CHAPTER THREE - LETS ROCK IT

CHAPTER THREE || LETS ROCK IT.

Riele's Pov

Another morning, another day, another blah, blah, blah...urgghh. Well, time to go to work. I got dressed, ate and went to speak to my mom when i heard noises outside. Curiosity gets the better of me and i decide to skip seeing my mom to go check out what's happening . I step out and to my surprise i find a man angrily talking to my mom. From the look of his face, it seems like he even wants to eat her. Man, the guy's face is really bad.It's even funny.Now back to business

" wait, wait, wait wait.. what is going on here ? " i say as i step into the conversation.

" Ah!! So you don't even know who i am or what's going on? " The gorilla- faced man said.

" erhm, excuse me! Am i supposed to know you. Mom wants going on here"

" See, she doesn't even respect "

" My dear, nothing is wrong Just go to work'

" Now will you all just shut up and someone tell me something "i shouted sending a signal to the man to stop blabbering and speak.

" If you must know, your mother owes me money. Money she collected from me to pay off your father's funeral expenses"

" Susanne Marie Lawrence what is all this !!! " i' m actually disappointed and stressed out with all the debts that keep coming .

" You know what, give us a week, we will settle everything" i try to plead with the man putting on my best puppy dog eyes and that seems to do the trick because he agrees but not before growling in anger and later stalking off whispering curse words. Only the heavens knows what he is saying but he better pray i don't hear him because if i do, oh save me dear lord.... i sure will whoop his ass. Without sparing a glance at my mom, i set out to work.

" You better get your act together i' m getting sick and tired of you. I ain't gonna wait forever, you better do it or ----"

" hey, hey, hey better shut that trap of yours which is disturbing the whole hotel. I mean your voice isn't even --'

" Mr Simon please what is it ? i was just cleaning the -"

"La la la la .don't even talk. Have you even cleaned this thing well? " he said touching the furniture i was cleaning before sizing me up.

"Lazy bones, if you don't get back to work i will just fire you, nonsense" He stalks off immediately and i also go straight to the staff room to clear my head and thankfully i find my best friend there packing up towels.

" Girl, what is with the long face now"

" isn't it that manager again" frowning isn't really my thing but i'm frustrated so i scrunch up my face for her to know that i' m not okay.

" Ah, so he is still harassing youu? I think you should give in"

"What are you saying?"

" You know what i mean, Just give him what he wants'

"never ! this old fool. No. To hell with that"

" Alright then just forget it" Ewww this old manager. Thinking about it just gives me goosebumps.

"Let's talk about something else"

" okay. What's up"

"That reminds me , i want to be part of that part - time job of yours. I really need that extra money".

" Really, why though"

" Mom borrowed money from one freaky guy for dad's funeral and he is now at her throat for the money"

"Oh my!! That's something else. But are you sure because it involves a little body part" She says scratching her head as if she just got bitten by a mosquito

"I'm not doing prostitution. na dah! it ain't working babe. Try again"

" Oh come on Rie, do you want mom to be imprisoned or you are gonna sacrifice your body?" My mom deserves to be happy. She's been grieving since died and --

" helloo, are you there"

" oh yeah"

" Welcome back to planet earth. How was your trip to space? "

(rolling eyes) " Whatever.. i will do this"

" Really, whooo let's get ready to go shopping "

"Oh boy. Here we go" We collected our stuff, changed and stepped out of the hotel since our shift was over.

" whoooooooooooooo. on guard mate.. we've got a lot of shopping to do"
