Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep Beep
I woke up to the sound of my cellphone alarm. I groaned as I saw the hour on my cellphone´s screen. Geez what was that? I jumped from my bed as I saw the Les Mis poster on the wall. Argh it was just the poster. Isabelle Allen´s big blue eyes. I should have bought the pther one with the barricade and Aaron Tveit as Enjolras on top of it. I went to the bathroom to take a quick shower.
´´ Awwww why!" I said when the cold water falled on top of me making me shiver. I finished quickly and went fast to my bedroom. I dressed with dark blue skinny jeans, a flowery top and a pair of golden flats.
To my surprise, Marie was sitting on the couch watchin The Big Bang Theory. "Marie, why are you awake?" I asked
"Well, I'm not used to this place so I can't sleep, or maybe I have jetlack. I dunno." she said finishing with a loud yawn.
"Okay, see you later" I said grabbing my purse. I went out of our door and walked towards the elevator. I pressed the buttons and checked myself at the mirror. I had a quick check on my purse too: curriculum, gum and cellphone. Well, those were the most important.
The streets are a bit lonely because it's pretty early. "Taxi, taxi!" I called. I know it would be cheaper to go on a big red bus, but they scareme. Since the accident.
The black car stopped infront of me. A ginger man, maybe forty, was driving the car. "Where to?" he asked
"Um, to the westfield mall"
"That's two pounds" I nodded my head and stared at the window. The beautiful tall boildings, the night clubs, big red buses everywhere the Big Ben. Am I dreaming?
"Well young lady, we're here"
"Thank you sir" I said handing him the money. The mall was huge. The corridors were a little empty, but I know that later this would be very crouded. The big stores like macy's and forever 21 were opening and a big line was forming at starbucks.
I took out a post-it from my purse were I wrote the adress. I walked like for five minutes watching everything in amazement. The cellphone accesories store wasn't that big. It had counters full of colorful covers and cellphone models from all kinds.
"Can I help you" A girl with blue eyes and blond hair asked.
"Oh, I'm here for the new employees request. Do you need my curriculum?"
"Nope. You're in"
"What? You don't even know my name"
"Okay.. Hi my name is Claire, what's yours" she said sarcasticaly
"I'm Zena, thanks for asking" I answered back.
"Come here, let me give you the final information. Tell me, what's your shirt size"
"Small"
"Yeah, predictable, with that tiny waist" Yes, my tine waist. People always points that out since I entered to highschool. Um, excuse me young lady, but do you have anorexia? People say that I should be grateful, but I don't know how to feel about it.
"Ha ha" For Loki's sake this woman is so sarcastic and with that accent. I'll be dead after a day working with that slut.
"Your shirt should be ready by friday. Then you start next morning. I'll train you." Like if I was a dog.
"Hmm you have this accent. I know you aren't british, but from where?"
"From Texas, in America"
"Yeah, your voice sounds kinda sharpie." Okay, I want to kill this woman.
"hehe Thanks" I said sarcasticaly.
"Then, tell me about yourself.. Are you at college?"
"Yes, I'm studing law. You?"
"Yes, I'm with systems engineering"
"Cool, so you work with robots, you know, futuristic stuff"
"Mhmm" she said fixing some covers
"And, are you single?" she asked
"I don't think that's an appropiate question for someone you met five minutes ago"
"Just trying to make conversation.... "
"I have to go. I agreed to see my roommate for lunch" I lied. I just wanrt to get out of here.
"Okay, remember to come on friday to pick your shirt"
"I will" I said leaving. Finally I can breath. God, she was annoying. I took another taxy back home. I remembered thgat I locked the door this morning so I seartched in my messy purse. Keys, keys, keys where are you hiding. I pulled them out and proceeded to open the door. Marie was asleep on the couch with the tv on.
"We haven't lived here not even for a day and we are asting enetrgy like crazies." I said to myself annoyed
"Marie wake up now!!!!"
"Woah what's the matter?" She said stretching
"You left the tv on"
"Oh sorry!! Seriously I'm really breally sorry, I have jetlack"
"Mhmm"
"how was the interview?"
"Quick. Since, I was the only one I got the job."
"Graet, and your coworkers? Boys? Hot?" she said miving her brows.
"Nope, just an annoying girl like two years older than us?"
"Why? What she did?"
"It is just that she is so sarcastic and temperamental"
"She reminds me of somebody..."
"Shut up"
"Yes she is. Look, you're easy to get cranky and sometimes way too sarcastic. Maybe you don't like her because she's just like you! That's why your personalities clash?"
"And when you became psycologyst?"
"You see? There it is!" she yawned "Now let me go back to sleep" she said closing her eyes
"In your bedroom, you couch potato!"
"Okaaaaay"
"Haha I should take a nap too. I woke up pretty early this morning" I walked to my bed room and I plopped on my bed like a potato.
