Bang! Bang! Bang! Was the sound I always woke up to, I think my neighbor always did it on purpose to annoy me and there is not much I can do since going to ask him to stop the noise only makes him eye rape me and I can't call the cops on him either because he is the landlord Gerald's son and I'm late to pay my rent
I'm a single mom who has to choose between her child's school fee and rent. We aren't living the dream life but I can't trade Ava's(my daughter's) education for anything so I have no choice but to quietly take all the perverted looks from my landlord and his son. I need this house just until I get my bonus check from the diner then I and Ava can look for a place in a better environment.
I quickly stood up and started my daily routine which was just me being in a crappy mood for waking up too early and sluggishly brushing my teeth selecting my clothes for the day and having my bath. Ava has gone for a school trip and would be back next week
I work at a diner that has fairly nice people and its a really good thing for me cause everyone around me is just sleazy and perverted
My boss Mr. Raymond character always depended on his mood and he has this really fucked up mood that makes me so sure that if he was a pregnant woman no one would want to be around him. So you never know when to expect a nice man and when to expect a boss that's just a total prick
"Skylar you're late". Seriously!? Guess it's his bad mood day
"Seriously dude I'm just three minutes late and it's 5:03 who the hell makes their employees go to work by 5:00"
"Better watch your mouth and remember the boss here, Skylar "
"shit". I silently cursed
"sorry". I said quietly. I really shouldn't have said that especially since the I knew he was letting employees go today but my stupid mouth just didnt know when to stop letting words out
"Whatever", he says while rolling his eyes "go do your job". Wow he really rolled his eyes what is he three?
I quickly go across the counter greet my other employees and start-up the coffee machine
~ A Few hours later~
"Skylar the boss requested for you". Brian said
"OK thanks". I quickly stated, I was really nervous two people had already been called into the office and the second person was fired.
I took a deep breath before knocking
'Knock' 'knock'. I lightly tapped on the door as though scared that if I'd knock with any type of force then I'd definitely be fired
"Enter". He said in a brief and serious voice called from the inside
Opening the door I noticed him sitting behind his desk with a serious look on his face and his eyes focused on his laptop
"Have a sit Skylar" I sit down silently praying at I don't get fired
"Sir?" I said after noticing that he kept his attention on his laptop
"Hold on a second". He said raising a finger
"Ok, Skylar I'm busy right now so I'm just going to cut to the chase" he raises his eyes off his computer for like a second
"Like you know I'm cutting some people of today and I'm so sorry to say that 'I'm firing you"
"Please sir I have no other options I'm so sorry that I was a bit rude this morning I promise to never try a stunt like that ever again," I said as my tears slowly started falling like a pouring rain
"There is nothing I can do for you but" he brings out a white envelope from his desk and hands it to me "that is compensation for the stress and for the time you worked with us have a nice day and see your self out"
Leaving the office with tears streaming down my face I notice my colleagues giving me pitiful glances probably guessing that I have been fired with the broken expression and the thunderstorm going on, on my face
Arriving at my home I noticed my luggage's on the floor right next to my door
"No! No! No"I cried out.
Gerald gave me time to pay up what sort of devil possessed him to kick me out right after I just lost my job. I quickly found my way to his apartment knocking like a crazy person
"What the fuck... Who the hell is that"
"Its Sky! Gerald"
"fucking bitch" he muttered while opening the door.
"Gerald what's going on you said you were going to give me time to pay up
"Yes and I changed my mind"
"Gerald pls don't do this to me I promise I'd pay you all I owe you by the end of this month"
"I'm sorry Sky my hands are tied here...but I can untie them if your willing to grant me some favors." He states giving me a dirty perverted look
"Fuck you bastard," I screamed at him walking out
Confused and drained I roam the streets with no idea where to go or whom to run to.
My only friend from the coffee shop was squatting and I couldn't bear being a burden to her by imposing my problems on her
With everything going on in my head I didn't notice where I was going and before I knew what was going on, a careless bicycle rider sped towards me and hitting my box and making me lose balance and falling by the road directly in front of a moving car
"Oh my God, Oh my God I'm so sorry the driver came out apologizing profusely"
"Its ok. No serious harm is done" I said. Immediately I stood up I felt dizzy and my leg hurt like crazy. My dizzy spell started again and before I could hold my self I fell to the ground
People had gathered around me by then
"Hey let's get you to the hospital," she said
As I looked up I recognized her an old high school classmate
"Ariana?" I asked not sure if I was seeing right or if my blurry vision was playing tricks on me
"Sky...Skylar?" She asked back probably confused and shocked that fate brought us back this way
"Sky, sweety how about we get you to the hospital you look like your about to pass out any second"
I didn't even get to give a reply before passing out
