Naps are fun but have you tried waking up from them because your phone rang and it interrupted a good ass dream. I know right.I woke up from my quick nap because I heard my phone ring. I sigh as I pick it up and answer the call. I was greeted with yelling. "WHERE ARE YOU!!!" My boss yelled from the other end of the line. I groan. "Sandy said I had this weekend off... Go ask her" I said trying not to sound mean.
"I called you like three times, trying to tell you that changed... Maybe you should have called sandy or picked up earlier." Boss man said. I roll my eyes. He couldn't see. "well I'm not being called in on the days I asked for to be off. I have been working for two weeks straight, including weekends. I haven't got to see my kitchen in two weeks... Maybe you should find some more workers so you don't have to call in employees that are off" I said scowling into the phone.
They were silent. "Your working extra this week" he said, hanging up right after. I set my phone down and scream into the pillow on the couch. "I should just quit... Maybe work on my own..." I said. I sigh. "Nah... I need this job... It pays good" I said. No one was in the room but I still talked to myself.
I looked down at my feet. "Ugh" I said. I sit up and rub my eyes. I check the time "7:00" I stated. The sun was setting but it was light outside. A light orange colour setting a mood for a nice swim or ending of a picnic.. I close my blinds and close the curtains.
I turn my TV on and a cartoon was on. It was bugs bunny and I laughed. "Perfect." I said. I walked outside. I saw a phone on the windowsill outside of the next door apartment. I pick it up and knock on the door. "Hello" someone said opening the door. He was really tall and had a floating ram skull for a head. He wore a Slipknot hoodie and looked like he would kill me any second. I smile.
"is this one of y'all's phone" I ask. He looks at it. "Yeah that's Garcello's phone. He must have left it outside." He said. "Okay... I was about to say... Who hangs out around this building and leaves their phone" I said. "I'm Y/N, your next door neighbor." I said holding a hand out. He looked at it, took the phone from my hand and closed the door. My smile fades a little. "Okay then" I said scratching the back of my neck.
I walk back to my apartment and close the door, locking it this time. "We don't want what happened last time to happen again now do we" I asked myself. "why do I do that" I said, facepalming at the fact that I ask myself things and talk to myself. I look at the cartoon on my TV and smile again
I grab my phone and contemplate something. I smile and order a pizza. "Hi I would like to place an order for one large pizza please..." I said after the line connected. "Any toppings?" The speaker asked from the pizza place. "Pepperoni, mushrooms, jalapenos and black olives please" I said. "Anything else" they ask. "Oh and a F/D" I said. They stay silent for a minute. "Okay it will take five minutes to cook and about tem minutes to get to where you are" they said. I thank them and hang up. "Wait how do they know where I live..." I said.
I watch cartoons and just sit there. There was nothing to do so I just flipped through channels. I stopped when some breaking news was in the channel. "Breaking news, the Dearest family has just released an album and it has already reached number one in the music tier list. Passing all of their other songs and other opponents, their song from the threat album that reached the top is, 'that damned boyfriend'. It's supposedly about a true story just portrayed in their pov-" the news lady said before I switched the TV channel to Sofia the First.
I quietly sang the theme song and laughed at my foolishness. I hopped up and went to the kitchen to clean it up for the sake of my sanity. I cleaned everything even though it was already sort of clean. I heard my doorbell ring and a knock on the door. I open it to see a tall blonde male. "Here, that will be five dollars for your discounted pizza" he said smoothly. I laugh.
"Who discounted it" I asked. "One of our other workers" he said. I look confused but shrug it off and hand him the money anyways and take the pizza. "thank you sir" I said. He walked off and winked. I close the door and fake gag. I did not like it when random people winked at me.
I set the pizza down and looked at the TV. I felt like playing a game. I wait on pizza and turn on my Xbox. I had few games but that didn't matter. I turn on my controller when I heard a knock on my door. I open it again. "Oh hey there, ummm what do you need" I said looking at my neighbor. It was the ram skull guy again. "Umm.. I wanted to say sorry for being a dick earlier" he said.
"I'm tabi" he said. I smile. "it's okay dude" I said. "Wanna come play halo 3 with me" I ask him. He nodded. I let him in and he looked around. "Nice little vibe you have going on" he said. He sat on the couch after I had. He grabbed a controller. "Thanks" I said grabbing one as well. We played halo for an hour until I remembered the pizza on the counter. "Shit.. do you want some pizza" I ask. He shakes his head. "Alright" I said getting up. I get a slice and eat it In the kitchen.
I leave and tabi was waiting. "Hey I gotta go, my roommates are back. Garcello and Whitty" he said. I nod. "Come back when ever you wanna play again" I said watching him open the door and close it behind him. I go lock my door and see that it's almost night time.
"Maybe we should all go somewhere and play he's or eat pizza one day" I said to myself. Not a bad idea. Plus, I get to meet Whitty next time. Getting to know my neighbors is gonna be great. "Y/N come on... No one likes you" I say to myself. I slap the table and turn everything off. I go to my room and fall asleep on the bed.
