saturday: work day

It was never easy for me to wake up to an alarm. The screaming clock sounded like a hushed voice to me. Of course it never calmed me while in a deep sleep, but it also failed to wake me up so I guess it's just useless to me. Work days have always been rough for me. Honestly, I have to get up at 8 o'clock and make it to work by eleven, but Anita (my manager) always likes to call me in early. I work at a roller rink that smells like dead fish and looks like a crappy motel that you'd go to when you're in a pickle while traveling somewhere, but I need the money and it's where I can make cash and barely have to work.

I'm constantly surrounded by impatient children and uncaring parents. It's rare that I have a good day at work. There's always one way someone can ruin your day even if you're on cloud nine. Wether it be my coworkers or my family I get agitated one way or another on a work day. Stepping out of my warm bed makes me sigh. My feet take me to my bathroom where I get ready for work.

I begin with a nice shower as I jam out to Drake. I blast the music and within five minutes of my shower I hear the stomping of my mother's feet traveling up my staircase. The footsteps get quieter as she enters the bathroom. The music is turned down to the point where all I can hear is the bass escaping my stereo.

"Mya what the hell do you think you're doing?" My mother asks in an angry tone.

"Taking a shower for work." I answer being truthful.

"Mya it's 8 am and you're blasting dirty rap music for the whole neighborhood to hear!!!" She screeches with stress.

"Fine. Turn it off." I grunt at her.

The music completely stops and my mother goes back downstairs. After showering I get changed into a coral skirt and a white long sleeve crop top. I dry my hair and then curl it. I put on Valentine's Day makeup and grab a quick bite to eat. I rush to make it to the rink for couples skate. Couples skate is where people get treated to a roller skating date, but this week is a lot bigger because Valentine's Day is coming up in a few days.

10:03 am
at work

I step into the building before I'm supposed to be there. I see one of my coworkers, Lilly, cleaning tables to get ready for the day. I walk over to her and hand her a small teddy bear that I bought for her to brighten her day. She smiles and thanks me and continues cleaning. I then walk to our staff room and place my bag on the table. I walk back outside and guests have began arriving.

I place my skates on my feet and begin drifting around until I fall right into someone. A thud sounds beneath me and I realize I've landed on this person. Liquid is everywhere and I'm praying I didn't kill the person. I stand up frantically and help the boy up.

"I am so sorry I'm just super clumsy!" I say. The liquid was a green apple slushy and it was all over the boy, me, and the ground.

"Nah, it's fine don't worry about it!" He says.

"I'm Mya." I smile as a click breaks in my mind. What is this feeling. Honestly I've never felt this happy.

"I'm Reese." He smiles back.

"Can I take you out to dinner to repay you for what I've done?"

"That would be very nice."
