Lovely Day Yet Unpleasant

Chapter 1: Lovely Day Yet Unpleasant

Sniffing sounds had been testing my patience but I choose to shut my mouth. The sound of my wall clock was never been evident until now. And my dark office was never been sorrowful as now. In my dirty white wall with dark chocolate scent as the linings of edges and corners was never awkward but today. She perfectly ruined my classic classy mood. I would roll my eyes until it gets tired. I snapped my finger and a piece of tissue popped in my palm then hand it to her.

“I gave him all he wanted, car, money, even my body but he still choose that fat lady which looked like a walking ball.” She kept saying those and my eardrum was too allergic to dramas so I would go take a deep breath to calm myself, she took that tissue and placed the used one which I instantly threw away and my trash can moved to catch it. She was resting her head on the couch while facing me, I could see tears running down to my vintage couch. That slimy liquid in her nose that kept falling which she kept sniffing back was making me feel sick.

“Cause she’s pregnant, Hella. ” Her strands of hair were sticking on her forehead and face, all I could say was she looked wasted, awful wasted.

“With their baby, it was his. And I can’t give him a baby, I can never be the girl he wants and he needs.” And she cried harder that pissed me off.

“You can have a baby, you can give him a baby, idiot.” I handed her a tissue again and she threw the used one.

“I can but I will give birth to a witch, then he’ll find out I’m a witch and he’ll leave me,” said she.

“You can erase his memories anytime.” She was making this a big deal when it was simple for she was a witch. We never play fair.

“It’s too late! He already has a family.”

“We can kill the lady with her child and erase his memory about them. You’ll work your relationship from there.” I said but her eyes widen and pointed to me with the most dramatic expression.

“I am not as heartless as you are.” She could bark it on my face but I knew I am no saint. So I stood up and went to my desk where my piled paper works were.

“Not heartless as Vampires, they don’t have a heart and soul. Unlike them, I have no interest in innocents.” I flashed a fake smile and started my work.

“Yeah, maybe.” She agreed and continued crying.

“As if you can’t have another man,” I mumbled and from my side vision, I saw her staring at me.

“I only want him, I don’t want anyone else.” She cleared that to me so I nodded, in my entire life she would lie in my face that she want no other men but to end up dating another one after a day. She’d get over after an hour or two.

“Just tell me if you want me to kill his family. I can do that for you.” Despite the fact that she loves humans and adores their intelligence, she wasn’t clean. I saw her nod her head and lay on the couch again.

“Thank you, lemme just think about it. I’ll figure out what to do.”

“Sure.”

I heard her snap her finger and vanished leaving the mess she made in my office. Using my finger I pointed to the bottle of sanitizer and a pink light came from my finger once it hit the bottle it floated and sanitized the couch.

The cloth made its way to the couch and started wiping it. While I was signing all the papers, the couch was fixing itself. After it was clean and dry it moved to the corner where it was supposed to be. I heard a loud thud when it got there.

“Stop that tantrum,” I snapped my finger and everything fell into their places. I opened my laptop and checked my emails. I forgot about the time until I felt my back aching, when I checked my cellphone it was already three in the morning. A few hours from now I would meet the sunrise again. I leaned on my chair and realized how boring life was.

I looked at my ceiling and remembered how would a ceiling look like when sprinkles of blood would reach it back when I was part of an assassin organization. I pulled my drawer and saw my gun, the enchanted that I made and killed hundreds of drug dealers. Especially importers from different countries.

I remembered how I would watch the sunrise after a night of running away from bullets. How I easily earned money and buy all I want. All these luxury things around me were the product of it. This was what I wished and asked for. I stood up and opened my window, I stared at a branch of the huge tree in front and I jumped out of the window. The bunch tore itself from its trunk and catch me. I sat on it and brought me to the ground. I ran to my car and drove to the nearest base of that organization.

“Wake up!” Unfortunately, they were only sleeping when I got there. “Tim! Get up!” But he rolled over and cover his face with a blanket. I walked to my boss's office and I saw him sitting on his chair smoking.

“What brought you here, Z?” He asked after blowing the smoke out from his nose.

“I want a project.” He smiled and looked at me. He started chuckling while shaking his head.

“You miss killing? Get a life, lady.” His nearly bald head was undeniably smart. But he wasn’t brilliant enough to understand that pissing me off wasn’t a good idea.

“This is my life.” His smile dropped his pen and looked me in the eye.

“What else do you want, Z? You have already the wealth and luxury of life.”He said which made my ears twitch.

“Your gold teeth, and besides why don’t you ask that to yourself.” He knew that he would never like a further conversation with me.

“Whatever, I’ll notify you if there will be an available mission.” He swayed his hand to the door making me leave. So I was left with no choice but to leave and drove home. I stared at my huge house and saw its grace from every angle. I expected that these eye-catching views would relieve the heaviness in my chest but didn’t.

I got in and sleep in my room, I felt the warmth of the sun touches my skin which woke me up. I got up and made a coffee. I stayed on my terrace and felt the calming blow of the wind while the aroma of coffee filled my nostrils.

Despite the light atmosphere, I was feeling contrary. I felt heavy yet longing for something. I was feeling tired but I dragged myself to go on shopping. I let go of the mug and it made its way to the sink. I swayed my finger while staring at the faucet and water came rushing down to the mug. It was itself so I stood up.

“Dry yourself up,” I said and went to my room. A white dress came to me and I check it. I put it on and I pointed a huge hat which obligingly flew to my head. I put on light brown two-inch heels the same color as my hat. I looked at myself in the mirror and snapped my finger and colors added life to my face.

“I didn’t plan to look saint today but this would do.” I got into my car and my gate opened itself, as I drove off, green grass welcomed me by the road and green leaves on the trees were swaying gracefully. The world seemed so peaceful and but I couldn’t feel the same.

While I was driving I suddenly hit the break hard as I could when a toddler ran into the middle of the road. I woman scooped him up with a worried face, she kept saying sorry and bowing her head.

“Stupid kid.” I spat and started driving again. I parked near the river and I saw families having a picking in there. They were enjoying the weather. I girl with a messy bond came running to me with a smile, I looked down to where she was looking, a little girl was running away from her. She scooped her daughter up and they laughed together in front of me.

I slight touch of glee tickles my heart and a little smile crept on my lips.
