The Affair [DISCONTINUED]

Petra Ral ~5~

Eren's POV:

"So you want to work here?" The manager asks sceptical raising an eyebrow at me.

"Yes, I know I'm young but you need the help right" She sighs and looks me straight in the eyes.

"Well I did offer you the job and we do need all the help we can get, alright you got it kid. Since it's the weekend we can teach you the ropes around here today"

"The sooner the better, thank you Mrs. Ral"

"Please just call me Petra, besides we need some help around here" I nod as she yells out someone to come out. A few seconds later three men come out with the same Uniform as Mrs.Ral- I mean Petra

"This is Oluo, Eld, and Gunther, As you already know I am the manager here, but I also work around here since this place doesn't have much workers" I nod greeting the rest of my new coworkers here.

"Eld I was wondering if you can show him the ropes around here"

"Yeah no worries, c'mon kid let's go to the back" I wave the rest of them goodbye as we make our way to the back. He has dirty blonde hair as it's tied up in the back, he seems like he's worked here for a while, he looks like he's in his early 20's.

"So kid tell me why you working here"

"What?"

"A kid your age wouldn't care about working, and besides you looked desperate to get this job" I give a sigh looking at him. If we're going to work together then he going to find out. Besides if he tells everyone he knows then I could just beat him to the punch, literally.

"Well, I have someone special to me who is in a unhealthy relationship, I want to make enough money to at least get him enough money so he can have a place to stay" He smiles at me softly with sad look on his face.

"You seem like a good kid, we might be equally screwed, I'm in dept to the Smith's company"

"The Smith's Company?"

"Yeah you see I barely know how to read or write so when I asked them to translate the form they ended up scamming me now I'm in dept, so I've been trying to work off the dept. I usually don't tell other people this but since were coworkers you'll find out eventually"

Did they actually scammed him, I've heard of the Smith's company before. They're a very successful company I don't see any reason why they would do such a thing. The company has been handed down to Erwin Smith about two years ago, they did change the name of the company after the new owner. I've only heard good things about them, but now since there is a new owner it seems everything is going downhill. I have heard some rumors about how terrible the place is, and how they make the workers work overtime with no rest, they have scammed multiple people, but they always somehow get away with it. How can you do that to an innocent man, he seems like a good guy to. Is this what it's company stands for now, how can you scam someone who just needed one simple request.

The very thought of it is just sickening, makes me what to slaughter the man and the company responsible for this, I put my hands into a fists in anger but soon calming myself down to have a decent conversation with Eld.

"I'm sorry that happened to you, you don't deserve that really. But how do you take orders when you can barely write" He gives a bit of a chuckle turning towards me.

"Well I memorize the writings of the specific order to the drink and just pretend to write something down so it looks like I know what I'm doing" I nod at him, maybe I can help him out as well.

"Hey kid your doing that wrong"

"Oh I am?"

"Yeah let me help you out"
