My first encounter with a strange woman

I was neatly dressed for the occasion, as it was the first time I was about to meet her. I was waiting in her room. I couldn't hear no other sound except the buzzing of air conditioner. The calmness bewildered me. I prepared within myself the things I wanna tell her. "This is your last chance. Don't mess it up. impress her", I said to myself.

Finally I heard the approaching foot steps. The "click...click..." sound of the heels increased. Finally I saw her entering through the door. I took a deep breath and looked at her. She smiled. She smiled at me!!! "WOW" is the only word I can think about her now.

"Hello dear, good morning", words melted away from her. "G..Goo", my tongue stuck to my mouth. "Ow! idiot. what's this?", I thought, "Come on talk, what will she think of you?" "Good morning", finally my mouth gave way for words. "Why are you looking too nervous? Do you need some water?" she sang again.
 "How does she know am nervous? Is she a magician?" I wondered. But I said "No".

She looked poise when she sat opposite to me in the cushioned chair. Her table had two glass cases full of chocolates wrapped in different colors. "She too's a chocoholic like me", I thought. I didn't began the conversation as my mom advised, "Don't be mischievous with her. Let her start the conversation". So I waited.

"Ahem", she cleared the throat. Finally she broke the ice. She looked at me with artificial charm and asked,
















"So dear, what is the sixth letter of alphabet?".
My face brightened and I started to count my fingers, "A...B...C...D..."
That's how my LKG interview began and my first encounter with a strange woman.
