"𝗶'𝗺 𝘀𝗼 𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝗺𝘆𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳, 𝗶'𝗱 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗲, 𝗶'𝗱 𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗲. 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲, 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗲."- 𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗮 𝗿𝗼𝗱𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗼.the hot water poured on my skin as i tried to wash todays events away. i let it run down my face as i took deep breaths. i love hot showers, to me it feels like a warm hug. i quickly got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body.
i checked the time on my phone to see if my manager had texted me about the raise request i had put in. i wasn't wealthy. i was going to college in portugal on a scholarship. it only covered half though , so i had to pay the rest.
i did my hair in a slick back ponytail, quickly getting into my work outfit. i worked at a small cafe and for the most part it was nice. the pay was decent, and i liked everyone there. i had to pay for college somehow, so working a job wasn't that hard.
i had jobs of course before this. so it never was difficult to have school work done. it just drained the life out of me. i never had time to go to parties or make new friends. i didn't mind though, i needed to be on top of my work.
it would pay off because i'm majoring in business, so sooner or later i'd be working and making a shit ton of money. i walked out my small apartment, got in a taxi and left for work. i had lived here for about two years now.
i did live in the college dorms as a freshmen, but i'm a junior now so i got my own place. i payed the taxi driver and tipped me. personally tips go a long way. i walked into the cafe and clocked in. i started serving customers.
not many people know me that go to college. most people think i'm a tourist simply working this job for fun. i wish i was. i got to table with about 5 girls at it. they all looked absolutely gorgeous. i started taking there orders when a blonde one starts laughing. i look up at her to see what was going on and she gave me a dirty look.
i had my fair share of rude customers so this didn't phase me. teenagers were especially the worst, those kids do not have manners. she glanced up at me again and pointed at my shirt and laughed. i took there orders and walked away to get there food.
sometimes i never understood why people acted like that. snobby and rich is worse than being nice and poor. i walked back to the table and smiled at the blonde haired girl. she had only ordered a lemonade, so i handed it to her.
as i was walking away i felt a cold liquid spill on top of me. it was her lemonade. i looked right back at her and flipped her off. in that moment i didn't care what i did, she deserved it. i walked off before i could do anything else.
as i walked into the bathroom i broke down. tears and lemonade were mixing and made my eyes burn. a girl who looked about in her late 20s walked in. she quickly rushed over and helped me clean myself up.
"𝗶'𝗺 𝗷𝗮𝘀𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗲." she said sticking her hand out. i glanced up at her very quickly, she was very beautiful. her skin was a chocolate brown and she had the prettiest curls ever. "𝗶'𝗺 𝗮𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶." i said, still shocked about the fact that she even helped me.
i realized that she was one of the girls that was with the bitch who poured lemonade on me. the nerve this girl had trying to be nice. she saw that i was getting angry and she quickly said, "𝗶'𝗺 𝘀𝗼𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂, 𝗻𝗼 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁."
she gave me a very sincere look. i smiled back at her. i didn't deserve that but i wasn't about to beat jasmine up for something another person did. she looked at me and said "𝗶'𝗺 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗮𝗴𝘂𝗶, 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗶 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿?"
i didn't even know who the hell this magui bitch was. i think it was the girl who threw lemonade one me. "𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗺𝘆 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴." i said smiling.
she handed me her phone and i put my number in. we said our good byes. i quickly got back to working. i only had a hour left of my shift and i was working the counter now. i texted my boss about the incident before that girl could tell her.
the hour passed by quickly and i clocked out. once i was home i took a shower again. usually i wouldn't have took another one but considering that i got lemonade poured on me, i did. as i was doing my skincare i kept thinking about how this could have been a good thing.
i think me and jasmine are gonna be very good friends.
