Lennon.

I woke up today, with a feeling of un-accomplishment. Mostly because I'm not working. I'd love to have money of my own rather than my parents sending me money. I tossed my hair out of my face and came to a decision that I would find a job today. I got my self dressed in a basic way. High bun, post earrings, a black polo, jeans and sneakers. Nothing serious if you're just looking for applications.

I went into the kitchen to get myself a little bit of breakfast. Of course, I would choose Froot Loops. The most unhealthy breakfast on earth. Oh well. Once I finished eating, I grabbed my house keys and went out. I decided to take a cab out to one of the more lively, tourist infested, parts of the city. The first store I checked out was this cute boutique on 34th street. They sold clothing and accessories for girls. The store was very very pink, but I couldn't complain. That's my favorite color. "Excuse me ma'am, are you hiring here?" I asked the woman who stood at the register. She looked as if she were only 37. "No dear. I'm sorry, we're not hiring." She said sweetly. "Okay thank you!" I said walking out of the store. Where do i go next?

I've searched just about every clothing store from 34th street to 42nd street. I even tried Forever 21 and H&M . None were hiring. My last hope was Victoria's Secret, the last place on my mind. Don't get me wrong, I love Victorias Secret, but working there will be a hassle. People. Mess up everything there and I'd have to fix it a countless amount of times. I walked into the store and it was very..... Pink. Not as pink as that boutique, but enough pink for my liking. "Who do I ask for an application here?" I whispered under my breath. Looking around, I tried to find someone to ask. There was an open cashier --surprisingly -- so I decided to head over there and ask the cashier. "Yes we are hiring. How old are you?" The girl questioned me. "Twenty One." I replied to her. "Okay hold on, I'll get your applications ." She told me. I waited no longer than 5 minutes for her to get back. She explained how it should be filled out and let me know that if I work here, I'll have to be committed. You know, job stuff. "Thank you! I'll bring this back as soon as I can." I said before leaving the store.

Back at home, I decided to dress down even more. Sweats, a camisole, and fuzzy slippers. I was all alone in the apartment with nothing to do. That is, until my phone rang. It was Tyler. I picked up the phone with a grin on my face.

McKenzie.

"Hey boo" I spoke into the phone. "Boo? Oh so we're on that level now, ma?" He asked me. His voice was deep and so beautiful, it gave me butterflies. "Maybe, maybe not." I said dragging out the 'maybe'. "Haha, we'll see ma. Anyways, I was wondering is you wanted to come shopping with my niece and I today." "Sure! When do you want me to stop by?" "Like, now please? If that's okay with you." "Fine, but just be aware, im going to look really bummy. " I said to him . "That doesn't matter. I don't judge, shawty. Come as you are. See you soon." "See you!" I hung up the phone and sighed. "What am I getting my myself into?" I asked myself. I don't know how much longer I can keep Tyler and Jacob from finding out anything. All I know is that it won't be easy. So what should I do?

What will happen when they both find out?

If I had to choose, then who would I pick?

I should've just been real from the start.
