Jay:(sighs scrolling through jobs) Linda can you seriously help me? I need a damn job!!
Linda: Girl you seriously need to lighten up. I mean come on, come party with me and Cleo. Job Search can wait. (Gets dressed)
Jay: sorry, no can do. (Still looking)
JB If you're wondering, Cleo and Linda are my only friends here in Idaho. They are party girls. I'm staying with Linda for a while, it's been 3 months since I moved in with her. She's very nice to me. Though, everynight she rides off a different man is like crazy but that's her thing.
Linda: ugh fine. See ya later then. (Leaves)
Jay: bye! (Waves and sees a Job opening)...Freddy's Restaurant...(clicks it)....this looks like my kind of thing...(looks up some research) oohh..(smiles) I'll apply..(went back and apply for it)
JB Knowing me, I would apply for it. It's a damn restaurant. I applied and went back to watching Fairy Tail and eating cookies. Ugh I love Gray his fine ass...and Jellal... ooohh I love his sexy ass too. Even though his twin brother got defeated by Natsu, but I like the Jellal in FairyTail group. He's so hot.. Anyways!! After watching that I went to sleep and waited for the next day.
Next Day
Jay:(wakes up and turns on the laptop) did they accept? (Looks through her emails)...hmm (gets up and takes a shower)...(went downstairs for breakfast)
Man:(came down quietly)
Jay:(watched him)
Man: oh uh morning. (Rubs his neck)
Jay:*not surprised at all* morning. (Drinks some tea)
Man: umm well I will be going.
Jay: hurry up she can sense when you're leaving.
Man:(laughs) 'ight thanks. (Ran out)
Jay:(clean up)
Linda: ugh. (Came down) last night was fun.
Jay:(laughs) as usual.
Linda:(sits down) so when are you going to hang out with us? (Watched her)
Jay: I don't know, when I get settled.
Linda: you're being foolish right now.
Jay: I don't have a car, money or a job. You really think I'm going to be up for partying now?
Linda: tsk, you need to live up to your standards..(gets a text)..
Jay: is it one of your men?
Linda:(sighs and text back) nope, just my dad checking in on me..
Jay: you sound depressed. Did he do something bad? You never sound depressed when it comes to your dad. (Looks at her)
Linda:(smiles) it's nothing.
JB I should've figured she was lying. It's been 5months now that I'm living with Linda and I decided to go out to the job. I caught a bus and it actually looked nice. I went in and everyone was sitting down eating and smiling. I saw a dude serving so I was going to ask him, but he didn't seem so happy doing it.
??:(watched her) table for 1?
Jay: I...no I was looking for the boss, I applied two months ago?
??:(raise an eyebrow) come then..(walks off to the back)
JB He was cute. His name tag said Jerza..he surely doesn't look friendly at all. He sent me to the back in the kitchen and oh my gosh it was hella dirty...what the heck? Who in the world works in an environment like this. I saw the same man that was at the house two months ago doing his work as a chef. I was kind of disgusted by the place.
Man: order up! (Puts the plates up)
Jerza:(takes it and walks out)
Jay: wait I..(looks around)
Man:(watched her) it's you again. Are you here to spy on me?
Jay:(watched him crazy) it would be creepy if I actually had look up where you worked and live. I'm not spying on anyone.
Man: oh good soo.. You trynna get a job.
Jay:(watched him) do I speak to you or...
Man: well you gotta speak to my pal Jerza, he hella busy though so feel free to help around for now.
Jay:(looks around)
Man: My name's Leo by the way, Leo Kingz (sees an order on the screen and starts making it)
Jay:(watched him) Jilya Brat.
Leo:(smiles) nice to meet you.
Jay:(looks underneath the tables)
JB This place looked filthy. There was dishes everywhere, the floors dirty and wet, this huge mixer is in the middle of the room, the shelves behind was awful and the pantry room was filled with boxes. I really didn't want to see the walk-in cooler or freezer. Knowing me, I still checked and everything was out of place. Oh My Goodness!!! I can't do it!!
Jay: uh uh. Nope, not today. (Puts her hair up in a bun, lifts up her sleeves and starts looking around)
Jerza:(came in with dishes and watched Jay)
Jay:(watched him) Hi I..(gco)
Jerza:(gives her the dishes)
Jay: I...ok (takes them)
Jerza: Leo! (Watched him) there is an order coming in today and tomorrow can you help with that?
Leo: I got you Jerza.
Jay: Mr. Jerza sir?
Jerza:(watched her)
Jay: I umm..I was..(came to him and slips)
JB Worst thing that could ever fucking happened! I slipped and broke glass!! I am doomed for the rest of my life. He watched me pissed and Leo came rushing in. I didn't feel it but my arm was cut by the glass.
Leo:(helps her up) you alright?
Jay: Ow..(watched her hand) oh mehn.
Jerza:(watched her)
Jay: I'm so sorry I...(gco)
Jerza: come with me. (Walks in to an office)
Jay:(watched Leo)
Leo:(smiles) go on..(ran back in)
Jay:(follows Jerza and sees the office) *no difference* (sits in the chair)
Jerza:(grabs the kit and kneels down in front of her)
Jay:(watched him)
Jerza:(watched her arm and squeeze it gently)
Jay:(tense) ow.
Jerza: you're a fool for falling. Broke most of the dishes. (Opens the kit and puts on glove)
Jay:(looks down) why everyone keeps calling me that. (Under her breathe)
Jerza:(watched her)...
Jay:(looks at her arm)
Jerza: hmm.(takes the tweezers and pulls the glass out)
Jay:(covers her mouth with her other hand)
Jerza:(puts the glass down and cleans the wound)
JB It stinged like heck!! He put alcohol on it and I'm just crying. He stitched it up and put a big bandaid over it but it was still stinging! He told me stop crying like a baby you fool...That word is taunting me...Am I really that stupid?
Jerza:(gets up and leaves)
JB Well, I got the feeling he's the boss around here. I don't think I got this job at all. The day was over and Leo was so nice to me. He told me he wish to see me tomorrow. I don't think it would be possible but, he knows Jerza well so that means I got the job! Woohoo!!! I went home on the bus and I reached there to see Linda home.
Jay:(ran in) Linda! Guess...(looks at the bags) what..(walks in the kitchen and sees Linda and Cleo) what's going on?
Linda:(sighs) we're...I'm sorry Jay but you gotta go.
Jay: why?
Cleo:(looks down)
Linda:...
Jay:(grabs her bag) I thought we were friends.
Linda: my dad said you're being foolish. You could've looked for another job instead of waiting for the one.
Jay: your dad is foolish!
Linda: don't you fucking talk about my dad like that you disgusting pig!
Jay:(looks down and picks her bag up)
Cleo: Jay what happened to your arm?
Jay: A foolish girl like me did a stupid thing.. (walks out)
Linda: Jay wait..
JB I have no where to go. I have no friends, nothing. I decided to catch the bus back to Freddy's Restaurant. Shockingly, the back door was open. Oh yeah I forgot they were unloading the truck. So why didn't they lock the door? I had no where to go so I locked the doors and slept in Jerza's office. I cried the whole time. I was so depressed my friends would've done that to me. Linda kept calling my phone but I didn't answer then her father did. I really ain't answering.
Jay:(sits under the desk and cries)...(charged her phone and went back)....(wipes her face) I gotta prove that I'm not a fool or an idiot. (Gets up and looks around)
JB Shockingly, I found an extra place that had a couch bed, it looks the cleanest too. I decided to put my stuff in there and changed into my pjs. I set my alarm for 3 in the morning so I can start cleaning this place. I really don't know if I'm hired though. That's my biggest fear. I went sleep and waited for the next day not realizing that I cried myself to sleep.
Meanwhile
Leo:(sitting on the couch eating chips) come on Jerza, it's her first day leave her slide.
Jerza:(sits in front of the computer and ordered more dishes) she broke the dishes.
Leo: you make her nervous knowing you're the boss dude. Plus the look you gave her. I would've been terrified too.
Jerza:(watched him crazy)
Leo: she just wanted a job dude. Leave her alone. I told her to come tomorrow, she seems like she got the potential. If you wanna know anything, (gives him a paper) this is her resume.
Jerza:(takes it and looks at him)
Leo: give her a break. Though, I slept with her best friend. I bet your uncle will appreciate that you're not working by yourself just with me.
Jerza:(watched the paper and sighs)
Leo:(smiles) I know that look she is hired!! Ayee!! Imma go to sleep check you tomorrow. (Went upstairs)
Jerza:(skim through the resume and put it aside)
JC Imma be honest, I'm really not interested at all. But Leo is right. My uncle will not just let me slide with just Leo and I working in the restaurant. She caught me offguard when I called her a fool. She didn't realize that I heard her but I did. Hmm she's a next girl I can play with. Nothing new...
