The Day I Kissed An Older Man

The person seated in the president's office was none other than Sherman.
He looked perfectly at ease, casually flipping through a folder in his hands as if he was engrossed in it. He glanced up at her with a faint smile. "What's the matter? Why do you look so surprised to see me here?"
"Um... No. It's just a bit unexpected. I didn't think you'd be the president of Parr Group," Melody admitted with an awkward smile.
Despite the company name being Parr Group, she had not imagined that the prestigious Parr Group belonged to Sherman Parr.
Well, it seemed like she underestimated Sherman's background back then.
"Relax, we're old friends. Just take a seat. No need to be so tense." Sherman gestured to the chair in front of him in a rather refined manner. He continued to skim through the documents in his hand. Melody nodded and finally settled into the chair. "Sherman, why did you send someone to find me?"
"Weren't you here today for an interview at our company? Why not let me handle the interview personally?" Sherman smiled as he spoke. After finishing reading the documents, he set them aside and smiled warmly at her.
Melody glanced at the folder Sherman had just set aside. It was not fully closed, and the content was laid bare before her eyes.
'Wait, isn't that my resume? So Sherman has been looking at it from the beginning! Oh, man. This is so embarrassing!' thought Melody.
For some reason, a pang of guilt hit Melody. She had embellished her resume by sprinkling in a fair share of self-promotion to make herself stand out.
Melody did not see it as a big deal if it was viewed by a stranger. After all, most candidates would lie on their resume. However, it was embarrassing that Sherman was actively reading whatever she typed there. She wanted nothing more than to bury a hole and hide in it.
"Melody, your academic background is quite impressive. With a bit of work experience, you'd be a sought-after candidate," said Sherman, his words tinged with regret for Melody's untapped potential. Melody excelled in her studies and secured a spot at a prestigious university. Unfortunately, her post-graduation years without a job turned into a glaring weakness on her resume that had significantly hampered her job search.
"Yeah, I know lacking work experience is my weak point. It's just frustrating that without that initial chance, I'll be stuck in this loop forever!" said Melody with a helpless sigh.
Such was the contemporary job market; slightly better companies wanted younger employees but also demanded more experience. It was just a catch-22 situation.
Sherman nodded. Indeed, there were hardly any companies that would be willing to give a chance to an inexperienced newbie.
However, that did not mean Sherman was not willing to take that leap.
