"Anne come on your going to be late for
work!" Screamed Jill.
I was exhausted, only 2 hours of sleep and then working 8 hours
today again but then going back to work later this night. I
dont know how much longer my body could take this.
"O--okayy." I rolled onto my back. Jill opened my
blinds and walked out.
I was thankful she was letting me sleep on her pull out couch
until I could afford to live on my own.
Getting a job at 14 delivering papers to houses then working at
fast food and now working two jobs being a waitress still cant
pay all the bills.
I hopped in the shower, slipped into my clothes I wore yesterday,
couldnt afford or have any time to wash it, so i had to deal with
it. I had to make alot of sacrifices in my life.
While 19 year old girls got drunk every weekened, attended
college, and drool over guys, i was doing none of that, my day
consumed of pouring people coffee, and taking orders.
"Anne your five minutes late!" Gus called out to me as
i nearly ran into the glass door.
"I know I know im sorry, no excuses."
"Just because your one of my hardest workers ill let this
slide." He smiled at me, there was one thing i loved about
Gus, is that hes's from Greace so you could barley understand
what he said most of the time, but the sweetest man you could
ever meet.
There was one thing my mom and dad taught me before they died, to
always try your best in something because it'll always pay
off. I follwed that moto, i put 110 percent in my work no matter
what.
I put my purse and coat in the back room and began my daily
routine.
Main Street had a little stage that anyone could go up there and
sing, dance, ect, just show your talent. Everytime I worked the
usuals that came in would cheer for me to go sing for them., but
ofcourse i never would i have the worst stage fright.
"Hey Anne how are you today." Peter was one of the
usuals that came to the diner.
"Great, how are you Peter?"
"Oh you know this guy is doin better now that your
here." He winked at me, and held his cup up for me to pour
his coffee.
Work flew by thank god.
"Bye Gus see you tommorow!" I waved and went out the
door.
I got about 67 dollars in tips so i wanted to go pick up cake mix
since jills birthday was tommorow.
I walk into the grocery store and head down the isle that held
the cake mix.
I grabbed strawberry with confettii frosting.
"Is this it for you?" A tall bulky brown headed boy
asked.
"Yup."
I pulled out a ten expecting it to not reach past that.
"Alright 9.22" he starred at me carefully as i handed
him the money. He pushed in hte buttons gave me my change and
receipt. "Im sorry but did you go to Hillside High
School?"
I grabbed my bag before i said anything, "Yeah?"
Sounding confused, i didnt recongize him at all.
"Sorry to sound like a creep but I recongize you from
the hallways, your the one that dropped out right and your
parents died from the fir---" Before I heard those words I
interupted him.
"Alright no, i got to go." I thought it was a little
rude to be so upfront about it.
People wonder why im so shut out all the time. I dont ever talk
about my parents thats a closed subject.
I was walking out and felt the bracelt Kit made me when i last
visited her.
I sighed and walked back to the apartment.
