Days have been passing smoothly and it has already been 1 month since I worked for Emery. By today, I will already be receiving my salary. I plan on going back home to spend my birthday with Mom and Dad but on November 12th, is a Monday so I can't have time to travel back and forth on a weekday. Emery looked at me in wonder why I had such a long face,
" Why the long face? You look ugly if you do that." Emery said.
" Oh, I was just thinking about my parents, I plan on returning there to celebrate my birthday but it seems like I don't have time to do so," I replied.
" Oh right, on November 12, it's her birthday," Emery thought to himself.
" You're growing old," Emery said,
" W-what? Isn't it normal for people to age? What about you, you are two years older than me aren't you?" I replied
" Do you think aging is in my genes? I mean like, look at this face of mine, such a million-dollar view isn't it?" Emery said,
This guy seems to become cocky and shameless every day, I have to accept the second-hand embarrassment for him whenever he talks like that it's just cringey. I just laughed at him off because I was lost for words.
* RINGS*
" Who's that?" Emery asked,
" Oh, it's Mason," I replied, I then answered the call.
>>IN CALL<<
MASON: Hey Shane! Since it's almost dismissal of working hours maybe I would wait in the lobby and then we'll drive to the mall?
SHANE: Sure, I only have little work to do left, I'm sure I could catch up.
MASON: Thanks a MILLION, I don't know what I could do without your help!
SHANE: Of course! We're friends! Anyway, I have to hang up okay? Bye!
>>END OF CALL<<
" What are you talking about? Going to the mall?" Emery asked, he seemed to have a dim expression while asking.
" Oh, it was Mason," I replied.
" What about him?" Emery asked again in a dim expression,
" Oh, he asked for my help because he says that he has a girl he likes and would want me to help him get something for her," I replied.
" Wait, I know this scene! He likes Shane, NO, I can't let him have her!" Emery thought to himself.
" Ehem, which mall are you going to?" Emery asked,
" Umm, I still don't know, he told me that he will just drive us to the mall on the spot. Anyway, why are you asking?" I asked.
" Nothing, it's just that I was also coming to the mall to buy some errands," Emery replied,
" Don't you have an errand boy you have there for you to buy you stuff?" I asked,
" Oh look it's already time! I should go to the mall to buy the errands I have to go!" Emery said in a panic.
Just in time, work hours were over, I met up with Mason and hopped into the car.
" You're here!" Mason said,
" Hey!" I replied,
" Anyways, shall we go? I still have no idea which apparel to go to buy her stuff," Mason said,
I nodded then Mason started to turn the engine on and drove off.
" Follow that car," Emery said to the driver,
" Yes Sir" the driver replied.
We then arrived at the mall and began to take a look at the clothes store but to no avail, we didn't get to choose the right one. We then moved to the make-up section but Mason said that the girl he likes does not use make-up that much. I then suggested him to take a look at the jewelry store, we took a look around the items, and finally, we found a necklace that compliments her personality. Mason chose a necklace of a crystal with gold around it like it was a pocket. We both paid the cashier and got out of the store and what a small world, look who we just bumped into,
" E-Emery?" I said,
" Nice to see you eh? Looks like we are in the same mall," Emery said,
" Oh, are you done doing your errands?" I asked,
" What is this then?" Emery said while pointing at the shopping bags.
" Hello Mr. Robertson, I am Mason Mitchell son of-"
" Mason, ok I know you," Emery said.
" Oh hey! Mason why don't we go to that restaurant we just passed by a while ago, Sir Emery we were going to eat do you want to join?" I asked,
" Sure, my treat," Emery replied.
