The Internship and the Interview

Her phone beeped. Anella looked down a number she did not recognize flashed across the screen.  She answered as professionally as she could; she was expecting this call all day. "Hello Anella, this is Kristy -- I'm calling about your internship at Hennessy Salon."
Anella's heart skipped. Though it was almost guaranteed she would get this internship from school, she was still nervous. Swallowing her nerves she tried to speak. "Heeey!" Opps. Anella smacked her forehead thinking to herself. This isn't your best friend or your cat, why would you greet her like that?!  Eitherway the damage was done, she shut up and waited for a response. "Hello, I would like to set up an interview with you, when are you available?" Okay Anella, here's your chance for redemption.

"I can make myself available, whenever works for you."
She slapped herself again, unimpressed with her own lack of assertion.
"Okay Anella, I'll see you at 3." Kristy hung up the phone.

Anella felt the cold sweats coming; she had not expected an interview, was this the procedure, had she messed up the call? God she hated her phone voice.
