Love Hurts ~Nene

Emily Pov


Getting up at five in the morning, I got out of bed and headed straight to the bathroom where I showered and brush my teeth. Stepping out of the tub, I grab my towel from off the rack and wrap it around my waist.

Going over to the mirror, I ran my hand through my hair to get it in place as it was all over the place.

Walking inside my room, I plugged in my straightening iron before I went to my closet and took out my black straight dress and put it on along with my stockings.

Going to sit in front of the mirror, I took up the iron and started straightening my hair.

Plugging it out as soon as I was finished with it, I wrapped it up and place it on the floor in the far corner of my room before I made my way back to my closet where I took out a pair of my black six-inch suede heels.

Quickly putting them on, I grabbed my purse and my phone before I ran down the hall to the kitchen where I searched through the cupboard and fridge for something suitable for my mom and I can eat for breakfast.

Opening the cupboard, I saw that it was empty, going over to the fridge I opened it I saw that only water, butter and orange juice was in it.

Taking out the orange juice, I pour some in two glass before I started looking around the kitchen, trying to find something for my mom to eat.

I can't let what happened the last time happen again with her ending up in the hospital. Finding bread, I took out four slices and toast it before placing two slices on separate places and buttered them.

Taking up one of the plates and glass, I walked to my mother's room.

"Hey mom," I greeted her cheerfully. "I know it's not much but this is all we got for now, when I am on lunch I will buy something and bring it to you okay."

"Okay sweetheart have a great day and tell Adam I said hello." Nodding my head, I kissed her goodbye.

Going back inside the kitchen, I hurriedly eat my toast and drank my orange juice before I grabbed my stuff and exited my apartment.

Walking to the bus stop I felt uneasy, it was the same feeling I had experienced a few days ago when I was coming home from work and I honestly didn't like the feeling.

I could feel a pair of eyes drilling a hole in my head and it was causing the hair on the back of my neck to stand up.

Turning around, I started looking around wildly but I couldn't pinpoint exactly who was staring at me.

I was well aware that persons on the street were giving me questioning glances while some were giving me worried looks.

I know I wasn't crazy, I know someone is watching me and I don't know who and why.

Getting on the bus that had arrived five minutes after I had arrived at the bus stop, I climbed aboard and paid my fair.

Sitting down, I watched the houses, persons and building pass by.

Arriving at my stop, I got off and stood right in front of the enormous building that is as tall as a skyscraper and his made of glass and the words Jacob Enterprises printed at the front in black and was written in bold.

Looking at the time I saw that I was thirty minutes early. Walking through the doors, I went right up to the receptionist.

"Hello good morning, I am here to see Mr. Jacobs."
