"Arianna Gold! What are you still doing inside? My customers are waiting, don't make me drag you out myself" my mother shouted at me from her room. I know she meant exactly what she said because she used my full name,which is something she does when she's angry. "Alright,I'm leaving" I shouted back knowing she heard me perfectly. I drag my handbag and run outside to stop a taxi. Knowing my younger brother Williams, he wouldn't wait for me to call him before joining me in the taxi. It has become our daily routine,we both take a taxi from home, I'll drop him off at school and go straight to my mother's shop to sell for her. Ever since I graduated from college that has become my life and it's starting to piss me off. In fact ever since I came back from school, everything anybody says to me in the morning always annoys me because I've had to wake up as early as 6am everyday except Sundays, do my morning hygiene and go to my mother's shop. So I'm always stressed every morning and oh boy ask me why I hate Mondays so much, it's because Monday is a reminder that Sunday is still far away, and I choose to ignore the fact that after Sunday comes Monday because it's the only day I've got to myself. So today being Monday is no different from any other Mondays. Now my brother and I are in the taxi on our way to his school. We aren't talking because he knows how annoying I can be in the morning. Then I heard the driver cursing, before I could ask what happened I saw it myself. The sport car that was in our front stopped all of a sudden making our driver to match the brake with force. The person driving the car didn't even bother to come down and apologize, instead he turned his car around and started insulting our driver. On a normal day I would have done anything to avoid getting involve but like I said today is Monday and I'm never in a good mood on Mondays especially morning. He was about to leave when I got down from the taxi and picked a not too big stone and threw it at his side mirror and it shattered into piece. He stopped the car immediately and the sensible part of my brain tells to take my brother's hand and run for my life but my pride is at stake and my leg wouldn't move. I looked at my brother to know what he thinks and I can see the shock on his face and am sure he thinks I've finally lost it. The other car reversed back and green eyes stare back at me. At first all I could do was look at the green eyes and wondered how it could be possible for someone to be this handsome.
Then he said "what are you" looking angry and shocked.
That brought me back to reality so I smiled and answered"I am someone that is ready to empty her pocket if it means buying you a brain" folding my arms in front of me, something I do when I'm nervous. Instead of getting angry as I thought, he smirked and said in a very strict voice"what was that for?
"Oh the stone? It's a pay back for trying to kill us, I know I should have done more than that but that is all I am able to do for now" I answered him. That got him angry "How dare you? Do you know who I am?" He's so full of himself then I said "who do you think you are? Just because you are allowed to drive your father's car doesn't mean you are allowed to kill!" Of course I know he's old enough to own a car ,he probably is in his late 20's but I really want to hurt his stupid ego. He looked as if he's trying to calm himself down and said "you are lucky am in a good mood today" Then the crazy part of me choose to come out again so I challenge him " what would you have done huh? Don't even dare to look down on me just because am a woman, you would be surprise by how much I can do"
"We shall see" those were his words to me before he drove away. I couldn't forget those words, for no reason those words scare me. I don't even know him, on our way Williams wouldn't stop teasing me about the scene, that moment the responsible part of me came and I started thinking again, I just challenged a man I don't even know, oh my god what have I done? My mother have warned me to know when to shut my mouth up or else it might bring me trouble but I never listen, now look what I have done with my mouth.
