Chapter 23

Britt: I looked at my cell phone and saw that Mike was calling me... *shouldn't I be happy?* I asked myself. This negative feeling that he was just taking advantage of me had burned into me so deeply that my whole body was against him. I pushed him away... and he called again... annoyed, I pushed him away again. 7 times!! Until I turned off my cell phone angrily. *Now I am good enough for him?* I asked myself annoyed. I don't want to know how many women he was with on the last days... I noticed that the thoughts tormented me because I liked him very much...

"Brittney!!" someone shouted angrily from above.I was startled and looked up at my angry boss.His lips moved, and his facial features told me that he was yelling at me... I had to admit that he scared me sometimes.When he was threatening to terminate my job, a woman yelled from behind, "Hey!! You don't talk to your employees like that." She was a really pretty woman with gorgeous dark brown long hair and light brown shining eyes.She wore a checked shirt with a top and skinny jeans and nerd glasses.At first glance, you would probably underestimate her and not trust her to speak out.I didn't know who this woman was and why she had such control over the boss.The roaring monkey became a whimpering lamb. "Yes, Ma'am" was the only thing he did say.Amazed and with a small, triumphant smile, I watched him as he was humiliated in front of the whole restaurant.

"Are you all right?" The woman asked me. "Yes ..." I stammered. "my name is Sara, you are Brittney right?" *How did she know my name?* I wondered puzzled.It was as if Sara had heard my thoughts because she replied, "the ass yelled it loud enough through the restaurant. Never let a man treat you like that. Even if you are late, he has no right to shout at you like that." Sara: I've always had a kind of protective instinct when it comes to women. It was kind of a protective mechanism because in my own relationship I wasn't able to tell my boyfriend Tre how I really feel... and how much he hurt me. It is easier to defend and help others than yourself... Britt: Sara and I got into a conversation very quickly, it didn't take long before I found out who she was...
