Chapter 3: Chapter 3: Interview
Angel's POV:
I woke up to the sun beaming in my face. I covered my face and rolled over. Then my alarm went off. I sighed. I sat up and rubbed my face. I opened my eyes and saw that I had text messages from someone. I looked at it. There were text messages from Skylar and Riley. There was also one from Peter. He asked me what my power is now that I've upgraded my wings. I honestly didn't know yet.
Once you get your Evaluation, you also get a special power. But like the wings, it comes after twenty four hours after upgrading your wings. Your body and wings needed time to heal. I stood up and stretched. I walked to the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. I looked at my wings. I made them flap themselves. I smiled and took a shower. I let the water wash over me. My wings fluttered as the water soothed them.
I flew to my room and got dressed. I walked out the door and to my car. I got in. I would just fly to work but Wanda gives me a lot of paperwork to do and I can't carry all of it. I drove off to my job and parked. I looked up at the building and sighed. Another day at this hellhole. I got out and ran inside. I saw the receptionist. She was a white girl. She looked up at me and smiled. "Oh hello." She said. "Hi? Uh where's Rasheeda? She was here-" she cut me off.
"She got fired yesterday." She said. I gasped. "Are you serious?" I asked. She nodded. "Yep. But good thing too. I needed this job. I have bills to pay." She said, happily. So did Rasheeda. I headed for the elevator. I pressed for the tenth floor. When elevator doors opened, I walked out and immediately seen Peter. He didn't look so well. I ran up to him. "Peter what's up? I just heard Rasheeda got fired yesterday?" I said.
He nodded. "What's wrong?" I asked. "Wanda just fired me too." He said, sadly. My heart sank. "Oh my God what? No way."'I said. He nodded. "Yep. Wanda has been firing people left and right." He said. "She must be in one of her moods." I said. "No. She's never in this kind of mood unless someone fucked up real bad." He said. Then we heard footsteps approaching. "I thought you'd be gone by now?" Wanda said, glaring at Peter.
"Bitch I'm going!!" Peter yelled. She was surprised at him. "Bitch?" She repeated. "Bitch." Peter said, sternly. "Get the fuck out of my building." Wanda said, lowly. "It's not yours. It's your husband's." Peter said. "I own it." She said. "No actually HE owns it. It's in his name. I know from all of the FUCKING PAPERWORK AND EMAILS YOU HAD ME DO!!" Peter shouted. People looked at us.
"Peter either you get there fuck outta- know what? No. Stay right there." Wanda said. She walked away. I looked at Peter. He continued to pack up his stuff. "Peter-" he cut me off. "Don't Angel. Let me get out of here before that bitch calls the cops. I already have two strikes." He said. He walked to the elevator and it went down. My heart crumbled up. I walked away and over to Wanda's office. I knocked on the door.
"Enter." She said. I walked in cautiously. She stared at me. "I-I have your coffee and everything." I said, put fear I'd be fired next. She walked over to me. "Good. With all of this stress, I could use some coffee." She said. And some dick. She looked at me. Uh oh. Did I say that out loud? "I'm glad you're here Angel. Yesterday, I told you I had a special assignment for you." She said, as she pulled me over to her desk.
"Ye-yes ma'am. May I ask what is it?" I asked. Wanda looked up at me and walked up to me slowly. "I was meant to have an interview done with the son of the owner of Hunter Corporation." She said. I nodded. "I've heard of that place. It's on the other side of town." I said. She nodded. "Precisely. Glad you know where it is." She said. "So you're going to do the interview over there at Hunter Corporation?" I asked, smiling.
She didn't smile. I quickly wiped the smile off my face. "Well I would go but I fucked one of the executives there." She said. "Oh." I said. She nodded. "Yeah. Anyways, I had scheduled an interview with them after I fucked one of the executives." She said. "Okay?" I said. "The thing is I don't like Hunter Corporation." She said. "So why schedule an interview with them?" I asked. "Why? Because we're enemies." She said.
"Because you had sexual relations with one of the executives?" I asked, curiously. "What? No. We've always had bad blood. I just wanted to piss them off even more. Anyways, I was gonna have Down syndrome girl do it but she's incapable of performing such a task." She said. She looked at me and smirked. "So now you'll be doing the interview." She said, as she handed me a clipboard with papers.
I looked at her. "These are a lot of papers." I said. She narrowed her eyes at me. Her demon wings fluttered. "Is that a problem?" She asked, in her Russian accent. When that accent comes out, she's pissed. I quickly shook my head. "No ma'am. Not at all." I said. I really didn't want to be fired. I needed this job. It pays well. I've been saving up to get my dream house. Right now, I have about over four hundred thousand dollars saved up.
"Angel, you are to go to Hunter Corporation and ask the son of the owner these questions." Wanda said. I looked down at the questions. I scanned through some. "Wanda, no offense, but some of these questions are extremely personal." I said. She glared at me and stalked towards me. I backed up with every step she took. "Angel you are paid to do what I say, not back talk me. Unless you wanna be next in line to get fired." She said, smirking. Her Russian accent was still there and it was thick.
I shook my head sadly. She put her finger under my chin and made me look at her. "Good girl. Now go to Hunter Corporation and ask the son these questions. Hunter Corporation is the biggest, most productive, and richest business in town. I can't believe my company is second to that." She said. She walked back to her desk and sat down. She looked up at me. "Why are you still here? Go! Now!!" She said.
I turned around and ran out the door. I took the elevator down. I ran out to my car. I saw Peter standing beside it. His angel wings fluttered when he saw me. "Hey. I would've thought you'd left already." I said. "I am but I wanted to say goodbye. I'm going to try Bahamas bitch!! My husband just got promoted and he got an advance on his pay. This break is just what I needed." He said. "Lucky." I said, as I unlocked my car door.
"Where you going? You got fired too? Come on. Let's do happy hour before I leave." He said. No I didn't get fired thank God. I just gotta do this interview at Hunter Corporation." I said. "That's on the other side of town." He said. "I know but she wants me to get it done." I said. "Know what? I'm so glad that she devil fired me. Now I can go about my business, live my life, discover new things-" I cut him off. "So how you gon tell your husband you got fired?" I asked.
He grew silent. He blew a breath and looked at the passing cars. "I don't know yet. But he is gonna flip. I'll tell him after the Bahamas. I'll find a new job when I come back." He said. "Take care Peter." I said, as I got in the car. "Bye Angel." He said. I watched him walk off to his car. He got in and drove off. I drove off. As I drove, I thought at the clipboard full of questions. I pulled up and got out. I looked up at the huge building. It's enormous.
I walked in the doors and saw the receptionist. She looked up at me and stared. I have a small wave but she didn't wave back. I walked up to her. "Can I help you?" She asked, with attitude. "I'm-I'm here for an interview." I said, softly. She laughed. "You? Working here? Please." She said. Don't smack her Angel. "Angel?" Someone called. I turned my head and saw Skylar. I squealed and ran over to her. We hugged.
"Oh my God hey. You work here?" I asked. She shook her head. "No. My boss sent me here to interview the owner." She said. "Really? No way. My boss sent me here for the exact same reason." I said. She grinned. "Whoa. Angel? Skylar?" Someone said. We turned around to see Riley. She came over and sat down next to us. "What are you guys doing here?" She asked.
"We're both here because our bosses wants us to interview the owner of this corporation." Skylar said. "Why are you here?" I asked, curiously. "I'm here because I'm the editor of a magazine company. They wanted me to get a hot scoop on what happens over here." Riley said. "Oh my God. So we're all gonna get some information on this place." I said. "I guess we are." Skylar said. "Come on up. I just came back from my car because I forgot my pen." Riley said.
She took us to the elevator. As the doors closed, the receptionist glared at me. "Hey guys. Do y'all know the receptionist? She was giving me dirty looks." I said. "Yeah I know her. She's a real bitch. Just ignore her." Riley said. When the elevator doors opened, we walked out. I looked around. "This place is nice." I said. "Yes it is. Hunter Corporation keeps everything nice and clean." Skylar said.
We walked down the hall and saw a blonde sitting down on one of the couches. I immediately recognized her. I rolled my eyes and sat down far away from her. Riley and Skylar sat down next to me. "Angel you good?" Skylar asked. I nodded. "Angel? Angel Starlight? I thought I smelled your scent." Loren said. She came over to me. I stood up. I didn't like sitting down with that bitch around. "Loren keep walking." Skylar said.
"Yeah please keep walking. Don't make me fuck you up like I did last time." Riley said. "Wait you guys know her too?" I asked. They both nodded. "Who doesn't know Loren? She's a home wrecker. She slept with my ex boyfriend." Skylar said. "Yeah and she slept with my ex boyfriend and my step Dad. My Mom grew depressed because of you." Riley said. I looked at Loren. "Wow Loren. You just created a new world record: being the absolute worst hoe." I said.
She took a step towards me. I didn't back down. I squared up. "Come on bitch. Come get this work." I said, as I threw down the clipboard. It clattered to the floor, making a loud noise. Everyone looked at us. "Wow Angel. I see you grew balls since the last time I saw you which was....two weeks ago." Loren said. I rolled my eyes. "But I been had balls. I just try my best not to snap your neck. You're just mad." I said. She cackled. "Mad? For what?" She asked. I smirked.
"Because I have angel wings and you don't." I said. She glared at me. "Bitch I will fuck you up." She said. "Do it. Do it!!!" I yelled. People started gathering around us. "Angel come to the bathroom right fast." Skylar said, then she pulled me away. Riley came with us. We walked in the bathroom. I tried to calm myself down. "Honestly Skylar, you should've let Angel handle her. I'd love to. I wanna try out my new power." Riley said. We looked at her. "What's you power?" I asked.
Riley touched the hand blow dryer. It began to freeze itself. "Whoa. You have ice powers?" I said. "I bet you can freeze anyone to death." Skylar said. Riley nodded. "Yep. That's why I wanna handle Loren so badly." She said. "What about you Skylar? What can you do?" I asked, curiously. She smirked and raised her hand. Suddenly, a dog appeared. "Whoa. You can create animals?" Riley asked. "Not really. They're illusions. I can create illusions and trick the mind." Skylar said.
She looked at me. "So Angel what can you do?" She asked. I shrugged. "I don't know. I haven't tried anything yet." I said. "Well let's see." Riley said. I tried to focus myself on what kind of power I had when suddenly the door burst open and Loren walked in. "So y'all in here hiding?" She said. I rolled my eyes and brushed past her. She pushed me. "Bitch don't brush past me like that." She said loudly, gaining the attention of everyone around us.
I looked around and looked back at Loren. "Loren why you doing all of this? You just looking for attention." I said. "She really is." Riley said. "Shut the fuck up Riley. This has nothing to do with you." Loren said. "Don't talk to her like that." I said. She got in my face. "Or what?" She asked. "You really wanna find out?" I said. She glared at me but I wasn't scared. I enter back down from a fight.
"That's what I thought. Honestly Loren I don't know why you do the shit you do. You fuck everyone's boyfriends because you can't keep one." I said. She scoffed. "Bitch I can have any man I want." She said. "Please. You couldn't even get mine back in middle school. But I guess back then, you were a virgin just like me." I said. "Honey, back in middle school, I lost my virginity, something I'm sure you still haven't done." She said.
My blood boiled. Nobody needs to know I'm still a virgin. "Please. Loren back then, you suck one dick and suddenly you're an expert." I said. She scoffed. "That's not true. I've sucked lots of dicks honey." She said. "And that makes you a hoe." I said. Everyone all ooh'd at my insult. "Damn. You walked right into that trap." Riley said. I smiled. Loren lunged for me but I stood my ground. She touched my arm.
"Angel walk away and leave this building before I fuck you up." She said. I looked down at her hand then at her. "Bitch if you don't take yo hands off of me." I said, snatching out of her grasp. She looked down at her hands. "Why didn't it work?" She asked. "Why didn't what work?" Skylar asked. "My powers. I can control people by just touching them. They do whatever I tell them." Loren said. She looked at me. "So why didn't you?" She asked.
Skylar gasped. "Angel that's it!" She cried. "What's it?" I asked. "You're immune!! That's why it didn't work!! That's your power. You're a shield." She said. "How do you know?" I asked, curiously. Riley then touched my arm and squeezed it. She then gasped. "It's true!! She is immune. Angel yore are a shield." She said. Everyone then began to murmur. "That's extremely rare Angel. You're extremely rare." Skylar said.
I smirked at Loren. She glared at me. "Huh. So I am extremely rare while you're still and always will be a basic ass bitch." I said. She lunged for me. I stepped forward, ready to defend myself. Then someone cleared their throat. We turned our heads to see the guy I'm supposed to have an interview with. I took in his features. Damn he fine as fuck. I bit my lip as he walked towards me. "There's no fighting in this building." He said. I nodded.
"Yes sir. Sorry sir." I said. I sound stupid. "I'm sorry Caleb. It's just Angel here started drama for no reason." Loren said, as she walked over to him. She rested her arm on his shoulder. Putting her hand on his chest, she smirked and said, "I'll apologize and make it up to you later on." He didn't look at her. He kept his eyes on me. The way he stared at me made me excited yet scared at the same time. He stared at me before coming closer.
"So you're Angel? Angel Starlight?" He asked. I nodded. "Ye-yes sir." I said. His eyes held mine. I got scared and looked away. "I'm su-supposed to be in-interviewing Ca-Caleb Hunter." I said, stuttering. I was so nervous. I looked up to see him still staring at me. "That's me." He said, blankly. Two boys walked up beside him. One was black and the other was Native American. "So you're one of the girls whose supposed to be interviewing us." The black boy said.
I nodded. I looked back at the girls. Caleb pulled out a clipboard and looked at it. "Which one of you is Skylar and Riley?" He asked, looking around. Skylar and Riley both raised their hands. They walked over to me. They boys watched them carefully. I put my arms on the girls back to calm me down. "So you all are friends or something?" The Native American boy asked. We all nodded. "Ye-yes sir." Riley said.
The boy raised his eyebrows and looked at Caleb and the black dude. "Come on in." He said. I looked at the girls. We stuck close to each other and walked past the three boys. I 'accidentally' brushed up against Caleb. I was scared to look back and see his reaction, though something told me I shouldn't. Me, Riley, and Skylar sat down a small couch. We got our clipboards out and looked up to see the three boys staring at us. It was a long moment of silence.
The only sound being heard was the clock ticking on the wall. "So are either of you gonna ask us questions or are y'all just gonna sit there?" Caleb asked. I nodded quickly. "Oh yes sorry." I said, in a high voice. I cleared my throat and asked the first question on clipboard. Lord Jesus help me.
