"Hey Cher...wake up...Cher..." Harry whispered to me and I feel the cold fingers brush at my cheek.
"Harry just 5 more minutes." I reply and bury deeper into my pillow.
"Cher sorry to disappointed you but I snooze your alarm 5 times already and now it only 1 hour before work start."
"What??" I rush out from bed and went to shower and get ready. Every time I get dress he will close his eyes and I know he been the gentlemen. "Why you don't wake me up sooner?"
"You sleeping so peacefully and I don't feel the need to wake you up so early when you need the rest. I'm sorry."
"It's okay. We still can make it on time." I grab my bag and he follows me from behind. I look back at him and he just shrugs his shoulder.
"I forget I bring you to work today." I lock the door and start the car. He already gets my breakfast ready just a simple sandwiches and milk.
We reach at work in no time. Lucky the traffic is not that bad. I shoved my bag in the locker. I can't keep starring at Harry because I don't want people to know. I just pretend him not there and act normal but still I can't keep from not starring at him.
Nothing special happen today just as the normal everyday task at work. We all do our work and served the customers. Harry looks so happy to be out from the house. I talk to him in the secret storeroom and when there is nobody.
"Hey Sarah you want to come with me to the toilet?" I called Sarah when I walk over to the cashier.
"Yeah I want to go too. Wait for me Cher." She runs behind me and of course Harry follows me too.
We walk to the washroom that is another side of the mall. We talk and laugh and I can't help to glance at Harry by my side.
"Cher sorry I disturb you but who you see? I can't help to see that you glance at someone beside you and smile and there is no one beside you."
"Oh you know my imaginary friend that I been talking about?"
"Yup a guy name Harry."
"Yeah he is here with me. He wants to come with me at work. I told him so many times no but he insists so today is the day."
"Hi Harry...I'm Sarah...I can't see you but I glad you make her happy."
"Thanks Sarah. I know that." He replying and smirk on his face.
"Well Sarah he says thanks back." I told her and we went to the washroom and Harry stay outside.
After we finish we head back to the shop and suddenly Harry stop me. I stop Sarah. "What is it?"
"Something is not good."
"What?"
"Someone is making trouble at the shop. You can't go in."
"My friends are still inside. I need to save them."I said to Harry and start to run to the shop and of course Harry stop me and it look like I play with myself alone.
"I need to save you."He replied.
"But I can't let them die... not like that...I can't..."
"Cher what happen? Please tell me ...what happen to them? Why can't we go back?" Sarah asks me and she looks scary and holds my hand.
"Harry said that it not safe for us."I told Sarah and we both now scares so much and we don't now what should we be doing.
"What is going on?" ask Sarah.
"I don't know." I replied back to her.
"I go to find out and when it safe I call you in." said Harry and look back at me.
"Be safe." I said to him. I don't know why I say that not that everybody can see him.
"Don't worry no one can see me." He replied and I smile and I holds Sarah hands as we waited.
"Harry went to check what happen we just stay here." I told to Sarah and we both wait. It almost closing time and it not so many people. Why these guys come to our shop? Lucky Sarah and I are out from the store. Sarah is small and I feel the need to protect her. She so bubly and always make me laugh or smile. It so much fun when she is around.
We watch as the policemen enter the store and the paramedic rush in to the crime scene. Some of the injured in the store have been take out. Sarah and I dare not move from the spot until I saw Harry coming back to us and we entered the shop to find our friends. Some of the police been asking us too many question and with our uniform they know we working at the store and I told them I need to find my friends first. Harry shows us where they hide one of our secret storeroom. I knock on the door 3 times. There a few policemen follow us and when someone knocks back and they open the door it was the best feeling ever. They survived.
'I'm so glad I found you guys. I worried sick."
"Yup yup yup. Cher here nonstop asking where you guys are? Where you guys hiding? Are you guys save?" say Sarah.
"Wait a second how you both know that we hide here?"
"Cher's imaginary friend of course. He is the one that tell her that you guys are behind this door." Replied Sarah. We all hugs each others.
"Oh that well thanks to him." Say Jamie.
They been asked a lot of question by the police and the paramedic make sure they all okay. The store is chaos. There bloods and body. Some of our colleagues not survived the attack. Lucky my friend s act fast. After Sarah and I went out for toilet break few minutes after that the masks men enter the shop close the shutter and start to attack. They take all the money and break the safe at the cash room. Lucky one of the staff manage to press the emergency button and it alert the police station.
