"Do you think I can do this?" She asked.
"I'm also scared as this is too risky, " Abigail replied.
"No,I promised to do anything and everything for Dan"
"I can do this!" She said to herself.
"Yes you can do this!" Abigail said to encourage her best friend.
Alexandra and Abigail walked into Miller's Investment and co.
One of the biggest and tallest buildings in their city is owned by Mr Miller. The most powerful and influential billionaire in Miami.
Their eyes were filled with excitement as they searched through the room.They were sure they've never seen or entered such large and well decorated rooms. They were too stunned and almost forgot the real reason why they're at the Millers company.
Alex pulled herself together, remembering the real reason why she was at Miller's company. Abigail adjusted as she saw the change in the eyes of her best friend, the eyes that were filled with surprise and excitement a few minutes ago were now filled with sadness and hopelessness.
"I'm proud of you and Dan is lucky to have you as his sister, " Abigail said to Alex.
Alex forced a smile and replied "Thank you".
************************************
"Good morning sir" Alex greeted nervously but to her surprise, there was no response.
Alex stood in front of a large table in Andrew's office. She was screaming for help internally hoping her best friend could hear her and come to her rescue.
While standing,she took her time to study the man who didn't respond to her greeting and was already scared she made the wrong decisions. She shouldn't have been here. She should have found other alternatives to help save Dan.
"Sit down," Andrew finally said in a deep,sharp tone.
Alex, who was carried away in her own thoughts, immediately sat down. She was nervous and sweating that Andrew could instantly notice her shaky hands.
One part of Alex wanted the job because the pay is good and will be able to help save her brother. But the other part of Alex was hoping he would reject her because she wasn't sure she was ready,not even with such a cold man.
"I'm sure you know why you're here"
"Yes sir"
"Are you sure you're ready?"
Alex looked up to his hard glare nervously, she wasn't sure she was ready to get herself involved in the type of life she was about living but that was the only opportunity to save her brother, her only family.
Andrew wasn't giving her a chance to think properly with those hard glare he threw her away,his face not leaving hers.
She took a deep breath and answered.
"Yes sir,I am ready".
"You don't look like someone who's ready, so I'm going to ask again,are you ready?" He asked, firmly.
