Julia's POV
Julia opened the door, and she greets by her wife rubbing braille board. "Julia?" She smiled and sat on the floor next to Cecilia.
Julia hods her hand and took a deep breath. "I met Karens at the grocery store and my workplace today." Cecilia laughs at her.
She leans her head on Julia's shoulder and played her fingers. "I want to hear it!" Julia nods as she looked at her.
Flashback on
Julia get out of her cars and she didn't forget to lock the car. She picked her phone as she saw a woman yelling at someone. Julia approaching them and she separated them. "Don't touch me, you peasant!" Julia gasp and closed her mouth.
She only wants to stop the commotion. Julia asked who was on her side. "What's wrong?" She looks at the traffic that they caused. No cops or security guard around to solve the problem. And again, she was already involved.
She can't leave them alone or things became ugly. "I want to park my car, and she was standing in front of my car and she accused me wants to kill her! I already press the honk and she did not budge." Julia sighed. "Ain't have any intention of killing her, man. I just want to buy some supplies for my kid!" Julia looks at the traffic behind him.
"Do you have any evidence or witness?" He nods. The man told her to following him and he showed her the recording of his dashcam. "Can you move a bit? Because you made a traffic jammed, sir." Julia approached the woman.
"He wants to kill me!" Julia tries to calm her down.
"Ma'am, please, calm down!" Julia said.
She wants to teach the woman in front of her a lesson, but she couldn't blow her cover in front of civilians because her Nonna is still around. Julia clenched her fist and took a deep breath, then exhale. "L-listen, ma'am, listen…" she shushing Julia.
"No, listen!" She glared at Julia. "That man behind you, he wants to kill me!" She tries to make the woman in front of her calm. "You should be in jail!" Julia took a deep breath.
"Ay! ain't try to kill you, man." Julia once again looking at the traffic.
Julia can't call the cops because the woman keeps harassing his right. She can hear a honking sound from behind her back. "Ma'am…" she keeps arguing with that man. No other choice. Julia pushed them to the side of the road.
"I own these grocery stores! I can call your manager and told him to fire you!" A couple of security guard approaching them. Julia can't go anywhere because she was the witness. "I want to talk to the manager!" Julia cursed this woman.
Flashback off
Cecilia laughs after Julia told the story about her day. Julia leaned her back on the couch and she took a deep breath, "yeah, Karen." Cecilia wiped her tears and she played with her fingers.
"D-do you have another story? Hahaha…" She nods.
"It happened on the work." Julia said.
Flashback on
Julia tidying her collar and wears her cap. "Julia!" She jumped because of her colleague surprised her. Julia growled and sighed. "Karen wants to talking to you." He laughs. She put her pin on her shirt and straightened her body, then walked to the commotion.
She took a glance at the Mazetti's henchmen, who were eating a lot of burgers nearby the window. She shook her head and looking at her one of her colleagues looking at her with teary eyes. "Good evening, ma'am. My name is Julia McCarthy, and I'm the General Manager on this branch. What can I help you?" She lower her tone as low as possible, but inside her heart she wants to punch this woman in front of her.
"This employee trying to steal my expensive wristwatch and my husband's watch! Do you know how expensive this watch is !? It's Julia Salvatore's watch!" Julia sighed.
She looking at her employee and she shook her head. "What if we settle this inside my office?" Julia wants to shove her mouth on her wristwatch, but she couldn't do that. Not with this disguise. The woman in front of her, rejects.
"No, I want you to fire this girl or you will have a word with my lawyer," she said. Julia took a deep breath and exhale.
"Ma'am. We apologize about what happened to you, but did you have a prove to support your allegation? We can't be fire someone without a… reasonable accusation." Julia said, "but if it's true, she would steal your husband's watch, and your wristwatch. Can you show me the proof?" Julia's heart start to beating so fast.
"I just want to talk with a manager!" Julia closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"She's a manager, dude! Did you not listening to her!?" said another man from the crowd. Julia tries her best to make the crowd to calm down.
"We watched her returning! We saw the girl returned their watch!" Julia wants the crowd to calm down.
Julia wants to get rid of the couple in front of her. "You should fucking listen to my wife! We know who owned this branch here. Julia Salvatore was our daughter." Julia took a deep breath. She wants to laugh and blew up her undercover, but she promised to her wife to avoiding spotlight for a while.
"Sir, ma'am, with all of my respect. We're not firing someone for the crime she did not commit, and please get out because you made a commotion in our restaurant." Julia gave them a gesture to the exit door.
The couple stomped their feet as they walked to the outside of the restaurant. "I will sue all of you if I saw my face on YouTube!" The couple leave as the crowd cheered. Julia brings her employee to the supervisor's office for further investigation.
Flashback off
Cecilia holds Julia's hand. She kissed her cheek and smiled at her. "You deserve a promotion, Julia. If they fired you, I will be the one who sued them." Julia chuckling and shook her head.
She took a deep breath and kissed her wife's cheek as she brushed her hair. "What if we…" a knocked door heard and Julia took a deep breath. She wears her disguise and cleared her throat.
Cecilia hides the braille board underside of the table and she opened the door. "Julia? Can I come in?" She furrowed her brow and took a glance at Cecilia. Julia wants to close the door, but she holds it. "I need your help!" Julia looks at her wife and she nods.
Julia exhales and lets her get inside and she looking from the window. She saw the man who ate burgers at the restaurant that morning. They probably following her. "Babe, can you boil water?" Julia nods and she walked to the kitchen and fills the pot with tap water.
"Tell me what do you need, Cam!" Cecilia stomped Julia's feet.
Cecilia sat next to Camelia and she reassuring her. "I-It's about my fiance, Robert. I-I think he works for the feds," Julia raised her eyebrow.
