Abby.

Why is life so hard with me ?, I've lost the people I love, I stopped school after 1 year to find a job and take care of myself, and at the moment I think everything will be fine. Things happen to me. It's true I can find another job, but I have to admit I liked to work at Hell's Kitchen with Stacy. Everything went so fast. I don't recall what happened. I just know, I've been fired.

After that, when I got home, all what I wanted was to find a new job. I'll have to pay my rent in some days and I didn't want to touch my bank account.  Collins even told me to come and collect my indemnity in the evening. But I don't really see myself going back there and taking money from his hands.  What he did to me was unjust.

That's why I won't go there. Let them keep the money. I'm fine.

My phone rang and I saw there "Jason".

To be honest, I found it weird, for weeks now he hasn't called me and it's just today, the day I got fired,  that he decides to call ?, after telling me how he will never call me before I'm lucky having his number. Yes, I saved his number some days ago, when I was still asking myself whether I should still call him or not.

I didn't pick, the call. And was checking job offers online. He called a second time. I was tempted to pick and I did so. I really liked him when he was begging me to call him. And now, he is begging me to answer.

"Allo, Yes ?" I said.

" Abby ?"

" Yes,  what do you want ?"

" So you have my number ?"

" You've given me , remember ?"

"How are you? "

" You are not calling for nothing,  so tell me. .. what do you want ?"

" You really lack good manners and that's why you were fired".

It passed through me like an electrical shock.

" How do you know it and how did you get my number?"

" I have contacts, I can get any information".

" It's forbidden for the restaurant to give our personal information"

"I have money.  Remember ?"

" So you're calling to laugh at me? Or tell me once more you have money and everything ?, we know the song".

" It's not actually that, but I can help you. I have to a job offer".

" I don't trust you, and anything coming from you"

"I'll pick you up at 7pm at your place. And please dress decently ".

He said that and hang up. I don't know how I can like someone this much and hate him so badly at the same time. May be he isn't that bad and wants to help me. I was still not very sure of his intentions. He hang up and didn't even say goodbye.  He was arrogant. I was still asking myself whether I should go to his rendez vous or stay home. But just thinking about him and I on a rdv, made me smile. He didn't even ask for my address. What I'm I even saying ? He surely has it already. He has contacts.

I was excited to see how a date with Jason will be, if at all we can call it date. And what kind of job was he trying to propose  ? .

Jason.

I called her boss.  No, her ex boss and took some of her personal information. Normally I paid for it . Collins had to admit we made a great duo. All m9en are thesame and I wonder where Chris is coming from.

I called her. It rang, rang and rang and she didn't pick. What's wrong with this girl?  I call her, I , Jason and she ignores it ? Is it not what she wanted ? It's like she's fun of making me running after her. You understand why I want that revenge? . In normal circumstances, I will have stopped calling, but I wanted her to answer. So I called again.

This time, she picked and didn't ask who was speaking, I guessed she saved my number, but out of her pride, she didn't call. I tried be polite , but this girl has one of a damn character.
She asked me
" You're are not calling for nothing,  so tell me, what do you want? "

She could at least  thank me for asking how she was and calling her. Something she could not do while she has my number. I found the urge to respond sarcastically, by telling her, she's wild and that's why she was fired. I admit that wasn't good.  But I wanted is wanted to play that game,  we'll play the game.

She asked me, how I get some of her data. I couldn't miss one more occasion to tell her how influencing I am. And that's what she forgets.

I told her I wanted to give her a job and I invited her out at 7pm. I could have invited her to my office, but I don't know if she'll come.So, I decided to pick her up, to make sure she'll come.

Thinking about it, It's like I was unconciously inviting her for a date. I don't know why, but I felt a little bit exited. But I think it's probably because, my plan was working. I can't like her right ?

End of Chapter 8.
Some Chapters will be shorter and will contain both Abby's and Jason's Parts.

I guessed it will be better. Seeing how things are going we might end up having 15chapters.

I just listened to Ben Platt- In case you don't live forever.
One of my favorite.
