Devour Me

STRUGGLING

Emma's POV

When Sam had passed away I was destroyed I had made up my mind to move to NEW YORK and find a job , Sam's passing had me realize that there were to many memories that resided in that house.

After two months of home searching I had found an apartment that was located in a good stable area and  the rent wasn't so bad, it was affordable the only thing that was left pending was finding myself a suitable job.

I had seen four call centers and six bars but they turned me down because I didn't have any work experience which sucked Sam never allowed me to worked she always said and I quote

 ' long as I'm around Emma you will never have to work I am your mother and I can take care of you till the day I die'

If anyone were to have seen Sam and me they would have thought she was my real mum we both had jet black hair and black eyes and we had the same nose and plump lips

''''TIME SKIP TO 3 DAYS LATER ''''

I had been to a few shops to see if they had wanted help but they didn't. I was on my way home and I stopped infront of a eatout and it so happened that they needed help, I ran in as quick as my legs would carry me and  saw a girl at the counter she wore a black skirt with a white t-shirt. I waltzed in
"hi I'm Emma and I saw your notice out front about needing help and it is a major coincidence that I am looking for a job at the moment " I spoke out of breath

"hi nice to meet you Emma, I'm Nancy and yes we do need help take a seat and I will call out our manager to interview you "
"that would be awesome thank you " I said shaking her hand

I had taken a seat in a booth it had a dim lighting that made it look very beautiful a few minutes later a middle aged lady has slipped in taking a seat

"I'm Anna the manager for 'eats' and Nancy had fulled me in on you ,do you have any experience as a waitress "

she asked in a strict tone

"no I don't but I am a fast learner and I am willing to learn if you were to give me a chance " I answered honestly 

"we are in need of help so I won't question you further you have the job so please don't let me down Emma this eatout has a good reputation "

" I won't I promise Anna when can I start? "

"first thing Sunday  we are usually full on weekends so we will need all hands on board "
"thank you so much I appreciate it "

"it's no problem you can pick up your uniform on Saturday I'll call you when it's ready leave your number with Nancy at the front desk "
"thank you "I said while shaking her hand

I walked up to the front and waited for Nancy to finish cleaning up a table
"hey you so what did Anna say? "
"I officially start on sunday "

she squealed and jumped over the counter hugging me
"I have a feeling we will get along just great Emma "she said, I felt her sniff me if I wasn't wrong or maybe it was just my imagination playing with my mind
"yeah I am sure we will " I said gently pushing her away
