"No way! I am not babysitting my sister!" I yell.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqwzf4jUsy
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. 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0Rh0WNpUG
"Do you want me to call 911?" 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsKLNRtwTG
I look up at TK who was holding out his phone and I groaned.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZeqqzJ2LH
"I wish. The last time I did that my dad flipped his lid saying something like, 'Are you trying to ruin my career?' nonsense."299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsJYVrfKFUv
Yep. He's a lawyer.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvvzhNyjH1
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.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4C4JVpGre
Believe me. I know.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCWDK3UJBt
This is going to be a long day.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqGPIHZ3U5
A few hours later...299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblZTTxxVlE
"I want another strawberry smoothie!" screeched the hell spawn.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84mbSfbznD
"No!" I say walking passed her.
"I want a strawberry smoothie!" 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AZR3tkt3d
"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?299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQfUs7HJve
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.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FYUEq6Odd
"Shhh, its okay," the strong arms cuddled me. "Its okay,"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUyqccGeGm
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.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPq3yZv8gta
Suddenly the noise stopped.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmagZHWAQcW
Which was odd. 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MDyc8EYDS
Standing up, I go the dining room area and take a peek.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6lZH2H8Jn
There was Peter watching my sister sip her strawberry smoothie.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7YpvbDiVR
"Peter?"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNrtymYaUg
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?"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZU97hEttJQ
I sniffed and wiped away the tears. "I'm fine. Thanks,"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYE0mLXeY9A
"Peter! I want another one!" screeched my sister.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6mKpQUMoC
"Where are your manners Angel!" I screamed back.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOOq5fhrXK
Peter laughed at that, "Its okay. I'll get you another one,"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4btOvkqXd
"You know you are spending your money on her," I mutter through clenched teeth.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6tSu6Xfs4
"I don't mind," he said and took out his wallet with a huge grin.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fCsZPWNMl
I watched my sister scream with joy as TK appeared with a tray filled with smoothies, ice-scream then sighed.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxWYe2hPwi
At least she's quiet right? 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7fhWDwFZoI
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.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmfyYKGvkTc
"Thank you so much but I have to wake my sister and go home," I reply.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7F12ZFhmPB
Peter was shocked, "No! Don't you know its a bad idea to wake up a sleeping child?"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzT11tSV4g
I give a rueful chuckle at that.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyzs7xe2O6
"How about I help you carry her instead?"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Tw7HGHQRd
Shocked, I look at his physic and got worried. 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6370ISRjS
He looked so...thin.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYF53LtOhF
"Are you sure?" I ask.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCNWxGwrAf
He nods and proceeds to carry her with ease with a smile on his face. 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI20FAASdEz
I stood looking at him in awe.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOVdI0ESPP
A few minutes later...
We were walking in silence with our footsteps echoing down the streets.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHpmf22Maw
"Look,"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFyTJ3oEmS
He looks at me in shock.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZ6GWbfIsR
"I am sorry for what happened." I sigh, "I will pay you as soon as I get my next paycheck." 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbYcjxh6tU
"Oh no need," 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMrdNWIfy2
I stared at him and he looked back with a grin on his face.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhrE4pFTkm
"Are you serious?"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHs5i0Qnjw
"Yep. You don't have to do that. Besides, your sister's cute when she's silent,"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoWZ7hsRbB
I blink twice and look away in shame.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3cFn1lQpq
"Besides, I should apologize for my behavior today. I shouldn't have done that."299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDdkgcBkxE
I heaved a huge sigh of relief.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3y6J3CEf8
"But I really want to take you out for dinner," 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpM70yrBZaG
I nudged him playfully and look away.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUo0QC8ZlwM
Why?299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKWLpyCoaU
I was speechless. No one had ever asked me out on a date before. Maybe I was acting like a dick to him?299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRetxTPEBM1
"I am sorry Peter but I am not interested in dating anyone,"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTrgDCn0jk
He looked sad and I felt sorry for him.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWQH0cILBz
"But lets be friends instead. Is that good enough for you?"299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUatD1p4XQa
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. 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4W0FtQxKU
The scene was so cute.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgLe05JnmAA
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. 299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNCzIWs6X8
My sister did look cute when she was quiet.299Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6OsKV7rt5
