PS- Thanks to trispreation for giving me this idea! Go favorite her and follow her!
Chapter 1
I hated college. Not because of so much time, because of work, and all the other lame reasons, because I missed my best friend, Christina. And now we never contact anymore, so we can't stay in touch. Since we aren't in touch, I may never see her for the rest of my life! I don't know if she got a new phone, moved, or even if she's still in college! Maybe she's super smart and got to skip a year! Who knows? That's my problem.
My thoughts are cut off by the woman beckoning me to the room for my job interview. I get up and walk to the manager's office. He is a man with buzzed hair and a suit on.
"Hi. My name is Rick. What's yours?"
"Tris," I say.
"So Tris, why do you want a job here?" Rick asks.
"Because I love movies. Movies are basically my life. To not work at a movie store, would just be a complete waste of my time. Why? Because I love movies." I say, laughing. Rick doesn't seem interested. He seems like a straight-forward guy. My cheeks grow a little red.
Five minutes later, once we are done talking, I go and sit outside. Than I get a note, another five minutes later. It says I have been rejected. I swear under my breath. Once I get outside, I breathe, "Asshole."
I go into Starbucks to get a drink.
I ask for a pumpkin spice latte. Once I sit down, I stare ahead and almost spit out my drink.
It's Christina! "Chris!" I say. She looks up and is in awe. "Tris!" She says. "Oh my god!" She comes to sit next to me. We talk for a while, and then she asks me if she can drive me to my apartment. "Sure," I say.
…
"So, Christina," I say. "We never really stayed in touch after High School. What happened?"
"Oh, I must have forgotten to give you my number!" She says after a minute of being confused. "I thought I did, but you were holding a grudge against me or something!" See? I'm usually right. I laugh.
We get to my apartment. Before I walk out, Chris says, "Wait, Tris! Tomorrow some of my friends I met at college are coming over. Do you want to come? Also, we can get you hired where I work- and the manager's really nice!" She laughs. "Sure!" I say. "I'll meet you at 10:00 AM tomorrow. Sounds good?" She agrees. "Oh, and before I leave, can I have your address? That would help when I'm driving in the middle of nowhere tomorrow!" We laugh. She gives me her address and we say bye.
I can't wait till tomorrow.
