Mrs.Edwards is my mother's friend , she have been working in our store for as long as I can remember.
' hey mina how are you ? How are you feeling now ? I hope you feel better ! '
I've been calling Mrs.Edwards "Mina" since I was a baby , I still don't understand why though. her name was Malesa but I guess I'm just used to that nickname , and she really likes it when I call her that .' I'm fine darling , thanks for asking .
Oh and thank you very much for the breakfast you sent yesterday. It was amazing , love 'Mina was sick the past few days so the moment I found out about her sickness I rushed to her house with food and all the meds she might need , because I know that she doesn't really take care of herself and that is horrible for her health .
I carried on with my work while my mind drifted somewhere else . I started wondering about Ameila .
My daughter. I know , suprise huh ? .Now don't be quick to judge my age , I'm only 22 years old , I got pregnant at the age of 18 , I still remember that night . my boyfriend dumped and confessed to me that he was cheating on me the whole time we were together , because I couldn't give him what he needed , which is sex . Although I told him not to pressure me because I was just not ready .
I remember taking the first bus to the city heading to the closest bar i could find , now usually I know how to handle those type of situations , I never show my weakness to anyone, that's why I'm known as the strong independent girl nobody messes with . But in the end , I'm just Human and I was helplessly in love with the guy .
I drank as much as I could , wasting all the money i had on the strongest type of alcohol until i ran out money.
I don't exactly remember what happened next but I do get some flashbacks from time to time .As much as I don't wanna remember , I know exactly what he looked like . His image hunted me in my dreams and till this day I can't get it out of my head . Somehow his face is still at the corners of my mind .
His doesn't look like the man you'd smile when you remember him . Instead , whenever I get a flashback about him , I feel that goosebumps prick my whole body .
Fear , Hatred and malice . Those are the feeling that always surrounds his image .'Sweetie, your shift is over . I can take care of the store now , there isn't many customers at this time anyways' Mina's voice cut through my thoughts bringing me back to earth .
'Come on you can go darling , I know you need to spend sometime with Ameila too ' she said as she bent down to get something .
'Darling , give this sweets to Ameila , I know she likes them ' handing me some sweets .
' oh . Thank you so much mina , you didn't have to , but I'm sure she'll love them' I said as I gave her a hug .
Heading outside I was lost in my thoughts again but this time I was wondering what to get my baby for her birthday, I still have alot of time but I'm not rich, so I have to work my ass of to get her that pretty dress she wanted . Yeah I might not have the money but I always make sure she gets what she needed even if it requires me to do some sacrifices.
Accidentally Bumping to a guy who's wearing a suit . ' sorry ' I quickly apologised and kept on walking .
' you better be ! I can't understand the people of this area .. ' I heard him say to himself under his breath .
Turning around I yelled ' excuse me ' the man turned to face me as I said ' who do you think you are ! Here . You are in no position to act like your better than eveybody ! 'The man's eye widened , it seems that he wasn't expecting me to say anything.
' you better watch your mouth lady , I'm respected by everyone in the city so I expect to be treated the same way here 'Laughing at his mentality ' well too bad , expectations leads to disappointments '
I started walking again before I stoped , Turing around I said' oh and by the way, this village doesn't reach your social level so I suggest you leave before you get disappointed again'
And with that I started walking toward my house, I couldn't really see his face clearly since it was dark outside but I could tell that he had a blonde hair , in fact he looked really attractive I must say , but he personality didn't agree with his face .
