Break Your Heart, Mend Mine

1

I hate waking up in the morning. It's the worst part of the day especially when I have somewhere to go. I mean,why couldn't life just be all about living in bed.Why couldnt life be as easy as chunking down icecream tubs in bed all day while watching all the movies in the world. Yeah, that's my favourite pass time. Kill me.
I'm still tossing and turning in bed trying to figure out how to get up when my phone rings. Yay!the best friend.

"Laye, you're still asleep??!!", that's the only thing the genius can think about.

''Yeeees,I picked up your call in my dreams...",

"Stupid, it's already 10 am and we gotta be on the road by 1130, and you are not even up yet!!!",
Scold me to death why dont you. ''If you keep scolding me,you won't be helping the situation,my dear rose", yup!she'll kill me

"Get the f#c* up and get ready, I'll be at your door in ten minutes", I doubt this girl's motherly skills

"But......",she hung up. Yes,she is mad.

I have to get up now, so I do and go shower,my hair in a ponytail and I pick a pair of light blue torn jeans,a red croptop and black converse. I am not a make up person,but hey,eyeliner is life. And the lips of mine need some lipgloss magic.
In exactly twenty minutes she arrives at my door,well double is her principle then,not like it would be any help if she arrived sooner.

"Hello good morning sunshine",I open the door with that much enthusiasm and the biggest smile in the world.My friend just rolls her eyes at me though.

"Bad mood?!", I put an innocent face.

"A lazy ass best friend", is her simple reply. So much for sisterhood.

"Did I mention I didn't have breakfast?!",   silence. "I am hungry", silence,
"ooouuhhh...my tummy is chewing itself up", now I'm whinning as we walk down to where she parked her car.
 
"Shut up! I have food in the car"

"Then why leave me speaking all that time", I mutter,but I know she heard. She's just too into this whole buy a gift for my boyfriend thing. I am happy for her,she's settled and happy. Perfect! But boy,ooh boy.

The drive to the mall is quiet,not awkward,just peaceful and since I have my earphones on talking is out of the question. When we arrive at the mall everything is easy since she knows what she's after, she buys a t-shirt and a matching cap. Once done we go out and her mood is better now so we're talking our usual stupidity as we walk to the sitting place in the mall gardens. I am so into the conversation that I don't see the guys coming our way.
 
"Uuuh... Laye?!", Steph stammers as she looks in their direction.
 
"What?! What....",I turn and see what she is on about, well running for it would be cool, and that's what we do. My former boyfriend. I heard that he was coming to this city but with how big it is, running into him isn't right.
We're now on the chairs panting like wild dogs after hunting," Laye, why did you run?!",

"Me??!.. we did, and what did you want me to do...walk up to him and be all, 'hey hunnie I f*cking miss you,give me a hug', and we start making out in public?!", I roll my eyes.

"Is that what you wish to do?!", Steph with a knowing smirk on her face

"I wish to murder you right now!", I smack her on the head

''Ouch?!", but she laughs her ribs away, ''he doesn't know what he lost, that much I can say",now she's all serious and my heart warms at her words. I love my best friend so much,she has all the right words to say to make me feel good about stuff. She is my life.

We go on running around the mall buying random things and making sure we don't cross paths with the man of my dreams turned nightmare.

I am a nineteen year old girl from a not so rich family, well,it's not the perfectly complete family since my mom is the only one who raised me. Along with my grandma and aunt, my dad... I don't know either,so don't ask.

I am currently taking on random pay work but I majorly do volunteer work in an orphanage. I've always liked helping people,so volunteering in an orphanage is perfect for that. I get to spend time with the little angels there and work too. I live alone, I decided to stay alone after completing high school,so I looked for a cheap but cozy place and here I am. After my break up, I didn't want to date again,at least not now. I strangely prefer the single life. I get lonely sometimes,but it's awfully peaceful. That prick really hurt me and now I want to just live freely before anything. 

We spend the day together...well we spend every saturday together. Later that evening we drop by the orphanage to see the kids. Those angels make my day complete so even during the weekends I go see them though I don't have work.

As soon as we walk through the gate I'm attacked and little hands wrap around my legs.

"Ayeee... I knew you come....Chopie kept sayin you wont... here you are!", my little angel struggles with his words.

"Aaawwh, look at you little darling", I scoop him up and place him on my hip, "of course ayeee will come, I would never sleep in peace without seeing my little angel",

He just giggles and I notice him blush, how cute this muchkin. The kids are all playing and Steph and I join them, we have so much fun just playing the games all wrong and it's soon time for them to freshen up before dinner.

I clean little Jayson up and put fresh clothes on him.

"We're all done now, look how handsome my baby is!", I pinch his squishy cheeks playfully.

"I get... from Ayeee... ", he says happily clapping his tiny hands

"So young and already a sweet talker", I scoop him up and take him to the dining room where most of the others are already seated ready for their meal.

"Laye!",Steph walks up to me holding the hand of a 6 year old girl named Terry.

"Bestieee", I chirp ,"forgot all about you!", I smirk and she scoffs.

"Hello Laye",little Terry greets shyly

"Hi Terry, looking good", I tease her and shuffle her hair. I always love her shyness,it's cute.

We put them all on their places and leave them with Ms.Ryne who takes care of everything about the kids' routine and say goodbye. We finally manage to leave after some serious distracting Jay who never gets enough of me.

Steph drives me home.I shower and soon after toss myself on bed. Drifting to the most peaceful slumber.
