'll just get a toy I said to my self , we left the bar and the girls crashed at my place . The next morning I woke up feeling slight headache , I want to sleep more but I can't I have to go to work , I stood up reluctantly and went straight into the bathroom to get my bath , got dressed and did my make up trying to cover my swollen eyes , I said bye to my friends who just woke up and went downstairs and made myself coffee quickly , I had my coffee with bacon and egg that my cook made me and stood up ready to go to work .

 Good morning Suzzy I said entering the car , we got to the office and I got down and walked straight to my office , I have a lot of work to do today, good morning ma'am Trisha greeted and I replied her with a smile , how are you Trisha , I entered my office and continued yesterday's work , I started by signing some important contracts paperwork and by the time I was done with that Trisha came in and told me it's time for the interview , okay Trisha , you know how we do it , let them come in one after the other I told her , she left and the next minute I heard a knock on my door , come in I said and it was a pretty lady who looks timid , good morning maam , good morning , how are you doing today I said with a smile , I , I'm fine she said looking unsure and shy, that's a minus one , I need someone bold and outspoken , okay pls can I have your resume I said to her , her name is Vicky as seen on her resume , okay nice one Vicky , we'll get in touch with you if you're fit for the job , thank you ma'am she said and stood up to left , she's a beautiful lady but she's not fit for the job, I need someone bold , outspoken and intelligent , the next person came in and it seems like she came to showcase her new Gucci bag , she kept talking about how good of a stylist she is and how she has styled popular celebrities like Kim k , I mean good for you girl but I don't need a stylist I need a personal assistant I said to myself , I smiled and watch her go on and on talking about how she'll style me to perfection , okay thank you for applying , we'll get back to you if you're fit for the job, I said to her and she left, I am so tired interviewing all these people and most of them were only interested in being my stylist, or they just not good enough , at this point I was about to cancel the rest of the interview , when I heard a knock and it was a man's voice this time , good morning ma'am , my name is Damon and I'm here for the interview to be your personal assistant , I looked up and oh lord he was hot as hell , he is wearing a white shirt and navy blue pant , I could see his biceps from the shirt , he's well built and has a blue eyes , I was lost in thought staring at him and his voice brought me back to reality , ma'am can you hear me he said , yeah yeah I'm sorry, pls sit i said , I completely forgot about my policy of not interviewing and hiring men when I saw him , he looks younger though, I checked his resume and saw he's 25 , oh wow a gen z , he talked boldly and is intelligent , he's the first to give me what I wanted , someone bold and intelligent , okay damon , we'll get back to you , thank you he said staring into my eyes , he stood up to leave and my eyes were stuck on his biceps , he's so hot , goodbye ma'am he said bringing me back to reality , yeah I replied , trying to comport myself . I called Trisha and told her to cancel the interview , but ma'am there is still one more person left, Trisha said , okay let her in and yes I shouldn't have let her in because she only came to the interview to tell me she's a make up artist , I mean the interview is for a personal assistant and not a make up artist , I controlled my self from yelling and kindly told her when I need one I'll let her know she dropped her business card and left . Oh what a day it has been , I have to choose between Vicky and Damon , Vicky is the only lady that actually wants to be my pA the rest came for something else but if I'm been fair Damon is the right person to hire but my policy of not hiring men , is he worth it , should I break my policy for him , Vicky on the other hand is a shy type and I don't think it's right to choose her over Damon because of my policy , I'll just be fair then, I called Trisha and told her to send an email to Damon telling him he got the job, what ma'am , Trisha said shocked because for a very long time I haven't hired a man so she was surprised, should I repeat myself miss Horbbes I said to Trisha in a strict tone , no ma'am she said , I'll do that immediately, she left my office and I looked at the view from my office staring at the sky and wondering how I will deal with such a hot personal assistant , well , I'll just be professional.
