Unkind.

Just unkind.

So unkind.

That was what I'd call Ruslan.

"You get as many fucking hours I put you on"
                

                  "Don't call me again"

Ruslan's words exactly. All I wanted was to go on different days and then get more hours but of course, I couldn't even get that. I memorized my dad's whole schedule just so I could be clear and safe. He gambles Thursdays and Saturdays, he goes to connections on Fridays to get drugs like nicotine,  edibles, weed, and other supplements he says "The doctor prescribed to him"  and on Monday, Tuesday Wednesday he goes to the club.

During the Three days, I worked.

If he knew I was working he would probably go insane and take all the money that I worked for the only thing is.

I haven't been paid yet.

But it's ok because I've only worked for two days so I shouldn't expect money yet. I do however have hopes to get experience with the outside world that I was being kept from.

I have another day at work Friday night because of what happened the other night. One of the so-called Busiest days. I was told this by Zara. She even recommended me those days but I didn't choose it. That day was tomorrow. She also told me that's when Ruslan is around. So maybe I could talk to him about changing my schedule.

I get up from my desk and walk over to the door. I'm hungry and my stomach is grumbling like crazy.

I  walk down the dark hallway. My dad wasn't here so I should be safe from him for a while until he comes back. I run down the creaky steps and walk over to the kitchen. I open the fridge and see nothing but beers I try moving the beers out of the way to find something, when I finally see.

A big jar filled with brownies

I rush over to the plates and store three of them on the plate. It was like an Angel came to the rescue.

A Brownie Angel

I grab a spoon and rush over to a seat. I take my first spoonful and put it in my mouth with hesitation, I was so hungry since I got to work and I never had money to buy food because I give it to all the taxi drivers to get to work.

I need a car.

And money.

Obviously

I take the spoon again and dig into the chocolate-chipped brownie again and put it back in my mouth. It was so delicious and I couldn't help myself. I lick the spoon clean until it's sparkly silver. I was fighting the urge to take another one but I remember I have to go to sleep for work in the morning.

I try to jump off the chair on the island in the kitchen but, I feel so dizzy that I almost fell off. I'm so silly. I catch my balance and walk over to drop the plates in the sink.

I start to skip back up to my room when I come up with the greatest idea.

I'm going to text Ruslan like I said I would about my schedule and confront him about his attitude.

I skip back up the stairs until I get to my room. I'm so brilliant

I close my door and jump down to my bed and grab my phone. I swipe until I find my messaging app. I click it and spot Ruslan's contact immediately. I didn't have lots of contacts. It was only Father, Daphne then
