"No way! I am not babysitting my sister!" I yell.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAJ2eNFCRO
My mother just waved her hand dismissively and ran straight to the taxi. Before I could catch up, it drove away leaving me coughing in the dust. 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMiLZJ8rIa
"Do you want me to call 911?" 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmG3IO354I
I look up at TK who was holding out his phone and I groaned.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBGCXFtOy1
"I wish. The last time I did that my dad flipped his lid saying something like, 'Are you trying to ruin my career?' nonsense."237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlxeDqroQ5
Yep. He's a lawyer.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAD2xANF5C
I hear a crash inside the diner and rush in to see my sister and another kid wailing and a mess on the floor. It was clear my sister tried to take a customers ice sundae and when she failed, she threw a tantrum and upset the kids dessert.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6C8DU0uv3
Believe me. I know.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMSlZhmUQo
This is going to be a long day.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NT0UvP8Ct
A few hours later...237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwakblVnd5
"I want another strawberry smoothie!" screeched the hell spawn.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzHEuNP8LQ
"No!" I say walking passed her.
"I want a strawberry smoothie!" 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUt301X3eN9
"I can't give you that! Its coming out of my pocket and you know it."
"I don't care! I want a strawberry smoothie!"
For the past few hours, she has ran around the diner, making customers who were eating uncomfortable, tried to get her hands on the smoothie machine, threw two tantrums over me not giving her the ice-cream sundae and tried to steal one from another customer. I tried playing the 'ignore-her-until-she-shuts-up' card and it backfires for she gave an ear piercing scream which annoyed the other customers. Pissed, I tried calling my dad but he was radio silent. My mom refused to pick up her phone and my older sister was off no help.
Did I forget to mention that the smoothies I bought for this little monster was out of my pocket?237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bUISUZepq
Ugh!
"I WANT A STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE!" she screamed banging her fists on the table while I was attending to another table, "I WANT A STRAWBERRY SMOOTHIE! I WANT IT! I WANT IT! I WANT IT!"
"Fifteen more minutes," I muttered scribbling the customers order, "Fifteen more minutes,"
"Y/N!" a huge voice bellowed.
I cringe and look back at my boss who had a pissed look on her face.
"GET THIS MONSTER OUT OF HERE OR YOU'RE FIRED!" he yelled.
All this time, my sister was still throwing a tantrum. I storm over to her and slam my hand on the table.
"Listen you little monster, all the sweets I have been giving you has been coming out of my paycheck so I can't afford to give you another smoothie understand?" I yell.
"If you don't give me a smoothie I will go to the cops and tell them you have been illegally touching me when I take a bath!" she screamed back.
I lost it. I would have strangled her right there and then if a pair of strong arms didn't grab me.
"LET ME AT HER! LET ME AT HER! I DON'T GIVE A DAMN IF I GO TO PRISON FOR FIRST DEGREE MURDER! LET ME AT HER!"
I was kicking and screaming as the strong arms took me into the employee lounge. Tired and mentally exhausted, I collapsed on the chair and start sobbing.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5lpq0Z94o
"Shhh, its okay," the strong arms cuddled me. "Its okay,"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMN2wdPMj5f
It wasn't. I could still hear that monster screaming her lungs out and my boss was calling my name. TK left me alone to handle the chaos and I groaned knowing fully well he would end up spending money on that girl.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsK3EMR1Pr
Suddenly the noise stopped.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQ5HAQz22g
Which was odd. 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ3lpHugfXc
Standing up, I go the dining room area and take a peek.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3q626QufhO
There was Peter watching my sister sip her strawberry smoothie.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQft5Y5y2IL
"Peter?"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRc5hqg364
He looked up at me and grinned, "Hi Y/N?" then his grin turned to that of concern, "Gosh! You look terrible. Are you okay?"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaj6aShmFm
I sniffed and wiped away the tears. "I'm fine. Thanks,"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiqbxgLepo
"Peter! I want another one!" screeched my sister.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcV5fgIunl
"Where are your manners Angel!" I screamed back.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9FkhGg11f
Peter laughed at that, "Its okay. I'll get you another one,"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5yLvv5Tzj
"You know you are spending your money on her," I mutter through clenched teeth.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe4fHkLq2C
"I don't mind," he said and took out his wallet with a huge grin.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOIw8Yo00K
I watched my sister scream with joy as TK appeared with a tray filled with smoothies, ice-scream then sighed.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HjNrsfb9t
At least she's quiet right? 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSBSR6aOa8
Peter stayed with my sister feeding and entertaining her until she fell asleep. I had just finished cleaning up when he volunteered to walk me and my sister her.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeJ1mAXkrw
"Thank you so much but I have to wake my sister and go home," I reply.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2GXD4f61Y
Peter was shocked, "No! Don't you know its a bad idea to wake up a sleeping child?"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXgAboC79UU
I give a rueful chuckle at that.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmo014upnHm
"How about I help you carry her instead?"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv7yYZtl1J
Shocked, I look at his physic and got worried. 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrNmYTGQ5V4
He looked so...thin.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9AuO0Dd9Vk
"Are you sure?" I ask.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAcFlT1Ois
He nods and proceeds to carry her with ease with a smile on his face. 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqaHKZN5pO
I stood looking at him in awe.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBhmQpbA0f
A few minutes later...
We were walking in silence with our footsteps echoing down the streets.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPlim69dv7
"Look,"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nZ2jDRRYH
He looks at me in shock.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqREoPZAyA
"I am sorry for what happened." I sigh, "I will pay you as soon as I get my next paycheck." 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4H1JiZWSOW
"Oh no need," 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUU0wIp195Q
I stared at him and he looked back with a grin on his face.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo02nrOGI54
"Are you serious?"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQg0IZWvXV
"Yep. You don't have to do that. Besides, your sister's cute when she's silent,"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBTkehys2MP
I blink twice and look away in shame.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxnJYOtRCf
"Besides, I should apologize for my behavior today. I shouldn't have done that."237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdPl9wmeUH
I heaved a huge sigh of relief.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpeWW2bt89
"But I really want to take you out for dinner," 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnWofdjH1D
I nudged him playfully and look away.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYofvIYtaB3
Why?237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOmuik25g33
I was speechless. No one had ever asked me out on a date before. Maybe I was acting like a dick to him?237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QEYfCq1YU
"I am sorry Peter but I am not interested in dating anyone,"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmg08GKyViF
He looked sad and I felt sorry for him.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJstNnJv7U
"But lets be friends instead. Is that good enough for you?"237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcp06IIPBAg
He gave me a wide smile and nodded. My sister stirred in his arms and he shook her whispering nonsense as she snuggled in his arms. 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHF9QKhuvlt
The scene was so cute.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwuKUXDCnb
We get home and he left after putting my sister to sleep because my dad was around eating Chinese takeaway. He didn't order mine of course so I buy mine eat and go to my room to do my homework. As I did it, my mind flashed back to the part where he was rocking my sister to sleep and blushed.
He was right. 237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFmzTLqdJY
My sister did look cute when she was quiet.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9NJqwtTTP
