Chapter 1
- NATASHA'S POV
- "Bang Bang into the room, I Know you want it" ,
- I reached for my phone to turn off the alarm, I don't think I've slept that much. I've been practicing for my interview as a nanny.
- I quickly took my bath and made coffee with Scrambled eggs while I sit on the high stool in my kitchen thinking as I sip my coffee.
- I took out my phone again to Browse on possible questions that could be asked for Nanny's interview.
- I checked my time and it's six, I'm almost getting late. I quickly stood up and washed my empty cup and took my side bag.
- I don't want to be late for anything. This job means alot to me, I've been going for lots of interviews but to no avail.
- I trekked to the bus station to wait for bus and as God will have it, the bus came right in time.
- when I got to the location, standing in front of me is a large three storey building and which left me confused because I was expecting to see a house and not a company as big, tall as this.
- I brought out my phone to cross check the venue again and it is this same place. I summoned the courage and went inside the building.
- The inside is so beautiful and everyone is dressing corporate which made me feel like an outcast.
- "Excuse me please, I don't know if this is the right place but I am actually here for an interview for the post of a Nanny", I asked a tall beautiful lady in suit.
- The lady looked at me but I can see the weird look she is giving me. she points to a secluded area.
- "That's the reception over there, maybe you can go ask", she said while she left with her heels clicking to the floor.
- I walked up to the secluded area she directed me to.
- "Good morning Ma'am, I am here for an interview". I said to the lady sitting in the office.
- "What type of interview?", she asked looking at me interrogatively.
- "Uhmmm, for a nanny. I saw the interview on Job vacancy app", I told her.
- "Thought as much", she whispered to herself but I heard her anyways.
- "The third floor, she answered but please make use of the stairs, The elevator is only for the workers in this company" , she mockingly said.
- "Thank you". I left for the third floor.
- On getting to the third floor, everyone is busy in their respective cubicles, typing away on their desktop.
- I felt lost and stranded. who should i ask.
- "Hey, excuse me miss", Someone said and i turned to see a young guy approaching towards me
- "Please, I am here for an interview for the post of a nanny. I don't know if I am in the right place.", I asked the guy.
- "oh, ok. you just walk through that passage and you will see some group of women sitting on a queue, also waiting to be interviewed." he pointed.
- "Thank you Sir".
- on reaching there as instructed by the guy, I looked for an empty sit.
- I noticed that I am the only one wearing jeans and a shirt.,
- Natasha you Never take anything serious. I thought to myself.
- Most of the women are staring at me with disgusting look on their faces.maybe because I was wearing a baggy Jean with a baggy t-shirt. I wouldn't blame them for that, I thought it will be a casual interview at the person's home and not in a big tech company as this.
- The interview took longer time than I expected. I am so hungry and I didn't bring snacks along. it's almost six pm.
- Number seventeen just went in and I will be next, I became so anxious and my palm all sweaty.
- The lady that went in came out and she is also looking as angry as the rest of the applicants who left.
- God, my heart is beating so fast, as I summoned courage to go in.
- I don't even know if I should knock the door.
- On the door is a name plate, with an indication boldly written " The CEO's OFFICE".
- "Come in". A deep male instructed from the other side of the room.
- How did the person know i was standing in front of his office, I thought.
- A very handsome guy in suit is Sitting behind a table typing away on his computer. he looks so attractive and some of his hair are falling back to his face.
- watching him is making me feel some certain kind of way, He is too handsome.
- "If you are going to stand there at the door, then it is just as good as you leaving my Office Miss. Natasha.", the guy bluntly said.
- "I am so sorry Sir". I apologized as I moved closer to his table.
- "You can sit", he said as he continued to type away on his computer.
- I sat there for like five minutes contemplating on whether I should be the one to start talking or to wait for him.
- "Perhaps, you will left your home to come sit in my office to watch Miss Natasha Evans". he said.
- But wait how did he know my name.
- I mentally hit my head, silly me. I've forgotten that I gave my number before joining the long queue.
- "My name is Natasha Evans and i am here for an interview for a Nanny", I calmly said but honestly my heart is beating fast. I pray I make it out of this office alive.
- "Don't you think I know that already". he asked. I mentally hit my head again, now he is going to think I am dumb.
- "How did you come to know about this advertisement", he enquired.
- "What makes you think you will get this Job?". he asked looking at me this time.
- "I am good with kids and I have enough patience with them also. So I assure you that I will give my maximum best to the kid", I answered with much confidence this time around.
- "Married or Single?", he asked.
- "Single", I immediately replied back.
- "Good, a feedback will be sent to your email address if you get the job". he said.
- I think that's a hint he is done with me
- "Thank you sir," I said as I stood up and left Mr CEO's office.
- ANTHONY'S POV:
- The next person that entered the office this time stood at the door.
- I turned my eyes briefly from my computer to see the lady standing at the door, she is chubby and wore a baggy trouser with also a baggy t-shirt.
- Now this is going to be interesting because she is looking distinct from the others.
- "If you are going to stand there at the door, then it is just as well as you leaving my Office Miss. Natasha.", I annoyingly said.
- She seem to return back to wherever she went to.
- "I am so sorry Sir". she apologized as she moved closer to the table holding her side bag as if her life depends on it.
- I can clearly see that she is nervous and i don't blame, I often look intimidating.
- I continued to type away on my computer expecting her to introduce herself.
- After waiting longer than expected, I decided to do the talking.
- Perhaps, I don't think you left your home to come and sit in my office Miss Natasha" I tiredly said.
- "My name is Natasha Evans and i am here for an interview for a position of a Nanny". She introduced.
- "Don't you think i know that already", i looked at with a questioning look.
- "How did you come to know about this interview", asking quickly not wanting to waste time as we have already done.
- "From the Job Vacancy app", instantly replied back.
- "What makes you think you will get this Job?". I am directly looking at her this time. This is the part that will determine if I should hire her for my little Beverly.
- "I am good with kids and i have enough patience with them also. So I assure you that i will give my maximum best to the kid". She boldly replied this time as if it wasn't the lady that was nervous a few minutes ago.
- I can see confidence and truth in what she just said, unlike the rest of the applicants. Some even said they will worship my daughter like a goddess. what a cheap lie.
- "Married or Single?", I asked cause I don't want somebody with a divided attention for my baby.
- "Single", she immediately replied.
- "Good, a feedback will be sent to your email address , that is if you have gotten the job". I stated.
- "Thank you sir", she replied as she stood up and left my office.
