Struggle

MELISSA'S POV:

Hair done, dress done, nude makeup done. So I am now finally set to go to my new office and I got to know that I have to struggle a lot to get a better place for myself yesterday when I went to office for reporting for the first time. I got the job of junior most model in the NEW ERA Modelling Company which works with different companies which demands for models for promotion of their products. As I do not have any special experience regarding modelling neither I had any kind of training, I'll have to start from zero and guess what? None of my tricks are going to help me cause all the people working in office from the boss to clerk are all women duh.

I luckily got a small apartment for myself with the minimal rent and this sucks! Just let me earn some money, I'll get a standard apartment for myself which I actually deserve. I won't have to live in this small and stinking apartment then. I walked five whole floor down as there's no lift in this seven floor building Gosh! Where I used to live on my own house in Montana and here I am now living in this sulking place. Don't worry Melissa, you'll get even a bigger house than the previous one. It's just deal of a year or two maximum. I went towards the parking on the main road waiting for the bus to arrive so that I can go to office on time. I remembered how I used to roam around the streets on my car and today, here I'm waiting for the bus. I had to sell everything out in Montana to settle here and I'll make sure I'll earn triple than that.

Gosh, it was so hectic to travel in bus but thankfully, I am in my office now. Wow, the building is so good and look at it's height! I'll reach to the same height one day for sure. Let me go inside now. I was smiling while entering inside with my bag hanging on my hand cause I've always been told that my smile has charisma and I know that. My smile will help me to gain my dreams early. I smiled at the receptionist and she looked at me as if she's seen a ghost. God, what's wrong with her?

Anyways, I didn't bother much and started walking towards my boss's cabin. "Good morning Ms. Amanda." I wished with the best smile I could give and she, neither replied to my good morning not returned a smile to me. "What's your reporting time Ms. Melissa Swan?" Her cold voice sent chills down my spine but I didn't let it show in my face. I shouldn't let my confidence move in front of her. "Nine thirty am Ma'am." I replied to which she indicated me to look behind me with her eyes. Following her lead, I looked behind me and my eyes fell upon the wall clock and the time was nine thirty six am. Oh, so she means to say that I'm late. "I.. I am sorry ma'am. I won't repeat it from next time." It's just six minutes right? And it's my first day at work for God's sake. Why does she have to behave like I've committed some kind of crime in such a simple matter but of course, I can't say it aloud.

"This company earns a hundred thousand every minute and you're six minutes late which contributes to six hundred thousand loss for the company. Are you going to pay for it?" My eyes widened in shock. Six hundred thousand dollars? I barely have seventy thousand dollars in my bank account and that too after selling my everything. How am I supposed to pay six hundred thousand dollars? "Ma...Ma'am I'm sorry. I promise I won't repeat the same mistake again." I immediately apologised in front of her with my head hung low. I can't take risk, I need to save myself at any cost.

"The same repetition again, you'll be out of job and any other mistakes, you'll compensate for it. And mind one thing, the more number of mistakes you'll make, the more chances of you getting out of the company, is that clear?" Her voice was so cold that I couldn't help but shiver on her warning. "Ye.. Yes ma'am." I bowed in front of her and walked out of the cabin to go towards the practice room when the receptionist looked at me with pity. Pity, ugh... I used to be the one to look at other staff with pity when I would snatch their promotions with my shortcut before but here, I'm getting pitiful gazes. I'll surely make her regret once I reach into height I'm desiring for.

"Melissa, you'll be looking after the dress and footwear of our senior model today." The head trainer ordered me as soon as I reached to her. What? I'll look after dresses and footwear for others? "But ma'am, I'm supposed to get training for myself." Astonished with her words, I couldn't help but ask her to which she gave me a mocking smile. "This is just the beginning of the training. You'll experience about the brands of dresses and footwear a model should use as per their class by doing this. What did you think, you'll be taught to walk on ramp directly? Go and do your work now." How badly I wanted to shout on her for insulting me but I can't risk my job. Shit! Just let me be successful one day, I'll make you pay for sure.

One, two, three.... fifteen. After running behind fifteen models with their dresses and footwear for three whole hours, I finally got a break. I wanted to get out of here and take some fresh air to cool my mind so I started walking towards the cafeteria on the ground floor. Just as I was about to take a turn, a sound of parking of a car attracted me. I turned around to see a beautiful car in some distance away from me and the only word that escaped from my mouth was "Wow!"

I was busy on admiring the car when the door opened and a... oh my god! That's a freaking hot man! Oh my god, he... is... so... handsome! My eyes were glued on him while he started walking towards the VIP area and look at his style of walking! Such a macho man. You caught my attention gentleman and now I know, I'll catch your attention too! I've got my eyes on you now.
