Chapter 5: New Job

Dexter Veges

I sat in my bed, thinking. "That was different." 

I got up from my bed and walked to my closet. I shoved my hand to the back of the closet, feeling around for the fuzzy material.

I felt it and pulled it out. I examined the pockets and found the money I was looking for. I pulled out wads of money. From one's to hundred's. I counted it and left it on my bed.

I walked through out the cabin, rememberingwhere i hid more amounts of money. Once I collected all of it, I brought it back to my room.

I had roughly one million dollars. I jumped around my room screaming.

I suddenly stopped thinking, "What the hell am I going to do with this money?" 

An idea sprouted. I grabbed some of it and put the other away. I put on some old Chuck Taylor's and walked out of the cabin, making sure to lock it this time. 

I walked through the woods, not needing a map, living in woods really does some thing to a person, you know. I already knew the way to civilization. I walked out of the woods and started walking to the nearest car place. I walked up to Henry's Car Shop. The door jingled as I walked into the store. 

"Hello, what can I do for you, little lady?" A guy asked, I noticed that he had a name tag. 

"Well, Jared. I need a car." I told him. 

"What kind? Do you have a specific type?" 

"I want shiny, new. I want one that says 'Don't mess with that chick!' You know what I mean?" I asked. Jared nodded and told me to follow him.  We came up to a bright pink Volkswagen Beetle. I laughed when I saw it. 

"Is this what you think I want?" I said between laughs. Jared looked uncomfortable. 

"You can go back to what ever the heck you were doing, I going to look at other cars, okay?" Jared walked away as I walked outside to inspect other cars. I turned to go back inside, disappointed that I couldn't find the perfect one, when I saw a light in the corner of my eye. I went to it and gasped. It was a Ford Mustang in the color Ingot Silver. 

"This screams 'Don't mess with that chick!'" I shouted. I called over Jared. He looked at me then the car, at me then the car. With raised eyebrows he said, "Are you sure you want this car?" I nodded eagerly. 

"Okay, that'll be about... $23,600." I took Jared's arm and pulled him into the store so that I could buy the car. I pulled out the cash and piled it on the counter. I gave him the exact amount and he gave me the keys. I ran outside and got in. I put the key into the ignition and backed out of the shop and onto the road. I went down the road and to the town mall. I finally found a parking space and went shopping for new clothes. My new job is going to have to require a whole new wardrobe. 

I went from store to store, grabbing anything that seemed appropriate for my new job. I stopped when I was satisfied. I put all my bags in my new car and went to get food. I eat then went home, parking my car in front of it. I got in bed and smiled, excited to start my new job.

I got up from eating a bowl of cereal. I walked to my room and let my hair free, I brushed it and picked out my outfit. I decided on black skinny jeans, a maroon v-neck, a leather jacket, black Vans and leather gloves. I grabbed my keys and some money. I grabbed my  bag and loaded every thing into a rusty truck that I bought after I got the Mustang. I hopped in and started it and got out of the woods. I drove through the town and to my new convenience store. I parked and unlocked the store, bringing it to life. I sat behind the counter, waiting for costumers. A college was up the street and college students would usually come in at this time. A group of college boys came in, laughing about something. They stopped in their tracks when they smelt my scent, I tried to find their's but failed. They all some how got to the counter.
