I wouldn't stop trembling and I most definitely didn't understand why . I locked eyes with just one guy and I was all jittery and nervous. He had already left and yet this sensation came unto me. Boy, if I were to continue at this rate, I would be falling for every guy who attempts to speak to me.

I sighed and shook my head as I held my hands flat on the desk before me, telling myself to stay focused and returned to work.( hey, so what i'm a little weird?! we all are, right?!)

But it was always so impossible to keep focus when I felt like his eyes were always on me every time he returned to the kitchen to grab a dish or two. I knew perfectly well that he watched my every move and I would be lying if I said it didn't affect me. I turned around with the finished dish in my hand and just when I was about to mouth the words "Order up", Ty's warm hands were upon mine. What he didn't know was how big an impact he had on me, in that swift moment my heart beat seemed to pause to his touch and I let him have it.

Ty snickered sweetly, not that he knew what he was doing to me. Or maybe he did. I left the plate in his hands and allowed him to take it away.

📝Helen😝

Wilhelmina was once again in her usual provocative clothing and sat in front of the mirror as she did her make up. I was in the room, going through my work but didn't miss to look at my sister every now and then. I sat there contemplating with myself, not sure whether I should open my mouth to her at all or if I would just be wasting my breath.

"When are you going to stop lying to everyone?" I finally managed to say, closing my book and stared at Mina, in the mirror.

"I don't know what you are talking about." Mina said, but didn't stop powdering her cheeks.

I sighed, rolled my eyes and pushed my specs back in place using my middle finger. "C'mon, its obvious even to a five year old that you dropped out of school. So when are you going to tell Katrina?"

"Still don't know what you are talking about." Mina said nonchalantly.

"Katrina is out there, working her butt off, trying to provide for all of us, pay for tuition,yours might I mention, and all you do is get drunk and waste yourself. Aren't you just ashamed?!" I said that last part a little slower, at a level even her busted brain could understand.

Wilhelmina didn't seem affected by what I had just said. She ignored it all and put on her 6 inched heels, grabbed her purse and walked out while I just shook my head at her. Hopeless. I thought.

I walked out of the room and out of the house to get some fresh air since Wilhelmina had left her toxic doom she called 'perfume' in there.

I stepped out of the house to find the infamous Claus in front of the gate, engine still running as he hastily waited for Mina when he noticed me. "Hey, Helen right?" he asked, a look of uncertainty gracing his face. I cocked her eyebrow as I looked at him head to toe wondering what the fux was wrong with his brains when he chose to even look at Mina.

I kissed my teeth at him with disgust and walked away. Crossing paths with Wilhelmina, I entered the house and locked it shut. Through the window, I watched how the motorcycle drove away, Mina's fake weave bouncing in the air. I turned, shook my head and dropped my keys on the plastic chair and walked towards the room, happy that I could finally study in peace. I'm not like other eighteen year olds, I've noticed.

📝Katrina👑

That day, the staff was dismissed later than usual. I walked back into the locker room the second time that afternoon,had forgotten my sweater in my locker that really needed to be in the laundry. When I was out, I was sure that everyone had left. I stood at the pavement hoping a taxi would pass by but that was probably not going to happen. I looked down as I forced my sweater down the bag when Ty drove up to me. Apparently I was wrong.
