REINA

Family

Reina! Reina! Reina! I heard my name being called severally.

Annyeong-haseyo I'm Reina.. A shy and introverted black American girl😅 I'm 20, I live in New York, I'm 5.7ft tall.. I love animes(precisely Naruto) I'm neither fat nor slim.. I'm a curvy young lady.

My family would be considered as middle class.

I was raised to be a hard worker myself. I pride myself on hard work and determination.

I have a little brother called Rex.. annoyingly adorable.

My mum Martha.. I can't possibly do a thing with that woman.

My dad.. annoyingly strict but heyy.. that's what dad's do. Although dad passed away, it wasn't easy for my family since mum's a housewife and has health issues.

So I have to provide for my family 🙂

Briar.. My best friend.. she's extremely sweet and adorable.. I'm really thankful for having her even if I'll never tell her.. She has been more than a friend "Saved my sorry *** from bullies in high school" Now we're BFF.

Well.. I've been in pursuit for a job ever since I left college.

Reina!!! My name echoed loudly. . "snapping back to reality" Oh shit.. mom's gonna kill me. I quickly dashed out of my room to be met by a furious looking mom. . she's so cute when she does that(I didn't dare smile of course)

MARTHA: YOUNG WOMAN!!! I called you severally but no answer WHY! "she screamed at the top of her voice"

REINA:I stood there glancing at her looking for a suitable excuse to give her( Obviously not saying I was having a flashback of the perfect family I once had)

"ding" Our door bell rang loudlly. I went to get the door and saw Briar. I let out a sound of relief.

REINA: "whispering" Bitch I'm in trouble.. Help me

BRIAR: You can't do a thing without me.

walking past Reina.. I went to Mrs Martha giving her a big hug.

Hey Ma.. did lousy Reina disturb you again?

REINA: REALLY? "Throwing a deadly stare at her"

BRIAR: I'm sorry Ma.. it's actually my fault

REINA: "A good start" still lowering my face

BRIAR: Reina and I were actually talking on phone for a while.. cause I'm kinda having issues with my family. so scold me too ma "lowering my face remorsefully"

REINA: it's that an excuse? " I'm done for"

MARTHA: "Huffs" it's alright Briar.. I hope you're doing fine.

Go set the table Reina.. don't let this repeat itself.

REINA: "looking a Briar" throwing a I love you forever kiss at her.

Sure mom.. I won't repeat itself.. I love you, you're the best( my mum pretends to be irritated when we compliment or express our love for her) such as dramatic woman. Ever since dad's death she has been a shield for us.. she tries doing menial jobs to provide for us.. I can't love her more. I quickly peck her( pretending not to see her blush). I quickly went to shower, set the table and ate.

And so.. my day starts, off to look for a suitable job...

Thank you guys❤❤

Meeting

REINA: Oh,what a scorching sun,my feet should be crying  for rest

BRIAR: Reina I'm famished,let's stop at a restaurant to eat

REINA: Oh well...I forgot to add,"my best friend adores food to her own very life" Alright briar let's go eat

We found a restaurant  nearby...we ordered a milkshake and pizza

BRIAR: Okay...we have to get a job in a restaurant or something...I can't continue walking  everyday..I sipped my milkshake

REINA: Briar actually has a point we need a job fast..briar and I started gossiping about high school ."we laughed so loud,our laughter could be heard a mile away but we didn't care lol"

IAN,A successful CEO

22 years old

Bright blue eyes

Overly muscular

Strong jaw

Curly dark hair

Attractive,well-proportioned and imposing appearance

A dark bristly moustache

He wears ritzy clothes

An earthly scent swirled around him

IAN: "I had a business appointment with a client...unfortunately my vehicle broke down...i was so pissed off at the driver for not taking the car for service...I grabbed my phone from the car while the driver takes it for services. I  entered a restaurant since I needed a place to rest my legs, and to avoid the press.

I glanced through my phone, reading messages from unknown numbers probably scammers "how annoying". I suddenly heard loud laughter's from the next table

"I guess it's a middle class person, they literally do whatever they want in public not minding people's opinions.

The loud laughter's became worst..I have to meet such people with disgusting behaviors...I got up angrily towards the people disturbing my peace"....

I saw two girls,a blonde haired girl with blond freckles upon skin that was as white as a new page....My anger subsided seeing such beauty with blue eyes as bright as any glacier yet so warm one smile from her could make the old turn young again......her lips, alluring and succulent  I noticed I was an inch away from her "how awkward" I guess I'll have to talk to her

Suddenly I felt a tap on my shoulder.

ohh...damn..I saw a handsome,charming and fit young man with a sea-rover blue eyes,he wore nifty clothes and his spicy aroma was appealing, his Roman nose and half-dome cheekbones  sat above an oaken jaw dressed in a shirt and tie with a clutching black suit..behind him were bouncers

"I guess he's important"He extended his hand for a shake with his alluring blue eyes

"I have a thing for blue eyed guys"

IAN: I know I'm handsome but don't stare much mademoiselle..

REINA: His deep voice made me shiver...OKAY RUDE....This guy thinks he's classy, I'll show him classy

Je M'appelle Reina,I spoke with confidence..I shook his waiting hands

"obviously this guy can't speak French"

IAN: Ohhh ..Tu Parle Français? Well...Je M'appelle Ian,comment Ca va?

REINA: Ohhh God,he speaks French... I'm dead I just have to play along "Ca va bien merci et  vous?

  Briar has been constantly hitting my foot beneath the table secretly begging me to stop my stupidity

IAN: Je vais bien .Je suis tres heureux de parler Français avec vous

" I see she can't speak fluently I'll love to see how this ends

REINA: "Oh shit,I'm finished" I have to come clean .Je parle un peu Français mais Je parle beaucoup anglais

"Aren't I awesome"

IAN: I overheard you girls discussing about how to get a job. I'll love to help if you don't mind

REINA: of course sir,I appreciate a lot "i squealed"

IAN: Very well then,here's my card,come to my office and don't be late

" she looks pretty when she smiles though"

  I quickly walked out since I felt suffocated in there

" I don't usually eat a cheap restaurants..but this girl caught my eyes..I'm not familiar with this feeling it has to stop"

REINA: Merci beaucoup sir,i bowed my head respectfully

" obviously talking to myself since he left a while ago"

  I Finally got home,thinking of Mr Ian all through

"Briar teased me a lot you know"

  I gave mum a kiss,didn't bother eating,I quickly went to shower. I wore my nightwear and laid on my bed..tossing around I kept thinking of Mr ian..He's actually dreamy. I could pay a huge sum to be in his arms LOL. Although he's rude yeah " I rolled my eyes" but he's kinda sweet to me

I better get some sleep unless I'll receive an earful from Mr arrogant tomorrow.

 

    Happy Reading Lovelies

OH MY LORD! I opened my eyes

I quickly rushed out of bed to prepare.. " oh lord i have 15 mins to get there".

I quickly washed myself,took my breakfast" obviously mom won't let me leave on an empty stomach "

I finally arrived at my destination a minute late though " The bureau is sooo huge"

I entered inside..A tall blonde woman asked me few questions "I guess she's the receptionist" she directed us to Mr Ian office

IAN: knock.."i guess they should be the ones"

You can come inside.. "I said nervously which I'm not sure why"

REINA: "On hearing his deep husky voice,I shivered"

REINA: "have you wished to murder someone? Cause i need to now"

I have an objection...why didn't you pick me for the office...and why such absurd condition..i mean to say,why can't I leave without permission and why will you pick my dress..

IAN: Firstly,i just picked you

and if you have an issue with the conditions,you're free to leave

BRIAR: Babe,what's up..you're just gonna forsake this opportunity because of dumb conditions... you got this Reina...it's for mom and

" the bedroom is twice bigger than my living room"

The bedroom is white walled with dark red window frames

It has a dark blue sofa

It has a coffee table between the TV and the sofa

The floor lamp next to the sofa

The curtains are light grey

It has a big flat screened TV

The rug is made of wool

It has a large window at the end " such a nice view"

I showered,wore a short nightdress and quickly went to make dinner

I made pancakes " he complimented me lol"

" I felt his eyes on me all through,my dress was seductive though"

"I washed the dishes and proceeded to bed"

REINA : Goodnight ian

IAN: goodnight baby girl

I gradually drifted off to sleep...
