Just Another Day

Chapter 1 – The Interview

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! WHAM!

"Damn clock! It's too early" Kagome said as she slams her clock to shut it up. It was 7 a.m.

It's Friday, and it's the day that she goes for her interview for big buisness man as his assistant. She was both nervous and excited about her interview. So she got up and headed to her closet. She took out what she wanted to wear. A red long-sleeved blouse with red shiny buttons running down the middle. A white pair of slacks. A pair of white socks and her red dress shoes. She then went into her bathroom and took a shower to get ready. After showering, brushing her teeth. Combing and brushing her hair and dressing up, she was ready for the day ahead. She went down the hall to her kitchen of her home and fix her a quick breakfast which is pancakes, cereal was too light for her.

"Well, I better get going. I gotta be there at 9, sharp". And with that she put her plate in the sink, got her keys, went out the door and locked it and went into her car and drove to her destination.

She was humming to her tune on the radio. She stopped at a red light and waited for the light to turn. Then she saw one of her friends crossing the street in front of her and she waved at her as the girl waved back. Soon the light was green and she drove to the tall office building which awaits her interview. Getting out the car Kagome went into the building and got on the elevator and she pushed the number 30 which is where the office is located. Once there she walked out and went toward a front desk where a clerk was looking at her with a smile. The blonde hair blue-eyed girl watch every move.

"Excuse me, I'm here for an interview today".

"What's your name?"

"Kagome Higurashi".

"Ka-go-me...ah yes, here you are. You're lucky. It's not everyday someone gets interviewed by the boss himself".

"Oh really".

"Yes. Have a seat and I'll call him to let him know that you're here".

"Thank you".

"You're welcome".

Kagome turned and went to sit on one of two of the comfy looking seats across from the long desk. She hummed and watch her surroundings until he came. She listen to the clerk as she dialed a few numbers and waits for someone on the othe line to answer.

"Hello, yes I have a Miss Higurashi here for an interview. Yes, okay...so you'll take her...okay I'll tell her, thank you (click)...Miss Higurashi?"

"Yes?"

"His executive is on his way to escort you to the boss's office".

"Oh, okay thank you very much". She sits up and prepare herself for her escort.

Five minutes later, Kagome spotted a fairly handsome man with a navy blue pin-striped suit with a white shirt coming her way. He had a short ponytail in the back of his head. He walked towards her and stopped and did a slight bow to her.

"Hello ma'am. Miss Higurashi I presume?" he said.

"Yes, I'm she. How are you?"

"I'm fine. My name is Miroku Houshi. I am the boss's executive".

"Wow. Nice to meet you".

"Like wise. I'm suppos to exscort you to the small confrence room. If you would follow me".

"Oh, okay". And with that, Kagome stood up and followed the man through double doors and down the hall.

Soon, they stopped to a door and it says 'confrence room' on the front. Miroku opened the door and took a step back to let Kagome in first. Once inside, Miroku led Kagome to one of the 6 seats that was on the table. He gestured her to take a seat and she gladly complied.

"If you just wait here Miss Higurashi, I'll get Mr. Tashio for your interview".

"Thank you Mr. Houshi". He bowed slightly and went out the door.

"I wonder if the boss is as cute as he is" Kagome thought out loud.

She didn't have to wait to long to find out. The door opened to get her out of her thoughts and there stood in the doorway was a man that could make Kagome take back what she had said. For the man wasn't cute, he was drop dead damn gorgeous! He was a tall hansome man with long silver-white hair. He wore a black double-breasted suit to die for. His face was so gorgeous as his skin was nearly flawless. He could pass for a model easily. His eyes were golden and deep, almost hypnotizing. Kagome saw that the man was muscular as she saw some of his biceps in his sleeves. He walked in a closes the door. In his right hand he had a vanilla folder possibly her information. He walked over and sat down at the head of the table regally. Kagome was mezmerized by his movements so elegant and graceful. She was brought out of her thoughts when he started to speak.

"Good morning, Miss Higurashi". He held out her hand to offer a shake.

"Oh...I'm sorry. Hello". She took his hand and shook it.

"I see you made good timing for your interview".

"I don't like being late for anything".

"Good. Now, let's see". He opened the folder and scan through her application, resume and any other information he has on her. "I see that your resume is pretty impresive. It's a pity that your former bosses didn't want to keep you".

"They called back to bring me back but I refused knowing that it might happen again".

"I see". He scanned again through the papers. "Your computer skills are excellent. The things you have on your resume makes you an excellent canindate for the job". He looked up at her to continue, "I see that you like office and clerical work. So tell me...what makes you want to work for me?"

"Well...I'm a good worker. I work well with people. I achieve goals that need to be met. I don't mind following orders. I get things done no matter what time it is. Basically I just do me".

"I see". He nodded.

"May I ask you a question?"

"Yes".

"What's the name of the company. The ad didn't say the name".

"You will have to excuse my last assistant for that error. The company's name is Tashio Enterprise".

Kagome was shocked. She heard of that name before. The company owned nearly half of Tokyo. "Did you say...Tashio Enterprise?"

"Yes. Even though I do not like repeating myself".

"Wow. I heard a lot about you. You owned nearly half of Toyko and along with a few affiliate buisness. I always want to know what the company is like as I can see from a small bit that it is quite special. I never thought that I would sit next to the boss himself".

"I see you read about my company...nice. By the way...my name is Sesshoumaru Tashio".

"Beautiful name".

He smirked, "Thank you. Now Miss Higurashi, I am in need of an assistant. Tell you what I'll do, I'll let you have the job if only youcan do the tasks that I give you to be professional".

'Indeed, her resume is quite inpressive. She would make a great assistant with the chance she's given' he thought to himself.

"I didn't write all that down in my resume just to show off. I'll be as professional as I can be, Mr. Tashio".

"Good". He closes the folder and brought up to his arm and stood with his hand out to offer a shake. "Congradulations and welcome to Tashio Enterprise".

Kagome smiled as she stood and took his hand and shook it, "Thank you very much. I won't let you down".

"Very well then. I will see you Monday morning at 8, sharp".

"8 it is sir". And with that Kagome walked out of the confrence room, through the doors, waving bye to the clerk and into the elevators.

'Oh my god, when I touched his hands, his skin is so soft' she thought as she touched the hand she shook her new boss with. "I got the job, yes!" excitedly said as she wait to get off of her floor.

Once the doors opened she walked out of the building to her awaiting car in the parking lot across the street. She got into her car, start it and drove off. By this time it is 11 o'clock. On her way home she stopped by a restaurant to have lunch. She walked in and let the hostess escort her to her seat. She ordered her lunch when her cellphone ring. She looked in her purse and took out her phone and answered it.

"Hello".

"Hey, Kagome!"

"Hey Sango. How are ya?"

"I'm fine. I'm just calling to see if you got that job you hoped for?"
"Yes, I did. And what's better I had the interview with the boss himself".

"What? That's good! Even better".

"Yeah, it is. But when I seen him I almost fell off my chair".

"Why? Was he ugly?"

"No, the complete opposite. He was drop dead gorgeous!"

"So what's his name?"

"Sesshoumaru Tashio".

"What?! Not the Sesshoumaru Tashio...of Tashio Enterprise!"

"The one...you know him?" surprised by her friend's reaction.
"Know him? Hell everybody knows him. My god Kagome you're the luckiest girl in the world to work right under him".

"I guess" she giggled.

"All you gotta do now is meet his crazy ass brother".

"He has a brother?"

"Oh yeah, he looks like him but his eyes are wider and he has white hair and white ears on the top of his head and he's got a filthy mouth".

"Oh, I think I seen him once before. Didn't know that was his brother".

"Yeah...his name is Inuyasha. He's the CEO. My boyfriend is the executive".

Kagome was surprise when she heard this, "Is his name Miroku?"

"Yeah...how did you know?"
"He's the one that led me to the confrence room for my interview".

"Ooh.. Ain't he cute?!"

"Yes, Sango. Nice catch" she giggled.

"Thanks, he's a bit of a perv though, but I'm working on cleaning him out".

"I see". She looked up and see her waiter coming, "Hey Sango I'm about to eat lunch I'll call you back later ok".

"Oh ok Kagome, and congrads".

"Thanks, bye".

"Bye (click)". And with that said Kagome hung up her phone, put it in her purse and wait for her food to be set down in front of her. She thanked the waiter and when she blessed her food, she dug in.

As she was half way through her food she called for the waiter to bring her check. She was surprised that the waiter said her food was paid for.

"Really. Who paid for it?"

"I offered to" said a voice coming from in front of her. She looked up to see her new boss taking a seat across from her.

"Mr. Tashio?"

"Hello Miss Higurashi".

"Mr. Tashio, do you want your usual lunch?" the waiter said patiently standing by.

"Yes, thank you". The waiter bow slightly and went off to get his lunch.

"Um. Let me guess. This is your restaurant?"

"Yes".

"Oh".

"This is my favorite restaurant. After my success I bought it because most of my favorite dishes are here. When I came in I saw you. I saw the waiter printing up your tab so I told him that I would pay for it".

"Oh, thank you. Even though I could pay for it myself".

"I know, but I offered". And with that continued the rest of their lunch in silent.

After Kagome finished she excused herself saying that she will see her boss Monday and walked out the door. With a stomach full of food she went to her car and drove home. When she got home, she unlocked her door and went inside and locked it shut. She went straight to her bedroom and got out of her clothes. She then took out a nightgown from her dresser drawer and put it on even though it's still day light out. She then went to her bed and plopped down on it and layed down. She turn on her t.v to catch the news. When she did she was surprised to see her new boss.

This just in! Mr. Sesshoumaru Tashio will soon open a grand spa in downtown Tokyo. It will benefit the working women who work downtown and don't feel like driving long ways to one. It will also draw profit which some of the proceeds will go to charity.

"I see. That would help a lot of women, especially me" she giggled. She turned to a movie and she settled down in her bed. Soon after the movie was off her phone ranged. She sat up and grabbed her phone from her nightstand

"Hello".

"Hey hon!"

"Hey mom! How's Paris, France?"

"It's beautiful hon. I'm just checking to see how you are doing?"
"I'm doing great. I got that job I wanted".

"Great! Iti'll really help you out. Souta says hi too".

"Tell him I said hi as well".

"Okay. Say listen I'm going to go now so I'll talk to you later okay?"
"Okay mom, I love you".

"I love you too...and Souta as well... bye"

"Bye mom (click)...I'm glad they are having fun" Kagome said as she layed back down on her bed.
