Am I that Unlovable? by Summer Cheng

Chapter 18

 Nino's POV:

 I was not sure was I was thinking.

I just bought something from Adrien.

 How was I to come up with the money?

   I was not expecting payment for the artwork until next week.

   I completed the comic strip and clicked on send.

   

Nino's POV:

I hoped my boss liked the work.

I deserved a raise, according to Alya.

I worked three jobs.

I had my job at the art shop, the comic strip business, and there was the wig business.

  Goodness, I was so busy, I was surprised Alya, and I even had time to spend together.

    I  supposed I was just fortunate.

  Nino's POV:

  I turned in my lottery ticket from last week.

 I  knew it was a long shot, but I probably would not win.

  I breathed a sigh of relief as the numbers 1-12-23-45-56-42 were called.

   I shouted at the top of my lungs, "Yes, I won!  I won the lottery!"

  

  Nino's   POV:   

     I grinned.

     I claimed my prize.

   After taxes, the total won came to $10,000.  It was still enough to pay for the ring.

    I posted a response as to where to meet me with the piece of jewelry.  

   

       Nino's  POV:

       I waited for an answer.

    Good, I thought it did not sound like it was too far from here.

        I bought a few flowers. 

      I gently placed them in the new vase with water for Alya.

      I hoped Adrien would not be disappointed about who purchased the item.
