Waking up I wince from pain as I turned to switch off the annoying alarm ,that had pledged to make my life a living hell from this day onwards . I trudged towards the bathroom and decided to take a shower since my greasy hair looked really unimpressive and that was the last thing I wanted today .
The first day of our final high-school year , I had to make an impression ! I continuously repeated my mantra and stepped into the hot shower . The warm , runny water cascaded down my brown locks and through my back until it reached my wrist .... " OUCH !" I groaned in pain as I saw the red mark still as sore as it felt yesterday . I reached for my vanilla scented shampoo as I muttered , " that f***er !"
FLASHBACK
"Honey , wake up you're late for work , it's almost 2 o' clock . You need to fix your routine , love! Your high-school starts tomorrow . remember ?" my mom wailed . I sighed with annoyance , my mom needs to cut me some slack .
Nevertheless , I got up and freshened . My hair looked naturally wavy so I let them loose and applied minimal makeup which consisted of my blush , mascara and gloss. I nodded with satisfaction as I saw my reflection in the mirror and jumped when I saw the clock , " shoot , late as always " .
Andre's Café was the ideal place for a job , a perfect , warm coffee house with an ambiance that makes you feel like home . I've been working here for almost a year and a half ,now. Little did I know that John's sulking face , Lottie's evergreen smile and Karl's incomparable humor had actually become a part of my life ! "Hello , miss sunshine , my god ! you look lovely " I looked ahead only to witness Karl stand and gleam with appreciation . " why , thank-you gentleman ! " I tried to hide the blush that started creeping on my face *if only I could do that *
I went towards the kitchen to wear my apron and started doing the regular ; serving coffee . " A cappuccino for table 5 " I heard someone say , not bothering who it was, I replied ," On it ". I briskly walked towards my destination when someone tall and not to mention , very muscular , turned around swiftly causing the steaming coffee to fall on my hand .
I screamed in agony and saw those two deep blue orbs watching me weirdly , his gaze penetrated through my soul and before I could let go of my dumbfoundedness and get back to the ignorant person, I heard something that made me see red ! " Watch , where you're going , woman !"
I've been irritated countless times but I can bet my life on the fact, that I've never felt so provoked in my entire ,eighteen years of existence .
"Excuse me ? No offense but I am totally resisting the urge to slap you because unfortunately that would be animal abuse ," I partially screamed at the anonymous, insensitive person and ran to apply some ointment because the pain had started to become unbearable .
<<<<<<<<< END OF FLASHBACK
I towel dried my hair and walked towards my closet to get my hands on the light grey summer dress that Blake picked for me . He sure as hell ,can be a very flattering boyfriend . I decided to pair the dress with my favourite , black strappy flats and applied the least amount of makeup since I did not want to look too formal . I walked downstairs and saw my mom and my three year old brother, Mason munching on the pancakes . My stomach growled in appreciation and I ran as fast as I could , to get the last piece before Mason could gobble on it too. " I would never eat your pancake , Amy' Mason made the cutest puppy face as he said the words that melted my poor little heart right away.
Mason James, the cutest yet the most annoying brother , mankind can witness but who am I kidding , brothers are that way ! Mason was slightly different , he never got a chance to get to know daddy .It pained my heart to see him being deprived of a fatherly figure , something every boy needs in his initial growth years. My father died due to liver cancer and ever since that day Mom and I have never been the same . Everything was still as fresh as it was two years ago and somehow daddy took an irreplaceable piece of my heart with him !
"Honey,are you ok ?" I had no idea, zoning out could have been so intense , my eyes had become teary as I had harked back to the days spent with my father .
" I'm fine , I'm not hungry ,mom. Mason can eat the pancake " I stood up quickly wiping the tear that managed to escape . My mom passed me a sad smile , she was well aware of the connection I had with dad , she played a vital role in helping me overcome the unimaginable grief , I remember the nights I cried on her lap and she saying that he was in a much better place and at peace .
I know , that , daddy was watching me from somewhere and was happy that his daughter made it to the final year of high-school , alive . I giggled at the thought and got up as I kissed Mason on the cheek , " take care ,buddy."
I was fifteen minutes early to the bus stop, hence I decided to go to Andre's and get myself a cup of coffee . "How's the hand ?" I turned around and saw Lottie with a concerned look plastered on her face. I loved how she cared for everyone and went out of the way to help them .
" It's much better now , still hurts but I'm sure I can manage."
"Get well soon ."
"Thanks , also, can you tell Karl that I would take the evening shift because my vacations have ended and I can't come in the after-noon ."
Lottie passed the brightest smile she could and winked right away , "Roger that , Amanda "
My bus was at the stop , by the time I got there . Quickly I hopped onto the bus , trying not to drop the coffee on my hand , since the experience was anything but nice . I looked up and stopped dead in my tracks , when I saw something , I never imagined I would .
I'mso nervous , lol , let me know if you guys liked it ? VOTE VOTE VOTE !
