Pricked By The Needle
We worked for hours we were pricked,pinned and we bled to death. We were just yearning to get out of here,this was the most absurd job to have,I tell my boss we'll come back in a few days or even weeks or NEVER! I know this is the only paying job I have since my mom won't give me pocket money,even if I use that for lunch! I walk to Daniel's house.
"I'm sorry Daniel,but its not going to work out this relationship,I'm sorry."
"Thats fine,Brittany."
"You sure?" I say
"We can work it out in Starbucks."
"No,its fine."
"But before I go."
I kiss the top of his head,I try to head out but he holds my waist and kisses me.
"I thought we are just friends now?"
"No,I love you."
"I'm sorry but I don't feel the same way.We can't live in a forced relationship!"
"I know we can't."
"Then let me go!"
"Fine."
I head out,ouch,now it hurts even more,I was pricked and now Daniel grabbed my wrist,I need to be free and have some fun with my holiday! No boys! No Drama! Even though the legend we have in school has given us a severe case of bad luck during summer holidays. I go to the park and try to collect as many blossoms as possible so I can be lucky. I meet a nice girl named Lucy along the way,she has blue eyes and blonde hair,she agreed to take me to Starbucks,so I can have a drink not pay for it!
"So,cappuccino?"
"Umm...sure."
"Which school do you go to?" I ask
"Lavendar Academy."
"Me too,how come I never see you?"
"I'm at the back of the class all the time,I sit alone at lunch and at recess too."
"Oh,well I'm your friend now."
"Two cappuccinos please."
The waiter serves us and we drink our drinks.
"Have you tried the secret menu?With the pink milkshake?"
"Umm...no I haven't Lucy."
"You should try it,it has swirling of cream."
"Well...I do love cream!"
"Umm...can I ask you something?"
"Sure Brittany."
"Do you know Ameii?"
"Yeah,she has her own fan page with McKenzie,I follow them."
"Umm...yeah! Well recently we've been caught up in drama."
"Havent you heard the legend?"
"I know,bad luck but I don't think that's the problem."
"Well I know what your thinking."
"You do?"
"Blossoms make people lucky,when you found me along the way I had the gift to know what  you are thinking."
"Oh wow."
"I'll take you home in my car."
We hop in a pink car and Lucy starts driving.
"Nice car."
"Thanks."
"So,I've been working in the fashion industry making clothes for models and I was wondering if you would like to join,you would make a fine model,or as how they say it a couture model,whatever that means."
"Of course,that'll help relieve your stress."
"How do you know all this?"
"I've told you."
"Pick a number between one and ten."
"Umm...four."
"You are still thinking the number four."
"How do you know?"
"Its a trick on WikiHow,so you times the number by two and then divide by two to know the number they're thinking of!"
"You are so smart."
It was my stop to come off.
"Thanks for the ride,I'll call you at 5pm."
"Sure,I'll be available."
She drives in her pink Suzuki waving goodbye. I felt so happy that I found a friend to talk to that would actually understand,maybe blossoms are what I should be making a collection of instead of rocks. I open my box of experience,all the good things and bad things in my life so far is in this box and I can't afford to lose this because it makes me who I am.
It's now 5pm I call her and she seems happy to talk but also a little tired.
"Hey."
"Hi"
"I'm so tired."
"You dont have to do the shift tommorow because you would need to apply for it and have a list of qualifications,unless your a friend of mine which you are so I don't need to tell you this at all."
"I might do the shift as soon as possible because the day after tommorow is my boyfriend's birthday,I can't miss it for the world!"
"Bye,I'll call you later!"
"Bye."
