Chapter 1

Emma

The dark gloomy night and moonlight spread acres of the convenient store. The store is a little away from the residential area making it a remote place with few houses down the road. I particularly like this place due to its quietness and low people passing by the store. Nevertheless, the store pays me as any other convenient store would, so it's a win-win situation. My social anxiety at the back of the throat prohibits me from any interaction I would have had with people since I got away from high school. That doesn't mean I don't talk to people at all but more of a fact that u don't have anyone I can call my friend.

Sitting on my knees and bending towards the shelf to look for expired items have been one of the things I've been doing for a long time, and since it's the end of the month I'm looking for things to replace. My ass is prominent beneath the store dress sticking right out due to the position I'm in, anyone would be able to have a good view if they tried. Sticking out my hand to the back on the shelf to take out the last item, I get up followed by a low hoarse voice which makes me flinch." There was no one at the counter " he says with his light brown eyes frowning directly through me. He has a pack of cigarettes in his hands. He's loaded with brand clothes, his torso covered with a luxurious black shirt with matching jeans covering his beautiful physique. Silky cinnamon brown strands cover his forehead which compliments his light olive skin." Miss would be obliged if you can help me checkout these "he hands over the pack of cigarettes. I quickly go to the counter escaping his intimating presence. While I give him his cigarettes I can feel his eyes all over me. But then he leaves without a word.

Few days do by I work and sleep and the cycle repeats. I spare myself a few times a month to go and have few drinks at some nice club making myself deeply hungover forgetting to care for the world. I normally sit at some corner avoiding gazes and the loud music is like a barrier which prevents casual talk with anyone. I wear a beige off shoulder dress showing just the right amount of cleavage with golden chain. The dress covers half of my thighs and the beige colour brings out my blind hair and makes my blue eyes pop more then they could, I'm wearing white heels with silver jewels covering it , making a a lil uncomfortable. I walk few miles from my home and since it's a holiday I don't have to worry about work, I reach the club and the loud music was evident from the outside of the club. Entering the club I see loads of people, some making out , most of them dancing and few of them drinking. I find a corner for myself and sit there.
