Opening my eyes again, I found myself back at the moment when the customer threw milk tea at me.
Chapter 1
During my summer job, a bizarre customer threw hot milk tea at me and even broke the store's equipment. The milk tea shop sided with the customer and took my entire salary to cover the damages. When I went to argue, I was hit by a large truck on the way.
When I opened my eyes again, I was back at the moment when the customer threw the milk tea at me. The hot milk tea splashed on my face, making me shiver from the burn. I opened my eyes to see the woman, not satisfied with just throwing the milk tea, reaching over the counter to hit me. Instinctively, I stepped back a few paces to avoid her.
Seeing the woman's crazed expression, I was momentarily stunned before realizing that I had been given a second chance.
On this day in my previous life, the shop was unusually busy. After the woman placed her order, she started urging me to hurry up within two minutes. Even though I had already warned her that there would be a longer wait today, she didn't care and hurled a string of profanities at me.
"It's clearly because you're clumsy! What's with the excuses? If someone else were doing it, it would have been done by now!"
"People like you are just a burden on society! Your parents must have been really unlucky to have you!"
Verbal abuse wasn't enough for her; she frequently interfered with my work. I couldn't take it anymore and told her she could cancel her order if she couldn't wait. The woman lost her temper, accusing me of disrespecting her. She not only threw hot milk tea at me but also tried to overturn the machine to hit me.
After getting injured, I called the police. But when my parents arrived, they were embarrassed by me and forbade me from pursuing the matter. When I got home, they beat me up. My wounds became infected, and I developed a high fever that night.
The next day, the milk tea shop called to inform me that I had been fired, and my part-time wages were used to compensate the customer and cover the store's damages. When my parents saw that I didn't bring home any money, they kicked me out.
"That was supposed to be money for your sister's new computer! You useless thing, you can't even handle a small task!"
"If you don't get your wages back today, don't bother coming home!"
Under the hot sun, I went to the shop to ask for my money, but I couldn't hold on and fainted in the middle of the road. In the end, I was fatally injured by a speeding truck.
Fortunately, I was given another chance at life.
The woman, seeing that she hadn't hit me, angrily pushed the sealing machine on the counter towards me. I didn't dodge. Just like in my previous life, I let the machine's edge cut my arm, leaving a long gash. Then, I quickly hid in a corner and called the police.
The woman was not afraid at all and even more arrogant.
"Do you think calling the police will help? I'm telling you! You were the one who delayed my work time first!"
"You owe me triple compensation for the wages I lost today!"
The police arrived in less than ten minutes and took us both to the police car. On the way, the woman kept complaining to the police.
"She disrespected me! She deliberately wasted my time and then refused to serve me!"
"Isn't that just treating me like a fool? I was so angry that I had to punish her."
The woman spoke with such outrage that if the police hadn't stopped her, she would have tried to hit me again. I just stood quietly in the corner, explaining what had happened, looking scared and timid.
In my previous life, during the argument, she kept provoking me. I got so angry that I argued with her all the way, making the police think we were both at fault. When my parents came and forcibly intervened, they took me away, and the matter was dropped.
This time, I wouldn't be so foolish. She owed me, and I wouldn't let her get away with it.
