Chapter Three

It's been two weeks since Brianna's mum was laid to rest. Surprisingly her siblings had adapted really well to not having her around, although she was never really around when she was alive because of all her part time jobs but now that she was gone they have learnt to live without her.

It was tough but they had to survive. They had to stay strong for each other

Brianna received an email from Grayson inc., a multi billion dollar software company in LA. She had an  interview scheduled for later that day.

It was one of the companies Brianna sent her CV to two weeks ago and she was super excited that they considered her for the job.

She decided to wear a long black turtleneck top with a leopard skin skirt, a nude heel and one of her black bags. She decided to spice up the look with a black belt. She added little makeup and let down her hair.

She loved her look when she checked the mirror. It was simple and classy just how she liked it.

Brianna got to the company at exactly 8:45am. The interview was scheduled to start by 9am but Brianna had always loved to be at least 15 mins early. Brianna was really surprised with the number of applicants that were present.

The hall was big enough to fit in two to three hundred people and it was full to the brim. A lady named Elena announced that the people that had just arrived were to have their names registered whilst Brianna obliged.

A lady in her early thirties came on the podium to announce.

"Hello everyone I'm Angie, the human resources team leader of Grayson inc."

"There will be three stages of this interview. You all have passed the first stage for you to have been invited here for the second stage."

" You all will be directed to a hall where you will write the test and the qualified applicants will be called for the final stage of the interview which is the physical interview. Good luck." Angie announced before leaving the hall.

As Angie announced Brianna and other applicants were soon directed to a hall that had lots of systems to take the test.

There were different sections in the exam hall for different applicant's with each applicant's numbers attached to the system.

Brianna searched for where her job title in the hall was, which was HR officer and found her number before taking her sit.

They were given one hour to write the test. Most of the questions were about current affairs and about the company's products and services. Brianna made sure she answered the questions to the best of her ability before leaving the exam hall.

Brianna got a message around twelve noon that she had passed the second stage and she could proceed to the 14th floor for the final stage.

She was interviewed by a bunch of scary people but she nailed it. She was asked to start work the next Monday but they told her that  she wouldn't be working in the HR department.

They told her that the CEO needed someone as smart as she was as his secretary and they asked if it was fine by her. Seeing that she was badly in need of the job, she took it. She desperately needed a job to support herself and her siblings.

Brianna got home to meet the presence of a young man that she had never seen in her life. The young man looked kinda scary.

"Good evening Miss Peters, my name is Logan and am the own of Lamwills Entertainment" The young man said stretching his hand out for an handshake but Brianna ignored his hand.

"Okay how May I help you sir." Brianna asked with a frown.

"I've actually been looking for you for the past two weeks." Logan said scratching his each.

"Is there a problem? Why have you been looking for me? Am I safe?" Brianna asked wondering why Logan was looking for her

"It's nothing to worry about, I just need a little Favour from you." Logan said

"Okay, what's that?" Brianna replied wondering what favour the man could have possibly wanted.

"We noticed you danced at the bar two weeks ago and customers have been asking that we bring you back or else they'd stop coming and the truth is that the business is starting to get affected because most of our customers have stopped coming truly because you're not there. " Brianna was shocked because she had already forgotten about the fact that she danced at a bar that earned her some money two weeks ago.

"I'm not going back sir, I only danced that day because I felt like it, I didn't do it for money or anything. I did it for myself so please leave." Brianna said pointing at the door.

"Miss Peters, you'll get paid handsomely I promise you." Logan said with confidence

"Get out." Brianna yelled pointing at the door but Logan didn't move an inch which got Brianna furious.

"Get the hell out of here and don't you ever come back to my house do you understand. I have a job now and even if I don't I won't ever become a stripper or a prostitute in a bar so you get the hell out." Brianna shouted, dragging the man out of the house

"I never said you'd become a stripper Brianna, you will have your face covered like you did then so your identity would be protected and you will be protected from men, I'll employ bouncers to protect you if need be. All you just have to do is dance for an hour or two then get paid. You can even choose to do it three or four times in a week. It doesn't have to be everyday and it will only be at night so please think about it. I know you need the money too.  I was told you earned more than 3000 dollars in one night, now imagine you earning that almost every night for 30 days for a job that isn't even up to 3 hours. Think about it. Here's my card and incase you don't feel like calling me you know where to find me . Good night." Logan said dropping his card on the door step before leaving the house.
