***GABRIELLA'S PV**
As i enter the room where my interview is held i spot a tall African American man and short woman that looks oddly familiar. We shake hands and they introduce themselves as I do too.
"Hi im Gabriella Williams." I say smiling
"Hi im Jeffrey King and this is my wife Yolanda, we own King Inc. and would really love to have Inspiration around here to put pep in peoples steps." he says laughing while doing a little dance making his wife laugh along with him.
"We sure would darling the business can get rough around here and if we have someone like you to give us a quote of encouragement or something each week, it would surely be nice." she says chuckling adding "not only for us but for everyone around the world too."
Nodding Mr. King says "Oh yes and to clear things up Gabriella your work will be published as all rights reserved to King Inc, but your name will be by you on each one. How does that sound to you love?" Mr. King asks me and I couldn't help but to stand their shocked. After all the events thats happened Im being offered a well paying job in just a day. This is truly a blessing thank you God i think.
Tearing up and unable to speak i just hug them, hard; to let them know what I think. A few minutes pass and I'm able to gather myself as they just pat me on the back telling me "Your welcome" and "Oh it's okay love."
Finally i speak
"How is this even possible? I'm just a random girl without any job experience don't get me wrong i am SO grateful it just feels to good to be true." I say to them
"Honey" Mrs.King says "Nate Campbell would never bring you here if you couldn't do the work. He is one of our closes friends and if Nate says your good then he means it and we trust him completely. Thats how it's possible." She says smiling winking at me.
As we wrap the interview up they ask me if i would like to come to their house for dinner. As if on cue my stomach growls and im glad they didn't here it. It's been a good minute since i've eaten and I didn't know when another meal was gonna come. I accept their invitation in a heart beat.
We all walk out and Nate is outside. Him and Mr.King bump hands and Mr. King's wife gives Nate a friendly hug.
"You were right Nate, She will do perfect." Mr. King says
"Told ya." Nate said winking at me i smile and give him a strong embrace. "Oh thank you for literally running into me Nate" I say and everyone chuckles.
"Ok Gabriella..." Mr. King started to say
"No please call me Gabby." I say
"Ok Gabby, dinner starts at 9:30, that ok?" he asks
"Yes sir." I say wondering how i will ever get there without any money. As if reading my mind Mr.King says
"Oh don't worry Gabby my driver will pick you up so you won't get lost. We stay on Upper East, New York. Where would you like hime to get you? I'll tell him to pick you up from there." he says
" Oh umm." I start nervously
"H-He can just pick me up at the local diner in Manhattan, I like to get my coffee there." I say while laughing nervously.
"Sure thing see you later on Gabri- oh i mean Gabby" He says shaking my hand and turning to leave.
"See you at dinner Gabby, my son and his best friend will be there also." Mrs. King says kissing me on the cheek. Without giving it a thought i say "Ok! Cant wait to meet him."
"You guys better wake that son of yours up though. You know how he sleeps around this time and shows up late for dinner. This is a special dinner for our newest member and he needs to be there." Nate tells them
"Your right buddy. I'll call him now." Mr.King says while he pulls out his phone and dials the number. He puts it on speaker and we all hear it rings three times before a familiar voice picks up with a deep sexy groggy voice. "Hi dad." the man says
"Hey son. Look your gonna have to wake yourself up tonight. We have added a new member to King, Inc and you as Co founder of our business needs to be there to greet her and make her feel welcome. " Mr. King says
"But dad we have over 3,000 staff and we never did this before, why now?" He asks
"Because Jase this one is special." Mr. King says to me winking, but i freeze as i hear him say his name. Jase.... Jase King....it all makes since now. Jase is the Co founder of King Inc. OMG......
***JASE PV***
I get up grumpy because my dad woke me out of my sleep for dinner with a "special member". Im sure they are no different from the others that splits up into 14 groups who does the same thing. Hm special my behind I think as I look at the time. 8 p.m. Great i have enough time for a long shower to wake me up before dinner at 9:30.
I slowly walk to my bathroom and strip. As i do so, i press the call button thats put in every room so i can avoid having to move or search for a phone. I call E.
"What upppp." Eric says loudly into the phone. Shaking my head i say
"Yo E, you want to swing by my parents for some dinner? We have a "special member " thats been hired and they want me to give her a warm welcome to King Inc. Can you believe that man?" I ask but all i hear is girls giggling in the background. UGH really he is always with some random chicks.
"E!" I scream into the phone
"Huh oh yea i'll be there." then he hung up. Ladies and Gents my best friend i think as i climb into the shower.
*** 1 HOUR 15 MINUTES LATER***
I drive my European sports car to the dinner since I gave David the rest of the day off. As im being buzzed in the front gate I just keep thinking this better be good because me and Veronica (my pillow) were sleeping good. I miss her so much.
Anyway i already have a key to my parents house so i just let myself in. The maids take off my jacket and put it away. I follow the mouth watering smell to the Grand dinning room. Then my mouth just hangs open and not because of the food. It was because of who was their centered perfectly around the food. Hazel eyes, Her, My Gabriella.
"Hello Jase." She says softly
"Hi-you-here-hi-uhhh." i speak like im illiterate and she just tries to hide that beautiful smile along with my mother who knows whats wrong with her son.
She whispers to her husband. "Looks like someones been bit by the love bug." she laughs and her husband just looks at his son with knowing because thats the same way he acted and looked when he feel in love with his mother.
"Son close your mouth before a fly get in it and meet our newest member of King Inc. Gabriella Williams."
"WHAT!?" I say and thank them mentally for waking me out of my sleep for this.
