Why is everything that is bad, not good?

I breathe in another puff. UIm not making any sense.

I felt so empty. Like a crushed wine glass, I couldn't be put together again.

I let out a puff of smoke out of my mouth. My mind was racing before but now it was all good.

I stub the end of my cigarette into the top of the bin and start to walk away. I felt all eyes on me. I'm exposed.

I rub my eyes, smearing more of my dark makeup. I will never fit in.

I stumble into the supermarket and start to search for the things I needed. In the corner of the shop lay my items. What I needed consisted of water, ready-meals and breath mints. I grab them hastily as I could already feel the burning sensation of being stared at. I turn my a head a little to see a man in his thirty- forties in a wrinkled business suit, staring at me. Potential customer. I smirked him and give a small wink, maybe I could persuade him to go to our services for "help" to his marriage.

I walk quickly all the way to the front and open my wallet to pay for my items.

The girl cashier gives me an unimpressed look and smirks as if she is trying to say I am better than you.

I reach for the £10 out of my bag and hand it to the cashier. With a glare she handed me my change and items.

"Have a nice day and hope you will please someone else." she said with a grin.

I backed away trying to hide the hurt on my face hidden. I walk out of the stuffy store and felt the nice cold air whip against my face.

I hastily pull out my phone and call Jes. The phone rings twice and she answers
"Heyyy, where are you? Work starts in like two minutes. You know that night is the best time to earn some cash. No one comes in the day." Jes yells into the phone.
"I know I'll be there in a bit. I just had to pick up something's at the store-"

"Does it sound like I care? Get your ass over here before the boss gets mad. Bye." She rudely interrupts me.

She hangs up.

"Bye"
