Monday morning has finally arrived and Louisa is super-duper nervous, she thought she had fully prepared herself until now. She blew hot air on her palm to calm herself but to no avail. She was fully dressed for work and she was looking nothing less than a professional was. Her mum and brother stepped in to encourage her and inform her that Anita is waiting for her.
I think my baby is still fidgeting, you have got this my dear so calm down and show them whose daughter you are, can you?
She kept biting her nails, which is one of her signature attitude when she is nervous, she face palmed herself and replied, mom I won't lie to you that I'm not afraid but I will try to hide it.
Come here dearest, look what I prepared for you, she collected the plate from Michael and fed Louisa with the content in the plate. It gives good luck okay, now go and shine my dear.
Louisa just smiled at her mum, thank you mum and Michael; I promise I will make you both proud.
Now let us go to the living room to meet your friend, you do not want to keep her waiting, do you?
She smiled and said after you mom, they all headed to the living room and saw Anita waiting patiently for them and as soon as she heard footsteps she turned to their direction.
Madam, she said referring to Louisa; I guess it took you forever to make up your mind and that explains the reason for this right? Anita inquired
In a way, you are right. Shall we?
Yeah and before I forget, you look so dashing in this outfit
Thanks you girlfriend, bye mum and Michael kisses.
Buy aunty and my little hubby; be good, they both bade the mum and son goodbyes before heading to where Anita parked her car. As soon as they got to their car, Anita placed her right hand on Louisa's and said you have always been very confident do not let that slip away from you. You are better than this, now brace up for anything and do not show this side of you to him.
I will try, in about 35 minutes they got to the company. Louisa hung her mouth open as soon as she came down from the car. Wow girlfriend, this company is in another new level. My God, they must have spent billions to build such an edifice.
Yeah, the top-notch companies we have on this country; you are going to be stunned by the inside. This is just a tip of the iceberg.
You do not say, Louisa said with so much surprise etched on her face. Anita creased her brows at her.
What? Louisa asked upon realizing the look Anita was giving her.
You know; for a person who was fidgeting a while ago, you should not be this happy.
What should I do babes, I cannot help it, and this place is just out of this world and I wonder why I have not come across it before.
Let us go inside before we arrive late, they both headed towards the receptionist and they both greeted her.
Good morning, ma'am the receptionist responded to their greetings
Please we booked an appointment with your boss slated for 7: am.
Are you Mrs. Anita Johnson?
Yes dear, I am.
Okay you can go in, he actually informed me about it, do you know your way around?
Yeah I do, thanks, she has been to his office many times but she was not the receptionist then. Anita went directly to his office with Louisa tailing behind her, Louisa's heartbeat increased drastically but she tried to mask. They met his secretary outside, they greeted her, and they introduced their selves before she allowed them in.
Are you ready for this babe? Anita asked her to ensure that they were on par.
Yes babes, let us do this.
Anita knocked on the door twice before she got a response, come in the voice instructed. She spared Louisa one more glance before nodding her head and opened the door with Louisa tailing behind her.
Good morning Brian, Anita greeted with a smile. How does he manage to outshine every guy with his looks. God what is this guy doing to me.
Morning Anita, have you sit.
Thanks
On the other hand, Louisa was star struck from the figure in front of her; is he an alien or a demi god? She asked herself, she could proudly beat her chest and say that he is the most handsome guy she has ever set her eyes on. She kept looking at the guy and did not see the reaction of Anita. Anita snapped her hands in front of her to bring her out her reverie. She composed herself.
