6 Chapter Six - The Bay

"You will fire me?" Teresa nodded.

"Yes, I always caught you texting and chatting on your cell phone!" The manager said angrily and he walks outside furiously. And when the manager was left, Teresa blamed Chanel. "You are the culprit, if you told me right away that he is coming, this won't happened!" Teresa said with his angry expression. "But I warned you but you ignored me," Chanel said.

"What ever you say its all your fault! I lost my job because of you!" Teresa said angrily.

…

At 12 o'clock at midnight their manager sent them home, as they walked down the street, near the bay, they felt sad. "How about now, we don't have a job anymore! It's because of you!" Teresa said still blaming her. But Chanel didn't say anything because she was worrying about her schooling. Her parents don't know that she was working at the shoe factory, they sends her money for her tuition but Martha doesn't give it to her, so Chanel was forced to work to pay for her education. "Why are you so quiet, are you guilty, right?" Teresa nodded. "Teresa I'm innocent, don't blame me, but don't worry we'll find something else,"

Chanel said.

"When? do you think we can find a job easily? The life was too hard without a job!" Teresa furrowed brows. "Have faith," Chanel said.

"Well, maybe I can find a job easily, but you, I don't think so," she smirked.

"I know Teresa, you are smart, it's easy for you to find another job," Chanel said,

"And I'm beautiful," Teresa confidently said as she raise her left eyebrow..

Chanel just smiled at her.

"Don't you think I'm beautiful huh?" She nodded.

"You are beautiful Teresa, okay?" Chanel said.

"Actually, I'm not fit to be a shoe maker," she scoffed, and then suddenly, Teresa's boyfriend arrived driving his motorcycle.

She soon rode in and left Chanel behind in the middle of the night.

Chanel was now alone walking, and saw a light pole beside the bay, so she decided to sit there first. Chanel sits on a low fence next to the seaside. And she was so tired and she lay down there and looked up at the night sky. She had many things in her mind. She was sick and tired of getting back to her aunt house, but she was helpless. "What will happen to me now? I don't have work anymore," she sighed. She was suddenly fallen asleep, a few moments later she woke up when she heard a trampled came from the sea.

Chanel turned her head on the sea and take a look, but it was too dark and she can't see anything. She rolled her eyes, few people walking, then suddenly the pole of the light was turned off. She felt scared, it was so dark and she was about to leave, then suddenly she was startled when she heard a voice. "Do you want to buy a toy?" A young voice said. Chanel turned around and there she saw a teenage boy bearing a bag contains his selling toys. The boy approached her. He smiled at her. "Oh, you scared me!" Chanel said when she saw him.

"I'm sorry miss, do you want to buy one?" He asked. "Why are you selling in the middle of the night?" She wondered.

"I just want to finished this all, because I am going back to my home town village so soon!" He smiled. "Okay then, but it's so dark in here, do you think do you still have buyer in this hour?"

"Yes, sometimes, do you want to buy?" he offered. Chanel look his toys inside the big bag, it contains dolls and toy guns. "If only my little brother was here," she said.

Then the vendor took a toy gun and gave it to her. "I will give you a discount, only two dollars, take this," he smiled. Chanel took her 2 dollar coins on her purse and gave it to him. "Thank you," the vendor smiled.

"Your welcome, I'll go home," Chanel said then she got up, but suddenly she went back and sat down again. "Don'y worry, the light will be turn on soon," the vendor smiled.

"What happened to the light anyway?" She asked.

"It's been like that for a few days now, sometimes it light sometimes it off, it didn't fix yet," the boy said.

"Okay," she smiled.

"But the sea was bright a little, look, there is a light house over there," the young vendor said as he pointed out the light house over there,

"I think so," Chanel said as she glanced at it.

"Well, I must be going home, thank you for buying, hope to see you again!" The young vendor said.
