"No way! I am not babysitting my sister!" I yell.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxuHYveTLo
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. 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j60xLwiAP
"Do you want me to call 911?" 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YgiuvMwoi
I look up at TK who was holding out his phone and I groaned.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ45eoW8NLeO
"I wish. The last time I did that my dad flipped his lid saying something like, 'Are you trying to ruin my career?' nonsense."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vpvXmKPWV
Yep. He's a lawyer.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhrYWdmvQC
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.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡox2VOTG0bO
Believe me. I know.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOhLeG0BuN
This is going to be a long day.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3tcO2Xs6H
A few hours later...244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PDhuocU3g
"I want another strawberry smoothie!" screeched the hell spawn.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDK1X6cHgnl
"No!" I say walking passed her.
"I want a strawberry smoothie!" 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOIheHB3yv
"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?244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPYM5ITlKj5
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.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyY98JLKuSR
"Shhh, its okay," the strong arms cuddled me. "Its okay,"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5etzQxFdgd
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.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMYXJmcd7f
Suddenly the noise stopped.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0qMh9k8Pp
Which was odd. 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdU30Cyz9X5
Standing up, I go the dining room area and take a peek.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsQm4YEw6qm
There was Peter watching my sister sip her strawberry smoothie.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO3fOFnAOh7
"Peter?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡft6TYTgEGW
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?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRcsDBBqhg
I sniffed and wiped away the tears. "I'm fine. Thanks,"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYvor2shR0
"Peter! I want another one!" screeched my sister.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqECx1m4Np
"Where are your manners Angel!" I screamed back.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZ8AXt9bTo
Peter laughed at that, "Its okay. I'll get you another one,"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3Li0bEBpa
"You know you are spending your money on her," I mutter through clenched teeth.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiDyY49No1
"I don't mind," he said and took out his wallet with a huge grin.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCT7KtoAlS
I watched my sister scream with joy as TK appeared with a tray filled with smoothies, ice-scream then sighed.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG19i2LwWw5
At least she's quiet right? 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyBHhgGEvj
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.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UExHB1ozt
"Thank you so much but I have to wake my sister and go home," I reply.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PdxQmvrsS
Peter was shocked, "No! Don't you know its a bad idea to wake up a sleeping child?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jt5D67f8T
I give a rueful chuckle at that.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwh2GJU4E1
"How about I help you carry her instead?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFUD7sK2qg
Shocked, I look at his physic and got worried. 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaVN1XKrRl
He looked so...thin.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dj9ZQDqUS
"Are you sure?" I ask.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfbEeCbea7M
He nods and proceeds to carry her with ease with a smile on his face. 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwx6w946brM
I stood looking at him in awe.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIE5CanGDjT
A few minutes later...
We were walking in silence with our footsteps echoing down the streets.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRiTz8Cej4
"Look,"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTFaahcjwn
He looks at me in shock.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TysxnYoRk
"I am sorry for what happened." I sigh, "I will pay you as soon as I get my next paycheck." 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObar5SFNva
"Oh no need," 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡraeaUf35dS
I stared at him and he looked back with a grin on his face.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVKb5z5x03
"Are you serious?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqYtkRVRaa
"Yep. You don't have to do that. Besides, your sister's cute when she's silent,"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04LLkJcAU1
I blink twice and look away in shame.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83dE5ZDnky
"Besides, I should apologize for my behavior today. I shouldn't have done that."244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7cOjRXBe0
I heaved a huge sigh of relief.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4hR6NSey1
"But I really want to take you out for dinner," 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPdCabVjji
I nudged him playfully and look away.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4y7Ww266Dm
Why?244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkZcACkW2b
I was speechless. No one had ever asked me out on a date before. Maybe I was acting like a dick to him?244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4uOJJmJA2
"I am sorry Peter but I am not interested in dating anyone,"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxT5fFOJl7x
He looked sad and I felt sorry for him.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhp509kV9L
"But lets be friends instead. Is that good enough for you?"244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNf7Dhb7TJY
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. 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygSSoRCfyc
The scene was so cute.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzx1mlMtzNf
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. 244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUbPojHXEM
My sister did look cute when she was quiet.244Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhm7paKVnPt
