The woman sighed as she looked around her messy muggle apartment. It would take her hours to clean it without magic and she still had that job interview in a half-hour. Right now she was working as a waitress in a restaurant down the street but she made barely enough to pay the rent. Her roommate had just recently moved out and since then she had been having major money problems. Sure she could just go to her parents for help. They didn't have much money but would always find a way to help her out. But then they'd think she couldn't make it on her own. Despite her age, 20, they still thought of her as a child.
She walked over to her couch and fell down upon it to think. She needed her wand to clean up but it was lost in the mess.
Now more than ever she wished she hadn't turned Harry down. He was only 21 and already had a place of his own. A nice mansion she had heard down in "Malfoy-ville". Malfoy-ville was an area of London which was mainly owned by the Malfoys. It wasn't really called that but the name fit.
Her cinnamon eyes filled with tears as she thought about her past. Back when she only had to worry about having her homework done. Now she had to worry about paying the rent, buying food, clothes, and various other things she needed.
"No use sitting here all day you'll miss your job interview." She muttered to herself.
She carefully looked around the stacks of books and papers and spotted a thin bit of wood sticking out of a basket she was using as a substitute for a dresser drawer.
"Ah! There you are!" She jumped up and pulled it out of the clothes basket.
"Repairo clean." She muttered and suddenly the house cleaned it's self up.
She then headed into her tiny bathroom to fix her hair. It was as usual laying flat on her shoulders. She had recently dyed it auburn instead of the violent shade of red it had been. She applied a bit of make-up to her pale face and then went to her room to find the perfect outfit.
About ten minutes later she walked out of her room wearing a lovely baby blue dress and a pair of high heels.
"Now to find my purse."
It only took her five minutes to find her purse. That left her almost fifteen minutes of free time so she grabbed a book she had been reading off her small dining room table and opened it to some place in the middle. She only set it down when she heard a little beep from inside her purse.
She took a deep breath. "Well here I go again. I just hope I get this job."
The woman apparated away with hopes of getting the job that would change her life forever.
