Drayce's P.O.V.
Mrs. Hines to our table to know what was wrong that needed her attention and Selena began her chaos. "Mrs. Hines I've been a very good customer of your diner…" "Yes" "…and I've never complained about anything" Mrs. Hines nods "Yes…is there anything wrong?" "Mrs. Hines, do you know a non-licensed undergraduate made this meal before me?" "Yes Jennifer told me about that and don't worry about that I had the food brought to my office for testing before it's been delivered and no one has complained so far".
"I don't care I can't let an immature newbie serve me with this or whatever this is…" "I don't understand?" Mrs. Hines said with a confused look on her face "Never mind please call the person who made this" "Okay please call Sapphira for me Jennie" "Ok ma I will do that right away" Jennifer said before running off to the kitchen.
…One minute later…
Everyone already knew what was on Selena's mind so we just held our breath as we waited for Sapphira, just then she came out of the kitchen; she had an apron on and she looked so cute as the strands of her messy bun was stuck on her face by sweat. 'Did I just say she looks cute? What is wrong with me lately?' Anyway as she came in Mrs. Hines began to question her "What is going on?" "I don't know ma'am" Sapphira said with total confusion written all over her face "A customer just complained about you just now" with a sharp look Sapphira turned and stared at Selena "Do you have a problem with the food that you ordered?" "Yes, I normally dine at top chefs' restaurant and by just looking at this and I can tell that it's not good enough for me to consume" "And how do you know it's not god enough?" "Because the one who made it is not good enough" Sapphira laughed and said "Says someone who can't make a simple sandwich".
We all laughed and Selena was very pissed "I don't need to do that; I have servants to do that for me" "Well you should be lucky and grateful that you have them working for an ungrateful bitch like you" "Who are you calling a bitch?". Selena was already fuming in anger "Is there any other person who looks like a bitch here other than you?" "Didn't your parents give you basic home training?" "What did you say?" Sapphira said getting angry all of a sudden.
Since Sapphira come here she was never angry with anything Selena said but the talk about her parents made her very angry. "I said didn't your parents give you basic home training? Are you deaf?" as Selena said that Sapphira slapped her on her face. Everyone was shocked by what she did, I for one was speechless "You dare slapped me?" Selena said in shock "Yes…I could do it again…what are you going to do?".
Things were getting out of hand and I need to stop this, "Ms. Hines fire this rift rat or else I will sue this diner" Selena said nearly blocking my ear drums "You will do no such thing" I said in a firm voice "Why are you on her side?" "Because you're really being an ungrateful bitch" "How dare you talk to me like that?" "Sorry to get you angry but there's nothing wrong with the food and I don't know what your problem with her is" "You know what I'm leaving" she said and walked out of the diner 'Good'.
I turned to Mrs. Hines and said "Sorry about that, you can go back to your office, no need for you to be here" "Thank you, son" Mrs. Hines said and walks to her office. Sapphira and her colleagues also went back to work and Henry on the other hand had already finished eating the pretzel. We continued having our milkshake and later we paid for our shakes, the yogurt and the pretzel. On our way out, Sapphira stopped us.
Surprisingly she came to me and said "Please can I talk to you for a second?" "Sure" with that we went to a corner and she began to introduce herself "Well I'm Sapphira, I sit in front of you in history class" "Drayce nice to meet you" "I called you here to thank you for helping me and saving the diner". "No problem, it was no big deal" "Anyway see you at school?" "Sure" with that she went back to the kitchen and Henry walked over to where I was with a smirk on his face. 'How did that go?" "She just thanked me" "And? what did you say?" "I said, 'No problem, it was no big deal'…did I say something bad?" "I don't know what to say man but you just keep trying to get close to her" "No I don't, why in the world will I want to be close to her?".
Henry gives me the look; he only gives me that look when he wants to scold me and all I can do is act innocent and here he goes "Why would you want to be close to her? Because you like her dummy and don't give me that face, I know you like her but because of that uncle of yours', you are always caged where ever you go" "Am I?" "Think about it" with that he walked away from the diner to catch up with his girlfriend and her friends.
'Henry is right; I'm starting to like this girl but what for what reason? Well she's smart and beautiful…but there is something drawing me to her like a power source. What could that be? Let me get to know her and find out.'
