Jade's POV

I groaned as the faint sound of an alarm became louder.

My clock read 7:35 a.m.

I don't even remember setting my alarm to that time.

Screw 7:35 a.m!

I slammed the snooze button with my hand.

I put my pillow over my head as an attempt to go back to sleep again.

I was doing fine.

For two seconds.

My phone began ringing loudly.

Why do I have this thing at max volume?

I grabbed my phone and answered it angrily.

"What!?" I yelled.

"Well is that any way to speak to your father?" The person on the other line answered.

I groaned. "Sorry dad, but if I wake up before 8 you know I get grouchy."

He chuckled. "I just wanted to check in."

"But my interview isn't until 9." I pointed out,.

"Well, then you better get ready."

"I have enough time to get there."

"Are you questioning my authority cadet?"

"Fine! Fine! I'm getting up." I rolled my eyes even if he couldn't see me.

"You are in your mid-twenties and you still can not wake up in time."

"Bye, dad."

He laughed. "Bye Jady."

I cringed at the nickname he had for me.

He's called me that since I was a kid and it's always made me cringe.

I hung up the phone and tossed it to the other side of my bed.

I'm guessing I should introduce myself now.

My name is Jade Holt.

I'm 25 years old.

I have long straightened light brown, caramel colored hair.

My eyes are a shade of sapphire blue.

I bet you're wondering about that interview.

It's a job interview.

It's not really for something that is not really my thing but I'm grateful for the interview.

I need a job.

Rent doesn't come cheap.

I had just moved to a new town.

Right now I am living in an apartment building outside of the city.

My dad helped me pay for the first part of the rent but I felt bad.

So I am trying to work to pay him back.

I quickly got dressed in business casual clothes.

I grabbed a hair tie and put my long hair into a bun.

I grabbed my wallet, phone, and keys in my hand and walked out the door.

I took the stairs to the lobby of the apartment building.

I walked out the lobby doors and made my way to the taxi waiting for me on the curb.

I opened the door and sat in the back seat.
