Helplessly in love

(Aubrey's pov)

"Rey, wake up. "

I heard a voice whispering into my ear. I knew who the voice belonged to." Isla"

My best friend.

"What do you want?" I asked grumpily.

"Are you serious?, still on bed by 7am" She yelled and her voice was loud enough to make my sleep disappear.

"What?, 7.am, f**k" I pushed her away and ran into the bathroom.

7.00 in the morning. Like what was I thinking?, sleeping so late.

I wore my snickers and combed my long hair not forgetting to put on my face cap. As I walked out of my small room, the aroma of mom's tossed bread filled the air. Too bad, I wasn't going to stay for breakfast.

"Mom, I'm off" I shouted.

"Stay for breakfast, hun"

"I'll come by, later in the day"

With that, I scurried off to my bike.

I'm Aubrey Cox. My mom's name is Rena Cox and i'm the only child. Well, f**k dad. I don't wanna talk about him. My best friend's name is Isla Gomez.

I don't have any particular job, I do many jobs depending on my time.

Here are my daily routine.

From 6 to 9 am, i work for Mrs maria at her home, preparing the kids for school and doing some house chores. From 10am to 1pm, i work at Mason 's restaurant. I just cook and wash the dishes. At 2 to 5pm, I work at Mr grumpy 's gallery shop.

At 6, i help mom at her small restaurant down the street. I'm a very busy person.

Apart from working so hard, i have a part time classes.

"Slow down, Rey" Isla warns.

"I'm late and I'm gonna loose my pay today if I don't get on .... "

I quietly shut my mouth up and continued riding.

I knew it was useless talking to her at this point.

In not less than 20 minutes, I parked my ride behind her house and jumped the stairs to Mrs Maria 's door. I knocked lightly on her door and Mrs Maria opened almost immediately.

"You came late, Aubrey" She started.

"I'm so sorry, Mrs Maria. I overslept and..."

"Cut the crap and get to work"

with that being said, she left leaving i and Isla alone.

"Bye Rey " I said and she smiled before walking up the street.

(Rowan's POV)

My eyes were glued on my laptop when my best friend came in.

"Manny, you're not going for lunch, are you?" He asked as if he doesn't know the answer to it.

I kept quiet still working on some documents.

"Your mom called me"

I rolled my eyes.

"I know, she calls everyday" I answered nonchalantly.

"When do you intend to answer her?"

"When I get a wi...fe"

I replied stressing the wifey word. At the thought of calling some lady my wife made me angry and sick. F**k women...

"You're kidding, right?"

I looked up at him and closed my laptop.

"Let's go for lunch"

I stood up and walk out.

~

"What do you mean?" He asked as we got out of the elevator together.

"Can we change the topic already?" I growled. He stared at me for awhile and nodded.

I ignited the car engine and zoomed off.

"Stop playing hard to get, Rowan" Mom was speaking so loud on the phone that i had to drop my phone on one of Zack 's lap.

"Mom, I can't make it home, i've a lot to do at the office" I said.

"I don't care if you have loads of work to do at the office, I want you here this evening"

She barked and ended the call.

"She can't be serious". I mumbled angrily.

"Best mom in the world".

Zack complimented her. He seemed to enjoy mom's taunting and a quest for a wife. I screeched my car abruptly in a halt to look at him.

"She won't stop til i get one. I mean women sucks, they have nothing to offer" I stated dryly.

"Women are wonderful creatures, Rowan. They might be crazy at some point but believe me, anyone who understands them, enjoys them. "

He's right in his own way. He's expecting a second child from Zoe, his wife. I can't date any other lady, not after what Anna had done 2 years ago.

We both heard a hard knock on my car window and that got our attention.

"Let's hear her" Zack said and I shrugged. I reluctantly wind down the car window and stared at the lady.

"Come out'

"What?"

~Aubrey's POV~

As I made out of MR. Mason 's restaurant, I went over to where i had packed my ride and saw them damaged. Like all parts were tittled all over the floor.

This is my life savings . This bike takes me round the city and helps me a lot at work. With rage, i walked to the car parked infront of it and knocked so hard on the window. I can't see the driver because the car was tinted.

Not so long, the car window was wind down revealing a young handsome man, blue eyeballs, pink lips, bla bla bla.

"Come down"

"Did I do something wrong?" He asked, biting his lower lip. Gosh!!. Is he a god or something?.

'Focus young Lady'. I told myself.

"You damaged my bike. Don't tell me you had no idea?"I asked suddenly feeling the rage again.

"So."

I stared at his cute lovely eyes. I gulped down nothing and looked away.

"Get a new one, b**ch" He cussed.

"What?"

B**ch?.

I angrily stomped my foot, opened his back seat and sat down.

"What in God's name are you doing?" He roared.

"We're purchasing a new one together. Take me to the bike store" I rested my back on the seat. The car was nice and cooler than I thought.That's why he lacked sense.

"I think it's not necessary, I mean give me your account number and I'll send the cash" The other man said. And he groaned loudly.

"Not after calling me a bitch. The earlier, the better"

I was enjoying the air conditioner and the car smelt nice. After working for hours,i think I've found what I needed.
