As soon as I knocked on the door, I heard a commanding voice state "enter" I entered the room and looked around and saw him sitting looking at me with his authoritative eyes. He looks so fricking gorgeous it's not fair I thought, I so wanted to go and just look into his dreamy eyes. Yuck! stop it Falak what are you thinking girl, he is your boss! I berated myself.

He pointed for me to sit in the large black chair opposite himself, I slowly moved forward willing my feet to move, and say down opposite his glaring gaze.

"So Miss Sheikh as you know we are doing a major overhaul to the magazine and I would like to ask if I do give you a position in this magazine then which position do you think you deserve and why should I keep you on" Mr Armaan asked me.

I knew that he was going to ask me something like this before hand so had practiced what I wanted to say.

"Ummm well sir as you know I was working in the household section of the magazine and I know that is being removed so I would love it if you can dedicate a portion of the magazine to Muslim fashion and I would love to either head or be part of that team, I would love to show the world that fashion for Muslim ladies isn't just about boring head scarves and loose clothing and would love to portray the modern Muslim lady, we can do fashion, accessories, tips for customers and maybe a Q&A section, if permissable with you of course" without waiting for him to speak I carried on

" I have worked here a while and have made genuine amount of progress, I would love to continue working here, my skills match what you are looking for, I have the drive and passion needed for a fashion magazine, can I tell you a secret sir, I asked him afraid, he nodded for me to continue,

"I hated working in the household department, it was the most boring job ever and I guess I'm telling you this is because the idea I have put forward to you is a project I would surely take a keen interest, I would take active involvement in every article I put forward to you, this is much needed in this society where we are looked down upon for wearing a hijab and abaya( a full length, full sleeves, loose outer garment worn by some Muslim ladies), I believe this is needed and I can do the best job, with myself being a hijabi and all" I held my breath and waited for him to let me know what's in his mind

I stared at this girl in amazement and thought about the idea she had put forward so passionately, and to my surprise I actually loved the idea and without consulting any member of my team I informed her off such.

"Well Miss Sheikh I have to say I absolutely love this proposal you have told me and without speaking to any of my staff I will give you the go ahead for this project" as soon as I said this, I heard her squeal with happiness and I loved hearing her carefree laugh, "if you let me know who else is interested in this idea, we can make a team for this project and decide on a name and theme, and if we require more staff then we can advertise for them. I will speak to you more about this in further details as I have more people to see" I said dismissing her.

I was so happy that he agreed I felt like literally crying, I was so over the moon, and as soon as I excited the office and let out a sigh of relief.
