DOS
My name is Dos as in “two” or “second”. With all my life I was never been first. I'm always second or most likely last. Never been a priority. In short, I'm just a reservation by other people.
Until I met my little sister named Isabella. This cute little girl with her cute long black hair. Aside from that is her fluffy cheeks and adorable blue eyes.
Me and Isabella aren't really siblings. I was adopted by my step father which by the way a well known businessman. I was adopted because my mother and my step father fell in love but didn't last that long. My mother died because of an accident which made me left out.
My step family aren't close except for Isabella. The only one who treat me like we're blood related. Others are just closed minded, thinking only nothing but money. So I decided to cut my ties with them except Isabella.
I rented for an apartment and started working at the bakery. I do love baking because it gives me peace. Aside from that, I do write stories and surprisingly my work went viral. I didn't use my real name though. So my famous work is just made by an anonymous person.
"Dos?" A female voice said beside me.
Her name is Yasmine. My partner here in the bakery. Yasmine is a pretty lady with her brown hair and so does her skin. Aside from that is her attitude, she's really a good friend and a working buddy. Yasmine is a year older than me but it feels like she's younger because of how childish she is sometimes.
“Yes Yas? What is it? " I asked while rubbing my hand through my apron.
"Can I have a favor?" Yasmine asked while pinching the few excess of my clothes from my right arm.
“Hmm? Sure. What is it? " While continuing to clean my hands.
“Well unfortunately we're almost out of flour. The delivery that we ordered is having a delay so if it is okay with you. Can you buy some flour from the other stores? Please? ” Yasmine explained while doing a puppy eyes.
She really do remind me of my sister. If they both want something they just give me this look and I just can't resist. Both of them are close to my heart so I can't argue.
“It's fine. Just handle the customers for me ”I said while removing my apron which by the way I can't because it was too tight.
“Let me untie it for you” Yasmine suggested.
I let her untie my apron and I'm ready to go. Yasmine gave me money then I started walking. The store is not that far so I could just walk my way there. We're not on a rush too so I don't need to walk faster too.
The moment I arrived the store, I heard a loud scream. A woman's voice near me. I was about to turn around when I saw a man with exactly the same clothes that I wear today, running. I have no idea why that guy is running. All I know is that someone behind me jumped to grab me. A woman wrapped both of her arms around my neck and started to yell “where's my wallet you thief!”
It's a huge misunderstanding which I wanted to clear up but she's too strong to explain.
"It wasn't me!" I yelled but she won't listen.
The police officer arrived and arrest me. They even hit my hand because they really thought that I stole that woman's wallet.
I hate my clothes.
The moment we arrived inside the police station, things keeps on going. It became repetitive. I keep explaining that it wasn't me but she keeps on accusing me.
Until I realized there is a CCTV.
Yes! I'm saved! Thank you brain for giving me such wonderful ideas.
“How about this. Let's check the CCTV footage before accusing me as a criminal. How about that? " Said I then crossed my legs in front of them. I know I already won.
The woman smirked even though she's obviously upset. What is with this woman? I mean I get that she's kind a pretty but she does not use her brain much.
Not a moment later the police officer pointed the screen and I can see how the woman react. She looks so embarrassed and disappointed in the same time.
“I'm so sorry” She apologized while trying to hide her face.
“Aish” The last thing I said before going back to my work.
I lost a lot of time. I just want to buy some flour! That's it. How the hell did I come to this situation?
I was about to fully left the police station when I saw the woman's face. She looks so tired and done. I do feel bad about her but I have my own problem too. I feel sorry for her.
Wait? It's already night time? I took us that long to solve this simple problem? Sigh. Anyway I should-
I was about to go back to work when I saw the man awhile ago. The real man who stole that woman's wallet. I can see the man holding a pink wallet with a lot of fancy stickers on it. I slowly walked near him without him noticing then I pointed something behind him. I pretended that I'm holding a handgun.
"That's the woman's wallet you stole earlier right?" Said I while using a deep voice.
He looks weak though that is why I have the courage to this. I can feel him shaking too. I really don't know what to feel. Should I be scared? Or I should just laugh?
"Ye-Yes!" He yelled.
“Give that wallet to me or else-” I used a short paused “or else this will be your last night buddy” said I while pressing my fingers more behind him.
“Su-sure. Take it! Just take it! ” He yelled.
The man immediately gave it to me. The moment I received it, I took a glimpse inside the wallet and saw her picture. Confirm, it's her.
“Now run and don't look back” I ordered which he actually did.
The time I was left alone, I was about to check more information so that I could return it to her. I did tried going back to the station but she already left. Then suddenly my phone vibrated, someone is calling me.
It's Yasmine. I forgot about the flour! I answer the phone call.
“Hey. I'm really sorry about the flour something happe- ”I was about to explain the situation but she cut me out.
“Tell me your excuses later. I need you here right now because you need to deliver something for tonight ”said Yasmine.
“Okay okay. Sorry again ”
“It's fine. I know you have your reasons ”then both of us hang up.
The moment I got there, Yasmine gave me the address and information about the delivery. She handed me the bread and I started to prepare.
"I'll explain to you later when I get back okay?" I shouted before leaving.
“Sure” Yasmine said then gave me a smile.
It took me awhile before arriving the location. I texted the customer and she did replied very fast too. While I'm waiting for my customer I decided to check the information again. I open the wallet and surprisingly I saw an address and a picture with another woman.
Wait. It's the same address? I'm already here? Her location is here? What a day. I was about to closed the wallet when someone tap my shoulder. As I turn around I saw a beautiful woman.
She's pretty tall and gorgeous. We're about the same height. Her red eyes are intimidating but her smile shows differently.
“Uhm. You must be the delivery guy right? " She asked with her soft voice.
“Ah- Yes. Here's your bread ”I nodded.
She hold the paper bag that I handed to her. Our fingers kinda touched which made my heart go faster.
But why is she looks so familiar? Oh right! She's the another woman from the picture. Geez.
“By the way. Can I ask you something? " Said I.
“Uhm. Sure? " She answered while brushing her hair through her right ear which made her look more beautiful.
“Are you by chance friend with this woman? Do you know her? ” I asked while showing the wallet with picture.
“Oh- It's Misa! She lost her wallet? " She giggles while covering her mouth.
“I guess. If it okay with you, can you hand it to her? " I asked.
“Oh sure. No problem. We're bestfriends after all ”once again she smiled.
After giving the wallet she gave me the payment. Before I left we had an eye contact so I thanked her.
I know I might be dumb to give the wallet to other people but I'm really sure that she is the another woman from the picture. Aside from that she even mention “Misa” before I could show her the ID so I know she's the one.
My guts never failed me.
What a day.
