"And that's it. What do you think Miss Smith?" Mr. Wang asked me with hopeful eyes. My dead eyes stared at his hopeful eyes for about 5 seconds before replying. "Even though you failed the last time." I said as I stood up from my leather chair. "But this time, I think you did better enough to get the deal. Congrats..." I said as I handed him a file.
"Miss Ava you may email him all the details by tomorrow." I said without looking at her. "Yes ma'am." she replied. "So-" Before I could say something my phone rang. "Excuse me..." I said as I went outside. "Hello?" I started. "Sophia...you said you'll come back in 2 hours? it's been 3 hours young lady where are you?!"

I yelled but again got no response, in annoyance I took mom's phone and attended it. "Lis-" Someone cut me off. "Hey honey..."
