P.O.V: Josephina

Ding! I look up from wiping counters to see a group of teens walk into the burger joint. I go over to the cash register to take their order.

"Hi! Welcome to Bonnie's Burgers, how can I help you?" I ask with fake smile. I learned to master that, if you're working this kind of job and you hate people but like money, you'll do that as many times as you must. They all place their orders in and walk back to the dining area.

"Josephina!"

I turn to see my boss, Bonnie, looking at me while holding a trash bag in her hand.

Bonnie is obviously the owner of the burger place hence the name Bonnie Burgers. It was passed down to her by her parents when they passed away a couple years ago. She has short brown hair that stops at her shoulders, she's curvy and short. She has a baby face that makes you think she is a sweet lady. Looks can never be more deceiving. Bonnie, is a classified bitch. The only reason I'm working for her is because I need to money. Before her parents passed away, she was a nice person. Smiled at everyone who looked her way. But now that her parents passed away and she runs a restaurant at the age of 26, she has earned the title bitch.

"Take this out to the dumpster and after your done, go clean the bathrooms." She says while handing me the trash. She turns around and walks back to her office. Not that I mind doing work, but she has me doing every little job you could think of.

As I'm going to the back I ask my co-worker, Jessica, to take the food to the teens who were patently waiting.

I opened the door to the back and walk over to the dumpster that looks creepy out here at night with a light pole shinning above it, giving it this horror movie look to it. I throw the trash in the dumpster but as I'm leaving I look down and see a dog that looks like a stray and hungry. I try to go up to it but as soon as it heard me, he or she runs off. I chase after it into an alley and I see it curled up in a corner whining.

I go up to it carefully and go to pet it, and surprisingly it sticks it's head out. I bend down and start petting it. It crawls to my lap and sits in it while I pet behind the puppy's ear. As I'm petting it, I start thinking about what to name it. Then I realized I don't even know the gender. As I'm about to look, I hear a bottle scraping against the concrete floor. I look up from the dog to see 2 male figures come out the shadows and start walking towards me.

"What is a pretty little lady like you, doing here at a time like this?" Says the one that looks like the definition of creepier. With a beard that looks like it could have bugs crawling out and baggy clothes with holes and dirt on it, I concluded that I should leave about now.

"I was just taking the trash out. I should probably get going now" I say as I slowly get up from the ground.

As I'm getting up, I see the other one approaching me slowly. I step back, getting ready to run but before I can he grabs my arm and pulls me into him. My back is against his chest and I can smell is cigarette breath on my neck. I try to escape but it was no use, the mysterious creepy man had a death hold on my arms.

"Boss would love you, so pretty. With your brown hair and your big doe eyes. You would sell quick in the market." He whispers in my ear. The other guy says something that I don't understand and I'm being dragged back deeper in the ally.

I finally register on what's happening and I try to fight against him. Thrashing around and even stepping on his shoes but it's no avail. I go to scream but suddenly there is a white cloth against my throat. Chloroform I thought suddenly. I tried not to breathe in the toxic but I couldn't help it any more. I took in a big breath and regretted it.

I can feel my body moving but I don't see where before everything turns black.

I really hoped you enjoyed it. Please message me any ideas you have for the book. I would greatly appreciate it. I will try to update every week or so but I do have a lot going on. With school (hell) coming up and some family issues I'm very busy. Eventually the chapters will be longer, I promise but I'm having some writers block. Please stay with me.
