(Daria POV) (^^Syna In Media^^)
"Hi how may I help you?"
"Let me speak to your manager!"
"Ok ma'am just give me a second.."
I sighed as I went to the back of the store to get my manager for I don't know how many times.
"Come in"
I could hear the aggression in the voice.
"Another customer huh? Ugh I'm on my way out."
I didn't even have to utter a word and he already knew the issue. That should give him the hint to shut this shit place down. I finally decided to wind down and settle within myself. Sade has provided for me since we've been together and I finally wanted to get my own money and to work hard to get it.
"He'll be with you in a moment."
She snarled at me, but I ignored it. This business had nothing to do with me I was just a work assistant. I started working here at a thrift store... and I don't understand why people are mad at the items they picked. I mean before I just picked anything and bought it I'd examine it. And it's not my fault people donate bullshit. Mr. Harley came from out the back and went to assist the woman. He was calm but she was rather... fussy.
"I have several holes in this shirt sir! All I want is my money back and I'll do you a favor and throw this garbage away!"
He looked so tired. I didn't want to bud in, but he's been dealing with this all day. I feel it's maybe my turn to step in and deal with it for once. I went and walked back over to the woman.
"Ma'am as you can see here on your (clears throat) receipt ... in bold.. largely... at the top AND bottom says and I quote.. no refunds under any circumstances. The reason we say this is because we have our items hung out on a variety of shelves. We give you an unlimited amount of time to examine and feel through the clothing, so with you coming back here and complaining on something that's on your behalf has nothing to do with us. I want you to have a wonderful rest of your day!"
After that Mr. Harley and I took that as our opportunity to walk away and handle other business. Eventually she realized we weren't coming back to assist her so she left and.. oh look at that she took her shirt back.
I finally got back to the house, and stripped free from my clothes. I didn't have to wear a uniform there, but I did bundle up because it was starting to get cold out and I don't know why Mr. Harley won't just turn the heat on just a tad bit. It's been about maybe 3 weeks since I've been here chilling by myself, well Sade companies me here and there, but we're still having our distance. She's been acting happier than ever, understandable since she got the good news on their gym.
I took my shower for the day and cozied up in the bed. I got on my phone and was deciding if I wanted to order groceries to the house. It was still early so I was gonna call Sade and have us go shopping for the fridge.
(phone ringing....)
"Hey De"
"Hey, how are you. What are you doing?"
"I'm fine, laying in bed. What are yoouuu doing?"
"Same. Were you up to grocery shop?"
"Sure. I'm already dressed so I'll be on my way in a little bit."
"Ok, see you in a bit."
I got up and got dressed. I put on something casual, yet cute. Something was telling me the grocery store wasn't the only stop we were taking.
Shortly after getting dressed, I heard a car horn and knew exactly who it was. I grabbed my bag and keys and left the house. I knew to put on presentable.. or atleast some decent clothing because she was taking me out for some lunch. We pulled up to Olive Garden, we wasn't going anywhere too fancy considering the fact we just wanted a quick sit down.
"So, how's work?"
"It's good, I go in tomorrow morning until 5"
"Ahh, I'm ready to start back working lowkey. I've been so bored at the house doing nothing."
"Yeah that was me too, but instead alone. Well no I'm sorry I don't mean to say it like that it's just.. I'm getting adjusted to enjoying my own presence."
"Yeah I understand. I know eventually Syna and I may move out and have our own separate homes."
"Really? I would've never thought."
"I know we're close, but we're getting old. I know she wants to settle down and eventually have kids, me too though. Just not.. now."
"Ahh yeah I understand."
Shortly after conversing, a waiter came and took our orders. We already knew what we wanted to eat, pasta <.< , because who doesn't love pasta?
"Hey ima run to the restroom real fast. I lowkey been holding it since I picked you up." she lowly whispered, causing me to laugh.
"You're goofy, why you didn't go when we first came in?"
"It had went away."
She left to go to the bathroom, but she left her phone. I know we're "on a break", but the thought of her talking to other females has crossed my mind maybe once or twice. I grabbed her phone and typed in the password. It was the same as when we were together. I went to messages, feeling childish for this act. I saw a text from Soya.
"You're so silly.. goodnight."
I didn't really know of Soya except when Sade said she helped approve their building for the gym. Isn't she supposed to be professional? I didn't want to get too into my head so I sat her phone down.. and perfect timing as I saw Sade come out from the corner and towards our table.
"How was your pee?"
"Magnificent!"
[After Dinner and Grocery]
"Hey I wanted to ask you something..?"
"Yeah wassup."
Sade and I were laying on my bed on our phones. I thought since it was getting late and me knowing she wasn't staying the night tonight that I wanted to have this conversation face to face.
"So who is Soya again?"
"Oh, she's the woman who helped us tour and get approved for our gym building. Like a manager or something. I honestly forgot what it was called. Why wassup?"
"So you guys text daily?"
"Eh I wouldn't say daily. Here and there when we bring up ideas on our building. Why what's bothering you? You're like beating around the bush."
"I just.. felt a way about Soya."
"Why? She isn't really any of your business honestly. And I don't mean that in a mean way please don't take it any type of way.. but it's really nothing. And as of right now, we're not really together you know. She was just someone who's supportive of our business and wants to help. Are you not happy that someone else cares?"
"I-"
"Ima hit you up later. I feel kinda offended."
"Hey I didn't mean it that way, honestly I didn't! You know how I am when it comes to other females..."
"Well you must've been going through my phone. What'd you see, goodnight? You don't like that she told me goodnight? Huh?"
She sounded pretty upset, honestly I don't blame her. I just felt so stupid.
"Im sorry..."
"I thought we were growing, Daria. What's happening?"
"I... I couldn't help myself it was like a natural instinct."
"Ight ima just hit you up later."
