You groaned as you quickly moved through your apartment to do all the little things you needed to do before starting the day, but you were still groggy from the terrible sleep you had last night. Today was your first day at the new job you got; a simple marketing job at a decently sized company, not too popular but not too small, and it was perfect. You threw on your best outfit, including the blue vest they shipped to you to show you are apart of the company now. You grabbed your keys and quickly left your apartment building, shoving them into your pocket.
After rushing past all the other employees in Castelia City, you finally made it to your workplace. With a shaky breath, you stepped inside. It looked like all of the other office buildings in Castelia; clean and with the scent of a hospital. But it didn't look great...matter of fact, it was like they couldn't really afford much great furniture, but hey they had posters on the wall with motivational text on it! Like; "more employees means better pay!" and "cooperation makes money!"...ok they were probably low on money...
After getting your ID from the front office lady, you headed to the elevator. But it- eugh..it was rather old—
"May I help you?" You flinched as a voice came from inside the elevator. Looking in, you noticed a beautiful young man with blonde hair. He wore an outfit that didn't look like your usual elevator operator: white button up shirt, dark blue vest with gold buttons, white gloves, black pants and heels, and he had the usual hat on his head, except it had a weird golden symbol...it wasn't the company logo..
After a moment of staring, he clears his throat and you flinch. After a bit, you respond with a "yes".
"Good, welcome aboard, dear." He gently took your hand and kissed it. That caused you to pause and look back at the front desk lady, but she didn't seem to care or notice. Of course, you knew a kiss on the hand was politeness and whatnot, but the way he did it put you off. It wasn't really a light peck, but more of an actual kiss.
Either way, you were too stressed to care, so you boarded anyways. After telling him you needed to go to the 4th floor, he nodded and closed the doors, moving the elevator up. There was something..off, about him. You felt like he wasn't a nice person, but you were a little too shy and stressed to try and call him out. Though, you did catch a glimpse at his name tag; 'Volo'.
