Broken Walls

4. Is he a greek god or what?

The present......

"Diana, please take table 7."

"Okay." I said with a smile.

Ever since I left my grandma's home, I have been working my butt's off to pay my bills.

At first I wss staying in an orphanage but when I turned 15, I left and payed for a one

room apartment , got a job in a library and continued school. It wasn't easy at first

juggling school,with work and paying up my bills but I got a hang of it. Whrn that I

have graduated from high school, things became a lot easier for me but I needed more

Money for my college expenses. So I quitted my job at the library and started working in
a well paying cafe which was owned by a nice elderly couple. At 18 I am proud to

say that I am independent.

" Diana ,your shift was over since 6 hours ago."Mia said. Mia is my friend and partner at

work.

"I know. "

"So, go. You must be tired by now."

"Don't worry, mia. I am fine." I say with a smile.

" Okay. If you say so . I will be on my way now bye."

"Okay. Bye, mia." I wave her off. I continue cleaning the tables since we would soon be

closed for the day. Everyone has gone except for Mrs Smith and I. Mr and Mrs Smith are

the owners of the cafe and are very nice , makes me remember my parents. I

looked down to my chest then brought out my locket and opened it. Seeing my parents

and I together in the picture looking happy always makes me fill emotional but since I

am at work I closed the locket and wiped my eyes to remove any stray tear.

I was throwing away the leftovers when I heard the bell signifying someone just

entered. Immediately, I went out of the kitchen to see who entered the cafe so late in

the night, I mean this is 12:30.

I looked for the person that just entered when I saw a man sitting by the window, I

walked to him and said,"Good evening, sir. What can I get for you ?"

" A coffee. "He replied without facing me. I can barely see his face but from what I can

see he looks like a handsome man.

I went and made his coffee making sure that it was perfect so as not to make him angry

because it seems like he is in a bad mood.

When I brought the coffee to him , he took a sip then looked at me . At that moment I

felt like fainting . He has the most gorgeous mixture of grey and blue eyes ever and the

darkest shade of black hair I have ever seen and his face is like that of an angel.

" Mrs Smith's?"

" No . Mine." I say looking at the ground. Something about the way he looked at me felt
.....strange.

" Nice." I smiled , knowing that he liked it then went back to the kitchen. I was thinking
about his stare when all of a sudden, " Is he a greek god or what?"

I turned around to see Mrs Smith smiling at me.

" I don't know. "

" Oh ,come On. Its kinda strange though, he hasn't been here since like the past 10 years. "

I wanted to ask why but quit it when I heard the door closing. I went to his table to see

the money for the coffee and the largest tip I have ever gotten.

" Diana, dear. You can go home now. We are done for today."

" Okay." I went into the store and removed my work outfit and wore my clothes. As I

came out, I went to the kitchen,"Goodbye, Mrs Smith. Please greet Mr Smith for me. " I

said as I peck her on the cheek .

" Goodbye, sweetheart. And I will." I smiled at her and went outside. Immediately I got

far away from the cafe, I wore my hoodie to cover my face because this place is not safe
at night but yet I still take the risk. I am almost home, thank God............until...

"Hey, darling." I heard someone say behind me. I turn around only to see six men

behind me. O Lord this cant be my day at all. Maybe they are not talking to me at all, so..

.... I will just turn around and........

"Hey, where do you think you are going?" Another guy from the group said walking up to me.

Okay now, run. I ran so fast, I couldn't feel my legs, I am not going home because then

they will know where I leave, but where do I go now? Oh I see a passage, I hope is not

closed. I enter the passage, only to find out it was closed.

"Now, you got no where to go." A guy said and then the remaining 5 came joining him.

"For a small girl you sure can run fast." Another one said panting.

" Please , I dont have enough money with me right now, but this is all I have," I said as I

bring out the tips that I got from the cafe.

" We don't want your money, we just want to have some fun. "

I dont understand. Oh wait....no..no,"No please, I beg you."

" Oh come on ,it won't hurt."

"Please, no." I am begging on my knees right now.

"Grab her." They held my arms and I did nothing but prayed to God to save me.

" Dont worry, I will take it slow and easy." A guy said as he removed his belt from his

trousers.

Lord please, Lord please, Lord pl.....

" Leave her alone." A man said. I strain my eyes in the darkness to see who it is but I

can't see his face.

"Hey, if I were you I will mind my own business. " the guy behind me said .

" Hmm...jacob's men. Seems like your master never told you about me."

" Hey, kid. Watch your mouth."

" I should be the one telling you that now, shouldn't I?"

I am already feeling dizzy, I am gonna pass out any minute from now.

"Come on. Forget the dude, when he is tired he will go." The guy holding me said.

" yeah lets forget him. This chick can't wait forever."

And then the next thing I hear is the sound of bone cracking . Immediately, the men

holding me started running away. I looked down and saw the remaining three men on

the ground. I looked up to see my saviour only for me to see the last customer from the

Cafe. O my God...and the last I remember is falling into the arms of the man.
