Elsa POV
My name is Elsa Logan, I am 30 years old; I have twin babies (Abbie and Jordan).
I was born with two young sisters (Maggie and Stacy) and one young brother (Clay).
My dad died when I was eighteen years old, I had to be responsible for my younger siblings because my mom was sick and she was not able to work enough to feed and educate us all.
I decided to drop out of college to work so that I could be able to help my family. It had been five years since my dad died; I got a job at fancy restaurant in my town and it pays me well.My story began when I met Bill Logan, my lovely husband and father of my beautiful twin babies.
The first time I saw him, I was working night shift at restaurant. Many people love visiting there because we serve the best roast eggs rolls in the town.
I was holding 4 cups of soda, I did not realize that someone was deadly stared at me until I slipped down in front of a handsome well-muscled man whom I never saw before and split a drink on him, I was so embarrassed that I could not even raise my eyes up.
"Oh! How can you split a drink on my shoes?" Bill said to me with arrogant tone
"My bad, am so sorry I did not mean it" I replied to him in a humble voice
"Sorry cannot buy me a new pair of my 100$ shoes" he snapped back at me and I lose the patient I was keeping in me
"Hey! It was an accident, Do not come onto me like I did it on purpose" I said to him in my do not mess with me tone and drawn the attention from other customers.
"How can a waiter like you dare to talk to me like that? Where is the manager of this restaurant? " he yelled back at me
At that moment, I realized how I overreacted and I had to do something to overcome that scene I caused before it is too late for me. I had two options: to calm down and apologize or lose one and only job that was helping me to pay rent for my sibling's hostel and their necessity.
"Please! I am really sorry I overreacted, I have too much going on in my life," I humbly told him
"Do I look like I care about your issues?" he replied,
"Please, I cannot lose this job. It is all I have left," I begged him
I was worried about losing my job no matter how; I did not realize that I was crying. He stared at me longer than I expected and he laughed. I was shocked and disappointed in him for his arrogant and jerk actions.
"I hate rich people," I whispered to myself
"What did you said, Miss Waiter" he asked me with smile on his face
"Nothing," I lied
"You are the worst liar I ever met," he claimed and he lost in thought
She was the first girl I had ever met that had not thrown herself into my arms or in my bed; it made me want to know more and only intermediately.
"Whatever," I snapped back at him
"Seriously miss," he said with amused face
"Never mind, are we done here?" I asked, but I could not believe that I am still showing off women's power over man
"Not yet Miss," he said with mocking expression on his face
"I thought you forgave me, please I have a lot of works today," I said
"Okay, I need you to give me something before you go," he suggested,
"What is that?" I asked,
"Can I have your phone number Miss Waiter?" he asked me
"Why would I give my number to a totally stranger?" I asked without thinking twice
"Hh! Because you do not have a choice," he replied
"Fine! Here is my phone number," I gave up on the unnecessary argument
"Thank you Miss Stranger," he said with amused expression
I went to the nearest table to take orders, that Jerk wasted my time. When I was about to bring the orders, I heard my phone rang in my pocket, and I found my sister's name popped in the screen. I immediately panicked; I knew my sister would not call me during late night hours if it were nothing serious.
