Chapter 6 - Old Friends, New Knives

Finally finding a cheap and decent hotel to spend the night.

He slept like a log of wood, the day had taken a toll on him; he needed rest, not knowing his hell had just begun.

Two Days Later

During the past two days, Trevour had sat down and brainstormed on what to do. So he settled with using his remaining savings to rent a cheap apartment that was okay to live in even with many problems like the broken tap, washed up paint, yellowed tiles he didn't have a choice it was cheap because of that

With little to no money left he spent the rest on some food and daily necessities

And he was officially broke!

Deciding he couldn't stay like with the hospital debt hovering over his head like a democlean sword.

He divide to put his pride and dignity aside and call in some favours, dignity is useless if you are going to die from hunger you might as well use it to save your ass

He reached out to some old friend, course mates and some faculty friends he schooled with and occasionally studied together, some he has worked with on a project together. So they were pretty close...you might say.

After making some calls most didn't want to have anything to do with him after they heard what went down. Seems like some rumors reached even the school and amongst the graduates

His uncle definitely did a good job but he wasn't going to conceed either. He continued making calls reaching out to other friends and even not so close acquaintances and explaining himself

Still some mocked him, some used the opportunity to talk him down, curse and insult him, saying things like

" No more money Mr Dollar man? Hahaha"

Or

" Damn bro didn't believe a nerdy guy would do such a nasty thing to your parents all for money!, guess looks can be deceiving huh?!"

He talked he begged he tried to explain, but nobody wanted to listen. He wanted to give up at some point them he realized he didn't even have any choice

Laughing depreciatly at himself he continued

Some helped by sending him some money, some just hung up on hearing his voice

Definitely didn't want anything to do with a monster

Others tried to get him connected maybe a job

But this particular girl recommended him to a fastfood shop. Her name was sarah

Her father owned the place and today was his first day working here

He woke up very early, washed up and wore a cleaned and neat outfit he recently got

A sky blue t-shirt coupled with a black trousers although not ironed looked presentable.

After walking for some time trying not to get hot and sweaty under the hot that could cook a pig alive so as not to ruin my outfit

After some time he reached the place, it was a bit high end with a story at the top. Looking up he noticed the words "Golden Bites" written in huge fancy yellow letters hung a bit above the double doors

Through the glass he could see them opening up and some customers having their breakfast

" Hope I am not late" he said taking a deep breath mentally preparing myself to meet the boss and hopefully his new coworkers

And another reason trevour liked this place is that it's not too far from his apartment and a lot further from the city center where his uncle had polluted his name and reputation.

Trevour pov

Opening the doors, the sweet aroma of freshly done coffee mixed with other various delicacies hit my nose

Gulp!

" They smell so good, he has to have a secret recipe" I said

In my whole timeline I have never perceived such delicious aroma. I was mentally drooling at this point but snapped back to reality

" Trevour focus! You need this job you can't miss this. Anything else later"

Going up the counter meeting a pretty bombshell she looked a bit fancy to be working in an eatery

Her blonde curly hair, her glowing nails you could tell were freshly done, red lipstick that would cause you to subconsciously lean for a kiss, her work uniform could hide her killer body and those peached shaped ass

Her perfume hit me with the lavender smell casting an enchanting spell over me. She exuded a nonchalant and goddess energy and was casually scrolling

" Trevour not now! Not now! Get a grip! She is way out of your league focus!.

Hmm

I coughed drawing her attention her sexy brow scrunching up probably from being interrupted.

Steeling my resolve

" Er...hm...good morning am Trevour Mr pottice said I could resume work today and report to Gazelle. Sorry to interrupt " I added

She looked at me for a few seconds before standing upright her mouth forming a playful smile tilting her head her blonde hair falling to the side.

" Oh so you are the new guy, am Gazelle" she said extending a hand for a shake to me

Quickly wiping my sweating palms on my pants, I shook her hand they felt soft and boneless but I quickly let go not to look like a creep

She eyed me again nodding " not bad" she said. " Go throught that door you will meet a guy his name is Jeffrey, tell him you are the new guy he will put you through" she directed me into a path by my left

" Sure thank you" I said moving my legs t

"Trevour!" I heard Gazelles soft sexy voice

Turning to answer "yes?"

She leaned on the counter her hair scattered , her slender arm pushed at each other causing her bunnies to spill over the neckline " take care" she said her fingers in her mouth

My brain short current blood rushing to my dick, I quickly threw back a thanks and fled

She is dangerous!

Fleeing to the corner I spotted the door taking a deep breath. I was about to meet my co worker the moment of truth

Opening the kitchen came in sight about five to six people scruing about some cleaning some cooking

" Are you the new guy" a voice came from the back turning around a guy in work uniform came in view

" Yeah, well. Gazelle said I should come here.....I meet Jeffery"

" Chuckle, i am Jeffery nice to meet you " said his am outstretched obvious from a shake

Taking it" nice to meet, am Trevour "

"Trevour nice name,so look Trevour" his voice changing from the friendly to the stern solemn " there are two rules just two" stretching out two fingers " and this are

" One, do not mess with Gazelle. Do not ogle at her, if she scolds you just keep mute and act dumb she will get tired and leave you after a while. and secondly, try not to mess up especially when Mr pottice is around Gazelle can use that to her advantage

"One you abide by those two you are free to go"

I was stumped for word, Jeffery was implying the sweet sexy lady at the counter was a literally snake and bitch. " How could he say that to such a beautiful women"

My impression dropped immediately for Jeffery but I didn't show it on my face

He introduced me to the remaining staff

The tall and buff David the Gastly cut on his face horrifying. The sweet and friendly Anna her brow eyes on pair with Gazelle foxlike eyes

The nerdy Beckham, the athletic Devon and the quiet Joshua.

All had their unique personalities which was interesting.

I was given a locker and work uniforms and I official started by job!
