Austen blinked severally, his heart missed a beat when he beheld her perfect face
Her face is small and every p@rt of it is cute and small too, her nose,l-ips, ears….her brows are like someone sculptured them
In his whole life, he has never seen a beauty like the one he’s staring at right now but….her eyeba-lls aren’t moving, she just kept sitting, looking at a direction
“Boss!” Ray said loudly, bringing him back to his s-en-ses
Nikita quic-kly stood from his l@ps and he stood too, adjusting his suit
“I’m so sorry sir, I’m sorry… Nikita what have you done” Hammy said, coming to the scene
” It wasn’t my fault sir, I stumbled on something” Nikita replied slowly
” I’m Hammy, the owner of this cafe, I’m so sorry about her mistake” Hammy said
” I should be the one apologizing, I sat too carelessly, my leg was on the way so she stumbled on my shoes” he replied
” I’m sorry sir, I can’t see, I’d have avoided it” Nikita said and her voice is ma-king him want to listen to her again, so tiny like a baby’s
“It’s…ok, I’m sorry” he said, still staring at her
” I’m sorry once again sir” Hammy said
“It’s really ok, but….how is she managing to be a server when she can’t…see?” He said, gesturing at Nikita who’s still standing still on her sp©t
“Oh…well she’s my best server , she might be blind but trust me when I say she’s talented and smart, she knows everything about this cafe and brews the best coffees” Hammy replied and Nikita smiled brightly
Austen beheld the smile and his heart missed another beat…. It’s too adorable and her small cutel-ips made it look more cute
“Boss the time is some minutes to 9 alre-ady” Ray said and Austen sat
” The menu” he said and Nikita quic-kly handed it over
He took it and looked it over before facing her
“I usually take only piccolo latte but two days ago, I made mocha for myself, it was sweet and I think I love it, I should change taste, make me a cu-p of mocha, add two spoons of chocolate powder plea-se” he said
” In a bit sir” she smiled and left to make it,,
Austen sighed, swallowing nothing and looking at his phone, it’s 9 alre-ady but he just wants to taste the coffee maybe it’s just like Hammy said
He looked at Ray and saw him staring
“I just nee-d to take it” he said
“I un-derstand,…but sir Das” Ray replied
” Ion care, he’d sl@p or punch or kick me, I’m used to it, I’ll just prepare myself, I’ve been preparing since Jillian left last night” he replied
” I wish you could see him, seriously he’s so handsome” Sunny said as Nikita brewed Austen’s coffee
“Don’t talk to me, I nee-d to concentrate I don’t want to make mistakes” she replied, adding two spoons of chocolate powder
” Two spoons?” Sunny said
“That’s what he asked for” Nikita replied, mixing it before adding steamed milk and foam on t©p then she sprinkled chocolate powder again and took it to him on a tray
She got there and placed it in front of him
“Enjoy” she said
“Wait” he replied and she stayed, waiting for what he has to say
He took a sip from the coffee and his eyes wi-de-ned, he took another sip
“F*vk, this tastes like paradise” he muttered and looked at her
*You can go” he said
“Thanks sir, we hope for more of your patronage” she smiled before leaving
Austen finished the cu-p of coffee and dropped the cash on the table before leaving with Ray
He got to the door and looked back at her again, he caught a glimpse of her before stepping out
“He dropped hundred dollars” Sunny said, getting the money from the table
” What!, Did he not re-ad the menu well?, Mocha is fifteen dollars” Nikita said and Sunny smiled
” What were you expecting, he’s rich and generous so he just showed his generosity” she said, dropping the money in the wi-de drawer
“Then he must really be kind like people say” Nikita smiled and her phone rang….” Incoming call from Eddy… incoming call from Eddy!”
She got it and tapped it twice
“Eddy why….
“This is Melissa… Melissa Malcolm if you nee-d the full name, your worthless brother is on his way to the station with me right now, you both think you can do that to me and go scot free?, No….” She said and hung up
Nikita’s started shivering with sudden cold immediately
“Kita are you ok?” Sunny asked, holding her quic-kly
“My …my Eddy…. Melissa arrested…. arrested him” she stuttered slowly, her hands shaking ok her phone
” What!” Sunny said
Best Bites pizzas**
BB halted the bike in front of the shop and c@m£ down straight
She plugged in her earpiece, pla-ying one of her best songs FLY by nickiminaj ft Rihanna
I c@m£ to win, to fly
To conquer,to thrive
I c@m£ to win, to survive
To prosper, to fly…
To flyyyyy….to flyyyy
As she sang, she made tomboy moves, dancing crazily while jumping on her sneakers
I wish today it’ll rain all day….
“Brinkley Bright!” Her boss, Mister Rick called from the door but she couldn’t hear, the earpiece is so loud
“Brinkley Bright!” He called again and almost lost his voice , coughing afterwards
” Jeez!, I regret the day I took her in as one of my delivery boys…oh girls, it’s even ha-rd to call her a girl fv¢k!” He complained , going to her
He tapped her and called her name again
“Brinkley Bright”
She st©pped and looked at him before removing her earpiece
” Just because I introduced myself as Brinkley Bright doesn’t mean you have to call me the full fourteen lettered name…call me BB”
“You always talk to me as if we’re age mates… for goodness sake I’m your boss!” Mister Rick shouted
” If you get so-re throat because of me, I won’t offer water” she smiled
” Just shut it….now why did you go home with the delivery bike last night?, The rule is that no delivery boy must go home with the bike” he said
” I was tired and I figured out walking to the bus station to board a bus will be stressful so I took it” she replied, throwing bubble gum in her mouth
” How many times do you want me to repeat myself BB, were you s£nt here to make me lose my voice?, Huh?”
” Are there no deliveries today?, Should I go home?” She replied, ignoring his question
” Gosh….when will you change” Mister Rick said
“Maybe when I die” she replied and he laughed.
” Always the same…you’re delivering pizza to the station first”
” Oh really?, I’ll get to meet my cops friends again, leggo!” She win-ked and entered the shop
” I can’t help but love her that way, she’s the best” Mister Rick smiled, going in with her
Police station**
“You think you can hurt my daughter and go scot free?” Jillian said, pushing Eddy’s che-st
” I’m very sure it was her who tried $h!t, and I know it wasn’t Eddy who threw the stone and even if it was him, then she deserves it” Olive replied in his defense
She actually insisted on following him when the cops c@m£ to arrest Eddy in school
“Miss Melissa Malcolm’s statement here said she was just talking to you as a friend and trying to make peace when you hurt her forehead with a stone” one of the cops said, pointing at Melissa’s plastered forehead
“Have we ever talked as friends?, How could you tell such a blatant lie, you bullied my sis and almost hurt her yet I did nothing but here you are… Saying I threw the stone Melissa, did I steal from you in your past life?, Why can’t you just leave me alone!” He yelled, breathing heavily
” Cops, he’s going to jail straight, my daughter can’t tell lies, when he spends three weeks in jail, his br@ins will come back, no one hurts my Lissa and go scot free” Jillian said
” Sure madam, serious action will be taken” the cop replied
“Seriously?, Why is the law always on the side of the rich?, She has no evidence that he threw the stone!* Olivia shouted
“Then do you have an evidence that I pushed your sis?* Melissa said, sticking out her ton-gue at Eddy
“Shameless bit-ch!” He spat and Jillian c@m£ closer , she sl@pped his cheek and he looked at her defiantly
“Wanna hit me back?, Do that and get it doubled to six weeks in jail without a drop of water in your mouth” Jillian said, smiling evilly
” Eddy!” Nikita said from the door, she c@m£ in with Sunny
“Kita!” Eddy said and she started running to where she heard his voice from, she crashed into a table and fell
“Nikita!* Sunny shouted and ran to help her up
” Take me to Eddy plea-se, take me” she said and Sunny led her to him
She made to hvg him but Jillian pushed her and Sunny quic-kly held her
“He’s going to jail right now, you can’t t©uçh him so bounce off” she said
“plea-se don’t lock up my brother I beg you, don’t do that to me he’s the only one I have” she said pitifully
” I forgot how to take pity since long ago so save your tears blind poor girl” Melissa sneered and Nikita went on her knees
” Sis!” Eddy said, trying to go to her but he was blocked
“plea-se don’t lock him up, lock me up instead” Nikita said
” Kita what are you doing!” Eddy said, struggling to go meet her
“Shut up alre-ady….. plea-se just lock me up instead, let my brother go” she pleaded
Melissa smiled, enjoying the scene
Sunny which she could do something and Olive is thinking the same,,
Eddy made to f0rç£fully break free but someone entered the station which made him st©p
BB c@m£ in ruggedly with her earpiece on but immediately she saw the scene, she re-moved it from her ears and dropped the pizza she c@m£ to deliver on the table
“Holy cigarette….what the hell is happening here” she said, moving closer
” BB you c@m£ to deliver pizza, do it and leave” the cop in charge of the case said
” Dude, how can I just leave when my neighbors are surely getting accused wrongly” she said, looking at Melissa hatefully as she entered the circle
She gave the cops holding Eddy a kick each and they fell, re-leasing him…he went straight to Nikita and helped her up before hvgging her
“St©p right now or you’ll get locked up again” the cop said, standing up to BB
” Jail don’t faze me and you’re aware…so st©p that dude….I have the evidence right here with me and I’m also a witness” she replied, bringing out her phone
” What are you talking about” Melissa said
“When I’m talking, br@ts aren’t allowed to talk, I’ll wound you I swear” BB replied dangerously and Melissa got scared a bit, moving closer to her mum
“What evidence are you talking about” Jillian said and BB pla-yed a video on her phone
She gave it to the cop and the cop sighed as he watched it
It’s a video of how Melissa kicked Nikita’s leg and how she almost fell but Eddy held her
“What’s this miss Melissa?” The cop said , showing her the video
Melissa and Jillian watched it and Melissa held Jillian’s hand
“Mum” she murmured, looking at her
“Let’s leave” Jillian said and drew her hand out of the station
” Bloody motherfv¢kers” BB said and faced the cop
“I think I’ll be coming here soon” she smiled
“You haven’t been reported this month, let this month run out before you come again” the cop replied
” See you soon dude!” She win-ked and led them out
” Thanks a lot BB” Nikita said Immediately they got out
“it’s ok, good thing I recorded the scene” BB replied
“Thanks” Olive said
” Thanks babe” Sunny said
” I hate people calling me that” she replied
“You really don’t look like a girl, you look boyish but you’re pretty” Olive said
” Oh no… Not again, I hate when people say that too” she replied
“But you’re really beautiful” Olive said
” Should I kick you and s£nd you flying to San Francisco?” She replied and Nikita laughed
” I’ve been expecting that” she said
” Baby boy” BB said, locking his n£¢k in her arm
” Hey st©p” he said
” You won’t thank me for saving you?, You’d have been in jail by now and I’m sure you’ll get beaten by tough criminals, you’ll probably lose close to six tooth in the first ten minutes” she said
” Thanks” Eddy said and she win-ked before re-leasing him
” But what were you saying about coming back to the station soon” Nikita said
” Now that I think about it….I wanna go to sunshine high, tommorow is Friday, I’ll just go for the exams tommorow and after I get in, I’ll wait for this Melissa of a girl to trespas-s, once she does, I’ll hit her and make her plead for mercy, what do you think will happen next….jail straight, I can’t wait” she replied and left fast, plugging in her earpiece as she mounted her bike and drove away
Olive looked at Eddy and Eddy smiled
“How can a girl he happy that she’s going to jail” she said
“You see her as a girl?, Not me…I see her as something else” Eddy said
*Thanks for taking me here” Nikita said to Sunny
“I love you” Sunny replied and Nikita hvgged her
“I’m glad you weren’t locked up anyways, I’d have cried a lot” Olive said
” Crybaby” Eddy said and she bit herl-ip
