ASL Sisters

Meet Andrea

  Chapter 2 – Meet Andrea

Engines running and people are busy checking every detail of the car they are modifying for the contest next week. She had mentioned it to her sisters and they are proud of her. They even asked for details and she is very enthusiastic in telling them.

This is one of the biggest job she got. She is more of a freelance because it is a hassle to apply for a regular position in the companies that sponsors car racing or have their own lines. Working under someone is not really a problem for her, the problem is the background checking. She does not want anyone to pry her background because they might get something that would cause a haywire in her life as well her sisters'. She would not want that, thank you very much.

Despite being a woman, she did everything she could to be accepted in this line of work where men usually rules. For her, that is not important. She will do whatever she wanted and no one can stop her.

She first started this when she was only 12. She would ask her dad if she could check his car and all and his and is cool of letting her. After graduating in High School, she took a Mechanical Engineering in the New World University and after that, she took freelance jobs.

At first, it was so hard to get a job because one look from the employer, they would criticize her because she is a woman and usually, this type of job is for men. Well, she proved them all wrong. She started from the rookie racers who don't have enough budget to hire a full pledge mechanic for their cars, and she did.

Soon, after a year of doing jobs that pay low, she began to have offers from big time racers and their sponsors, and there she is.

Whitebeard is the next richest person in the world next to Gol D. Roger. They are sort of rivals when it comes to influence. Edward Newgate "Whitebeard" has as much influence as Roger has. People in the industry are always talking about them.

Now, she was hired to be one of the mechanics for the race and she is super excited. A few weeks ago, Squardo, one of the team hired her and she said yes. Thatch is one of the famous car racers in this generation. She did not have the chance to really meet him and talk to him because she is busy with the modification plus he seems to be busy. Squardo is mostly talking to him.

"Doing good?" A voice from behind Ann made her stop the notes she was taking. She looked up and she was met with Squardo. His face looks scary but he is a responsible man and she appreciated it that he is not sexist.

"Oh, certainly sir. I am almost done with the checking. The engine is in top shape and the inner parts seems to be doing pretty well."

"Good. But I am talking about you. I hope you are not uncomfortable here. The people here are nice. You can mingle once in a while." She smiled at the man. Despite the appearance, he seems thoughtful. Not in a perverted way, but in a friendly way.

"Of course sir. Oh, I just wanted to ask if the test run would be today?" The race is next week and they need to start doing test runs for the vehicle so that they may adjust it. They did a test run once, but it was her off so she did not saw it. She prefer to see it up close to examine the situation more.

"Ah, yes. Thatch should be here any minute now." And as if on cue, someone really arrived at the hangar. But not that cool type of arrival. It is anything but cool because the racer – Thatch is being dragged by the ear of a very gorgeous woman.

"Ah-oww! Izou, honey, you are tearing my ear off!" The red haired man with a weird hairstyle complained to the woman named Izou.

"And, here he arrives." Squardo muttered with amusement and even Ann smiled at the scene. Car Racers look cool on TV, but not this one in front of her.
