Anna's POV
My phone jarred me out of my sound sleep, I grumbled as I cover my ears with my fluffy pillow but it kept ringing
I gave the bed covers an irritated jerk and I checked the caller, I let out a sigh while I stretched and settle into my pillow
It was Roxanne,Eric kid sister
I just rolled my eyes wondering why she is calling me and how she even have my number in the first place. For a young girl like her she is awfully mean to everyone.
I sighs and answers it.
"About time you answered! I have been calling you, I tried your sister number but the stupid lame ass phone went straight to voicemail!" She yelled making me winced
"Oh I think her phone died. What do you want?, and why are you calling me early in the morning " I asked ungraciously
"Early in the morning?? this is 9:43am" She yelled
I shot up peering at the red numbers on the digital clock and I ran my hand through my head
"Ohh"
"I don't have time but I just want you to know that if anything happen to my brother then I will kill you " She yelled but I didn't say anything
Eric is my best buddy and I do like him a lot because he always keeps me company whenever I am down, even though after I drop out from school, he never fail to always stick next to me
"He is going to Los Angeles very soon " Roxanne yelled
"Why is he going there?
"Just know that if anything happen to him, I will kill you cos he is going to there for plastic surgery " She said and I hang up
" Eric?? Plastic surgery?? " I thought...Yes, I know Eric do feel insecure about his looks because so many students do bully him calling him names that he is ugly but is it true that he is going to Los Angeles for plastic surgery or is Roxanne trying to play some kind of prank
I got up and went out to meet my mom, I was really hungry. Just then I bumped into Mimi my sister .Mimi is three years younger than me and she can't speak, she has been mute from birth, even though many people do make fun of her, she did not care, I wonder how hard it must have been for her
She glared at me and walk away
"Hey, I am your elder sister, you shouldn't be glaring at me like that" I shouted, suddenly my mom approach me and grabbed my right earlobe and led me quickly into the store
"Haha, mom it hurt " I yelled and she released me
"Why did you wake up late?? Why are you not going to work?? My mom asked but I just kept mute while rubbing my ear
"Ohh, don't tell me they've fired you" My mom asked
"Mom, the manager was so cruel and mean to me, he makes me work for two hours non stop, so.. So.. So.. I quit" I said with a pout looking down at my feet
"Anna,this is going to be 13th job. You lazy asshole, can't you just be like your sister for once, she always help me in the restaurant but as for you, all you do is to press phone and eat " My mom yelled
"Mom, stop comparing me to Mimi.. " I yelled back
"Oh my goodness!! You're really useless to me, you can't cook, you can't work, due to your laziness, you dropped out of school, who is going to marry you?? Who?? You just get yourself a dumb rich guy, useless brat " My mom hissed and walk away
"Mom I am hungry " I yelled but she didn't answer
All what she said doesn't matter or mean anything to me, the only thing that caught my attention was "get yourself a dumb rich guy". I am a beautiful girl so who wouldn't like a girl like a me
