Vina's pov***
I heard my name numerous times...... I think someone's calling me to open the door...... Oh it's Sana. I lazily got up from my bed and reached the door.
I opened the door " what is it so early........" I stopped yelling as soon as I saw my brother standing behind Sana. My brother smiled as he saw me and I turned around to check if my duvet covered Oliver's body or not.
"Who's here last night? " Dave asked standing there with hands in his pockets.
" All my friends brother " I answered with a smile to cover my expression.
" No, I mean someone else"
"No one.. Who would I bring over? "
He entered my room and went to my closet, he opened it to see no one.
" If someone was sleeping over here I would tell you. "
" How would I know if there's someone or not? You're acting this suspicious Vina"
I groaned and went to him, i grabbed his arm and tried to pull him out from my room but he didn't move an inch. Vina... Just throw him out of the room or he'll caught oliver. As I'm thinking my brother kneeled down beside my bed pulling my duvet which is blocking view. I closed my eyes....... And let out a scream.
He lifted his head to see me "Hey! Why are you screaming?"
Without answering him I kneeled down beside him and tilted my head to see only my pillow which I gave him last night. Where is he?? Where has he gone? I let out a sigh in relief before getting up from my position. Dave following me.
"Nothing brother... I'm just practicing my voice early in the morning. " I replied with a smirk on my face.
" Are you crazy? Are you trying to kill me with your singing skills? " he asked sarcastically.
I just smirked at him and turned my heard. He stared at me suspiciously and walked out of my room.
" Where is he? " sana asked me.
" I don't know sana " I answered her scratching the back of my head.

Tan's pov***
" So can you tell me now where you were sleeping last night to come back this morning? " Mia questioned as she stood at door to my room.
I ignored her, getting ready to leave to. My office.
" What are you thinking abandoning your car in the middle of the road with keys inside? "
" You didn't even bring your cellphone. We couldn't contact you. Why are you acting this reckless? Do you know Sam and I had no sleep last night because we were out looking for you? "
I went near her and grabbed my cellphone from her grip" You Charged it? "
" Yea... I charged it."
"Thank you "with that I left her yelling my name from behind.
Mia followed me to office asking me to tell her where I slept last night.
The truth is I too don't know about that.... I woke up at an unknown house I'm sleeping on the floor beside dine table. I stood up and felt a sore feeling on my body. I didn't remember anything how I ended up in that house and what I'm doing there? Why am I lying there? Where's my car? I groaned in pain at the back of my head. I walked out of the house and reached my home.
I ignored Mira and walked to my cabin and on the way I caught a glimpse of something thrown in dustbin beside my receptionist desk. I reached there and bended to pick it from the dustbin. It is an application form which is filled for a check stock post in my company. I opened it, to my surprise it's the application of the girl whom I saw yesterday. There's a photo of her pinned on the application form.
"What's this? " I asked my receptionist holding the application in my hands.
" The applications that we rejected sir "
" Rejected? " I asked him narrowing my eyes.
" But sir If you wish we can reevaluate it"
"What is it Tan? "Mia asked trying to see the application in my hand. I shifted it to my other hand avoiding Mia from seeing. She scowled at me and started to follow me to my cabin.
" Don't change the topic Tan? Just tell me where are you last night? "
I dropped some trash papers on the floor telling her to pick up for me. She kneeled down to grab them. I took this time to enter into my cabin and leaving her outside. I locked my cabin from inside and went towards my desk. Mia knocked the door numerous times telling me to open the door but I didn't lift my head from the application in my hand.
I went through her resume and studied about her. A memory of her in dreams flashed inside my head. I gripped the application tightly in my hand.
Who are you?
I pressed my intercom and told my PA to get anyone from HR department to see me. After sometime He knocked on my door and got inside.
" yes sir" I threw the application form On my desk.
" Set up a time for her to come for a job interview today"
" Okay sir "
" I'll do the interview myself "
" Huh? " he lifted his head widening his eyes.
" Is there any problem? " I asked raising my eyebrows.
" oh, no nothing sir"
" You may go now" I dismissed him.
We finally get to meet now!

Vina's pov***
My friends gathered at my home and I explained everything that has happened at home after they left and this morning. They scolded me for letting an unknown to sleep under my bed. But I don't have other choice to do. It's a minimum humanity. We continued chatting until my brother called me from the living room. I climbed stairs and went to him, he handed me phone.
" Hello"
" Job interview?? "
" when? "
" Time and Date? "
" what today? "
" Okay alright, I can make it " I disconnected.
I jumped in joy ignoring my brother.
" Yes!! I have a job! "
" Yay! From now I don't need to ask money from you " I said pointing a finger towards my brother.
" I'll help pay off this house too. " I giggled turning towards Dave.
" Yes, don't boast up yet. I think they called you for an interview? " He mocked.
I glared at him " Calling for an interview means they're interested in me, it's the same thing. "
I shouted in joy and danced beside my brother he just stood there shaking his head. My friends ran to me hearing my joy. They congratulated me.
After 15 minutes I dressed up and stood in front of the mirror combing my hair. Dave entered my room and inspected me from head to toe.
" How can you wear this for an interview? " he questioned me.
" Why not? They'll hire me, if I look sexy " i said with a smirk.
" Hmm, what position are you looking for ti get? "
" Check stock"
"This is not the dress code for that position my little sister " he said pointing his finger up and down to my dress.
" Dress appropriate for this job, so they'll want to hire you"
" Dressing like that who'll hire you. "
" You think you're pretty or something!! "
I scowled at him and he left my room.
.................................
Tony dropped me in front of the large building and he wished good luck! I entered the building and walked to the receptionist.
" Excuse me miss. Where is the human resources? "
" It's on eighth floor. Take the elevator "
" Thank you " I smiled at her and walked towards the elevator.
I stepped inside the elevator and pressed the button, I looked down to my foot. My shoelace was untied so I kneeled down to tie it. After a second I saw black shoes beside me I think someone got on elevator with me. I tied the lace. I didn't got up from my position.
" Can I see the time? " I asked him and without waiting for an answer from him I grabbed his left arm to see the wrist watch.
" Oh...... It's already noon!! "
" I'm going to be late " I exclaimed.
I then tried to stood up from my position while pulling my shoulder bag with force. Suddenly it hit the person's face who stood beside me. He growled in pain.
" I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I'm so sorry. " I said bowing. I covered my face with my hair and I didn't lift my head to see him.
" Which department are you in? " He asked me.
I'm still looking down to my feet. " I'm new here. I came for an interview " I replied him in my low tone.
" Go home. I'm not hiring you!!! " he yelled at me and stepped out of the elevator and walked away. which is now at 8th floor.
" Hey! Who do you think you're? The owner here!? " I yelled back at him.
Just then the elevator doors closed. I looked to see which floor is this.
" Hey it's 8th floor. " I pressed on button, stepped out of the elevator and ran towards the reception. I handed him my application which is pinned with my resume.
He looked at my resume and then turned to me " Do you know Mr Tan Clayton? "
I shrugged " who's he? "
" Tan Clayton, owner of the company. " someone yelled who sat beside the person who I gave my resume.
" No" I said raising my eyebrows.
" Her education is so so and she didn't have any experience " the one who's holding my resume spoke.
" She's late, she dressed unprofessional. She couldn't find her way. " The woman beside the man spoke.
" I don't understand why Mr Tan wish to interview her himself "
" Yes, that's right" That's it.... I don't hold anymore. I hit the desk with my right fist and they turned towards me. I leaned on the desk.
" Hey are you gossiping or insulting me? "
" If you're gossiping, just be quieter. But if you're going to insult me then do it on my face " I said irritatingly pointing a finger to my face.
The woman beside the man turned to him " She's rude too". I controlled my anger after listening to them.
He stood up from his seat and came to me.
" come come, follow me "
I just followed him and he stopped at a desk where I assume she's the PA of Mr Clayton.
He told about me to her, she nodded and pressed the intercom.
" What is it? " a male voice came.
" Sir, Miss Romaine is here"
" Where is she now? " he asked.
" She's in front of your room "
" Send her in "
She nodded her head to me signaling to go inside. I shrugged and walked to the door. I knocked it and heard a voice ' come in' I twisted the handle of the door it opened and I entered the room closing the door behind me. I took my surrounding and stood there in awe.....Just then I realized that I was here for an interview. I kept my head down and greeted him 'hello' without looking at him.
" Hey it's you!! " He stated. I then lifted my head to see Oliver standing from his chair.
He dressed professionally. His hair combed back.
" Oliver!! " I called.
I scanned him from head to toe with my eyes widening
A smile appeared on my lips and I instantly ran to him and stood beside him.
" It really is you!! " I exclaimed.
" What are you doing here Oliver? "
" How are you? And How are you feeling? "
" Suddenly you disappeared from my house. I was very worried about you. "
I realized that it was me who's talking. Why is he not uttering a word? I frowned at him.
" what are you talking about? " he asked rudely.
I dropped my resume on his desk " Hey! Have you forgotten? " I'm Vina"
" How's your wound anyway? Let me see it " I placed my hand on his left shoulder.
He retracted his body from my hold and stepped back " Hey you! Do we know each other? "
" Hey you don't remember. Yesterday you went to my house and I took you to police station and then you came back. You hide inside the bathroom. "
" No!!! " he yelled at me " You got the wrong person " He said placing both hands on his hips.
" How's it possible? Are you twins? " I asked him.
" No " he replied.
" Then it's you " I stated pointing a finger towards him.
" You're the one who slept with me yesterday "
" Huh?? " he said widening his eyes.
" yes you slept with me"
" No way you're not my type!! " he turned away from me.
" How dare you say that! Last night you followed me like a newborn baby. " he frowned his face at my statement.
" Fine if you don't recognize me."
"But I'll tell that it's me who saved your life. You have to hire me. Okay? " I stated as I slumped my bag on his desk making a loud thud.
" No. I'm not hiring you. " he turned away from me.
" hey why? what happened? You can interview me first. Then you decide what to do" I said placing my right hand on my hip.
"No, I'm not interviewing anymore."
"you called me for interview. I came and now you're telling me that you'll not interview me anymore. I wasted my time because of you.What a bad person you are! "
" what did you just say?" He turned to face me and he narrowed his eyes at me and stepped forward in my direction.
" I'm telling that you're crazy. I'm leaving bye." I took my shoulder bag from desk and walked towards the door.
"Wait! Where are you going? You can't go like that." I stopped in my tracks and turned to face him as I listened his words.
"You just insulted me by calling for an interview which is not done and wasted my time. Now you are giving me orders too! What are you thinking about yourself Mr. Tan Clayton?" I stated lifting my brows.
As he didn't say anything.
"you are crazy..... I'm leaving." I turned and walked to door as I hold the door handle to pull it but just then I saw a glass hitting the door. It just missed me!! I looked down the shattered glass and lifted my head to glare at him. He's already glaring towards my direction.
"How dare you throw a glass at me!? "
"I didn't throw. It just flew by itself." he said shrugging his shoulder.
"you expect me to believe it."
"yeah."
I fumed with anger. I dropped my bag and grabbed a cushion lying on the nearby couch and threw it on his direction. He didn't allow it to hit his face instead he caught it with his hands.
" Don't ever show your face to me outside... Otherwise I'll throw something sharp thing into your eyes" I said pointing a finger towards him.
I grabbed my bag which is on the floor, opened the door and rushed outside. As soon as I'm out, the three people including his PA were staring at me with wide eyes.
" What are you staring at? "
" Have you not seen a jobless person!? " I yelled.
I went outside the building and started walking. I'm mad at him. How dare he to treat me in that way? I helped him but instead of thanking me he insulted me. Seriously Vina!!! I want to kick him hard.
A cardboard box caught my attention and I just kicked it with my right foot it collided with the steps of the entrance and I slightly satisfied as I thought I kicked him and walked to the nearby bus stop to go home.
To be continued.............
