Chapter 8
Amelia
I and Romeo talked for long before going back to the waiting room. I could see some people that came for the interview leave immediately they entered, some left grudgingly, some quietly and I couldn't help but wonder what's going on in there, I also prayed I will do well.
Romeo was called few minutes later and I whispered a good luck to him which he accepted with a smile, seems the line was moving faster than expected. Romeo came out of the room, anger written all over his face, I waved at him but he whispered "see you soon" to me with that, he left the room and building entirely.
What just happened?, This is not the Romeo I was chatting with earlier. In our little discussion, I found out that he was intelligent and good for the job, then what happened?. I was still sitting on my seat waiting for my turn.
I was beginning to feel bored and decided to take a little rest but was awoken by the voice of a lady who was obviously not happy with the way she was interviewed as she cursed at the top of her voice. I was forced to ask the lady beside me who was scrolling down her phone what number the angry lady was. "Urmm, 100 I think" she answered her eyes still on her phone.
I stood up abruptly and dashed into the nearby toilet to look presentable again before I'm called out. I came out immediately my number was called, so I picked my CV and walked quietly into the room.

There were three interviewers in the room including the lady that addressed us earlier. The man who sat in the middle looked daring and possessed a lot of power, just by mere looking at him, you will know he's the boss. He never looked up nor smiled, the man at his right however smiled at me which I returned.
"Good day" I greeted standing in front of my interviewers, "good day miss, you may sit" the other man said and I sat quietly after muttering a thanks to him.
"Your CV?" The one in the middle demanded, "here sir" I answered quickly placing it before him. "Miss Amelia Whites, do you have a special reason for wanting to work here?" He asked raising his face to look at me. "Nothing really, I wish to experience working in Stones group of companies since it have been my dream" I answered truthfully. "Get me the glass of water over there" he said turning to my CV and I dashed out to get the cup when he said "leave it", okay this man is strange but I obeyed afterwards, I was asked other questions and was dismissed just like others.
I walked back to the receptionist to drop my tag. "Hi again, I'm Jennifer"she smiled. "Okay" I said dropping my tag in front of her, "do have a nice day" she said stretching out her hand for a handshake that I almost refused but later accepted with a faux smile, why is she being friendly all of a sudden? "You too" I replied dashing out of the building.
I began to stroll on the sidewalk, smiling and greeting people I met on the way when something caught my eyes.
It was Romeo and it looked like he was being scolded for something as his head was bowed in shame and a man spoke angrily to him. Strangely, I felt something was wrong and my inquisitive side wanted to find out every detail. I hid behind a wall close by and strained my ear to listen to their conversation but they stopped talking. Romeo looked around suspiciously like he noticed someone was watching and I hide more, my heart beating fast. He and the man who was wearing dark shades entered their car and drove off immediately.
I breathed in relief and left the wall and boarded a taxi home as I was very tired. What's up with Romeo and that man, is he perhaps his son? Why should he scold him when the result of the interview isn't out yet? Well that's their problem. I concluded relaxing on the seat in the taxi.
Amelia
I was very tired by the time I got home. I removed my shoes and rubbed my ankle sighing in satisfaction as it seemed to release the pain.
With my shoes in hand, I walked inside my room to find Daisy on my bed typing away in her laptop. I walked in fully and she looked up at me smiling.
"Hey girl, how did it go?" She asked, "good?" I answered moving straight to the bathroom.
I came out minutes later and wore my pyjamas, then plonked on the bed with a thump.
