Nina Wingston P.O.V
"Don't worry Mr. Rodriguez, I'll have your station wagon ready by next week. Even though she's a bit rusty, this lady is not ready to give up her tires." I said happily.
"Aye, Gracias Nina! I don't know how I can get another car with my atrocious budget." He sighed in relief. I work at a mechanic shop in Reno, Nevada. Pretty small town next to Jasper. Everyone here knows everything about everyone. No rumor gets unheard here. That's how small the town is. The biggest news we ever heard was when Mr. Rogers, the town's most lovable old geezer, cheated on his wife, with Sandra Belle, the owner of a popular bakery. Sometimes I wonder if my life can get a little exciting. It's not that I'm not happy being a mechanic for a dad's mechanic shop, it's just sometimes it can get a little bland in our daily lives.
"Nina?" I snap my thoughts back into reality. Dam! I zoned for a bit. Concentrate Nina, you need the extra money for college, member? Sigh.
"Sorry, Mr. Rodriguez. And like I said, when I'm done with her, she'll look like she came out the dealer, itself." I happily exclaimed. He gave me his keys and bid farewell.
"Bye, Nina. I'm glad I trusted someone in good hands." He happily exclaimed and left. Ok, time to get started. I quickly got my work gloves, special goggles to protect my eyes, zipped up my dark jumpsuit, picked up my dirty blonde hair into a pony tail and put a bandana over my hair so no oil would end up on it. I checked the time on my wristwatch, 8:58 pm. Sigh time to close the shop. I walked over the front door of the mechanic shop and locked it. I turned my back until-
"BANG! RAAAWRR!!"
"AHHHH" I yelled. I stumbled backwards, landing on my butt. Ow. I looked up to see who the jerk that scared the crap out of me. The person had a Jason mask on. Sigh, no. Not now. I got up slowly, walked up to the door and unlocked it.
"What do you want Sasha? I don't have time for your crap! Can't you see that I'm busy?" I harshly asked. Sasha removed his mask and gave his signature sly smirk. "Heh heh, can't handle a little scare?" He teased. He leaned on the door frame and whispered, "Or would you rather have me, make you scream?" I pushed him away from me as far as possible. Can he stop trying to put the moves on me? My face started to feel warm and tingly. I started to feel my heart, beat faster and faster. I quickly told myself to "forget, . .forget". I started to breath slower and have calmer thoughts to forget.
I sighed and said, "Look, what we had. . . it's gone, done, a relationship that won't ever happen again. So please, I would like for you to leave." I stated bluntly. As soon as I finished my sentence, his smirked quickly disappeared and had a more serious attitude.
"Nina. . .just, please hear me out. I admit it, was stupid of me to do that, but she was nothing to me. . . you know you're the only girl I care about." He said.
"If I was the only girl you cared about then why did you sleep with her, huh?" I snarled. He was about to reply until I cut him off.
"You know what, I don't even know why we are still discussing this, if this happened over a year ago?" I asked myself. "Just, get out. ."
"But, Nin-"
"I SAID LEAVE!" I screamed. We stood there in silence for a short amount of time. I had my back to him, because I really didn't want to face him. Took a while but, throughout the silence, the sound of a front door opening and closing, echoed through the mechanic shop. The moment he left, I let out my breath. I subconsciously held my breath in; maybe cause of the tension in the air. After a few minutes for me to regain my composure, I walked through the mech shop and headed to the back where Mr. Rodriguez's station wagon was parked. I grabbed my tools and started to get to work.

Action"But dad, You can't be serious?! Your staying for another few days!" I yelled through the phone. "I know, sweetie and I'm very sorry. I promise I'll be back in a few days. Just watch over the shop a little longer, ok?" He said. I was frustrated, but...
