"Will you be able to come to your own shop, be an owner, sell your food, help the customer and your employees, and NOT RUN OFF?" EEE-
"So, Uhm..." I tried to make an excuse.
"You see..." What the fuck do I tell her?
"It's been four weeks since you've come from the wedding. The last time you visited, WHICH WAS THE DAY BEFORE THE WEDDING BECAUSE APPARENTLY YOU COULDN'T HANDLE THE STRESS!"
"You make a real good point.."
"JOELL,"
"Oops, internet issues!"
"I'm literally in your building, face-to-face, what internet issues?" Apparently, I've gotten really close to Mena ever since a while ago, when her crazy son of a bitch ex of hers was officially turned in to the police for domestic violence: emotional, physical, and psychological abuse, threats: she was being warned if she didn't do something, there would've been consciouses and child endearment: putting cute potato through hell and attempted to harm her.
It was a big case going on because I was falsely attempted of cyber-bullying but there was no evidence of that and that the replies sent to him were his ex's act of self-defense to get herself out of it one way or another she can.
Despite that, the case on him was stronger which backfired despite the attempts to free himself, or shit, so bitch is going to be fuel in prison, sucker of a nipper!
"Joell?" I snap back to reality and face the horrifying stare, no wonder I don't get to hang around Aima as much! Aunt-ma is truly to be afraid of.
"I'm sorry, Mena-" I stand up, back to her ---
"You don't act so," Her arms crossed, I just still.
"Is it so busy? Do they need so much help?" I ask, facing her once more, she shakes her head.
"We just need you back, Joell. You can't stick to us like glue, appear for one day looking so stressed like the Earth is going to flatten itself, and then disappear for a few months with no contacts whatsoever!" I winched.
"I'll come back," I nod along her,
"IF, I get to have Aima, my cute potato, visiting more often." With that jerk in jail, cute potato should have more freedom outdoor, especially with me, considering...Nevermind, I wasn't home those few weeks. Ahem.
"Aren't things in a better situation?" I need her to agree!
"With that boyfriend of yours treating you two like queens with every chance he gets?" I smirk willingly.
"H-How did you know?!" Busted!
"You were gone for weeks!"
"Have you checked yourself out?" I sit next to her,
"You're so much less stricter, more on ease, and that's a new outfit you've on, a different taste and a new smell! You-" I boop her nose, sitting down next to her at the same time-
"Are a rare case for trying out new things. Ryi really became your sun after the rain. " Her face literally almost explores with how red it's shading. She's shaking her head at the floor like it'll make her bangs longer and hide her face.
"I like the change," I smile at her statement.
"Me too, I like the change."
"Joell, we need more coffee beans in here!" I run into the storage room and back in a flash.
"Joell, the icing spilled!" I head into the customer's kitchen and help clean it up as flashy new.
