Train Station

Im so (not) sorry

For almost 2 months now I have work hard on my job. Mr. Gram added another job for me. Getting things for him when he needs it. This could be the worst job I have ever gotten. My brother hates seeing me work hard until I could drop dead to the ground. Up and down the stairs, I have been doing that for so long I counted every stair I stepped on. I had blisters on my heels and toes from my worn out shoes with a hole in my left shoe.

I have saved almost over two thousand dollars. This job was worth it in a way but was a stab in the back, especially the boss. He has been on my last nerves and I've almost had enough of it. He's past the line way too many times and I've let him be. how could I have done that? Again for the money so I could leave. I was so done with this building and I couldn't wait to leave it.

While I was in my janitors outfit I checked my watch and it was almost time to go upstairs and work for Mr. Gram. I changed into my regular clothes and ran to the elevator. All of them closed with people standing inside them, and I missed it. I couldn't miss my shift or I would get fired so I looked towards the stairs.

"Almost there" I said hanging onto the bars. I couldn't do this anymore I needed to quit now. I made the third to last level to the top. It was like climbing mount Everest to the top.

I made it and I was five minutes late for my shift. Mr. Gram came walking to me and told me I was five minutes late. "I know I'm so sorry for being late all the-"

He cut me off with his loud voice. "Well I'm not miss Emily! I've been working so hard for you to get this job and to give you money, you should thank me for giving you this job!" He yelled at me in my face. I've had enough.

"You, working your butt off for me?! I have been working my ass off for you! You have torn me up in little pieces and I've had enough of your shit! I can't stand being here anymore in this building! I quit!" I stood there inches from his face and I could tell everyone was looking at me. He stared straight into my eyes and it was almost as if he was trying to burn my soul. "I'm not sorry" he told me staring into my eyes still. I turned around and walked away to the clear elevator. He stood in front of the elevator and looked at me. I flipped him off and the doors of the elevator closed. I stood in the elevator mad and stressed. I started to cry of happiness, I am finally free from that hell hole and I can leave to France. This was my day of celebration and victory.

Once my brother came home he told me he heard about everything. He told me right after I left he started to scream and had a fit in his office. He was very proud too that I did that to Mr. Gram. He said that he was about to fire James but he said he decided not to because he needed him.

Before I went off to bed my brother called me into the living room. He told me to sit down and I did exactly what he said. "I'm so proud of you working hard and saving money to get out of the country so I decided to get you this" he said to me, holding out a dress that had cameras, maps and anything that had to do with traveling printed all over. I gasped and told him he didn't have to do that. "Look, you're going on a new adventure and you need a little something to keep you fancy, and wait follow me" James dragged me into his bedroom and he scavenged through his messy closet to the top shelf. He pulled out an envelope and gave it to me. It had my full name written on the front. I opened the envelope and money came sliding out. I looked up at James and he smiled. A note popped out as well.

Dear Emily,
From the moment I gave birth to you I knew great things would come upon you. You have always dreamed of traveling the world and I decided to get all the money I had at the moment and put it in an envelope for when the moment would come. Don't spend the rest of your life doing things you don't want to do. There is and amazing amount of money in there, Spend it wisely. I hope you fulfill the dream you have had for a long time. I love you and I miss you. -Mom

Great adventures await ;)
