"Hi I'm Starlight. I am 20 years old. My parents are Madhavi and Pinaki. They are Indians....but I was born and brought up here. They are...**should I really tell them coz this is a personal security and privacy......maybe not** "

"Ummm miss....would you please continue...."

"Yah right, **what are you doing....this is an interview....not an afternoon of teatime**{smiles} so my parents work as laborers in a toothpaste factory. I have a 10 year old brother and an adopted sister **this is true**."

" So why do you want this job again?"

" Oh, **stick with the lie** I just wanna help my parents a little so as to ease their burden."

" But you know the kind of qualifications and hard work needed for this job right?"

" And may I see your qualifications Miss......?"

** Oh gosh! He'll know who I am if I give my real surname...**

" Hello? Earth to Miss..."

" Oh! Right! Miss....Laure."

He takes the file and goes through it. Then he says," Impressive Miss. Never thought a poor girl could have such good qualifications, no offense."

" U huh. None taken trust me!"

**Only if you knew...you wouldn't have the guts to say this...**

" Ok fine. We will notify you about the further results. You may leave now."

" Yes sure, thank you for your time."

She gets up, turns to the door, leaves. A moment later the door opens again.

" I didn't quite catch your name Mister......?"

" Mister Laughlin."

" Ok Mister Laughlin, thanks."

She leaves and starts walking down the corridor and suddenly bumps into someone.....
