Alyssa's P.O.V

" Alyssa come on you need to get a job." My best friend Liza says sitting on the edge of my bed

" I know I just don't feel like it." I say

It had been two weeks since I had been laid off at my last job at Barnes and Noble.

" Come on I found a job for you. " Liza says

" What kind of job?" I ask

" it's a job for a personal assistant." Liza says

"Who's hiring?" I ask

"They wouldn't tell me. But please say you'll accept it." Liza says

A job for a personal assistant but they won't say who. I found that really strange. You'd think they'd want you to know who is employing you.

"I don't know Liza. It seems really suspicious." I say consciously

"Please I hate leaving you here all day. You need to get out." Liza says

"Fine I'll accept it." I say already getting annoyed

"Good because I've set up a video interview for you in two hours." Liza says with a smile

" Two hours!" I yell

I jump out of bed and dash out of my room. I quickly get into the shower. Soon enough I am done. I just put on a t shirt , black leggings , and black boots and I leave my long golden hair down.

When I felt I looked at least professional I raced downstairs into the living room where I had left my laptop the previous night. Once it was opened and turned on there was already a Skype call coming through.

Still unsure I clicked on it. Opposite of me was a man in a black suit. I felt underdressed and pathetic.

" Are you Alyssa Warren?" He asks

" Yes. That is me." I say

" Why do you think you should be given this job?" He asks

" Well I work very hard and I'm not afraid of a challenge." I say

" That's good because the man who put up the advertisement can be a challenge at times. " he says

" Oh." I say

"Have you ever been a personal assistant before?" He asks

"No but I'm a fast learner." I say

" I see. It says here your last job was at a Barnes and Noble is that correct ?"He asks

"Yes that is correct." I say

"Why did you leave?" He asks

"I didn't leave I was laid off." I say

" Well you're the best candidate I've met all day. You're hired." He says

" Thank you so much a..." I begin

" Oscar." Oscar says

" Thank you Oscar." I say

Then the Skype ends. I got the job. I actually got the job!

" So you got the job." Liza asks

" Of course you would be listening." I say

" What? I like to make sure you are doing ok." Liza says
