"Jaelin, did you fill the strawberry icecream container?" My manager, Joseph yelled from his office"Yes" I yelled back and scooped up some vanilla icecream and gave it to a custom
The customer handed me $3 dollars and left just as Joseph came out his office holding his clip board and pen
He put the clipboard in front of me and let out a sigh
"Jae, you never told me why you weren't here for 2 days" he raised his eyebrow up
"I was sick" I looked at the clipboard noticing It had a small green paper attached on it
"Jae.. I think maybe I should let you go, you've been out of it lately" he looked at his clipboard as well
I shot my head up "w-what? No no! I promise I'll do better . I have so much on my hands" I begged
I can NOT lose this job. I need the money for the bills, they've been getting worser .
"Alright one more chance . Don't mess it up " he looked me in the eyes
Then all of a sudden my phone started ringing
My stupid phone is gonna blow my chance of keeping this job
The caller ID was sunyoul ..
Joseph and I both looked down at my phone . I gave him a cheeky smiling hopeing he wouldn't get mad
"Turn it off" he looked at my phone one last time and walked away
I guickly answered the phone ready to yell at Sunyoul but he spoke before me
"Are you okay? What are you doing right now?" Sunyoul sounded like if he just awoken
Then I noticed it was 6am in korea . Did he really call me first thing in the morning?
"Y-yea I'm fine, I'm working . Why are you calling me ?"
"Checking up on you" he yawned through the phone
"I told you , you don't have to call me, im fi-" I got cut off by sunyouls stern voice
"I'll check up on you once a day then." Sunyoul then hung up
What the heck?
I pushed my phone inside my bag and left it there until my shift was done
~~
As I was in the bus heading to my next job I couldn't help but think of Sunyoul
We haven't even gave Eachother the next lesson of the tutoring
His English is pretty good though.
The bus came to a stop meaning I have arrived to my next shift at the doughnut house
I jumped off the steps of the bus clutching onto my backpack and opened the heavy metal door in the back to get inside
"Jaelin , welcome. I wish you called me to tell me that you weren't gonna be here for a couple of days" my boss , Janet said monotone looking down at her newspaper
"Sorry Janet, didn't feel so well" I walked to the back and set my stuff aside
I was about to head to the front but then dinging noises started coming from my phone
I stopped in my tracks and pulled my phone out from my bag
'What are you doing now? Are you okay?' -Sunyoul
I shook my head at his clingyness and shoved my phone in my back pocket . I don't want to drag him in my mess
I pulled my apron over my head and put some gloves on . Another ding came from my phone but I ignored it
"Can I have 4 glazed doughnuts"
A customer asked on the other side of the counterThen more dings came
"Sure" I pulled out the rack and put them inside a white bag then handed it to her "that will be $3.75" then 2 more dings came from my phone
She handed me her money with a weird look and walked off
I immediately took my phone out to see messages from Sunyoul
'If you don't reply I'm gonna send jokes'-Sunyoul
'Why don't you play card games in jungles?'-Sunyoul
'Because there's a lot of cheetahs'-Sunyoul
'if you were a cucumber , you'd be a cutecumber'-Sunyoul
'What did the baby corn say to mama corn?'-Sunyoul
'Where's pop corn'-Sunyoul
I started laughing at how corny he was but at the same time adorable
'I'm at work'-jaelin
He replied instantly
'Still? It's been almost 6 hours already' -Sunyoul
'I have more than 1 job Sunyoul. I work 2 shifts and this one just started . I won't be able to message you till 5 more hours' -jaelin
'It will be midnight where you are!'-Sunyoul
'Plus I have to shower and do homework so actually It will end up to be 2am' -jaelin
'What about eating?' -Sunyoul
I didn't know what to message back so I left the conversation there
I started getting back to work, refilling the racks with fresh doughnuts And cleaning the machines to make a new batch
I checked my phone to see how many more hours were left on my shift but saw another message
'Please tell me you eat' -Sunyoul
I sighed
'I'm busy' -jaelin
He replied back within seconds
'Jaelin!' -Sunyoul
I turned my phone off so I wouldn't get distracted
1 more hour
~~
I covered myself with my jacket as I walked down the cold street torward my house
My legs were shaking , scared to see what my mother and her boyfriend or Whatever the hell he is have in store for me today
I checked the mailbox taking out a white envelope that was our bill seeing it went higher this month
"Crap" I mumbled . I shoved the bill in my bag and went inside the house
I saw rob and my mother on the couch holding whisky each looking like they were not only drunk but stoned at the same time
I gave them a disgusted look and went inside my room throwing my jacket on the bed . Why is it so hot in here?
I went back out to the hallway to turn the heater off. It's so damn hot and I don't need the bill any higher
It clicked off and I headed back into my room pulling out my homework out and my pencil until my mom and rob came into my room
"Why'd you turn the heater off" you can tell my mother was drunk by her voice
Rob laughed "little girl is watching out for the bill"
My mother laughed with him Then they both went to my moms room , locking their door
Puzzled with different emotions, I looked down at my homework . I guess they didn't have anything for me today
I'm sorry these chapters are so sad, I just want you guys to get a thought of how tough jaelins life is.
And also, how to pronounce jaelins name is "jay lean"
