ALICIA SANDOVAL's POV
"Hey, wake up the school is about to close." I yelled at the sleeping body beside me because he is hard to wake up. I literally burst into laughter when I saw him sleeping with his mouth open, but he did not move a little.
I checked my wrist watch and I was shocked because its almost 6 o'clock. Dammit I have work, I need to go
I left Dylan or whatever his name is at the rooftop and went home. I just changed my clothes and went to the café
I'm a working student. My parents?? They died. My mother died a year after Ryan died with heart disease and left me and my father. My father can't move on to the fact that my mother left him, so he committed suicide by drinking a lot of sleeping pills.
So yeah, I was left all alone. I don't have siblings, all my relatives moved out because my father, the one who help them to pay their bills and living expenses, died.
People will only stay with you if they found staying with you will benefit them.
After my dad died, I worked in a nearby café. The pay is good and since I am an achiever I was able to get a scholarship.
"Alicia, you're here" Ms. Claire greeted me with a big and warm smile. Ms. Claire owns the café and sometimes stands as my guardian when the school needs to talk with my guardian.
She is very dependable and caring. She knows that my parents and relatives left but she doesn't know about Ryan.
"Alicia can you give this coffee to the young man sitting near the window" I heard her command. I got the coffee form her hands and deliver it to the customer. But something was very unexpected, the customer was the boy who I met on the rooftop
"Wow, its you" I heard him scream. It's annoying because his scream attracted the attention of the costumers.
"Sir, this is your coffee, please enjoy it "I tried to look calm and be professional
"You know, I hate you" He said. What did I do to him so that he hates me?
"You left me at the rooftop. The school janitor caught me sleeping and he made me write a 200 words apology letter for trespassing" He pouted. Please don't pout you are not cute
"I am very sorry for that sir. If you don't have any more request I will leave because I have work to do" I reasoned out because for me this conversation is very awkward considering the fact the he saw me jumped out of the rooftop.
"Sure. Thanks for the coffee" I bid my goodbye to this guy and continue on my work, but he keeps on staring at me and its making me very uncomfortable.
"Alicia, I think that guy likes you" Ms. Claire.
"I think not. We just met today and that's impossible because I'm not that beautiful" When Ms. Clair heard my words, her face darkens
"Alicia you know that that's a lie, right? You are a beautiful girl" I just nod my head.
DYLAN's POV
That girl is something. She did not mind waking me up. Her voice is sweet and pleasant to my ears. She seems friendly because I saw how she interacts with her boss.
But that's not it, if she is a normal friendly girl, why would she commit suicide?
I continue watching her movements, but nothing seems wrong
"You should stop staring at her young man" A voice woke me up. I turned my head to see who it is
"Why do you keep on staring at her? Do you like her? I just saw you staring at her for like 5 minutes" ugh. It's the owner
"No ma'am" Did I stared at her for that long
"Yes, you did" shit. Did I just say that out loud?
"For the second time, yes you did" Ughhhh. I'm not at good at keeping my thoughts in my head
"So, do you like her? I can help you" What?
"no ma'am it's just that I am curious about her" I reasoned out. Hopefully she will stop
"you know that being curious about something is the first step, right?"
"it is?" she just nods and gave me a piece of paper
"What is this?" I asked but she just look at me. I opened the paper and I saw a series of numbers
"that's her number. Call her sometimes" Did she just sell her employee?
"no, I am not selling her. I want her to experience life that's why"
"well thanks for this. But what is her full name.?"
"Alicia Sandoval" ahh I see
"well can you tell her that if someone will text her later the name is Dylan. Dylan Park"
After that I bid my goodbye and went home. Alicia Sandoval, you will see me again tomorrow and I am sure of it
