"Hey girl, you need a special invitation to get up or you want me to get up there and beat your ass into it." Said Ary my landlady or let's just say my maternal figure "Do you really need to shout that much Ary? I'm awake already okay?" I said "You better be cause you know there's no time to waste here girl, so get up already" "Yeah yeah " I mumbled still on my bed "And yeah listen there's some sandwich here in the kitchen make sure you take some bite before you leave. And yeah, you still have the house key with you right?" " No I don't, you already collected it from me Ary when you lost yours like three days ago woman" I said grumbling "Oh yeah true, I'm leaving the one with me on the table right now, you can just put it under the doormat when you're leaving in case I come home early, which I doubt because I think I might be working a double shift today. Ok that's it, I'm out, make sure you lock the door, close the windows and the sandwiches must be gone before I come back...no

With soap all over my body, I tied my towel and went to the balcony to get myself some water to finish up. As soon as I was done, I picked up a pair of baggy jeans and a sweater to wear, went to the kitchen to quickly finish up the sandwiches and cleaned up the messes I made in the kitchen cause if Ary should come back to see all this, I am so dead. I hopped out of the house, closed the door and put the keys under the doormat as instructed, and made sure I didn't forget anything in the house. As I walked through the main door I asked myself "Did I forget anything?" "Naa, I don't think so" "Way to go girl" I said to myself as I hit the road hoping to see a brighter day ahead. As I left the house I started walking through the neighborhood hoping to see a bus that's gonna stop and I can manage to sneak in cause I ain't got no money right now and even if I do I'd rather save up than pay for any T fare and right now five different buses have passed and none stopped and I'm freezing al

By the time I reached Ember, the restaurant where I worked, two blocks away, I could feel a silver of sweat brushing my upper back. I dived into the delicious smell of burnt coffee and sweet pastries as I went through the back at the kitchen where I worked as a waiter. Hey Kira, I greeted with a smile as I entered the Kitchen. "Really Dia, you late again, the boss is fu****g mad and he wants you in his office right now, and trust me he isn't smiling, and when I said right now I mean RIGHT NOW" Oh great! I mumbled as I found my way to his office. And the one thing about my boss, he never smiles,goshh i can't believe how a human can do without even wearing the faintest of smile on his face, and whenever he's angry it's like an hot larva ready to blow out some Volcano, and the last time I saw him lashed out on Kira, trust me, it wasn't good he almost tore her into pieces but I guess it's my turn today. What a way to start the day. "Here goes nothing " I murmured to myself as I knocke

The day could not just get any longer and it seems like forever already cause I'm dying to get out of this horrible place as soon as I can. Finally the closing alarm rang as I attended to the last customer In Front of me and bursted out of the restaurant without looking back. I didn't even bother to say goodbye to Kira. I guess I will make up for that tomorrow morning. And as usual I started walking down the street back to my house. As I was going, all I could think of was what my boss said to me, and I just couldn't get them out of my head. I mean those words hurt like shit and if my mother hadn't died things wouldn't have been like this at least not this worse and a lil bit better. Then I decided to listen to some music in order to get those scenarios out of my head. I plugged in my earphone, scrolled down on my phone to find a song to listen to and I decided to play "A million dreams" by Hugh Jackman and i was singing along as i listened to the music " I close my eyes and I can se

So, I sort of come here often, sometimes I'd stop by at a restaurant or a coffee shop. I actually like the stuffs around here sooo, or probably because I'm used to this place I guess" "Oh that's nice" "Yeah tanks, but that's not really what brought me here actually" "Oh" "Ok so, I'm currently working on a recent project right now and which of course is supposed to be top secret" he said with a serious look "Don't worry my lips are sealed" I said using my hand to draw an invisible zip sign in my mouth in demonstration "Lol, well, so I'm here to make some research and hopefully it would be worth it, cause it is a huge risk I'm taking here" "That's the main reason why I'm here, to do some investigation and all, but I just hope my best is actually enough," Elliot said and sighed. "Oh don't beat yourself to it, at least you're trying your best, you're not just sitting there and watching all this happen.. It's cool" Diana said, chuckling. "Well if I don't lose count you've complime
