✨Jalyn Palmer✨

Jalyn brushed off her apron as she walked around the counter to the dining area. She cleared the tables of the dirty dishes that the customers left.

It was time to close the restaurant and she was beyond drained. She just worked a double shift and she still had to be back at work at 9 am.

She placed the tray of dirty dishes in the sink. She pulled out her phone to check the time. It was 10:30 pm. She slid her phone back in her pocket then washed the dishes.

Jalyn was only 19 years old. She worked as a waitress at uncle chuck's diner. She was still in school and was studying to be a radiologist assistant. She lived in pine wood Orlando, Florida.

After she was done with everything. She told her manager that she was going to head out so she should come close the door behind her. Jayln walked to her car putting the keys inside to unlock the door.

She got in and started up her car . She placed her apron on the passenger side and then said a small prayer before backing out of her works parking lot and driving home.

Soon after, she pulled up to her 2 bedroom apartment. Sirens blared as she got out of her car. Crack heads and prostitutes roamed the streets. She grabbed her apron and then locked her car door.

She ran up the steps and then stopped at the front door. She unlocked it with her keys and then went inside. She locked and closed the door behind her. She threw her keys down on the center table and hung her jacket up.

She kicked off her shoes then headed into the bathroom where she took a shower. Twenty minutes later, she came back out and headed into the kitchen—where she made some hot cocoa. She grabbed two slices of bread and made a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

She walked over to the couch and sat down. She put the mug on the little table that was in front of her. She grabbed the remote and cut the tv on. "Breaking news. Three men were arrested today in dealings with the death of 34 year old Roderick kelps. Police say kelps was shot to death and then dumped in a alley behind a trash can. They still have yet to figure out who the exact killer is. We'll have more on this story later on" The lady on the tv said.

Jalyn shook her head and cut the tv back off. Things were really crazy out here and she was scared. She lived alone and only God himself can protect her. Yes she had maze and a small hand gun but she can't fight off everyone by herself.

After she got done eating and stuff she got up and made sure she locked her door. She washed out the cup that she used and then cut the lights off and headed to her room.

She kneeled down and said a prayer to God thanking him for his guidance and asking him to protect her through out the night. After she was finished, she hopped inside her bed. She pulled the covers over her body, getting cozy. It was currently 12;15am and she was tired as hell.

She closed her eyes and before long she was out.
