After a long, stressful drive, Anna found herself in the parking lot of LS Associates. Together with her father, she entered a fancy elevator to the third floor, where she was assigned to come in the email.
>>Good morning, dear sir and madam! Welcome to Lane! How may I help?<< Stepping their feet out of the elevator, they were showered with love by the blond secretary.
>>Good morning! My name is Annavera Whites, and I am here for my final interview<< Anna warmly directed back greetings of the secretary and stated the reason for her early presence. The kind secretary, Frances, whose name Anna could read from her badge, quickly typed into the computer after excusing herself. Within thirty seconds, she had feedback for Anna.
>>Yes! You indeed have an appointment scheduled for the next hour. I admire your punctuality, madam<<
The secretary expressed while Anna gave his father a suspicious look.
>>Please fill out this formula and proceed to the waiting room. Your interviewers will be in shortly<<<
Frances continued
>>I appreciate that. Thank you!<<
Anna turned to her father as they walked to the waiting room.
>>Ahem!<< Anna cleared her throat deliberately.
>>Do you have something to tell me, Pa?<<
>>W…hat? I have nothing to hide? It is your mother that…<< Givan inadvertently spilled the tea.
>>So you were not the one to…<<
>>I did not do anything. Susan brought the idea for us to reset your clock to an hour early so that you do not report late to your interview<<
Givan faced his daughter Anna, who gave a dissatisfying look.
>>Look! Honey, you know how much your mother and I love you. I know it was not the right thing to do. You are growing up and must take responsibility for your own life. But for your mother and I, you are still our little daughter. We know how important this interview is for you, so we always try to help in our way<<
Tears rolled down Anna’s face after listening to her father. Swiftly, she embraced her father enthusiastically.
>>Pa! Thank you!<<
