"No way! I am not babysitting my sister!" I yell.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquYJaZdC4D
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. 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjYJAxmBF9
"Do you want me to call 911?" 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIl149WNSbJ
I look up at TK who was holding out his phone and I groaned.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxaDB5ZZXa
"I wish. The last time I did that my dad flipped his lid saying something like, 'Are you trying to ruin my career?' nonsense."292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hPGM93AT2
Yep. He's a lawyer.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡebgvMlHeqy
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.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gZyRL2J8W
Believe me. I know.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwyoOONNSA
This is going to be a long day.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDznuZNnbWF
A few hours later...292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSb6mEADUFx
"I want another strawberry smoothie!" screeched the hell spawn.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0md3V2mCF
"No!" I say walking passed her.
"I want a strawberry smoothie!" 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSzo4CeZ8c
"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?292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGve2Pm7LE
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.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktqI5uKLys
"Shhh, its okay," the strong arms cuddled me. "Its okay,"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTqFVaX5fs
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.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevgN2fc8vp
Suddenly the noise stopped.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CHQ5vSLbs
Which was odd. 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1oTBTODO0
Standing up, I go the dining room area and take a peek.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6qvfQZjrL
There was Peter watching my sister sip her strawberry smoothie.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTMCdGJeJU
"Peter?"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTK2zV9S5sW
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?"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IoY1gPSsP
I sniffed and wiped away the tears. "I'm fine. Thanks,"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiX56SVyvSx
"Peter! I want another one!" screeched my sister.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEo3bPS9FR
"Where are your manners Angel!" I screamed back.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ00Hylk2A9A
Peter laughed at that, "Its okay. I'll get you another one,"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WUNYL6vaQ
"You know you are spending your money on her," I mutter through clenched teeth.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Bw9aONo0I
"I don't mind," he said and took out his wallet with a huge grin.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcht7VclTYz
I watched my sister scream with joy as TK appeared with a tray filled with smoothies, ice-scream then sighed.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjY73h6WmqH
At least she's quiet right? 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tNSA6NuJH
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.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiO3xu2vcTQ
"Thank you so much but I have to wake my sister and go home," I reply.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6b25PQTiX
Peter was shocked, "No! Don't you know its a bad idea to wake up a sleeping child?"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUAaupc3Se
I give a rueful chuckle at that.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1pBv288N2
"How about I help you carry her instead?"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02qJCSzwUF
Shocked, I look at his physic and got worried. 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDthLzQ23J
He looked so...thin.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEMgAbSDIP
"Are you sure?" I ask.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKZAKuGQnO
He nods and proceeds to carry her with ease with a smile on his face. 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRNp8PxOpc
I stood looking at him in awe.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpO9pAOWB8
A few minutes later...
We were walking in silence with our footsteps echoing down the streets.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhx7czkL5X
"Look,"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSevG6MgLM
He looks at me in shock.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJpJjJYj4J
"I am sorry for what happened." I sigh, "I will pay you as soon as I get my next paycheck." 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwcotpWeMTH
"Oh no need," 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwttBRPw3TU
I stared at him and he looked back with a grin on his face.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlDrG7IR2A
"Are you serious?"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsb2MDew9f
"Yep. You don't have to do that. Besides, your sister's cute when she's silent,"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3OBAULImjX
I blink twice and look away in shame.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMNyVr1BWjq
"Besides, I should apologize for my behavior today. I shouldn't have done that."292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUnfr5B8NZ
I heaved a huge sigh of relief.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wGF9zkA4O
"But I really want to take you out for dinner," 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtK676x8Wz
I nudged him playfully and look away.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrjUADyJdGi
Why?292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv27nmMOyts
I was speechless. No one had ever asked me out on a date before. Maybe I was acting like a dick to him?292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKYnlmhtlZ
"I am sorry Peter but I am not interested in dating anyone,"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EUjqpNB11
He looked sad and I felt sorry for him.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwsmAyRXl7
"But lets be friends instead. Is that good enough for you?"292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgRrKrzNfH
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. 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxNA6xV5os
The scene was so cute.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6D3CIiJBv
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. 292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9dLL1EQRr
My sister did look cute when she was quiet.292Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZerixYMiV1
