Amora's Point Of View"Hi! Why? I told him what I wanted! College girls need money more than you think!" I sang and danced as I stirred the eggs I was frying.I turned the fried scrambled eggs into a bowl and covered it. I proceeded to take another egg, two, before doing the necessary ritual and routines my eggs pass through in my hands."Gia!" I yelled from the kitchen."What? Don't you remember how to fry a egg again?" She yelled back from her room. She is far off, I'm safe."A egg?" I yelled."What?" She responded."What's a egg? Is that what you were taught in school, English class?" I asked, yelling loud enough so she could hear me clearly."I don't know, not like that will make the egg stop me from eating it," she responded.I added some bell pepper, crayfish, onions and some greens to my unscrambled eggs."This is perfect!" I uttered excitedly to myself. After transferring my egg to a plate, I added my bacon and hot dog to the pan."Aren't you done?" A voice startled me, I almo
Deven's Point Of View"Man! It's been thirty minutes plus since you promised to come check up on me and yet you aren't still here!" I yelled into the phone."Mr Deven, can you please calm down?" He said to me in a very calming tone which was getting on my nerves."I can't calm down! I can't! I am about to die here and you have the gut to tell me to calm down, I can't! Get yourself here, now!" I ordered but I know my ordering doesn't work on him."A dying man? You just have to calm down, I have got tons of patients waiting patiently for their turns to be attended to. I will be there when everything is under control here," he explained to me."Under control? When will that be? I am not under control here! And when you get here, there is a big possibility that nothing will be controllable, so get here now!" I yelled aggressively at him."Can you stop yelling? The phone is on speaker, you are scaring my patients!" He warned me."I won't stop until you get here!" I yelled again."Then I gu
Amora's Point Of View"So was that a new gig?" Gianna asked me from where she sat."No! It was a gig review of what I did," I responded."And what does it say?" She asked with concern."Yesterday's gig, it wasn't too bright, just the usual 'Miss Amora Channing is good as…', it is always good, nothing more," I said to her."It will be fine," she tried consoling me."Aren't you going to the factory together?" I asked her."I don't know!" She answered with confusion."Why won't you know? Don't you want to make money?" I asked her."Of course I do but do you only go to work because you want to make money?" She asked me."What the heck? Of course! Why else will I be doing that? No! Because I get to make money from it, that is my only reason. I am not someone who likes working hard for an invalid reason," I said to her. What! Go to work because I don't need money?"If money is not involved, I am not interested," I said to my friend's face."Why will you say something like that?" She asked m
Amora’s Point Of ViewI startled as the screeching sound of the tires tore through the air, shattering my heart as I thought the worst had happened. I felt my heart jump into my throat as I heard Gianna’s scream simultaneously.The time seemed to slow down to a crawl at the moment like in the movies as I tried lunging forward to grab her in a way to yank her out of the car’s way. I was too late but fortunately the car skidded to a sharp halt mere inches away from her but the shock caused my friend to hit the ground.I was so pissed and this is just a delay mechanism I can't afford. I was breathing heavily and didn't notice at first, I slowly knelt beside Gia who was on the floor with her skirt tangled around her legs which caused it to tear. She was also clutching her knee which had a big scrape and it had begun to bleed.“How did this happen?” I wondered to myself as anger surged within me for the driver of the SUV that almost hit us.I also felt the shock as the effect of the near m
Amora's Point of view“What do you mean by that? She can't go to work like this!” I pointed out to him sharply.“And she needs a new skirt! Can't you see the one she is wearing is torn and unacceptable?” I questioned him as his nonchalantly attitude was starting to irk me.“I am fine!” I heard from Gianna as I turned to look at her sharply, she shook her head weakly upon seeing my face.“What do you mean by that? When did you become a weak coward?” I asked her as her face became flushed with embarrassment.“I will be fine!” She insisted, ignoring my question but from her trembling hands, I knew she was not fine! She was still in shock and even if the car hadn't hit her, she still needed to be checked.“She said she is fine, I don't understand why you will push this further! She wasn't hit by the car and neither were you! But I honestly wish the car had hit you by the mouth! If you don't have anything sensible to say then I am off!” He said gutturally.“I can't believe you!” I uttered
Amora's POVI couldn't shake off the unsettling feeling that had enveloped me since my encounter with Mr Silver haired, I sat in silence as Ian drove us to the hospital. I was frustrated and angry by his cold demeanor and sharp words that kept replaying itself in my head. How can such a fine man lack manners on how to talk to a lady or even show an iota of care after causing her just a traumatic experience?My mind was reeling with the senselessness of that guy's behavior even though I might appear to be calm on the outside.“Is everything okay at the moment?” I heard a voice that brought me out of my thoughts.I looked up to see Ian and Gianna staring at me, concern was etched across their faces, I must have startled them. “It's okay, I just remembered something which felt weird!” I explained to them as Ian sat down properly, looking ahead but Gianna continued to look at me like she knew I was lying.“You can just tell me what it is!” She whispered to me. “What is on your mind, Amy?”
Amora povIan's swift response took me by surprise. He had a blend of astonishment and worry in his widened eyes while he mulled over Gianna's inquiry. I gave Gianna a brief look, indicating my confusion was no different than hers as she appeared equally bewildered with the situation at hand.I inquired of Vons with an air of nonchalance, despite my intense curiosity, "Why do you appear so stunned?"After a brief pause, Ian's fingers began tapping in rhythm on the steering wheel before he spoke up. "It's not that I doubt you Amora, but Vons isn't really the safest place for someone like you."Confused, my eyebrows furrowed. "What do you mean by someone like me?"With his eyes fixed on the road in front of him, Ian let out a deep sigh. "Vons is known for being a hub of sketchy dealings; it's not exactly where you'd think to find any legitimate work opportunities. Mind telling me how you landed that job?"Pondering on how much to disclose, I nibbled my lip and remarked that the gig was
Deven suggested, "It's getting late and it would be wise to get in. It's not safe to hang around here."Amora expressed gratitude and acknowledged the ride.Deven said, "Sure thing. What is your address?"Amora stated that the hospital was just a couple of blocks away and not too distant.Deven asked, "I understand. Could you tell me what led you to accept a position at Vons?""I required the money as jobs that can cover my expenses are hard to find, particularly those that provide a decent payout," said Amora.Deven advised, "I understand your point. However, working at Vons isn't entirely secure. You need to be cautious.""I am capable of taking care of myself. Moreover, you do not possess enough knowledge about me to make such an assessment."Deven responded, "I understand and accept your point of view. However, I am confident in my familiarity with that location surpassing yours. It's not solely about being prepared to defend oneself; it also involves recognizing when to steer cle
