The Real Me

New Job

Liz
I was getting tired of the school, and staying at home. I've decided to get a job maybe in a restaurant. At least that will keep me busy. What?? My mom exclaimed there is no way on earth you are working in a restaurant, you have a school to attend. But mom we are on vacation and I do nothing at home apart from sleeping and eating and watching. I said with hope in my eyes. With a silent sigh she finally agreed but you have to be home at 10 pm. Is that alright? Yes mom I jumped on him. I can't wait to look for a job.......

I told Alison to help me with a job search. We kept searching till I saw a restaurant. It was a normal sized. And right now I didn't care. Alison let's try this one. The restaurant read oysters. I quickly open the door. Then was created with a lot of people. I quickly head to the counter to talk to the staffs. Then I saw a red head wearing a uniform. She looked friendly. Hi I quickly said please I'm looking for a job I was hoping there was a vacancy?? I asked more like a question. Then the red head smiled while wait a minute let me talk to the manager. I mouthed a thank you as she left. We waited for less than a minute when a man probably in his early 40s came together with the red head in which I quickly recognized to be the manager.

He was nice actually he asked me some questions in which I answered. In less than 30 minutes he told me I got the job. I was so excited. Alison went back home since it was late, while I headed home also. It was such a tiring day. I walked quietly into the house and saw the lights were all off. I guess my mom must have fallen asleep. I gently walk softly to my room then close the door in way not to make a sound. Then I fall into my bed then fall asleep immediately. No! No please I'm sorry don't hurt me, oh my gosh I'm sorry then I quickly wakeup to what seems like a dream I'm soaked wet in my blanket as I see my mom looking at me as if I was crazy. Baby are you alright? I heard my mom say. But she definitely knows I'm not. That dream I saw him. But he looked much more scary. Mom could you leave me alone please? I said calmly I knew I couldn't hold back my tears. And I didn't want her to think I was weak. Because she knows I passed through a lot from Michael. He was my first crush. He was the type of guy who made gals melt for him. Then I was in high school a teen with no worries. Till he came and took my happiness away. I was a lonely kid back then in high school. I'm the kind of kid who seats in the backseat an talks to Noone but my best friend Sophie. Then Michael came along he was a transfer student from Paris. I don't know what he saw in me. But he made me believe he loved me and I fell for it. Before I caught him with my best friend Sophie making out. It was so devastating. That was the end of my relationship with Sophie. While Michael moved back to Paris. Well it has been a while I've been trying to pick up the pieces of my heart. I lay in bed still thinking about my dream before I was engulfed in another dream.
