Mauve

I've been up and out of bed since ten this morning. I went jogging with my momma first then I came back to relax before getting ready for my first day at work. The schedule said for me to be there at two o' clock and it's now one fifteen.

I look over my clothing in my full body mirror making sure it's nothing too fancy since I'm dealing with three kids. I went for a basic look to be comfortable yet chic.

I learned yesterday that they have two twin girls and newborn baby boy. This isn't going to be a challenge for me though. I use to baby sit more kids than that back in my home town. Having a boatload or cousins comes in handy.

I grab my things heading downstairs to say bye to my momma while she's in the kitchen cooking. I enter the kitchen as the scent of fresh macaroni and cheese hits my nose.

"I'm off to work." I say getting my momma's attention.

She smiles looking at me from head to toe. "Alright gorgeous, You looking great. Have a wonderful first day."

I smile in return attempting to walk off. My momma stops me again by talking.

"Oh, don't forget to call that daddy of yours child. He wants to know all about your new job." She includes before I nod and say bye again.

I'm trying to make an impression and show up a little early rather on time. I get in my car heading straight to my location. On my way there my mind draws back to Mr. Tesfaye messages.

I just randomly thought about him wanting a contact photo and complimented me on my picture saying I looked lovely. Maybe he was just trying to kill off the awkwardness.

Jamming and rapping along to Nicki's new song Barbie Tingz, I pull up in front of the huge mansion parking my car in front of it.

I exit the car going up to the front door ringing the doorbell twice. I stand with my hands clutched together waiting for someone to open up.

The door swings open and I'm greeted by Mr. Tesfaye. He smiles automatically looking way more enthusiastic than last time. Maybe he was having a bad day.

"Hey Mr. Tesfaye, how are you." I greet holding my hand out.

I watch his eyes trail me from head to toe as if he's mentally trying to approve of my attire. I know I have a few buttons undone, but I hope it's okay.

"Once again, you can just call me Abel." He shakes my hand opening up the door wider for me to come in.

I nod coming in waiting for directions on which way I should head. Abel closes the door and turns around looking at me.
