That same night.

"Where you at boy!" Marcus asked me.

"Marcus, Im getting in the car now!" I responded.

"You was suppose to be clocked in 30 mins ago." He explained.

"Umm, you CANT call me last minute and expect me to just show up... Ready to work at your leisure!" I snapped back.

"Whatever get here or you wont have to worry about coming back here at all." Marcus ended the conversation.

This nigga was crazy. I was already having a bad enough week as it was and now he was calling me into work last minute. But I wasnt gonna miss the opportunity to make some extra little cash so of course, I was gonna go get that shhhmmoney ! I put the key in the ignition and was on my way. I was planning on buying Kendra a little something special. Everything with her was going good other than that little argument we had the other day. Kendra was starting to become my everything in life. Every little thing I did was for her... To show her how much I loved her and was happy she was apart of my life. We would go on our little dates basically everyday, to our favorite spot, Chipotle. I knew exactly what she got on her bowl from bottom to top and vice versa. We were getting pretty serious and she also came over my house so much that it felt like she was apart of the family. My mom adored her and my dad always called her "The Daughter Ive Never Had."! He was pressed and Kendra was too! She even called him pops from time to time. Soon I was pulling up to my job and the bright ass sign on top of the store broke me out of my 'Kendra Trance'. "The Fudgery!" it screamed in your face boldly, with its black, white, and green writing. I sighed at the fact that I was about to walk into this hell hole. But I had money to get and work to be done so I went on in and walked into the back. Of course, the first person I ran into was, Marcus.

"Its 8:23." His voiced sighed out.

"I know what time it is." I responded grabbing my apron.

"Well... look I gotta go. I have a family emergency thats why I called you."

"Now, I made some other calls so you wont be alone tonight. Just make sure one of you lock the store up before yall leave." He added on before walking out.

I watched as he closed the door behind him and I sat behind the register. I pulled out my phone and started scrolling down my twitter feed and began to wonder why I was even called in. Why was the damn fudgery open until 12 ! Nobody was gonna be strolling in here off the late night asking "can I get a caramel truffle". I ignored my thoughts and kept scrolling until I seen a certain post that caught my eye. Will had tweeted a broken heart emoji 23 mins ago. Something in me felt bad for him. When I wasnt thinking about Kendra, all the way in the back of my mind... there he was. Always there but overlooked, the thought of him stood. I did him wrong the other night. After vaguely thinking of him I started to miss him. I clicked the lock button on my phone and the time appeared.

"Damn, Where the fuck this other worker at?" I said noticing an hour or so had passed.

Just as I made my statement, in he came walking in. I hadnt been to work in a while, so I completely forgot Robert worked here. He gave me a weird smirk and shook his head. Like he was disgusted at what he seen or as if he was above me. All the feelings, I had building back up for Will.. If they wasnt already gone was definitely leaving my body again at the sight of Robert. This was gonna be a long night.
