Being With You

Tippa felt all she had left was her vibrant personality to get her through this trial, but it wasn’t easy. Being fired from a job was difficult; she had never been fired before, and it was unjust. She had very little to be cheerful about. Her funds were meager, and her job hunt continued longer than she hoped. But whenever Tippa spoke to her family, she needed to sound as normal as possible when her auntie Lacey would call to see how things were going.

“Sweetie, this is Aunt Lacey. I have been worried about you working for those people at Kincaid Medical. How is work going? Has everything been okay?”

“It’s going well. Don’t worry, Aunt Lacy, I'm a big girl, and I can care for myself.” Tippa lied and silently asked for forgiveness.

“I’m happy to hear that. You know Tippa. I want to advise you not to stop looking for work elsewhere. I want you to work somewhere you can be happy doing something more aligned with your goals and dreams. Do you understand?”

“Yes, I’ll keep that in mind, Aun

    Weeks went by, and before long, it came down to days. Tippa had no idea what she was going to do. She slowly was losing herself in sadness, the type of sorrow she felt when she lost her parents. Tippa fought hard to recover from what felt like an unending sadness. But she held onto her father's words, who told her she was like a bright, shining star that could never be dimmed. “I can’t give up; something will come true, I know it will…” Tippa stated, wiping her tears away even though the end of the month was fast approaching.Several days later, a breakthrough finally came. It occurred one week before the end of the month when her rent and all bills were due. Tippa got a job offer! Not only that, but it pays once a week!

    When Ross Kincaid looks up at the waitress to give her his order, Tippa was stunned! Her innocent, unguarded eyelids blinked a mile a minute.“Tippa! What on earth are you doing here?” Ross states, coolly surprised. It took everything in her power to hold it together. Her mind immediately began to spin with mixed feelings. She had worked so hard to put this exquisite-looking guy out of her mind, and now he’s here. Tippa looked discreetly around the restaurant to see if any eyes were on them. She took a deep breath. Thinking, “stay focused on your job.” When Tippa found her voice, she repeated, knowing professionalism should come first. But on the edge of her lips was the question of the night. What is he doing here? Is this a Kincaid event? Is someone in the Kincaid family spying on me again?" She asked herself, trying to contain her nerves. No, I’m going to focus on doing my job.” So, Tippa repeats.“May I take your order?" Ross smiled, “Okay”. He said softly, realizing she wasn't

    Tippa was floored as she stood there, lost for words and specific actions. She was flattered, yes. But at the same time, all Tippa could think, "This man must be used to airheaded women who fall at his feet. She knew for sure he came from wealth by the bottle of wine and the meal for two he had just ordered. It was nearly $200.00."Sir, thank you for the offer, but I must pass. So, I will not be bringing my manager to speak to you about your dinner offer. Now, would you like to order that steak or something else?" She said, smiling.Ross sighed, closing his eyelids slowly, allowing the dark, almost unnaturally long lashes to sweep under his eyes as his fingers gently rubbed his lids. Then, he gradually opened his dark, slanted eyes, giving her a smoldering look, which she was sure was his first move in operation to change her mind. She fell for his charming ways once, but not this time.While observing him, Tippa's hands eased into her apron's front pockets as she tried to be patient a
