Its was always ruff at home when I was a kid, my parents were always constantly fighting. At one point my mom had enough so she left my 3 year old self with my dad. She lost all contact with us and as I heard she got remarried a year later and had another kid. As much as it hurts everything's much better now, my dad also got remarried two years later to my stepmom Melissa and had my little brother Charles or as we call him Charlie whos 11. I will always consider Melissa as my real mom rather than her being my step mom. Right now I find myself working at a local cafe called Rosemary Cafe in my town other than going to school of course which we're out of right now.
My coworker Shawn greeted me with his usual sarcastic self as he saw me, "Hey Sofia your in early today, considering you're always so damn late."
I scoffed and rolled my eyes as I smacked the side of his head, "Oh shut up you big baby I'm not always in late."
"Mhm keep telling yourself that hunny."
I swear that kid he never shuts up, as much as I love him he makes me want to punch him in the face half the time.
A little information on him his names Shawn Mendes (he's not famous) , hes 16 like me and he moved here about two years ago with his parents and sister. We met when he came in here looking for a job and ever since then we've been best friends. He's single as shit like me which is quite sad, I mean he had a girlfriend but they broke up because he moved here to Nevada.
As usual I stood at the cash register and Shawn at the one beside me waiting for people to come in. Shawn we occupied with a costumer when another came in and came to me.
"Hello ma'm what could I get for you?"
Somehow I got distracted when I saw a guy looking at me from outside maybe 16 or 18 the in between he was smoking and was wearing some black ray bans. We made eye contact for like 5 seconds and then he walked away as if nothing had happened. Oh shit the order.
"I'm so sorry ma'm I-I got distracted."
"Its okay sweetie it happens."
I could feel my face burning this usually doesn't happen to me.
"I'd like a medium iced coffee, with sugar added in please."
"Okay that'll be 3 dollars and 58 cents."
I went to the back and made her coffee then gave it to her.
"Thank you have a great day."
"You too."
My shift was almost over so thank the lord, but then little annoying Shawn's like "Yo Sophie what happened, that's like the first time you've done that, are you high on weed again or something?"
"Oh my gosh Shawn shut up I don't know what happened there was this guy outside looking at me and I got distracted also what the hell Shawn I don't do weed."
"Ooo is Sophie getting stalked by a pedophille."
I laughed "oh my gosh you're just too much and he wasn't a pedophille at least I don't think so because he wasn't that old he was like 16 or 18." And with that he shut up. Thirty minutes later both our shifts ended it was Saturday so we worked from 8 when the shop opened to 3 basically we work half a day there.
"Bye Shawn see you tomorrow," I said as I got into my car "sadly too." I muttered to myself
"HEY I heard that, you're so mean to me, but see you tomorrow!"
