Cora's Pov
"For Fuck's sake, let's go, Cora!" Brianna complained while throwing her head on my counter.
I looked up at her and sighed. "No Bri, I have tests to mark," I told her and got back to checking the papers. She can be a extremely pushy at times. She was not used to people denying her things.
"You can do it later, it's not like the kids are gonna sue you for marking the tests late." She slammed her hands on the counter.
"Why don't you go with someone else today? I promise, I'll go with you next week" I huffed.
"Because you are my best friend, duh!" She bounced her eyebrows
"I'm busy," I ignored her and tried to concentrate on marking the test.
She rolled her eyes "See, I told you not to become a teacher, look how boring you've become."
I put down the papers on the counter and stared at her "Seriously? Like seriously?"
"I'm fucking serious, we used to go to the bar every night before you started working as a teacher, we used to be together every second, we used to share everything, My house was like your second home....and you barely even text me, and when I ask you to hang out with me, suddenly you have work to do!" She exclaimed with her eyebrows reaching the top of her head.
So overdramatic, we are adults now. I've told her millions of times in the past years that we're not teenagers anymore. We're grown adults with responsibilitues, we can't act so recklessly anymore but she just doesn't get it. I can't blame her honestly, she has taken over her family business, even if she does something wrong no one can point a finger at her cause she is the boss. She would never have to face the consequences of her actions.
But I would have to.
I have already wasted enough time in the idiocy of youth. I graduated from high school at twenty-one because I was more interested in inserting my tongue down people's throats rather than studying. I was the hottest and most popular girl in school, not exaggerating it by any means. I've had tons of boys begging on their knees for a chance but I was a little more interested in their girlfriends. I liked boys but girls did it more for me.
Never have anyone ever said no to me whoever I've flirted with was already willing to take me into their beds. It's something I've always found awfully strange.
I had no plans to continue my education after high school. But when I fell in love, and my heart broke. It got me back on track, maturity hit me up and I left all the stupidity behind. I joined a university soon after my breakup.
After getting my degree, I started working as an English teacher and as much as I love English and teaching it, the kids annoy me to the point where I no longer want to teach English. Rather I wish slam to the book into their heads. I can't do that, however, I can surely make their life miserable. It's a fun, safe and undercover way to get back at them.
If you showed this version of me to someone of my past they would deny the fact of me being Cora. "Hello, You there?" I snapped out of my thoughts. "Okay, Geez, I am coming with you happy?"
She bounced her eyebrows and said with an eye roll "Good,"
I hummed and said "Now, let's go and pick clothes for me" I pulled her hands and dragged her upstairs with me to my room.
I opened my wardrobe and picked a pair of skinny torn jeans and white t-shirts along with a black jacket. I got into the toilet and changed into them. "How do I look," I said as I showed myself to Brianna.
She looked me up and down then crunches her nose. "Meh, Basic"
I sighed and stood in front of my wardrobe. "How about skinny jeans and a sports bra with a jacket?" I said loud enough for her to hear. "Nope," she replied immediately.
