I was 20 minutes early until my shift starts. Perfect!
It was my first day at BBC and Lord knows just how excited I was to work in a radio station! It was dope. I really thought I couldn't do it since I'm going to have to balance school and work but my housemate had convinced me to so, here goes nothing. I was waiting for my boss to pick me up at the front door of the radio station office until 2 men came out of the elevators. Wow, they're gorgeous and oh crap, I think they noticed! Abort mission to stare, abort mission to stare!
"Maya, was it?" a grey-haired, tall man approached me when I was pretending to search for something in my bag to avoid the awkwardness. "Yes, that's me." I gave him a smile. He offered me a handshake, smiled and said, "My name's James and I'm your boss. To be frank, I'm quite pleased to have an employee from… Malaysia, you said?" Pleased? Oh wow. Lol. "Yes, I am. I'm really excited to be here as well. I've always wanted to work at a radio station." "Well then, let me give you a quick tour."
He showed me around and introduced me to my colleagues. "And that brown-haired lad is Dan and the one beside him is Phil." I nodded. He gave me a strange look and said, "Don't you know who they are?" Other than being 2 gorgeous motherfuckers? Nope, I've no clue. "My… colleagues?" He gave me that 'look' again. "Radio presenters?" He took a moment to collect him self until he told me that they were Internet personalities and how they have girls screaming for them. I strongly believe that James found me rather odd for not knowing that but we just laughed it off. After their short recording for some show, James introduced me to them.
"That's so cool, I've always wanted to go there. I heard the beaches are nice there." Phil said to me, frowning like a 6-year old. Those blue eyes, he has. Dan was quite shy, he didn't say much and was a bit awkward. I love these two already! As soon as the tour was complete, James said that I could go home and start tomorrow.
Week 1:
I love this job. It's stress-free. My timetable doesn't clash with my work period and everything is going super well. I caught Dan staring at me oh wait, no. It was the other way around. Seriously though, what is my pathetic life?
Week 2:
It was Jenna's birthday on Friday. Everyone's so nice and funny. I feel so welcomed. I love them already!
It's been a couple of hours since I've been taking calls from the front desk. Busy, busy, day today. I'm famished but I'm holding on since not much hours left until I could go home! I was organizing the desk until… "Hi," and there Dan was in front of me just out of the blue. "Oh hello, Dan. What can I do for you? Do you need any help or something?" I asked, trying to give him the sweetest smile I could praying I don't look like a total goose. "Um, this is probably a bad idea but…" he paused and looked at Phil a few times until he continued "but I don't know if you'd agree." Is he asking me out? Or is he only going to ask me to wear a llama onesie to feature in his video? "What is it?" I asked and I swear I could literally feel blood rushing to my brain.
"Do you want to go get some dinner? You look like you haven't had solid food," Aw that smile. Those dimples. Is he nervous? He looks so adorable. "Maya? Um, you want to?" he laughed. "Oh my God, I'm sorry but are you for real?" I couldn't believe it, I honestly couldn't. "I am, or are you not available? Damn it, Jenna said you were. I'm so sorry." "Oh no, no. Not at all. I am available, Dan. I just didn't expect this," I smiled. "Where to for dinner?" "Let me just get my coat."
