"No way! I am not babysitting my sister!" I yell.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVjYCewFPD
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. 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2Dskp0n4p
"Do you want me to call 911?" 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBu6kifgAJ
I look up at TK who was holding out his phone and I groaned.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BSfmGfHSN
"I wish. The last time I did that my dad flipped his lid saying something like, 'Are you trying to ruin my career?' nonsense."343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsw4qW5mtFs
Yep. He's a lawyer.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4RtOCi6rw
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.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGYeiI7ZM7
Believe me. I know.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbxHHWHcb4f
This is going to be a long day.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnq3mYpg14B
A few hours later...343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvDAoGoiss
"I want another strawberry smoothie!" screeched the hell spawn.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQBp5hiIb4
"No!" I say walking passed her.
"I want a strawberry smoothie!" 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTqAVYMn5k
"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?343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKldBHo1WN
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.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwQnWJn6JE
"Shhh, its okay," the strong arms cuddled me. "Its okay,"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BDl8E4ndf
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.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7cEz9BuSX
Suddenly the noise stopped.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7kH2l8pqg
Which was odd. 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQ7IMDUjC9
Standing up, I go the dining room area and take a peek.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAWu823wa1
There was Peter watching my sister sip her strawberry smoothie.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNqPzcxGOp
"Peter?"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFufdjWIBf
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?"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOJUZJaS7PH
I sniffed and wiped away the tears. "I'm fine. Thanks,"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c9aftmFkR
"Peter! I want another one!" screeched my sister.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjr1KXriEFd
"Where are your manners Angel!" I screamed back.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZAKRHA5ji
Peter laughed at that, "Its okay. I'll get you another one,"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7AalttRo7
"You know you are spending your money on her," I mutter through clenched teeth.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72yllWkLjK
"I don't mind," he said and took out his wallet with a huge grin.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0oRoIM9j2
I watched my sister scream with joy as TK appeared with a tray filled with smoothies, ice-scream then sighed.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1ZXVvdEQ1
At least she's quiet right? 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx5KBScIF6
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.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdQsFP2azd
"Thank you so much but I have to wake my sister and go home," I reply.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsXYPHmuRl
Peter was shocked, "No! Don't you know its a bad idea to wake up a sleeping child?"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9G6BocaIU
I give a rueful chuckle at that.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvxmHtFDUC
"How about I help you carry her instead?"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlizKZYvSkt
Shocked, I look at his physic and got worried. 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUz5OUszStJ
He looked so...thin.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZxcRFbWAf
"Are you sure?" I ask.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIC6jgY2HmW
He nods and proceeds to carry her with ease with a smile on his face. 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VnnwpRn6J
I stood looking at him in awe.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopPYftFrpi
A few minutes later...
We were walking in silence with our footsteps echoing down the streets.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgi3zEuXyE
"Look,"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBnzE29fn3
He looks at me in shock.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPz3DnyL0l
"I am sorry for what happened." I sigh, "I will pay you as soon as I get my next paycheck." 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMevXqmJBK9
"Oh no need," 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ZWE53ocRu
I stared at him and he looked back with a grin on his face.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmZexeVHbs
"Are you serious?"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrPvzLLvqs
"Yep. You don't have to do that. Besides, your sister's cute when she's silent,"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CXlBVPNOu
I blink twice and look away in shame.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc36e7WokPb
"Besides, I should apologize for my behavior today. I shouldn't have done that."343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uhz42aXmj
I heaved a huge sigh of relief.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8RSohnKDG
"But I really want to take you out for dinner," 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kPBGzDn3t
I nudged him playfully and look away.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwqeJpUKht
Why?343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8rst2boLx
I was speechless. No one had ever asked me out on a date before. Maybe I was acting like a dick to him?343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUsiMGta2V
"I am sorry Peter but I am not interested in dating anyone,"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcuSC3TASXP
He looked sad and I felt sorry for him.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCi5D5dxy7S
"But lets be friends instead. Is that good enough for you?"343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXxi7qk6xds
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. 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq272q548d3
The scene was so cute.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRMZKBm26w
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. 343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0avJbPOBHm
My sister did look cute when she was quiet.343Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbOH8ErmMW
