The morning of the interview, Noah was already humming before his feet even hit the floor. He stretched, his muscles singing with a pleasant warmth. He chose his favorite power suit, the one that always made him feel ready to conquer the world. He felt like he could outsmart the world.

He made a triple espresso, savoring the rich aroma. He needed that boost of focus and concentration. He knew his friend, Ethan, was also in the running. They had been close since childhood.

He rehearsed his answers in the mirror, his voice ringing with confidence. This was a challenge he was built for. He would crush it.
