Blark... Blark..! Blark....!!!,
Charlotte's alarm blared to life, " Another day had begun, and she wasn't ready. But the alarm's incessant ringing wouldn't let her linger in bed any longer. Time to rise and shine!"
Charlotte eyes fluttered open, with a groan. She slapped the snooze button, but the persistent beeping refused to cease.
With a grumble, she tossed off her cozy blankets and sat up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. The clock on her nightstand read 6:00 AM in bright red numbers.
She yawned, stretching her arms overhead, and swung her legs over the side of the bed.
Her foot knocked against something solid. She turned to see what it was, and her eyes widened in surprise.
A teenager, about her age, was sleeping soundly beside her, his chest rising and falling with each gentle breath.
Charlotte mind raced as she tried to process why they were sharing her bed. She didn't remember going to bed with anyone,
The boy's dark hair was messy, and his lips were slightly parted, revealing a hint of straight white teeth.
Charlotte's face grew hot immediately she noticed that he was cuddling her favourite pillow, she quickly scrambled out of bed,
"'Andrew!' She yelled, clenching her fist in frustration, With a malicious grin, Charlotte grabbed a pillow and whacked Andrew with it, trying to rouse him from his slumber.
"'Wake up, sleepyhead!' she yelled into his ear"'
Andrew woke up with a yelp at the echo of her voice making him roll out of the bed,
"Ooouuuuch..!!, it hurts". Andrew whined as he rubbed his ankle.
Charlotte immediately poised for defence with the pillow seeing that Andrew is awake .
Andrew's eyes fluttered open in panic, and he quickly scanned his surroundings before landing his gaze on Charlotte.
Andrew did you sleep with me ? Charlotte asked her eyes blazing with rage.
A confused expression crossed Andrew's face..on hearing the question, it was followed by a sheepish grin.
'Hey, Em... what's up?' he mumbled, rubbing his eyes
Yes or No...?, frustration straining in Charlotte's voice.
Buttercups...it actually hurts, I nearly had a panic attack.... Andrew whined in his usual melodramatic manner.
Charlotte's eyes narrowed at the nickname
"Buttercup" she pounced on Andrew. Andrew getting a hint of what was about to happen grabbed his own pillow and they engaged in a fierce pillow fight. Feathers filled the air as they screamed at each other.
Mrs Grace, "Charlotte's mother" hearing the commotion in Charlotte's room walked in and saw them fighting.
Immediately Charlotte sighted her mother with the edge of her eyes, she skilfully dropped her pillow and rolled away into the bathroom,
Andrew ran after her hitting the pillow aimlessly at her but she jammed the door shut to his face, with a scornful expression on her face as she did that .
"Bye bye Andrew" she blew him a kiss.
Loser..... loser...loser, Andrew cussed her thinking that she accepted defeat because he put up a good defense against her
What on earth happened here ?, Mrs Grace asked in surprise looking at Andrew and the teathers covering the whole room,
Andrew's jaw fell slack open, Mrs Grace's voice sent jolts of electricity down his system, Now he understood why Charlotte accepted defeat by rolling inside the bathroom.
'"That sly queen has evaded cleaning again" he gritted in frustration with a clenched fist,
"Morning Aunt'... Andrew greeted Mrs Grace trying to sound innocent.
"Get here Cleaned Up....you have twenty minutes".
..Mrs Grace ordered in a firm voice and left.
"Buttercupppppppppo!!!!" ,Andrew yelled in anger sending the crows away,
Charlotte grinned from ear to ear in the bathroom as she understood the frustration in the name,
Andrew reluctantly began cleaning up the mess, already planning his next move in their never-ending game of pranks and fun."
"Hey, Andrew, what's your plan for the day? Got any big plans?"'.... Charlotte whispered mid breakfast
Andrew snarled at her pretending not to hear her because Charlotte's mother was sitting with them in the round dinning table.
Charlotte pestered further...hissing and making signs at Andrew...and when Andrew lifted his gaze at her.
Andrew, what's your schedule like today? Got any free time?".
...she asked in a hush tone.
A smirk appeared on Andrew's lips "Practice your table manners, Buttercup. That's my advice for the day."
Mrs Grace looked at Charlotte when Andrew mentioned table manner, "Charlotte maintain some decency around the dinning table".
...she pointed out and
excused herself because she was already done with her breakfast.
Charlotte rolled her eyes at Andrew for exerting revenge on her for their pillow fight,
"Andrew that stunt you pulled off now ain't funny, Seriously though, are you busy?"... she asked with interest.
Andrew replied her teasingly..... "Oh, you want to know my schedule? Well, let me check my planner"... (He pretends to check an invisible planner) Ah yes, it says here I have a busy day of "IGNORING YOU QUESTIONS AND PERFECTING MY PILLOW-FIGHTING SKILLS.".... Andrew packed his plates and excused himself from the dinning table, Charlotte immediately followed him behind.
"Andrew, come on! Stop joking around I'm sorry, just tell me if you're going to check your exam results today?"
"Yeah, I'm heading to the school to see if I got into Springdale High. Wish me luck!"... Andrew replied with a hint of nervousness as he picked up his jacket.
"Bye Aunt Grace, am off"
..., Andrew told Mrs Grace
touching her feet in respect.
"Mama I will also head out, am already running late"..
Charlotte added kissing her mother's knuckles.
Mrs Grace patted the two children with smiles wishing them luck.
"Good luck, Andrew! I'm sure you'll get in. I've got a busy day at work, trying to meet my sales targets. Wish me luck too!".
.. Charlotte told him encouragely .
Andrew turned to look at her, "Luck? You don't need luck, Buttercup. You're a sales superstar!" He said with a smirk. "But hey, if you need any help with your sales pitch, I'm always here to lend a hand... or a pillow to practice your fighting skills."
That's my My Lucky Charm... speaking, thanks
Andrew.... will treat us to some ice-cream if things go well.
Buttercup...you better no go back on your words, you should promise.
"I said I will ", Charlotte muttered with a scoff,
"Were you cheated your whole life that you don't trust people".
"Hey, Andrew, can you do me a favor? Can you also check my exam results at my center? I kinda have a tight schedule ".. Charlotte pleaded.
"Sure thing, Buttercup! I'll make sure to check both our results. If we both pass, we'll celebrate with the ice cream you promised!"
"Deal! Thanks, Andrew. You're a lifesaver. I owe you one."
"No problem, Buttercup". Good luck to both of us! He heads to the bus stop.
"See you later, Buttercup!"
Charlotte waved at him with smiles "See you later, Andrew!"
. She stood and watched as his bus leaves, then she headed in the opposite direction towards the mall.
She just wanted to be sure that no one bullied Andrew while he was getting on the bus.
As Charlotte walks into the mall, she takes a deep breath, ready to tackle the day ahead
"Charlotte Ryder...Time to put on your salesperson smile and crush those targets!", she motivated herself .
Charlotte approaches the sales floor, where she sees Ethan Landon, a wealthy, good-looking teenager, lounging on a couch, looking entitled
Charlotte approached him with a smile, "Hi Mister, I'm your sales guide today. Welcome to our store!"
Ethan rolled his eyes at her and muttered, "Another annoying salesperson trying to make small talk."
Charlotte was taken aback by his repulsive demeanor,
"Uh, okay... well, let's get started then! What are you looking for today?"
"Show me something worth my time.".. Ethan muttered .
Charlotte tried to remain professional "I understand, Sir. Our designer section has some high-end Louis Vuitton pieces that might interest you...
Ethan stared at her disdainfully, "Louis Vuitton", You don't get it, do you? I'm not some clueless kid who settles for anything. I want the best, and I won't tolerate anyone who can't deliver.
I want something more edgy and customized ...the customer emphasized.
Charlotte was getting somewhat uncomfortable.
"I'm not sure we have anything like that..."
Ethan sneered at her,"Of course you don't. You're just a sales drone who doesn't know the first thing about fashion. Get me something worth my time, or get out."
Charlotte feels really uncomfortable and tries to find a way to escape the situation.
"Okay, well, let me know if you need any help finding anything... " She replied professionally stepping out of the way.
Ethan suddenly turned confrontational
"You know, you're really annoying. Can I just talk to your manager instead?"
Charlotte replied calmly, "Of course, Sir. I'll go get them for you."
She walks away, feeling frustrated and angry
"oohhhh" "F**k ..me.. Harder!!! " "Ah.oh..mmm" A b**ch was laying on all fours getting f**ked aggressively from the back.
