The moment I opened my eyes I knew that I didn’t sleep enough. I looked at the clock thinking maybe I could sleep an hour more but I realised that I was an hour late. I jumped out of bed in haste running towards the shower. I quickly washed myself avoiding my hair for today. I slapped the first decent non hobo clothes I could find and made my way out the door.

I found a half naked Cole standing in the kitchen making coffee and breakfast. My eyes almost popped out of their sockets but I kept my mouth shut. When Cole heard the ruckus he looked at me and said “I made breakfast” he said looking down at the pan in front of him. “I can’t I’m late” I said looking for the keys “It’s on the coffee table” he said from the kitchen. As I was turning around he stopped me “Ann – Marie” he called and I stopped. “Yeah” I said turning around. “Thanx” he said looking at me in appreciation. “For what?” I furrowed my brows wondering what the man was talking about. “For stopping me from making the biggest mistake of my life” he said and my frown disappeared.
“Anytime” I said trying to avoid that aukward conversation that was creeping up. “We need to talk” He said and I said “I’m really late for work Cole” I said turning around again. “We’re gonna have to talk some time Ann” he said. I looked at him and nodded. I knew we had to talk but that wasn’t going to be today. I was tired and I was late. Just because Ashley is humping Al doesn’t meen I can slack on my job.
The day was excrusiating. Al was back but Alan still had exams so it was just me and him at the diner. He made the food and I did the rest. Al said that Ashley went back to the apartment and asked if he could join us there for dinner. I told him that I was in no mood to made dinner but he was welcome to come and either make dinner himself or order take out. He laughed at me and said that Ashley was going to make dinner and that tonight was about me resting.
I touched his forehead and asked if he had a fever because since I started worlking at Al’s diner nothing was about me resting. It was busy every damn day. He said that he was going to close early today and for me to tell customers that it was family business. I wasn’t going to say no to that.
Alex texted me through out the day but I couldn’t reply, I didn’t even sit down for one minute before it started to get busy again. I decided that I would text him back when I was home where nobody could disturb me.
Al quickly helped me to clean up and he followed me home when he locked. When we got home Hadley and Cole were making dinner when Ashley just got out of the shower. “Hey guys” she greeted with a wide smile when she saw Al.
“Yeah hi and bey” I said making a bee line for my room. I didn’t even close the door I just slammed down on my bed face first and I fell asleep just like that.
2 hours later
“You’re over working her Al” came a familiar voice from next to me. I could feel someone taking off my shoes and putting the comforter over my tired body.
“How was I suppose to know? She didn’t say anything to me” whispered someone. “Al she was used to more than 5 hours of sleep when she had the club. She isn’t used to these hours”
“She can sleep late tommorow I’ll take the morning shift” whispered the other person. “How about giving her the day off?” asked the first person. “I can’t. My sister has exams she can’t help out and I’ll never be able to do this without her” said person two.
“And you know she won’t sleep even if she agrees to take the day off” came a womans voice.
“Okay. Morning off and get someone to help out while your sister has exams” says person two. “I can’t afford it Alexander” said person one. “Then I’ll pay her salary. Ill send one of the waitresses over from the club tomorrow” said person two. “Fine” said person one and left the room with person three.
