After a long day in school I decided to drop off in the pizza palace I applied for a job in, the owner of the pizza palace was a very disagreeable human being as she yells all the time.
I wasn't exactly sure if I'm getting the job or not but I just needed to check in and see if she finally agreed, she was the only mini shop owner in my area that pays very well and she pays daily that was the main reason I needed to work for her.-
Depending just on my mom is a no for me because she doesn't care if their is food in the house or not.
I said a little prayer in my heart as I walked into the shop, the customers where much as usual which shows how good her pizza tasted.
"I am here to see Mrs Barbara, I came here last week seeking for job" I said calmly to the black guy behind the counter.
"Have a sit, I will go get her for you" he said in a slight smile and went towards an entrance that obviously was the kitchen.
I just hoped the lady won't embarrass me, she is just too grumpy.
Few minutes later the lady walked out in a stern expression sending shivers down my spine, she gestured me to come over to the counter which I hastily did.
"So you're Miss Elizabeth Albie?" She asked as I nodded "words please"
"Yes I am ma"
"You are a student as seen on your application letter and you wish to work part-time?…"
" Yes ma"
"hmm… Okay, seeing how keen you're in getting this job i will offer you a job" she said in a frowned facial expression, I was just so happy that I finally got a job I couldn't wait to get it started.
"Thank you so much ma I…"
"Don't thank me just yet, you don't know if the section you will work in is a poor one" she said wrinkling her forehead, I was ready to work as a cleaner if that will get me money daily! "Well your job here is to take Orders and serve the customers, I don't need to remind you that you have to be tolerant right" she said as I nodded.
"Yes ma" I quickly replied remembering that she doesn't like gestures.
"So you will go over there and put down your name and the days you'd be coming to work, just make sure you come three times per week" she said and walked back in.
I did as instructed and happily danced back home, she wasn't bad as I expected at least she didn't yell at me.
I got home happily to find the door opened and a strange car parked outside, my mom was definitely back and she isn't alone as usual.
I flung the door opened as my eyes caught my mom riding an old man naked on the couch!, This is the worst view ever! And so embarrassing what if I wasn't the one that walked in?, Someone else would have seen my mom fvcking a random man for some little dollar bills!.
"Mom!?" I Muttered in shock as she swung down from the man's body wrapping her clothes around her body as the man wore his hurriedly and ran out.
"You came back late today Elizabeth, what Happened?" She asked trying to act like nothing happened which got me even more pissed.
"Are you seriously asking me that?, Mom why do you keep on embarrassing me!! Just imagine if maybe Mel walks in here to meet my mom having an intercourse with a married man!… I am so ashamed having you as a mother!" I yelled as I ran upstairs to my room with endless tears rolling down my cheeks… I would better leave this house for her to turn it to a prostitute home, by the way I'm old enough to live alone.
Thank God it's Friday and a lecture free day at that, I woke up early in other not to get scolded by Mrs Barbara and I also have to give a good impression as it was my first day at work.
I changed into a simple gown making sure that I didn't show my curves as I hung my bag and rushed out to work, I felt happy butterflies in my belly as I couldn't just wait to experience how work would be.
"You are 1 min late Elizabeth, I don't tolerate lateness" Mrs Barbara said as she handed me a book which obviously was the order book.
Like seriously she was complaining of me coming just a minute late!?, How early does she expect me to wake up?, and everyone in Baltimore knows how bad the traffic can be in the morning.
