“Don’t shoot us please have mercy on us!”

“Mercy?”

“Calm down and put your gun away please I’m begging you”

“So now you’re begging me to spare your lives but you betrayed and put me in prison. I’ll end this nonsense!“

“BANG!”

“DADDY !”

I shouted. My body is shaking,both my palms are sweating. I had that moment for a nightmare,again.

As I peep from a small hole I heard a gunshot and saw a man drop dead . I saw a guy standing and holding a gun and had this black aura. I really wanted to fight that day but I ended up crying inside the wardrobe were my parents hid me.I was weak and defeated.

“DINGDONG”

The bell rang and that made me back to my senses. I stood up immediately and rash towards the door. I opened it and saw Veron Ramirez my best friend with yellow flashing color from behind.

“Good morning Primn” Veron greeted me with smile on her lips as she enters.I’m loving her aura for today it’s a flashy yellow seems she have a good news for me.

“Good Morning, so what brought you here in my place?” I asked .

“ Well you know I kinda met this guy weeks ago and we exchanged IG’s and he followed me that night and confessed his feelings days after and I think I already liked him.”

she answered, and look how happy she is.She just met a guy and she’s already inlove. Luckily I’m not like her. Vernon Ramirez we become friends when I was 10 and indeed she’s fanned of cute boys back then until today.Well it’s a good news for her.

“So who’s this unfortunate guy whom you’re inlove with?”

“He’s a varsity player of our football team, Vince Chio Escolar”

“ What ? That playboy? No freaking way.” I answered in disbelief. I checked my watch and it’s 9:00 o’clock in the morning . And I still have work to do.

“Veron, wait for me for a sec let’s continue our conversation later at the caffè.”

she nodded and I immediately went to the bathroom to take a bath.

After 5 minutes I finished washing up and grab a gray hoodie, a fitted tattered jeans and put on my white converse . I comb my hair and applied a natural red tint on my lips.

“Get your cheap but up because I have to be there before 10:00 am”

I work as a part time cashier in Caffè Dahlia . I started living on my own since I was 17. Both my parents died when I was 16 and that tragedy always hunts me in my dreams.

“We’re here I’m so excited for this day.” Veron stated in a cheerful manner.

“What makes this day special for you to be excited Miss Ramirez “ I asked out of curiosity.

“ I’m going to meet my Prince Charming in Caffè Dahlia today and I’m a hundred percentile confident that he’s finally going to ask me out.”

she excitedly replied. Prince Charming my foot that man is a good for nothing casanova. His looks can be considered as a Prince but his personality is worse than a frog had.

“Goodluck for that.”

I smiled and directly head to my post. I put my apron on and my name tag “Primn L. Andrews,Cashier”. An hour passed by and we are being flooded by customers. Caffè Dahlia is just near from our university and most of our customers are students. I suddenly throw my vision at the entrance and I see Vince Chio Escolar walking inside I see a purple aura from him. Purple? All I know is purple aura means arrogance and mystery but in what way? Is he being arrogant because he’s a fame guy? We’ll as expected from a casanova. He immediately went to Veron. And my best friend’s pretty excited and happy right now. But I’m uncomfortable towards Vince’s aura,I don’t trust him.

“One Iced black coffee please” an order form our customer and I actively responded from it.

“One Iced Black coffee for 60 pesos ma’am” I smiled at my customer , I noticed that Veron is waving her hands and I waved back. She’s pointing at her phone so I checked mine.

“Let’s meet at the football stadium later🥰” her text message. Looks like she have something to tell.

“Okay, I’ll be there at 3:00 pm 😇“ I replied.

• • • • • •

“Hello? Where are you I’m already here.” as I speak on a phone call. It’s 3:30 pm and Veron is not here yet. Where the heck is she?

“Hey P!”

I heard someone shouted as I turn around I saw Veron and Vince walking towards me. And their aura caught my attention. The yellow that Veron posses became pink and Vince’ aura remained the same. What? Veron’s already in love,jeez and it’s not really a joke but that purple aura still bothers me.

“Where have you been and what took you so long”

I questioned her as they reached me. And I noticed that she’s being clingy with Vince.

“Will you please stop doing that Veron it’s an eyesore for me.”
