"No way! I am not babysitting my sister!" I yell.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeS6DNdgus
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. 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJRNF3bKPx
"Do you want me to call 911?" 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPTbhkTBpY
I look up at TK who was holding out his phone and I groaned.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRmO5ehpuk
"I wish. The last time I did that my dad flipped his lid saying something like, 'Are you trying to ruin my career?' nonsense."288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSayMMIfcm
Yep. He's a lawyer.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2qrQYCuKu
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.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WpyyVNkFa
Believe me. I know.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspSuMu0Jeo
This is going to be a long day.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW51ygW8mps
A few hours later...288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBddS9oVCg
"I want another strawberry smoothie!" screeched the hell spawn.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Y6BxbwJi6
"No!" I say walking passed her.
"I want a strawberry smoothie!" 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKssDbEc7RE
"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?288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcELDlKUF1
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.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaBZL5lPIW
"Shhh, its okay," the strong arms cuddled me. "Its okay,"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdrY1aOyi5
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.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94EMmzYfCl
Suddenly the noise stopped.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9y54XAV7el
Which was odd. 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjvW0DxRPZ
Standing up, I go the dining room area and take a peek.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJrGr1694W
There was Peter watching my sister sip her strawberry smoothie.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsyBylecAp
"Peter?"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p6xvdd8D1
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?"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsklxHYnhx
I sniffed and wiped away the tears. "I'm fine. Thanks,"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1TB8wn3HL
"Peter! I want another one!" screeched my sister.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4iATWEayj
"Where are your manners Angel!" I screamed back.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPheSIVwtE
Peter laughed at that, "Its okay. I'll get you another one,"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFav3O3sFy5
"You know you are spending your money on her," I mutter through clenched teeth.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd6PoFDkga
"I don't mind," he said and took out his wallet with a huge grin.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWXYf7Lc9sX
I watched my sister scream with joy as TK appeared with a tray filled with smoothies, ice-scream then sighed.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKS35DDAdxN
At least she's quiet right? 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTeEa3HWyQ
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.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2x9PJYmne
"Thank you so much but I have to wake my sister and go home," I reply.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB156nLK5Cv
Peter was shocked, "No! Don't you know its a bad idea to wake up a sleeping child?"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbLKlv9wtUV
I give a rueful chuckle at that.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcr9DAkhcRp
"How about I help you carry her instead?"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbZa8wMEfa
Shocked, I look at his physic and got worried. 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxPJwKvlKG0
He looked so...thin.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhd3FS6OWFh
"Are you sure?" I ask.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqFkckZsiY
He nods and proceeds to carry her with ease with a smile on his face. 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwkT73QN7t
I stood looking at him in awe.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaBJ5S8raJ
A few minutes later...
We were walking in silence with our footsteps echoing down the streets.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtz6sl8z92e
"Look,"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNaSea3QSuo
He looks at me in shock.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvoY5k2am9
"I am sorry for what happened." I sigh, "I will pay you as soon as I get my next paycheck." 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMdSJuP6N0
"Oh no need," 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVcmGscVVb
I stared at him and he looked back with a grin on his face.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfKhfP7WZz
"Are you serious?"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmERF7a5tc1
"Yep. You don't have to do that. Besides, your sister's cute when she's silent,"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHP4sBHXLj1
I blink twice and look away in shame.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEurgfNwNdT
"Besides, I should apologize for my behavior today. I shouldn't have done that."288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HkNv2Z2X3
I heaved a huge sigh of relief.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMzOm2LeUE
"But I really want to take you out for dinner," 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsthKhogYI7
I nudged him playfully and look away.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4zJDu2Qe8
Why?288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtgq0iSNAE
I was speechless. No one had ever asked me out on a date before. Maybe I was acting like a dick to him?288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgJY9Aij2o
"I am sorry Peter but I am not interested in dating anyone,"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6pZ0hgwHv
He looked sad and I felt sorry for him.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qhOKaPyJp
"But lets be friends instead. Is that good enough for you?"288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidK5wKZZSI
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. 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQuYaNvVSV
The scene was so cute.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1eJ1Afmdt9
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. 288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3wH1E3VCX
My sister did look cute when she was quiet.288Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91YOF7zZNl
