UNTIL I MET YOU : CHAPTER 11 – 20
I removed my SIM card and switched the phone off keeping it back on it’s case. I’m returning it back even if my conscience don’t want me to. I sat on the chair opposite my mirror and stare at my reflection. My mind drift to Gray Carter.
What does he really want ? I look back at the phone sitting on the headboard and avert my gaze back to my reflection.
I reach for my pills and swallow it dry without water. I look for my book and I can’t remember when last I read this. *How to fight against depression* I stare blankly at the book cover and toss it aside. I needed a good shower and a nice bath. After taking my bath , I slip on my pajamas and crash on my bed.
UNTIL I MET YOU : CHAPTER 11 – 20
.
The following day I left rather too early for work. Hazel visited Leslie and they’ve been talking non-stop about boys and make up.
” Good morning.” I greeted Brenda. She’s working only in morning hours and at noon Vickie and i takes over.
” Morning.” She reply with a smile.
” You’re early.”
” I was bored at home.” I reply sincerely. There’s not much to do around my boring life.
” Hope you’re good ?”
” Yeah.” I smile and walk to the change room to change over.
At noon , Vickie showed up. She looks a bit tired and frustrated.
” Are you okay ?” I ask her after she already changed her clothes.
” Yeah. My mom’s a bit sick and I won’t stay too long. You’ll have to take my shift.”
” Woah.”
” It’s fine. I explained to Sandy , she said she’s gonna bring a girl who’s gonna assist you.”
I sigh thinking about Gray. Of course he’s gonna walk through that door and take me out.
” Hope your mom’s feeling better ?”
” Yeah , thanks Ariel.” She smiles and walk to a customer to take his orders.
Today’s gonna be the worse day of my life. The day was shorter than i Imagined. It’s almost five and I look like a shattered widow. I’m tired as hell.
” You’re closing by 7: pm today.” Sanya said.
” I can’t.”
” Why ?”
“Because I really can’t close by 7. I already handled half of Vickie’s shift.”
“We’ll see about that then.” She scoff. Just then Gray walks in. His dark hair is a cute mess. He smiles at me as he lean on the counter.
” What are you doing here ?”
” It’s five.”
” I can’t, I’m working.” I reply looking at Sanya who’s watching.
” Your boss ?” He asks referring to Sanya who’s tensed.
” Manager.”
He walks to Sanya who smiled seductively.
” I need to lend Ariel for the day.”
” Uh.” She stutter disappointedly.
” I need to take her with me. It’s 5pm.” She sigh and nod defeatedly. For some reasons I’m happy. I look broken… like tired.
Gray returns and shot me that crazy smirk of his. I sigh and walk to the change room to shower quickly and change.
” So you’re his new toy ?” Sanya’s voice startles me.
” I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
” He just wants to fuck you , hope you know that right ?”
The sound of her foul language almost made me throw up.
” I’m just gonna leave. Thanks by the way.” I walk past her to meet Gray who I assume was outside.
I hurried outside and he was leaning against his black tinted sport’s car. Damn another huge machine that cost him a lot.
” Look I’m grateful you bailed me out , but i really don’t wanna eat out with you.” He ignored me and open the door for me.
” Get in.” I sigh defeatedly and shake my head sideways.
” Will you please enter ?” He ask in his British accent.
“Why did you switch your accent ?” I asks. He proceeds to touch me but I hurriedly entered his car.
He shuts the door and turn around to enter the driver’s seat. He’s a crazy driver. The speed was terrible than the first time and I can’t help but steal glances at his figure. What type of psychopath is this ?
” Did you just get out of rehab ?” I ask him.
” No princess.” He reply and smirk.
” Please don’t get me killed. The speed is too much.” I yell at him. I can’t imagine going to jail with Gray because of his murder attempt called driving.
