The sun rose spreading its rays over the city. Shirayuki opened the curtains of her window to look outside. It was beautiful. The city has woken up and everybody was getting back to their usual routine.
Shirayuki has to practically shake her roommate to wake her up. Alarm clock was useless, Torou was a heavy sleeper. "Get up Torou. I swear I will dump a bucket of water on you if you did not get up now." Shirayuki screamed while getting ready. "I am up." Torou got up rubbing her eyes. "What are you getting ready for? Cafe so early?" "No, didn't I tell you yesterday, I had an interview today. For the job at Wistaria's Corps." Torou thought for a second. "Yeah I almost forgot. All the best sweetheart. And by the way I heard that the CEO is pretty hot." Shirayuki rolled her eyes "Like I care. By the way what are your plans for today."Shirayuki asked adjusting her final look. "I have a meeting today, with the new brand manager. They are going to look at my new designs today. And you are look beautiful." Shirayuki was wearing a dark blue full sleeved shirt and white pencil jeans. She wasn't a huge makeup fan and kept it neutral. She tried her hair in a high ponytail. "Glad to hear that, my fashion expert. I really needed some compliments to boost up my confidence. And all the best for deal." "Thanks" Torou said hugging Shirayuki. Both exchanged goodbyes and Shirayuki left the apartment.
She checked her watch, it was 8:45am. The interview was at 9:30. She took a taxi and told the driver where she wanted to go. She really needed this job. She worked in a cafe and needed a better job. Her manager was terrible. His intentions were not right. He once told her to stay for longer hours to clean the cafe when there was no customer, but she told him that it was urgent and somehow managed to sneek out. But she cannot do it anymore, she seriously needed to get a respectable job.
Shirayuki reached Wistaria Corps. She looked around. The building was huge. She checked the watch. It was 9:25am. She quickly paid the driver and went inside the building. On the counter she was greeted by a young women in her mid twenties. She was really pretty and her outfit fitted her perfectly. "Good morning mam. How could I help you?" she asked. "Hi, I am Shirayuki Akagami. I am here for the interview for the secretary vacancy." "Oh yes, sir would be waiting to see you. Follow me." The girl started towards the boss's office and Shirayuki followed.
The office was huge. Everyone was busy working. No wonder Wistaria Corps. is one of the biggest companies. The young girl got into a lift. So did Shirayuki. She pressed the button reading 34th and the lift started going up. " I am Lisa." The girl said smiling and reached out to shake her hand. Shirayuki returned the smile and shook her hand "It's nice to meet you Lisa". The lift reached 34th floor and both of them got out. Lisa walked clicking her heels on the glistening floor and Shirayuki followed slilently. Lisa knocked on a door. There came a reply 'come in' from inside. Lisa entered the room. Shirayuki heard her telling someone about her and the person in return told Lisa to bring the girl in. Shirayuki felt something in his voice that made her heart thump loudly. She swallowed and tried to calm herself down.
Lisa appeared from the office and told Shirayuki to go in. Shirayuki went in and heard Lisa wispering 'All the best' when they crossed each other. But she didn't get a chance to reply since the door was closed. She started moving inside the cabin. The cabin was big and fully air conditioned. There was a mild fragrance of some sort of cologne. When she lifted her head, she saw a man sitting in the chair with his hands on the table. He was wearing a tailored black suit which fitted his body perfectly. Even though he was dressed, Shirayuki could tell that he was her age and quite fit, something accompanied after a lot of training at the gym. His hair were white as snow, perfectly groomed which contrasted the sapphire blue eyes, like eternal sea. This guy was really handsome.
Shirayuki was snapped from his thoughts when he started speaking. "And you are...?" Shirayuki blushed when she noticed that she was continuously staring at him and nodded quitely. She cleared her throat before saying," Good morning sir. I am Shirayuki Akagami." Zen nodded. "Miss Akagami, I have gone through your records. They are pretty good. But before I hire you I need to test some things that I need to have in a secretary." Shirayuki nodded. "And for that I am going to watch your work for a week. You would be working as a trainee. And then I'll decide if you are capable enough or not. Is that fine with you." "Yes sir." "Good then. Lisa will tell you about your job. You can start from tomorrow 9am sharp." There was a stern look on his face throughout and he spoke in a very 'business friendly' tone. "Sure sir." Zen called Lisa in his cabin and told her all the instructions. "Thankyou. Have a good day." Shirayuki said. He didn't even nod. He got engrossed in his work again.
Lisa showed Shirayuki, her cabin and told her where all her things were kept and what were the things she needed to do, like, to make notes during Zen's meetings, to tell him about his everyday schedule and remind him before his every meetings, writing emails etc. Shirayuki took a note of everything and thanked Lisa. "Your welcome. I hope you get this job." "Thanks Lisa." "Ok then see you tomorrow." "Sure".
