Chapter 1.
"I wonder where Robs disappeared to. Chelle, where's Rob, I mean Mr Donovan gone? He's not been here for 2 weeks now." Sean quizzes rudely, annoying Michelle.
"I doubt that is any of your business. Now stop gossiping and get back to work!" chelle answers loudly with an annoying squeak. She doesn't know why, but the mere mention of his name makes her angry and upset.
"Else I'll 'av ta dock ya wages" Carla adds with a giggle, appearing from the steps. Looking beautiful as ever she gives Sean a wink and heads to the office.
Michelle gives the workers a glare and follows Carla.
"Yano, we can't keep it from them forever Carla. They're gonna wanna know why Robs not came back. Why not just tell them 'ay?" Michelle says alittle nervous of Carla's reply.
"Tell 'em what? That my own brother tried to rip me off? That he cares so much that he would just take all I've got without any regret or remorse? Or shall I just tell 'em how you knew all about it and didn't tell me? Or would you prefer I left that part out, 'ay Chelle?" Carla answers without thought, in an angry tone. She can't deny she's still angry at Michelle, but she didn't see the point in arguing. Chelle had always been there for her, and she loved her bestfriend but sometimes she got on her last nerve.
There was an awkward silence. Michelle felt upset, but she wasn't going to snab back because she knows she deserved that one, and probably the next few too. Carla felt bad, she knew Michelle was sorry, but she couldn't help feeling hurt. Michelle was suppose to be her bestfriend, and she totally betrayed Carlas trust.
The silence was broke by a knock on the door. It was Julie, she wanted to know if she could still have tomorrow off, Rob had told het she could, but he wasn't in charge now.
"Yes Julie you can, but like Rob agreed, you have to make up the time" Michelle answered, forgetting who was in charge.
"Don't be silly. Yes Julie you may take the day off. And you don't have to make up the work." Carla interrupted Michelle, still sounding angry even tho she was trying not to. "Julie works harder than most of them out there anyway, and everyone deserves a break now and then. That's why I'm off for lunch. A long one" Carla adds.
"I'll join you, I'm sure Julie won't mind being in charge for a while" Michelle says hoping not to be rejected.
"Alone. Sorry Chelle, I just need time to think." Carla says as she grabs her coat and handbag and heads out.
"Thank you Mrs Connor, your too kind" Julie says pleased at Carlas kindness.
With that carla leaves the factory and heads for Peters flat, passing a young girl, who looked familiar but Carla could swear she's never seen her before in her life.
The workers are gossiping as usual.
"Yeh, she said I could have the day off and not have to make up the time. She was so nice." Julie tells the girls, and Sean of Carlas kindness.
"When did Carla become good cop and Chelle bad? Chelles always been the pushover. This isn't like Carla" Sean says quite confused, and thinking about asking Carla for a day off to go see Dylan in London.
"Maybe its Peter, he's got Carla all loved up, my sisters always going on about it. Good on 'em I say. Following theyre hearts." Eva adds, playing with her hair as usual.
"Oh and your love for their relationship has nothing to do with them hurting leanne now, does it not" Sally laughs.
"Of course not. That's just a bonus" Eva says with a giggle.
"Hey, didn't Carla look angry at Michelle, I wonder what she's done" Sean changes the conversation, but its still about his bosses as usual.
Michelle can hear them talking in the background as Kirk explains how he broke a cardboard box as he was fixing it up from being flatpacked. Even the workers see that Carlas angry at her. She feels emotional and she starts to snap at kirk.
"Kirk, its just a stupid cardboard box! I don't care that its broken! Put it in the recycling and get on with packing those flaming knickers into more boxes! "
"Its not just knickers, its bras too" Kirk says, unaware how angry Michelle actually is.
"Oh flaming hell, I don't care what it is, it could be a flamin tiger for all I care! But your paided to pack them so go flaming do so before I.." Michelle didnt have time to finnish, luckily, because it looked like kirk could have cried. She was inturupted by the cocky voice of a girl.
"Am lookin for t'boss. Carla Connor. Its important!" The voice of a teenage snob took chelle by suprise and made her jump. It wasnt a voice she knew.
As she turned around to face the girl, she didn't recognise her either. She was tall, tho tha was probably the 6inch heels she was wearing. She had a green body hugging dress on and long black hair. Who was she? What did zhe want with Carla? Maybe it was her friend from LA. No. Chelle remembers Carla telling her that she was a brunette, and that she was pregnant. Plus this girl looked about 15. That was far to young to be Carlas friend. So, who was she?
