Forbidden Love Dirty Affair With My Stepbrothers

CLARA'S POV

I stood before my boss, my heart beating in my chest. I had broken a valuable item at the convenience store, and I knew that my boss was damn furious.

"Clara, how could you be so careless?" My boss asked, his voice stern and unforgiving. "This was a very expensive item, and now it's broken. What am I going to do?"

"I'm so sorry, sir," I apologized, feeling the hot shame rising in her cheeks. "I didn't mean to break it. It was an accident."

"An accident?!" My boss shouted, his face turning red with anger. 

I stood there, frozen in terror as my boss yelled at me. I felt the blood rushing to my face, and I knew that I must look like a tomato. I tried to speak, but my voice was shaky and weak.

"I didn't mean to, I really didn't," my voice barely above a whisper. "I'm so sorry, I'll do whatever it takes to fix it."

"It's unfixable, how do you expect yourself to fix it? This is the reason why I don't employ minor's, I can't even do anything about this because you are not even meant to work here." My boss sighed.

My boss seemed to take a deep breath, as if he was trying to calm himself down. "I need to think about this," he added, his voice still harsh. "You're lucky that this could be taken out of your monthly payment, because you would have paid for it before leaving here today."

In the midst of the chaos, a customer entered the store. I was so focused on my boss's anger that I barely noticed the person who had walked in. But as I turned to see who it was, I saw a kind-looking guy standing there.

"Hey, is everything okay?" the guy asked, concerned in his voice. "It seems like there's a bit of a commotion here."

My boss turned to the man, still clearly upset. "There's been a bit of an accident, and we're trying to figure out what to do."

"How about I pay for the broken item?" The customer pulled out his wallet and paid for the broken item, then he purchased a few other things. I watched as he paid for his items, and then he turned to leave.

"Thank you so much," I appreciated, my voice still weak but full of gratitude. "I really appreciate what you did."

The man turned and smiled at me. "You're welcome. It's no problem at all."

With that, he walked out of the store, leaving me feeling both relieved and a little bit amazed.
