Meeting Stella

Part 1

Dear Diary,
                    My life is quite simple. Its kinda always been this way even in school. I would just go to school and come straight home. Even after graduating i still just go to work and come straight home.

I know its kinda boring right? I agree. Feels a little lonely sometimes too but thats ok.
I rather it be this way.

I mean who needs friends anyway. All everyone does is talk shit behind eachothers backs.
If thats what friendships look like then I want no part of it.

Coworkers at the bakery say enough mean things about me to my face. Call me fat. Say I should ease up off the free employee meals thats provided.

But I don't really care i love the food and treats here.
And honestly I don't think I look bad, I love my body.
And whats wrong with having cake!

Having curves just mean you got alot to explore if ask me.

But people here in this small town dont have a taste for a heavy person like me. What a shame, you'd think people would grow out of that old bull by now.
I mean come on its the 21st century.~~~~~~~

As I finish writing in my diary, I quickly check the time. "Yes, time to go!" I say quietly as I peak around the corner to see if everyone has left. With the coast clear I quickly put my things in my bag and stand to my feet keeping my music blasting in my ears.

A quick look around the kitchen to make sure everything's turned off. As I make my way to the front entrance I stop and realize I didn't clock out. Heading over to the counter i lay over it. And try to punch out. As I struggle to reach it both my wireless earbuds slip out my ear. I look down and sigh. Suddenly  I hear "Nice cakes."

I jump as fast as I could in fear and look behind me to see this semi tall woman smirking at me.

At first glance she almost didn't seem human. Shaking my head I snap out of it and smile at the guest.

As I catch my breathe i say, "yea the best in town." Then she giggles at me and says in a whisper "Of course they are."

I quickly make my way around the counter to the register. Thinking to myself whats so funny.

"So do you want some cake?" I ask

She grins wide as if trying to hold back laughter. "Not at the moment, but I will have a chocolate chip cookie."

"Sure, one cookie, that will be 1 dollar".

She hands me the dollar bill and I place it in the register. I walk a few steps away when she break the silence. "How long have you been working here?"

"For a couple  of years", I say grabbing the cookie and placing it in a to go baggy.
"Cool" she says.

"Are you always this funny?" She continues with questions.

"Yes I want to be a comedian" I say sarcastically.

As I hand over the treat to her, I look up at her and notice she's staring at me.
I notice how intense her gaze is on me.

I can't help but think whats her deal.
I quickly let go of the baggy so we didn't touch. I clock out and grab my earbuds. I look at her and tell her "The store is closed."
"Uh you can go now."

She just stands there in silence for a few seconds but it feels like a whole  minute. 
She then turns and head towards the entrance. Opens the door and turns half way.
"Maybe next time I'll get that cake you offered. Hahaha" she snikers and walk out.

And just like that she was gone. With much relief from the empty bakery i sigh and grab a chocolate chip cookie for myself.  "Wow she's scary" I say while locking up the bakery.
