A Diva's Dream (A YG Family Fanfic)

Chapter 37

11:48pm.

"Milia! You can close up now!"

"Okay!"

I finished wiping the counters and then headed towards the cash register. I counted the money and did what I had to do. I then went back to cleaning tables and-

Jose - "Lia, come here."

I went back to the register and stood next to Jose.

Jose - "There was only $256.31 in here?"

I nodded.

Jose - "Really, cause I just counted $321.67."

Oh shit. Lately my mind has been wondering off and I don't concentrate on anything.

Me - "I'm so sorry Jose! I have other things running through my mind."

He sighed.

Jose - "This the third time this week. What has you so distracted?"

Ethan. Dancing. Max. Me feeling a little sick.

Me - "Just a few things...I hope you don't mind but I was gonna ask for the next two weeks off. I want to go back home for a little."

He nodded.

Jose - "That sounds like a good idea. I'll work the schedule out and let you know by Friday. Until then you're working mid shift, okay?"

I nodded.

Jose - "Now go home Kid."

I smiled as I headed to the back to grab my stuff.

1:31am.

Once I drove into the building's garage I saw Ethan's car. I sighed as I headed to the elevator. I've kind of been avoiding Ethan these last few weeks, when that shit went down with Max. I never really sat down to process it, I just been trying to push it to the side and hoped that it'd go away itself but it isn't working. You can still feel the tension in the apartment.

I walked inside to a semi dark apartment and saw Ethan sitting on the couch watching TV. I put my keys on the counter.

Me - "Hey."

Ethan - "Hey. How was work?"

Me - "Good."

I said as I sat next to him on the couch.

Ethan - "Was it busy?"

I shook my head. He had his arms spread out on the couch. He was wearing his black sleeveless tank and some grey sweats.

Me - "How was your day?"

He shrugged his shoulders.

Ethan - "It was alright."

I think now is a real good time to talk to him. I grabbed the remote and turned the TV down a lil. He looked over at me when I did so. I put the remote back on the table and faced him.

Me - "We need to talk about what happend and what was said."

He folded his arms and stared at the TV.

Me - "Ethan I love you too, but I feel that it's more for a brother. You've been there for me, through everything, and I'm more than grateful but I wouldn't be able to date you because of Julien. He's your brother, my ex, it wouldn't be right to do that to him. I'm sorry-"

Ethan - "Okay."

My eyebrow twitched in confusion. "Okay"?

Me - "What's that suppose to mean?"
