Eternal Love

Chapter 2 : the bar

Tw alcohol.

4 days after

Pov Yelena :

It's been 4 days I met Kate, at the first impression she is a good girl, she wants to help the others but she is very clumsy but I guess it's "cute" ? Well, today I have an appointment with my boss for the last mission, so after I took a shower and dressed I walked on the appointment.

I arrived in a little building, lost for the city. I got inside and I walked to the office of my boss.

??? : Miss Belova.
Y : hello.
??? : you have the informations ?
Y : yes boss. I gave her the computer
??? : good job. I'm gonna pay you tomorrow
Y : okay, thank boss.
??? : you can go
Y : goodbye.

After that I came back to my "house", just where I live for the missions in New York.

POV Kate :

message from Mom :
Hey Katie sweetheart, today I have a party, come please, get dress with the beautiful red dress I bought you okay ? See you there at 7pm at the New York Palace Hotel

Kate read the message and exhaled.

She knows I hate party ! And dress ! Arghhh why she's like that. And obviously I'm forced to be there. I love my mom like, she's my mom but sometimes I hate the way she treats me. Anyways I'm not gonna put the dress. A suit is better. Now it's 1pm, I played with Lucky. Lucky, my dog, is like a best friend for me. I think he's the only one who can support me when I need to talk a lot, except Laura. Clint's wife. She is so sweet and so nice I love to talk to her, she's always here to me, Clint too of course he's like a father to me, the father I never had... I don't even know why they treat me like I'm their daughter and their children like I'm their sister. I don't deserve this, in fact for me I deserve nothing. Well anyways! After playing with Lucky I sat down on my sofa and I put on my tv Malcom, I love this sitcom ! It's so funny ! And I need to laugh a little right now and it worked a little, after watched Malcom for 4h I decided to prepared me for this stupid party. I have 2hours to prepare me and be there so I took a shower, I put on my suit and I gave food to lucky after I took my bag and my keys and I left. I have 30 minutes to arrived in walk. After 30 long minutes to walk I finally arrived.

I saw a lot of people, riches people with suit and dress which are worth more than my apartment. I know everyone probably thinking "you're so lucky to be rich, I would have you're life !" Or "omg I wish I had a rich mom ! That's so cool, you're really so lucky !" "I really want you're life" But trust me, you don't. No one really knows my life, I talk about my life to Clint and Laura but they just know what I wanted to say. Everyone says "you speak too much, we know everything about you, you can't stop taking a minute !" Or a lot of things like that. But they don't really know, they don't know about my pass, about how my pass was so complicated to me. But I can't tell anything and anyways I don't want to bother people with my life, a lot of people have a childhood and life worst, I have no right to complain, well, that's what I was taught.

I was lost in my thoughts when I felt a hand on my shoulder, I was surprised.

E : Katieeee you're here !
K : yes mom.
E : but what is this outfit ? I told you to put you're dress !
K : mom you know I don't like dress ! Why you don't listen to me ?! I started to me mad at her because she never listen to me and the fact that I decided how I want to be dressed
E : Kate don't speak to me like that.
K : because you never want to listen to me ! And how I want to be dressed or anything else ! You want to control my life ! But I'm 23 !
E : stop to speak to me like that ! And yes you're a girl so you have to dressed with dress !
K : that's bulshit.
E : if you here to talk me like that you can go !
K : great ! I started to leave and I walked into a bar. I know the bartender, he's a "friend".

??? : Hey Kate, what's up?
K : I don't want to talk, please, just give me a vodka.
??? : oh I see. He poured me my drink

I drink it in one go, I like this feeling, sometimes I need to drink to forget my problems with my mom, I had a few drinks and after I remembered I have to invited Yelena to drink with me. So I decided to text her.

message to Yelena :
"Hi Yelena, it's Kate, do you want to drink with me ?  At the "Bar 54" ? I'm already here."
"Hi Kate ! Okay yeah why not, I'm on my way"

I put my phone down and I started to drink again

??? : Kate I don't want to bother you you should mh.. you know slow down on alcohol
K: no. And someone will join me.
??? : mh.. okay

After 10 minutes Yelena arrived.

Y : Hi Kate she said to me after sitting in the seat next to me.
K : hi Yelena.. how are you ?
Y : I'm good, but you look, very sad and.. so.. drunk.

I laughed nervously while she asked for a drink.

K : nooooo I'm totally sober.
Y : yeah and I'm the American ass.
K : waaaw that's sooooo coooooool
Y : seriously Kate, what's happened to you ? I saw you twice and twice, you were in a bad state
K : well I don't want to talk about it. We can just, drink?
Y : nope, you're too drunk for that. She looks so bad the bartender how many drinks do you gave her??
??? : mhhh... I don't know, as much as she wanted

Yelena looks at him so bad again and she looks at me after.

Y : Kate I'm gonna take you home okay?
K : yes yes..  I put a $50 bill on the counter before to get up and almost fall and then we left.

Yelena and I were walking into my house.

Y : Kate thank you please tell me why you are in this state ?
K : at my home.. please..
Y : okay..

After 35 minutes of walking we arrived and we entered.

K : I go to put my pyjama okay?
Y : okay.

I went in my bedroom, I removed my suit, I changed my underwear, I wore a bra with jogging pants and a sweater before to go down to see Yelena. I sat down on my sofa and Yelena sitting next to me.

Y : so?
K : just.. my mom.. but it's okay.. you can go..
Y : no it's okay, I stay with you.
K : wait- what ? Why ?..
Y : because you're drunk I don't want anything to happen to you.
K : thanks...
Y : tell me. About your mom.
K : I don't want to bother you...
Y : you don't. Speak.
K : my mom always forces me to... go to her parties... and she always wants I dressed with a dress because "a girl can't wear suit".. but I don't like dress so I don't listen her... and I dressed with my suit...
Y : weird, and after ?
K : she... said "what's it's this outfit i told you to put you're dress" so I said I don't like and she never listen me about everything and she started to said I have to stop to talk her like that until the moment she said "if you here to talk me like that you can go !" And then I left, maybe it's nothing to say that but... she never listen to me, my choices, or anything else, anyways I know I'm not the girl of her dreams... I lowered my head looking at my hands with tears in my eyes
Y : I'm really sorry for you Kate.
K : it's okay.. i started to cry a little and Yelena put her hands on my shoulders
Y : I'm really sorry, your mom sounds like a.. bad person after she took me in her arms I was a little bit shocked my I liked the hug.
K : thanks Yelena.. for.. everything..
Y : it's okay

After a few minutes I was so tired, without really realizing it I fell asleep with my head on Yelena's shoulder even if I don't know her well, she looks to be a really good person.
