Theo
Did he find out about me?
How?
“What are you doing here?” His horrible shocking eyes ran around the area for checking. Dare to look around, I try to calm my tense body first and think about convincing him. With a smile, I answered.
“Actually..” Throat clear. Think… Lie again.
“No lie Miss. Rose or I called Mr. Ronald.” Ahh Shit! He picked up the phone and dialed someone… no he’s dialing Ronald’s number. Grabbing his phone I stopped him.. God, how is he going to agree with me? Can I tell him the truth and in return his promise?
“Laura threw me out.” His mouth opens to speak but shut again. The good bow he's speechless also. What can I say now?
“When?” When? Umm...
“Three days before.” He turned in frustration and mumbled something. A fist came on the wall. Ouch… beyond unexpected.
“Miss Rose, you're lying to Mr. Ronald. You're my responsibility behind him and what if he knows?” His face gave me mixed feelings of fear and anger.
“I need to tell him.” Shaking my head, my cold fingers grab his bicep. Oh, he's... immediately I let him go.
“Please.. don't. Look, it's my life and he has no right to it. My decision for living here is mine. My contract now ends with his company so there's no chance of living in that apartment.” After the last word, my throat dried like sand. Whoa... I never talk so much.
“But not here. We can find a new place.”
“It's good and cheap.”
“Dangerous and scary.”
“Small and for living.” Rubbing his neck in frustration he turned again and mumbled. It's cold outside so leave, please. Thank god he doesn't know about my job right now. So zip up your lips here.
“Fine but please stay safe here. I'm here so you can go inside.”
What is he standing outside for the whole night?
“Theo you can go now. Don't stand outside here like a bodyguard. You're not for my security and don't tell him or I’ll kill you here.” Turing, I left him there and closed the door.
Now there's a need to be worried. What if Theo told him? What if Ronald takes a step in anger? My foot continuously walked here and there in thinking about his reaction. Why am I so scared? Fuck him... he's not here or not even called me. Three days and he's not here. Yeah, he's not a simple person but at least I know if I’m okay or not. I missed him so much.
Holding my phone in hand my eyes froze on time. One minute left... just one and it's happening today... I sent a delightful and sweet message to Jessie. Today is Jesse's birthday and the most beautiful thing for me is that I'm here this time. Every year I just cried for her because my sister was not here with me. Waiting for her reply I sat in bed for two hours but she never replied. Her anger is like Ronald but I’m not sad...
“Happy birthday my sister.” Laughing, I slept for the first time with great satisfaction from others. The next day I just waited for when evening came and I earned some money for my food. When evening came I reached the address and five more people joined me from outside. They explain to us our job in which we're just part of the serving team. It's a big grand party in a hotel.
We all wore our uniforms and reached the hotel. My eyes are running on every spot. Lights and classy decoration. Our team is working inside. One hour later the guests started arriving.
“You know I never thought my night would be like that. See you can also earn double here.” My brows come together like a v shape in confusion when a girl comes and starts talking with me.
“What? This is a high profile party so I’m sure some rich handsome man will also come here. You can just give him a sign and he can...” Shaking my head I ignore her words and keep myself busy. I'm not like her. Just a few hours and money, that's it and tomorrow I’m going to find a new job.
“Shut up! She's not like that. Look at her, she's a love type girl...”
“Hey, do you know who's outside?”
“Who?” Every face turns towards her.
“Jessie the famous businessman's sister.” Here my face also turns. God no...
“Hey, watch it!” The glass I’m holding slipped from my hand but before it broke someone took it. My shocked eyes found a card placed on the counter. It's a party.
Birthday party
How can I be so irresponsible? Why not just check? They're talking but I slip from between and come outside where my eyes are set on a man. He's beautiful and handsome in a suit. Ronald wearing a white tuxedo giving orders to everyone. He's here. My Ronald...
No
“It's also an announcement so I want everything on time. Clear.” He's talking to the manager. Hiding behind a pillar I’m eating him. My legs start shaking when he turns. He’s made in heaven. His every inch just melted like a cake. I know he's the bomb and I’m fire but right now just met together and explode.
“Everyone inside.” Wait this means Ronald and Jessie are also here. Shit now this is a problem for me. Ronald does not want me here and Jessie what if she saw me here like that then. Why god you keep throwing me into problems? Not even a single breath I let out with relief.
Outside the low murmurs start running so this means the party has already started now I have no option to quit or leave.
“Can I serve from here?”
“No.”
“Please...” The manager starts shouting because they're filling very slowly.
“I'm experienced in that. Before coming here I worked in a club.” He thinks for a second then answers.
“Fine and fill faster.” Nodding I start filling the glasses. One hour and our team is doing great. Then I hear a voice. A relief I've been searching for three days now runs in my body. He's here talking...
“You're smiling.” A boy next to me is talking to me.
“Huh?”
“Yes, the first time I saw you smiling.” Passing him a smile I start working again.
“Rose, stop what you are doing and come outside.” What? He went after giving me an order. He's calling me outside to serve.
“But...”
“They can handle it here so you can serve outside.”
“But..”
“You need money right so obey the order. I'm the manager here.” With his shouting, everyone looked at me.
“Do your work.” Nodding, I picked up the plate and came outside slowly. I know the plate is going down when they come in front of me. Outside everyone is busy talking with each other. Far away Jessie stands smiling at everyone holding Sebastian's hand. Other hand, Jenna glued herself with Ronald.
Hiding my face I start serving. Two times went well and I hope next time also.
“Excuse me?” It's Laura's voice that stopped me. Don't turn, just walk and ignore her. Like I never hear her, my footsteps keep going.
“Hey.” A hand grabbed me. Shit!
“Hey, you! I'm talking to you...wait.” She tries to talk to me.
“Wait! Why not are you turning? God look at her.” Her face came forward and she looked at me. For a second I saw Ronald's anger and a devil smile makes me believe that she’s going to do something bad.
“My..my look at who's here? God Rose is that you? You're here like that..” She pointed towards drinks and laughed. I’m diving in water. What if Ronald finds out?
“I'm so sad for you. Three days before you're in our office and now you're serving for us. Difference right? Look at you, where are you now? I know everyone wants money for living and we can give you if you want but don't spread your..”
“Well, I know how to become a successful person. Maybe you’re telling me the way you earn the money but news flash i’m not interested. Remember the word hard work, that's what I’m doing here is not like you..”
“Jessie, look who's here?” Before I completed my word she cut me by calling Jessie. But before she hears Laura by grabbing her arm I drag her with me.
“Your fight is with me. Don't call her. It's her birthday party and I don't want her to feel embarrassed after watching me like that.” I hate when she smiles. It's not a real one but I know thousands of devil thoughts behind that.
“Why not?”
“Please.”
“It's fun.”
“Not for me. Don't do that.”
“Beg.”
“What?”
“On your knees right now.” If she was convinced after my begging then why not. Just for Jessie.
“Fine.” Slowly I fell on my knees in front of her and bowed my head. Hearing her footsteps going back I looked up. Winking, she turned and walked away. What? Was she gone without saying anything? It’s simple? Closing my eyes I let out a deep breath and sat for a minute. Hate this is the word I love the most right now.
“Excuse me?”
No
Shit
Not again
