Bad Boys Girl

Jennie Wilson POV

" Jennie Jennie "

"Table 4 needs their order taken! Table 7 has coffees ready." Lisa shouted.

"Coming.." I shouted back.

Lisa was my bestie. Her mother owned a small coffee shop. Lisa's mother always had been second mother to me. For almost a year I'd been working in the coffee shop as a part-time job.

Lisa helped me in between. I was saving money for the college fees in which I will be going. The Hunsberg University.

I always dreamed of going there. I heard it was one of the top University in the world. My family can't afford it's fees easily.

My family's financial condition was very poor. I am not complaining.... but I and Mom were so dependant on my father. We looked upon him and solely relied on him financially.

He was a labourer in a steel factory. He daily worked hard so that I could have a good future. I hated to give burden to him.

His wages were not sufficient to lead a luxurious life. But we were a happy family no matter what our condition was. We always thanked God without complaining about our life.

I loved my father so much. He was a good man without vices, God-fearing, jolly person, a very loving husband and caring father. I loved my family so much.

My mother had heart disease. She needed surgery. We fought for her life. We lost our savings and cottage, just to keep up medicine expenses and the surgery of course.

By God grace she survived. She had mild pain, still after the surgery. She was advised by her physician not to do strenuous activities. We never let her to work outside. So I had to do part-time job to cope up with my family expenses.

Lisa's mother paid me well, no so well but it was sufficient to meet my daily expenses and some savings for my college fees.

Lisa and I went to the same school. We finished high school together. We turned 18 this year. This means we are ready to go to college. Yayyy!

We gave college entrance exam together hoping that we get selected together through scholarship.

I kind of admit.. I was a bit of a nerd. Well I can't help it, I had to study hard to enter that college through scholarship. It was very tough, many like many competed to enter the famous Hunsberg University.

If I graduated from that University, my family condition will get better and I can treat my family better by getting a decent job. That was the main reason I wanted to join that University.

I was picking up some plates and the tips the customer left. Suddenly Lisa blocked me. She looked gorgeous in her gown.

"Wait why are you in a gown!?" I raised my eyebrows.

"Uh...sorry I didn't tell you, well it's your fault. You were so busy here, you completely ignored me" she pouted.

" Fine say now"

" Mom and I are going to a ball, my mother's brother has invited us so..."

" So....?"

" So we will be leaving early..sorry sorry you have so much work to do" she said in one breath closing her eyes shut.

" Oh come on, I got it baby girl. Go enjoy the party." I grinned.

"Are you su-"

"Yes Lisa, GO. We have the day off tomorrow"

"Okay just be careful while walking home" she hugged me tightly.

" Bye Jennie, be careful" I heard her yell from outside already.

I watched her go in her car. I grabbed the dishes and walked towards the sink. I started cleaning the dishes. It was 11pm. Suddenly I heard the small bell above the door tingling, signalling more customers.

The cafe became pin drop silent.

What stopped hustle and bustle in the cafe?

Wait! Are customers coming or going?

I turned suddenly, I gasped. A man in front of me. He wasn't that old, he looked like a college boy.

He was staring at me. I felt like he was undressing me with his eyes. As I stepped back he took a step forward.

My heart was hammering in my chest.

"May... I..help you with something sir?" I shuttered. I was hell nervous.

I panicked when I felt his large hands on my empty arms, yanking me closer to his body.

"How could you do this to me Eva" He asked in a dangerous tone.

I shivered by his voice. It's so rough and husky. My brain stopped working.
