"Y/N what is going on?" my mom screeched.
I looked up from the burgers I was cooking. "Good morning to you to mom,"
"Gina's omelets are the best!" piped the hell spawn but mom ignored her.
"Y/N! What is that sound? Do you know what time it is?" she screamed.
"Why yes. Its 12:00PM in the afternoon," the maid said.
"I wasn't asking you!" she yelled.
"Mom she's right. Its 12 in the afternoon." I say.
"So who is making that noise?" she yelled.
"The person I hired to chop down the tree close to my room," I say.
She looked at me for a moment and glared at me. "Why are you trying to destroy our property?"
My hands tightened around the spatula I was holding and I turned off the grill.279Please respect copyright.PENANAvCvebA9xYn
Why? 279Please respect copyright.PENANAvwnmhrTQVg
You'll see soon. 279Please respect copyright.PENANAsvgLWUunzv
"Do I need permission to protect myself?" I ask. "Oh wait I don't because you don't fucking care about my safety!"279Please respect copyright.PENANA8WnHvWTE6D
Gina squealed and rushed to cover Pat's ears.279Please respect copyright.PENANA2zyaqZXQ2e
"Don't you dare use that tone on me young lady!" mom yelled blasting her alchohol breath in my face. "Now you are going to tell the 'nice' man to leave or else,"279Please respect copyright.PENANAwPuSsStywK
"Or else what? You are going to ground me?" I snap back. "No. I am not going to ask him to leave. I paid him, he's doing the job and that's final!"
She growled and stormed out of the house only to rush back and run up the stairs.
Let me explain, when she see someone she hasn't slept with, she acts like a karen. When she sees someone she has slept with, she acts like a damsel in distress and seeks for the nearest safety net i.e me or the house.
Cross your fingers she doesn't call my father because that's another round of trouble.279Please respect copyright.PENANAIcQn99Pwas
"You know you shouldn't say such things in front of a young child," she said string the lemonade in glass jar. "She could use it when she grows up."279Please respect copyright.PENANAIcpL7HHejr
I roll my eyes, saddle my bag on my shoulder, "Just don't fuck my father while you work here got it?"279Please respect copyright.PENANAizbiFcRzg5
Then I take the tray from her walked towards Mr. Williams who is using a chainsaw to cut down a huge branch.279Please respect copyright.PENANAHiz26ZPPPG
"Say sir, do you want some lemonade?" I yell from a safe distance.279Please respect copyright.PENANA6qKgS7GwDQ
He turned off the machine and looked at me. "What?"279Please respect copyright.PENANAw4fg5bYwqe
"Do you want to take a break?" I ask. "We got some lemonade,"
He nods and takes off his gloves, "Thanks kid,"279Please respect copyright.PENANAP3FieD703G
As he takes a glass full of lemonade, I set the tray on the tree stump. "I hope you didn't see my crazy mom walk out."
He shrugged, "I was too busy with the machine to hear anything,"
Yet he saw something.279Please respect copyright.PENANAe8FUURJKP1
Yep. 279Please respect copyright.PENANAYxPl0k7ScJ
He's lying.
I tightened the grip on my bag. "I'm going shopping. Be back by six. Do you want me to buy you something?"
He looked at me in shock and I realized that the way I talked to him was rude. It was like I was addressing a child. 279Please respect copyright.PENANASsLpaU76YZ
I was about to say something when he said, "No thanks. I'm good kid,"279Please respect copyright.PENANAI27mQBbovJ
I give a stiff nod and hail a taxi to the supermarket.279Please respect copyright.PENANAJ1U6jFYgoE
"Lets see, shampoo, lemons, beef, ketchup, sea salt, paparika," I paused glared at it "Like I'm going to buy Dardarshian nail polish and Larry Styles poster!"279Please respect copyright.PENANAg96dRqRqRi
"Ahem,"279Please respect copyright.PENANA8Pf0GiqDyF
I look up so see Peter who grinned at me. 279Please respect copyright.PENANA9v5C0a714h
"Oh good afternoon Peter," I say.279Please respect copyright.PENANAlAl3dp9KLO
"Geez, you look sad. What's the problem?" he asked.279Please respect copyright.PENANAPxerXFImUQ
I smiled because...well, he cared. "Nothing. Just shopping,"279Please respect copyright.PENANAwG8q6YyoLi
He grinned, "Can I help you?" 279Please respect copyright.PENANAbPHA7zuwjY
I nod, give him the second list and we shopped together.
"Thanks," I say as we hauled the groceries away.
He grinned, "No problem. This is our second date,"279Please respect copyright.PENANAxZtBsrZ0iy
I paused and looked at him, "Excuse me?"279Please respect copyright.PENANA8zr8YpG9Hk
"This is our second date darling,"279Please respect copyright.PENANAl1Dr37pFOA
I glare at him and take the grocery bag away from him.279Please respect copyright.PENANA9gVv62KzK9
"Y/N wait,"
I ignore him and tried to hail a taxi but none stopped.
Beautiful!
Fucking beautiful!
"Y/N,"
I look to my side and see Peter leaning next to a white van.
"Can I take you home?"
I shake my head and continued to try my luck but...
my luck ran out for some reason.
Fuck!
It was getting late and all this time, Peter was waiting for me with a grin on his face.
"Can I take you home now?"
I sigh and accept.
