We rushed to her room as soon as we heard her crying.
"What's wrong Cindy?" I asked panting.
She looked at me with teary eyes,
"Anthon cheated on me."
Alright, how do I explain this.
Basically, since it was a Sunday Cindy called us over so we could watch movies together.
Me and Zach didn't have anything better to do so we came over.
Her parents weren't home, so we invited ourselves in with the spare key. I knew where it was because I've been coming here for the past 7 years.
As soon as we entered we could hear her.
Her cries were loud enough to be heard downstairs.
I was confused, since she sounded so happy when she had called us like 20 minutes ago.
-------
"Anthon cheated on me."
"Wait how could he cheat on you? He's your damn dog Cindy." Zach said sighing.
"Well when I-"
Zach cut her off.
"She's on her period, what did we expect?"
"Hey! What does me being on my period have to do with anything?"
"Chill Cindy. Zach got us snacks, let's watch some movies and eat, yeah?"
"....thanks."
And yeah! This is my friend group. Great first impression huh? Whatever I love them anyway.
After watching movies for a while, I had work so I had to leave and Zach decided to return home.
"Thanks for coming guys, and thanks for the food Zach."
"Bye Cind, try not to eat the house okay?"
"Shut up Zach." She said walking to the fridge.
I chuckled as we put the spare key back under the flower pot and headed to the car.
"I don't understand why you work. Doesn't your dad send you money?"
"He does but I don't wanna rely on him. Besides I get free coffee this way."
I paused for a bit.
"Actually it's just because I get free coffee." I said making Zach laugh. I reached his house slowing down the car.
"Well, up to you man. Thanks for driving me." He waved at me and left.
I headed to work. I work Monday, Wednesday and the weekends.
Sometimes I take sundays off but I don't really mind working on the weekends other than the fact that it's stupid busy.
Well I don't have a life anyway.
I don't have a girlfriend, or a boyfriend for that matter. The only romance I've had in my life has been random dudes hitting on me at work.
Make no mistakes, I'm not gay. But If I like the person I don't really care about the gender to be honest.
Besides most people in our city are pretty open minded. I haven't seen people get bullied for being gay, well, in my school atleast.
Arriving at work, I sighed. It was extra busy today.
I walked in, waving at Tanya, my coworker and quickly getting to work.
After 3 grueling hours of continuously faking smiles at people, saying I was tired was an understatement.
But hey, atleast I was almost done right?
Almost towards the end of my shift, I saw a group of guys come in. One of them came over to the counter to order, clearly much stronger and taller than me.
"Hi, what can I get you?"
"Um one sec."
He looked down at his phone, back up at me and then down again.
He then proceeded to give me a long ass order while I looked at him, my mouth slightly falling open. Seriously? I was almost done with my shift, darn it.
"Hey are you listening?" My head snapped up to find a slightly annoyed, but honestly gorgeous face staring back at me.(I'm not creepy I promise :p)
"Y-yeah. Do you mind repeating that? It's quite the long order." I said a little intimidated.
"Nevermind just look at everything in my notes. It's a lot but please make it quick."
I nodded taking his phone and looking at the long list.
We somehow managed to get everything done in 20 minutes and I called him over.
"About time." He said clearly annoyed. I tried to smile but I was getting tired of smiling at this point.
He walked back as the entire group attacked the food.
Just 5 more minutes, I thought looking at the clock.
Suddenly the guy from before got up and walked over.
"You got the strawberry drink wrong. " He snapped.
"Um I'm sorry it was a large order so we may have gotten confused-"
"Ah shut up. You literally have one job, and that's to get the darn order right." He shouted attracting attention.
"I'm sorry sir, I'll get you the right drink. Which one did you order?"
"Forget it. This isn't that bad. " He said and walked back.
What the actual fuck? Why did he have to scream if he didnt mind it?
