You Are The One

"Nobody said the job was easy." She says apologetically.'I didn't expect that after the interview either.' I think cynically, but I bite my tongue."I'll read that carefully over the weekend." If I say instead, put the pieces of paper in the box with the others.My baby, as I will now lovingly call my iPhone, vibrates on the table and I look at Olivia in astonishment.'Does he actually have an exclusive contract with Apple? Hmm, I think I have to ask ... 'it flashes through my head.I take it timidly in my hand.The email symbol flashes and I press open. by: Damian Lawson, Managing Director and Owner Lawson Industries Inc., Dublinto: Everly Thornton, Personal Assistant to the Managing Director, DublinSubject: Stylist Miss Thornton, I made an appointment with Aaron Filan at Keville Hair. You will be there on Saturday at 11 a.m.Damian Lawson I stare at the

'If I put it up now, I will look like a librarian.' I make a slightly disgusted face.'God Everly Thornton, what happened to you?' I echo myself and put on a little makeup.A lot depends on the interview today.A hell of a lot ...Actually everything.My sky-blue eyes look at me tired and tired, but I just can't help it.The last few weeks, basically the whole of the last year, are just way too deep for me.I try to save what can still be saved with make-up and after 20 minutes I find myself acceptable.'It doesn't get any better ...' I decide and go back into the hallway."You look good Eve." Jen comes out of her room and gives me an encouraging smile."Thanks Jen." I hug her briefly."Good luck." She says quietly and I know in her own way she really wishes me luck.But unlike me, she wants me not to get the job.She just doesn't know what depends on it for me.I take a look outside, t

Thank you." I reply in an exaggeratedly friendly manner, which earns me another disapproving look. Finally, I take his place on the chair across from him and cross my legs, I hope skillfully, over each other."One moment please." He nods briefly to me and turns to his laptop.I look at him again, the shock is too deep in my bones that the man in front of me is still so young. Although he looks older than he probably is in his dark gray, presumably tailored, suit and black tie.I tilt my head slightly. He has dark brown, almost black hair that sticks out a little wildly in all directions, he has dark brown eyes and a striking face. I stare at his full, sensual lips for a moment too long.'Pull yourself together!' my inner voice commands me now and I quickly look away.I look at his hands flying over the keyboard of his computer. Not even better to get my nervousness under control.'Everly Thornton, look out the window my goodness ...' my inne

I've been working for Mr. Lawson for six years ..." she also gives me a hesitant smile "... I don't know what you did ... but no one has ever got a job here so quickly, especially not his assistant. We have been looking for a suitable replacement for Emilia for almost nine months. ”She sighs slightly."Why did Emilia leave?" I ask quietly and don't know if I really want to hear that.“Emilia's family situation has changed. She got married and you can only do one thing in this job. Have a private life or work for Mr. Lawson. ”She cocks her head slightly. "I hope you know what you got yourself into." She says, slightly warning.'No I do not know that!' my inner voice is screaming at me."Not really." I reply carefully and Olivia looks at me in astonishment."You will notice that very quickly ..." it comes from her ambiguously and I swallow hard."All right, I should hand you the basic equipment ..." she takes the box from the

I breathe in and out deeply.“That would be it for today.” Olivia says suddenly and brings me out of my paralysis."Thank you." I extend my hand to her and take the box.“If you give me the signed papers on Monday, you will get your code card for the building. You will have unrestricted access to all areas. ”She points to my visitor badge.I nod, I feel overwhelmed by all the information and just want to go home.After all, I still have 3 whole days before I surrender to my fate.I walk to the elevator on shaky legs and am relieved when the doors close behind me.I could cry with anger ...'Who does he think he is? Oh Eve, expect a tough few months. ' my inner voice sighs and I have to agree with her.It's going to be a tough time ...As I walk through the entrance area and hand in my visitor badge, I realize that I have just sold my soul to the devil.And the devil has a name.
