Till Disaster Struck {COMPLETED}

Chapter 3: Party And Rage

I was waiting for my call today. If they wanted me for the job today is the last day I would get the call. If my luck keeps going I'll get the job and I'll get my life back together. For the past week all I've been doing is reading book and watching re-runs of old comedy shows. All I want is to get a job and get on with my life. I feel my phone buzz and I quickly move to answer the call.

​"Hello?" I asked.

​"Hi, Layla Blacker? I'm calling to tell you that I would like you to start working at my book store next Wednesday at 7am. We'll discuss everything else then." My new boss said. I took a deep breath so I wouldn't freak out over the phone.

​"Great I'll see you then." I said and hung up the phone. "Finally!" I screamed out. Things were going my way and I was just so excited! I left my apartment and went over to Sarah's. I knocked on the door and waited till the door opened.

​"What's going on Layla?" Sarah asked looking at me concerned.

​"I got the job!" I said excited and she screamed excited for me.

​"That's great! We should celebrate tonight! My treat! I'll invite Jackie too!" She said happily. I don't actually like doing that kind of stuff but I'm not going to say no. "I'm going to get ready and then I'll met with you at your apartment." I agreed and made my way to my apartment.

​I put on a white blouse and blue jeans. I walk to my bathroom and re-due my braid so it looks more presentable. I fix my glasses and I put on light makeup like I always do and call it good.
Seconds later Sarah let herself into my apartment with Jackie right next to her.

​Sarah had her brown hair curled and sitting on her shoulders. She had a low cut party dress with her black combat boots. Her makeup was applied on heavy, like she always has it. Jackie had her black hair straitened and she wore a sparkly blue cocktail dress with blue high heels. They saw me and stopped in their tracks.

​"You can't go to the club dress like that!" Sarah said and I shrugged.

​"It's fine." I said and walked too my front door.

​"Stop! We'll fix this." Jackie said and pulled me back to the bathroom. "We are your friends! And we're going to get you a man tonight!" Sarah nodded agreeing with her and I sighed.

​"I don't need a guy." I tried to escape them but I was cornered in the bathroom.

​"No woman needs a man but just for tonight let's forget everything and party like we're going to die tomorrow!" Sarah said and both me and Jackie looked to her.

​"As usual your motivational thinking is the worst." I said and Jackie nodded with me.

​"It doesn't madder! Jackie, go get my white tulle dress with the mini crystals on the top!" Jackie grabbed her apartment keys and left to go get the dress. "And I'm going to help with your hair! You always have it in your braid but tonight you're going to style some beach curls! Your make up is fine to me but do you have any contacts?" I shook my head. "That's fine, your glass are a nice look on you." She texted something to Jackie and then started to undo my braid.

​"You don't have to do this." I said and she smiled.

​"I've been your friend for a year and a half now! I have been dying to dress you up and do your hair!" I smiled and let her continue. Jackie came with a bag and the dress it was a small dress but it'll fit on my petit body. Sarah grabbed the bag and began to work on my hair. She squirted my hair till it was socked and then pulled her hair dryer out of the bag and blow dried my hair. When my hair had beach curls she took a flower pin she had and pulled my bangs to the left.
