The Girl in the Blue Dress
Chapter
2
"The usual?" the
handsome cafe boy asked with a smile.
"Yes, please" I stated quickly before
trying to get to an empty table. My hands were full of
folders, bags, and my cell phone, which was buzzing. I lost
grip of it along with a few of the folders. Papers flooded
everywhere. "Da/mmit" I said, getting to the floor
to pick them up.
"Jeez Ally" The cafe boy, who always
seemed to be working there, said. He helped me to pick up all
of my papers and handed me my coffee.
"Thank you, Jake" I said, giving him
a quick squeese.
"Tough day?" He asked. He took
a seat next to me.
"Looks like you have a customer" I
said, motioning to the counter.
"It's ok, Matt's got it, I'm
on break" He said. He watched me carefully placing the
papers in the correct folders and into my bag. "As I
said, tough day?" He asked for a second time.
"Oh sorry, no I'm alright" I
looked up to him and gave him a quick smile before arraging my
folders again.
"Are you sure?" He asked, making eye
contact with me.
"Yes! Now go enjoy your break!" I
commanded. He slowly got up and walked into the back room. I
finally fixed myself and took a sip of my drink. Cheap coffee
just could not beat their homemade coffee. It had been two
years since I had my first with my dad. It was just a habit I
couldn't break. I always visited between meetings for
work, if not, everyday. My phone buzzed again and I gathered
my things, "bye, Jake", I waved to him. He smiled
and waved back.

"Hey Grandma..."
She kissed my cheeck before I could even get my jacket
off.
"Ally, you're so goregeous, I
don't know why your mom wouldn't let you become a
model"
"Awh, thanks Grammy" I said, giving
her a hug. We walked into the dining room where everyone
was already helping themselves to food.
"Sorry I'm late guys, there was a
lot of traffic" I said, pulling out my chair.
"At least you beat your brother" my
mom said before she looked over at his setting that already had
food on it. My parents still treated him like a little
kid.
"I'm here!" he said. He walked
into the room with a girl. My confused look met my
grandfather's smirk. "Ally, this is
Megan."
"Hi" I said, she replied the same
way. I quickly learned she was quiet, just like how I was
in highschool. We washed the dishes and sat in the living
room until my grandparents left. Megan left shortly, after a kiss
from my brother.

"Beep, beep,
beep" my alarm sounded on my nighstand. I rolled out of bed
and into my bathroom.
"Hurry up Ally, you don't want to be
late," my dad remindes me as he passes through the hallway.
I would never be late, I loved my job and graduating highschool
early helped me to persue it even sooner than I expected.
Honestly, I wasn't 100 percent sure if I wanted to do
this for a living, but it was the first big thing I was offered.
It's very similar everyday, and I always wonder of what
else I could be doing, but I couldn't back down now.
People were counting on me.
"Ally..."
"Almost ready!"
