Ava "s POV
I walked into the room, trying to keep my breathing under control.
All of the girls who had entered had left. "This is a legitimate interview," I told myself as I sat in the chair across from the older lady who was seated in a large chair behind a desk.
She was tall and thin, and she carried herself very high. She was dressed conservatively in a pencil skirt and a suit jacket. She had lovely light brown hair that was tucked behind her head and secured with a diamond clip.
She had a few wrinkles around her eyes, her eyes were a beautiful blue, and she looked very familiar, but I couldn't place where or when I had come into contact with such a woman.
"Ava," she said, softly smiling.
"Yes, Ms. Jayson," I said, returning the smile and handing her my resume from my purse, which contained all of my information.
"Oh, I like you; you can call me Veronica" she said as she took the file from me and began reading it.
I was already feeling good about this interview because she said she liked me and said I could call her by her first name.
"Ava I'll be honest with you: you were the only woman who showed up with a resume and a proper attire "She said this while looking at me up and down.
I was dressed in black slacks with a white blouse.
"I know your resume says you have no experience with children, but I believe this is a good opportunity for you to gain some," she said as she closed my file and looked up at me.
"And I'm sure you're nervous because you know who you are, but I swear to you, no harm will come to you," she said as she stood up to shake my hand.
