Onika's Pov
I speed walked to the escalator and checked the time on my phone.
I let out a sigh of pure relief when I realized I wasn't late.
And then realized my ass was early.
Robyn had asked me to come in early because a new game released and other Gamestop's and stores that sold games in the area were going to have lines everywhere.
I guess they were serious about their shit.
I groaned as I decided to walk up the escalator. I worked on the 2nd floor of the mall. It was 8am.
None of the stores were really open yet, but the mall was still open to customers. I waved at the old ladies who always speed walk around here before it gets busy.
I sighed as I walked to the store that I worked out, Gamestop. My friends Robyn and Aubrey work there too, we were the only ones who worked there besides the people that came in on the weekends to work. My hours rarely changed so I was glad for that.
The gate was half open, and I banged a little hurting my knuckle. I sighed and rolled my eyes realizing Robyns deaf ass probably ain't here nothing. "Rih! I'm here!" Robyn was kinda the manager I guess. I mean, she was the one who had the key.
The gate then revealed Robyn who pulled it up for me to let me in.
She looked at me before grinning.
"I'm so happy you made it here safely my love." She said bowing.
"Cut the shit Robyn I'm already here no need to get on your knees and beg me again."I said pushing her and walking past I heard her cackle from behind me.
"Good because I ain't good at like pretending I give a fuck." She said from behind me.
"I'm sure you won't be tired when your tall glass of caramel is here." She said pointing to the store across of us which was still closed. I did get here extra early today.
"Rih shut up." I said setting my bag down in the back room. I usually wasn't this mean or mean at all for that matter. Me and Rih were close and she knew I never met anything by telling her to shut up. Hell, she did the same thing to me.
"Yeah, yeah. Ya know I never see why you don't just do this thing called socializing for once in your miserable sad virgin life." She said playing with the box of games we were going to have to stock soon. She pulled one out and looked in disgust.
"People really play this shit? The original one was better." She said placing it back in the box.
I perked up when it registered what she had said.
"Hey!" I said grabbing her attention.
"I'm not gay, and I'm not a virgin and my life isn't sad and miserable!" I said placing my hands on her hips and she bursted out laughing.
"No bitch that works at Gamestop, wears pokémon shirts, and is drowning in student debt Isnt gay sad miserable or a virgin." She had hopping off the back room counter and taking the box of games with her.
I rolled my eyes, because she did those exact same things minus the pokémon shirt part.
I thought it was cute okay?
I left the backroom and looked over at the store across from us. Victoria Secret. And I ended up seeing her.
I would assume she was the manager there. She was always the one that opened the gate. She dropped her purse that was hanging on her shoulder and opened the gate. She looked flawless as ever.
