Gianna POV
Sometimes the best things in life come at the most terrible times but you still gotta appreciate them no matter what.
I laugh sometimes thinking about how my life turned around..... for the best of course
I stepped out of the cab and walked into my apartment, only to be greeted by silence
"Are they both asleep ?" I thought
"Miss rose, how was work ?" Stella asked coming out of Lola's room. She's the baby sitter I hired for Lola. You're probably wondering who Lola is right ?
She's my daughter
I hade her when I was eighteen and she's the best thing that's ever happened to me
"It was good " I answered Stella...to which she nodded "she's asleep and you're here..so I'll head home.... Good night " she said as we hugged goodbye " Get home safe" I whisper yell trying not to wake Lola
I walked into her room and gave her a quick kiss on her forehead before going to take a shower. I relaxed on my soft sheets.
" what a day " I said to myself remembering how i had to deal with with annoying people all day. Especially the guy who kept complaining about the food not being spicy enough . Good thing I gave him a little present.... If you know what I mean.
He's gonna be stuck in a toilet for hours.
God please forgive me, I know I shouldn't have done that but he gave me no choice cause he was being unnecessarily rude.
someone had to teach him a lesson.
I close my eyes and said a short prayer for me and my baby.
"Amen" I whispered before falling into a deep slumber.
"Ring!!!!!" "Ring!!!!!!!"
I woke up the next morning to the sound of my annoying alarm. Groaning i turned it off and walked to the bathroom to brush my teeth before going to wake my little angel.
I walked into her room to see her tiny legs and arms spread out on the her bed as she was slightly drooling.
"Sweetheart ?" I whispered while shaking her a little "come on...wake up " she only moves to hide under her pillows "you know you have to go to school"
This time she gets up but with only one eye open. I think she's still half asleep. One of the things i love about her is how mature she acts especially for her age.
She's four.
I got her ready for school and got ready for work before we had breakfast.
Well... she had breakfast.
" mommy " I heard her call to which I hummed " can we go get ice cream tomorrow ?" She asked with puppy eyes and besides tomorrow's Saturday...so why not ?
"Sure baby " I kissed both her cheeks while she giggled " come on, let's go " I dropped her off at school waved goodbye before heading to the diner.
I got to the diner on time only to see May.
May's the owner of the diner where I work, she's a lot older me but she's asked me to call by her name so she doesn't feel old and so I did. " May, what are you doing here ?"I asked surprised to she. She's suppose to be on vacation." Is that your way of saying hello ?"she asked giving me her signature sassy look.
" no 'nice to see you May', you look good May or how was vacation May ?" She fired again before I could speak.
"I'm sorry, I missed you ..you look amazing and how was your trip?" I asked giving her a bear hug laughing. " it was wonderful and I met someone " she smiled " ohhhhh what's this someone like ?" I asked laughing
"He's the sweetest, kind and actually pretty fun " she said with stars in her eyes. " someone's in love !" I said trying to teased her but she only laughs while filling me in on all the details.
May is a 48 year old strong woman with caramel skin, brown eyes and cheerful smile.
She was the only one that would hire me when I was pregnant and she's been helping me ever since then. I'm so grateful to have her in my life. I manage the diner now ....yes. since I was such a good employee she made me the manager.
After we were done chatting I decided to help in taking orders. I put on an apron and what to table 7.
I get there seeing two guys, one with dark brown locks and the one was a blonde .
"What can I getcha ?" I asked the blonde
" a burger with curly fries and water "he said
" and for you ?" I asked looking at the one with brown hair. He had pretty eyes...they look dull but suited him really well and he's quite handsome but pretty faces aren't all that
" just fries with a coke " he said staring intensely at me which made me slightly uncomfortable. I hope he's not one of those pervs..
He's voice was very..... different compare to his friend's voice. Whatever.... Why do I even care? "alright then, I'll be back with your order" I said walking towards the kitchen but i couldn't still feel his eyes on me. Somehow I had a bad feeling about this guy ,.... I don't know why.
