Chapter 1 - Chapter 1: level of craziness.

Ariana whistled continuously as she walked to the restaurant for her morning shift. Her hair packed to a messy bun with stubborn strands all over her face. 

She walked to a table with a menu , their order was placed as she left to get their stuffs. She delivered it and went to another table.

Just then, a random guy spanked her round shaped ass, he and his friends laughed,their eyes beaming with lust. The random guy licked his lips ,his hand on his jaw starring lustfully at her heavenly endowed shape.

"How dare you? " She asked through gritted teeth,her eyes blazing with fury as she stared at the guy who immediately started shivering like a drenched cat under the rain.

"Oh! Common that was nothing" He said trying to play cool even though his heart was in his mouth. 

""Hmm , nothing, you say ,interesting " Ariana said as she released an heavy slap on his face.

"What the hell?"He screamed attracting the attention of more people. The slap had already attracted some people. 

"That's for spanking me, Pervert" She said and smirked and began to walk away when she sighted her boss coming towards her.

"What happened Mr. ?."Her boss, Mrs Jones asked stylishly glaring at Ariana.

"How dare a mere employee raise her filthy hands on my face huh. What good is this restaurant, I am never coming here again, " He said as he and his friends stood up preparing to leave as they mumbled amongst themselves. 

"We are sorry,it was a misunderstanding " Mrs Jones said in a pleading tone as she secretly pinched Ariana, using that gesture to signal to her to apologize but Ariana didn't bulge instead she was glaring hard at one of the guy's friend who was giving her a seductive gaze, licking his lip ring as he kept winking non stop ignoring the distasteful glare thrown at him.

"Ariana , apologize ?" Mrs Jones said with raised eyebrows as she tilted her head in such a way that only Ariana could get a good view of her face.

""But he sp..."

"Apologize Ariana or consider yourself fired" Mrs Jones said cutting her off.

She really needed this job, if she gets fired now,how will she take care of herself and her mom bills. 

This thoughts kept running through her mind as she sluggishly pulled her pair of straight legs to meet the guy who now had a cool demeanor , his hands folded across his chest as he stared intently at Ariana, a sly grin plastered on his face .

She cleared her throat like someone that was about to make a speech as she brought out a pen from her jacket placing it on her mouth like a mic.

"Attention please, I want to make a speech" . She said clearing her throat louder than the first as she bent down dramatically like some who was dabbing, coughing out.

"I was attending to a customer when this asshole spanked my ass , his girlfriend's life achievement. I confronted him but do you all know what he said ? " . She asked her eyes scanning the restaurant , all eyes were on her as some who were enjoying the drama shaked their head eager to know where this was going to.

Mrs Jones clenched her fist as she glared at Ariana who was in her own world of craziness.

"He said Oh! Common that was nothing" Ariana said mimicking the guys voice as most of the customers laughed , some almost rolling off their seats. Her accent was just too hilarious. Mrs Jones found herself chuckling lightly but quickly cleared her throat.

"That's enough Ariana "Mrs Jones said as Ariana was about climbing a table to display another level of craziness. 

The guy clenched his fists, his jaw clinched ,his eyes blazing with unraged fury as he glared hard at Ariana who in turn also glared hard as she began taking calculated steps to the guy.

"Watch your back little missy " He muttered coldly as he smirked devilishly and walked out with his friends who received their own share of glare from both Ariana and the onlookers. 

* Keep walking perverts

* Use the door please. The people in restaurant chanted obviously supporting what Ariana did. The restaurant returned back to normal as people continued eating and chatting, some taking pictures of Ariana and posting it on their IG blog with the caption "The new found Actress ".

Mrs. Jones sighed out giving Ariana a deadly glare as she signaled to her to follow her.

They got to her office and Mrs Jones sat down starring at Ariana who kept drawing imaginary lines with her legs on the tiled floor. 

"I never knew I had a drama queen as an employee " Mrs Jones said and Ariana eyes widened . She was actually expecting Mrs Jones to scold her.

" That was a little bit much, I don't want a customer leaving a bad review of this restaurant, so next time tread cautiously" Mrs Jones added as she sat up switching on her computer. 

"OK ma'am"Ariana replied cheerfully . Mrs Jones signaled her to leave and she was about leaving when she turned back making Mrs Jones to raise an eyebrow.

"I'm done with my work for today, I was wondering if I could get my pay cheque" Ariana said slowly without stuttering. 

" You will get it at the end of this week, leave Ariana" Mrs Jones said almost raising her voice as Ariana scurried out of the office. 

She picked her hand bag as she exited the restaurant, hailing a cab, heading to her next part time job. 

A dark haired masked guy could be seen in an alley making a phone call as he scanned the area suspiciously. 

"Boss , it is all set . Just a word from you and it would be released." The masked guy said dipping his free hands into his pocket as he continued studying his environment. 

"Release it" A voice said from the other end as the masked guy grinned mischievously. 

"Yes boss" He said as he quickly made another call ,he inserted his phone into his pocket ,covered his head with the hoodie he was putting on before sprinting out of the alley.

Ariana sat down on the chair next to her mom's bed as she sobbed quietly holding on to Mabel, her mother's hand. 

She placed her head gently on the bed as she continued sobbing remembering how it all happened. Her father, Dave and Mabel were both involved in a car accident. They wanted to get something from the grocery shop when it happened. 

Luckily for her , she had gone to a friend's birthday party that evening, she didn't go with her parents. 

She saw the news on the headline when she got home that night as she ran to the hospital they were admitted to. Sadly, she was told her father's body got burnt , the accident caused an explosion. Her mom then fell into coma and hasn't woken up since then.

She cried harder as the memories came afresh. No matter how had she tried to forget about it. It was a really painful experience to witness .

She tends to a act crazy sometimes just because she wants to hide her pain and suffering. 

"Mom I've missed you a lot, I would do anything to make sure I keep paying your bills. Keep fighting mom, don't give up mom pls. I love you so much mom". Ariana stuttered trying hard not to break into another round of tears.

" Excuse me ma'am, the doctor would like to see you in his office" A nurse with a very bushy eyebrow said to Ariana , she nodded as she sniffed before exiting the ward.

"Good day Miss Paige , let me go straight to the point, your mom isn't responding to treatment because of the drugs she is taking. We need to prescribe a new set of drugs which cost is higher than the previous drugs. She needs to be monitored , we are planning to transfer her to another hospital with better facilities. But you haven't deposited any money for this month treatment. I suggest we should discharge her if...." The doctor said his hands placed on his desk as he starred at Ariana. 

"No please don't sir ,I would look for a much better paying job , just give me a week please" Ariana said almost falling to her knees, her hands clasped together as she pleaded. The doctor thought for a while before nodding. Ariana stood up slowly, thanking him then exited the office with traces of tears on her face as the doctor starred after her shaking his head pitifully.
