Maybe people think this is the most fun place to be. But not for me. New York's most beloved bar was extremely crowded. The hustle and bustle of people and the smell of alcohol was overwhelming. The gambling of motorcycle gangs and the smell of cigarettes made me want to scream.
Unfortunately, one of the employees couldn't make it today. That makes me even busier.
I actually had to work the night shift today. Because I have to pay the rent. This month I have to pay it. Because my boyfriend has been paying for my daily meals. Yes, the two of us have been living together for a year.
"Hey pretty girl! Look at table number 8! I asked for five glasses of Texas root beer! Why aren't there any!" the loud voice annoyed me.
I rushed to the table and brought them what they asked for. Unfortunately, I stepped too fast and bumped into a motorcycle gang member.
The glass shattered on the floor. It was so messed up. The biker gang guy's gaze was like he wanted to strangle me. I knew the jacket with the lion on the back was very feared here.
"Sorry, sorry I'll take care of this," I said guiltily.
"Oh shit! This bar is so bad!" the motorcycle gang guy's face was creepy.
Now the boss came with a face as if he wanted to eat me up.
"Selena, you really messed things up today!"
"Fire him! He's a slow and sloppy employee!" said the biker gang who were customers at this bar.
I looked down at those words. My eyes were glassy now. My heart was in turmoil.
"Selena! You're such a stupid employee! I'm firing you right now!"
"Please, don't fire me! I have to pay the rent," I said in a pleading tone.
"Leave right now! Pack your things now! I won't let this business go down because of you!" my boss said in a high tone.
I tried to plead by kneeling down to him. But he kicked me violently. I hurt my temple. The people around me laughed at what happened to me.
I walked out of the bar cursing. I hoped the bar would burn down soon. Damn that boss is really crazy.
I don't know what else to do now. My only job is gone. I don't know where to work anymore.
I arrived at the front door of the house. I opened the lock quickly. Hoping Cody will hug me because I'm not okay.
"Cody baby, I'm home," I said as I walked to find him.
My eyes widened when I saw my messy room. Was there a thief here? My closet was also very chaotic. Even my mother's precious necklace was missing.
My boyfriend's belongings were also missing. His clothes, shoe collection and laptop are all missing. I looked at the messy kitchen. I wanted to scream. On the kitchen table was a dirty milk glass and underneath it was a paper. I read it with a pounding heart.
"I'm sorry Selena. But we have to part ways soon. I'm sick of being in love with a poor woman like you. You always make my life difficult. Don't look for me anymore. Let's just say we never met," my hands trembled as I read this letter.
I was devastated. My hand immediately threw the glass to the floor in a fit of rage. Suddenly, the phone rang. I think it was the rent bill.
"Hello, sorry I can't pay the rent yet. Give me some time," I said quickly.
"Oh my! How unfortunate for you. Hey dummy, I'm calling from a loan. Are you the woman called Selena Watson?"
"That's right, I'm Selena Watson. What's going on? I feel like this must be wrong,"
"You are Cody Simpson's guarantor. All calls and bills are directed to you. So you have to pay all the debts,"
