Finally my brain let me hit the sack. Waking up in the morning my body is still a little bit tired. I check the time and it's still seven a.m. in the morning. The sun is already shining from the window eliminating whatever it could touch.Tossing the blankets aside, I go downstairs to the kitchen. Finding myself a few left over pizza slices. When I'm finished eating I go back upstairs again.I remove my clothes tossing them on the bed before seeing the shower. I let the water run over my body. The sound of the dribbling drops over my body so relaxing.Closing my eyes, for some reason my mind keeps playing the events of the night in the club. It's so uncomfortable and some what satisfying.It makes me want to touch myself but I refuse to. I refuse to pleasure myself to a man I don't even know. The more I refuse the more I want. I feel like he's still touching me. The movement of the water setting the mood.I feel like I'm punishing myself by resisting the urge.I finally give in, that
Since I know I can't hide the reason why I'm actually back here I told my parents everything that happened with Marc. They couldn't stop blaming themselves for being so blind letting me get married at such a young age.But I mostly blame myself. I was old enough to use my brain and should have known better.It's already dinner and I help my mother with setting up the table. My father still cooped up in his office, I don't even know what he's doing.Soon Kellie walks into the dining followed by her cousin."Kellie is that you? Where have you been? " my mother jumps to bear hug her." Mrs Walton , so nice to see you, " she responds to mama bear." Ingrid, how are you." She finally turns to the girl standing next to Kellie."This is Ingrid my cousin. The one I've been telling you about, " Kellie says and her cousin responds with a smile. I would say they look more like sisters than cousins. The curly blonde hair, smooth skin and defined jawline."Nice to meet you," I smile holding out m
Kellie finally opened up to me. Told me how much it hurt her to see Leroy with another girl. A girl she thought to be her best friend. How she felt so betrayed by both her husband and best friend. The hate she feels for both of them. I know how it feels because I've walked the same road a countless times.She finally decided she's going to divorce him and move on with her life. After all she doesn't even need him for anything. She can do without him. Kellie is the best lawyer I know, and believe me I don't know many of them.She admitted it's not that he loved him or maybe loved him a little. He was just driven by lust and badly wanted to get over her once was a crush, Marc.When we got back to the table Mercury is gone. Bless he, who is in the skies. Finally I can breathe."Avi?" My mother stands from the table and hugs me. "Are you okay? I'm really sorry about what happened. I know I shouldn't have-"" It's okay mom. I know you didn't mean any harm. Please let's continue with our di
"Wake up Avi and take a shower, you look disgusting. You must start preparing or you're going to be late," she says." What time is it? It's so hot in here, " I moan still drifting off my wet dream. It's even strange that it's a dream but I'm literally wet. It's like I didn't even shower last night." Six a.m in the morning. Since when has riverside ever been so hot? You look like a diaphoretic pig," she tells me. Well I don't think I look that bad. Though from the sweat some of my hair sticking up all over my face. The breeze even feels cold as it cools me down." Mom? It's so early in the morning, " I complained tossing away the blanket. There's no way I can go back to sleep now that I'm already up."Exactly. Get yourself moving young lady. You don't want to make a bad first impression," she says. "I'm going downstairs to make breakfast. You better start cleaning yourself up," she orders with leverage in her tone." Where did you start being the reprimanding mom? " I chuckle. She too
It's only now that I realize the 'new management' is Mecury. “You seem surprised?” He notes carefully studying my reaction. He is sitting on top of the desk, leaning back just enough to expose his frame. The angle exposing his polished chest as his shirt is only half buttoned up.“Of course, I'm surprised. What are you doing here?” I question with my eyebrow raised. Taking in the large spaced office with minimal ergonomic furniture. Looking without a smidgen of dust, you could see your own reaction from the marbled floor. With huge thick black curtains covering the the window. Though still with perfect lighting. “I thought your friend told about the new management,” he reminds me. Also, remembering I might have made a fool of myself in front of the man expected to hire me. But I have a feeling that's exactly what he wanted. “ She didn't tell me it was you. Because why would I have wasted my time?" I ask. Desperately needing this job, but I'm not giving him the satisfaction of it. Su
Indeed, Ingrid helps me out throughout the day. Teaching me everything I need to know. I haven't seen Mecury all day, as I was still waiting for him to say he's joking.Still, I don't believe he's genuine about. Ingrid tries to convince me, but I just don't trust Mecury.I take pictures of the contract and send them to Kellie. I just want her to check them for me.She promised to and that she'll get back to me.Later that day, Ingrid accompanies us home."You should join us for dinner," I suggest before stepping out of the car."I wish I can. But I have somewhere to rush to," she responds." That's fine. Maybe next time, " I say." I'll see you tomorrow. Have a nice night." I step out of the car into the driveway."Drive safe," I wave with a warm smile. She nods with a wave and I close the car. Soon she's driving down the street, leaving me alone in the driveway.I finally decide to go inside. Still, a little cooked up about today. I don't even know how I'll explain it to my parents.
I drove to my first day at work, not expecting more. Not expecting less. Thought still not sure to sign the contract yet. Or rather to trustAs I was expected start working. With Ingrid helping there and there. .And the restaurant really packed for some reason. But the day soon, casually starts and everything seems good. Well as good as place filled with a bunch of rich people can get."Busy day today I guess," I note as more people come in." Yeah. Since Mr. Guerrero took over the restaurant has been growing," Ingrid responds.I'm still speaking with Ingrid when couple comes to me. Her angry husband narrowing his eyes at me."I don't like your attitude and I'm going to tell your boss about it," he points out visibly angry. Well apparently we didn't get along well earlier. Apparently his cup of tea was too cold, then too hot. Typical rich people problems; I should know." Thank you for coming at our restaurant. Please enjoy the rest of your day," I fake a smile, but maybe he expects
Almost 6 Year's later: In the restaurant I’m still wrapping up ready to leave. It’s already past noon and I should be getting ready to pick my son from school. “Is your car already back?” Ingrid probes concerned. “Are you even okay to come to work?” She searches worries. To be honest I don’t blame her worry. I think I should be equally worried too. But worry is not an option now. Well my car got damaged because a sloshed asshole ran into me last night. But yes I guess clocking off late from work has consequences.“Yes I’m fine, I think. The car still needs a few days,” I report. She sighs looking at me earnestly. “You really need to relax, Avianna,” she says. Well I have no time to relax. Christmas is around the corner, and I owe presents. I can’t just relax.“Christmas is around the corner Ingrid,” I remind her. She rolls her eyes defeated. “But no, my car is not fixed,” I add. “How are you going to fetch Ed from school?” she worries. I sigh, as I think that I possibly
