Mahlani

I woke up to my alarm going off. I rolled over checking the time on my phone. It was 8:45am and I sighed getting out of bed. Ken was at football practice from 8am-5pm which I was so thankful for. My interview was set at 10:30am. I stretched and walked to the bathroom turning on the shower. Before I got in the shower I brushed my teeth. I stripped from my clothing and then stepped into the shower. I washed up with my favorite body wash that smelled like roses. It smelled so sweet.

After 15 minutes I stepped out the shower and wrapped a towel around my body. I placed lotion on, deodorant, and I made sure I washed and moisturized my face. Luckily I already picked out my outfit for the interview. A red pencil skirt, white shirt, and a red blazer to match the skirt. I wanted to be comfortable and give my feet a break from heels so I decided on some white flats. I went into the bathroom and put on red lipsyick and mascara. I didn't have any scars or bruises so I was finally able to have a bare face (no foundation).

I brushed my hair into a sleek back bun. I made sure I looked decent and sprayed on my favorite perfume from Victoria's Secret. I grabbed my black purse and my phone. I checked the time and saw that it was going on 9:30. I grabbed a banana and ate it. I grabbed a bottle of water and my keys off of the counter. I walked out the door and made sure to lock the door.

I got into my Range Rover and made my way towards OVO Sound Office Building. I placed the address into the GPS on my phone. I arrived there within 25 minutes. I checked the time and saw it was 10:03. I got out the car and placed my purse over my shoulder. I walked inside and looked around amazed. I went up to the front desk and saw a lady sitting there. She smiled at me.

"Good morning, how can I help you?" She asked while I returned the smile before speaking.

"Good morning, I'm here for an interview at 10:30. My name is Mahlani Bertilli." I told her.

"Ahh yes, you can go ahead and head up there now. The elevators are right across there." She said painting to the elevators. "You're gonna go to the 7th floor and it'll be the big room right in front of you as soon as you get off." She explained.

"Okay thank you." I said smiling.

"My pleasure." I walked to the elevator and pressed the up button. The elevator dinged and I stepped on pressing the 7. I played with my hands starting to get a little nervous. I didn't know what to expect. I sighed and tried to calm myself down by thinking happy thoughts and staying positive. I looked up and saw that I was only on the 5th floor but the elevator stopped and opened. A couple of people walked on. I grabbed my phone out of my purse making sure it was on silent and I place sit back in my purse. The elevator stopped on 7.

"Excuse me." I said getting off the elevator. I saw the big meeting room in front of me and I sighed. I opened the door and sat down. I looked at my watch and saw that it was 10:15. I was sitting at the end of the table and I heard the door open. I looked over and I saw Aubrey. We looked at each other and smiled.

"Hey you." I said giggling and standing up. We hugged and I took in his scent.

"Hey Mahlani." He said sitting in the chair next to me. "Are you ready for your interview?" He asked me as I sat down.

"I am, but I'm really nervous because I don't know what to expect." I said sighing.

"Don't worry, everything is gonna go fine. You'll do good trust me." He said.

"Okay, thank you I needed that." I said.

"You look good." He said looking me up and down. I blushed a little while smiling.
