fractured luck

chapter one: blues story

Summer nights, warm breeze, calm mind

That's what I imagined what life is like after it happened.

The end is what happened, just kidding. I ran out of cash and I'm living with my mom now. I'mfifteen years old now, with no boyfriend and dad. My dad died when I was five and that's all I know so far about him. I never graduated, but I plan to, once I get a job. I want to work at this smoothie shop down the street but, my mom wants to get a job somewhere bigger. My heart is set on being a doctor but, that's a lot of years in college and that's lot of work. My name is Blue, my mom named me Blue, after my eyes, yes very original. I try to make the best out of life, and I do. I have a house and a parent who loves me, oh and a cool camera. I like taking picking pictures of the beach and the sky. The beach is my happy place, sandy toes, and the salty ocean is the perfect place to breathe and think. I go there once a week, to clear my mind from stress. But, I finally got a job actually at the smoothie place. I'm not the best worker, but I try. I was making a smoothie, I had to put mango. but I accidentally put in strawberry/ The customer blew up at me. I said, "can you just jam it?" I made him laugh and, thankfully, I didn't get fired that day. I got my first paycheck the other day, and I was so pumped. Now, I officially have fifty dollars, after working for one week. After working there for five weeks, I have two-hundred and fifty dollars now. That's pretty good, right? I mean, my job pays terrible, for ten dollars a day. I have to work seven hours, and I get paid so little. Today I went home and found out that my dog, which is really old, has cancer. We took him to the vet, and she confirmed it. I mean, he was puking a lot and it makes sense. Also, the vet said he has a limited amount of days, three weeks in fact. That's literally no time. My mom told me to paint a gravestone, so I am. Life literally sucks. I need a miracle right about now. Good news! The vet has medication, so my dog has a chance to live. Finally, a miracle. Life update, my dog lived! I'm so happy about it. The other day at the juice place, I made so many smoothies in a day. The manager was so impressed. Also, there is a new restaurant that was built right by my house. it's really fancy, and I heard it pays a lot. So I'm thinking of quitting my other job and trying to work at the restaurant. Ok, so I quit the smoothie shop and doing an interview today at the restaurant, and I thought it turned out well. After two days I find out got if I'm hired or not, and is hired. I'm so excited about it. I start on Monday, so I have to get good rest.
