AN: Hey it's me again. I've noticed a lot of my usual readers (fans- may I call you that?) here; thanks for the continuous support! You guys are the best. ~(owo)/ Sincerely, IB.
It was absolutely the worst. The worst start to a new job in the world history. Elsa could most confidently shout that to the heavens and know from the bottom of her heart that she was speaking the truth.
That detestable boy she met from the night before was her student. Jack Overland, aka. Jack "Frost" (a nickname that most staff and students used to refer him- probably due to his cold demeanour) was a thief, a pervert, and possibly the worst student she had ever met. After the fact he stole money from her and peeped on her in the washroom, he dared to skip school for the rest of the day.
What kind of student does that anyways?!
The more she thought of him, the angrier she felt. He was a minor who worked at a bar. She was too shocked to mention that last night, but then again, she never imagined she would meet him the next day and discover that he would be her student. However, now that she was his teacher, she would no longer tolerate such behaviour. She would personally discipline him!
Elsa shook her head as people by the streets started watching her frown grow deeper and deeper across her forehead. If that boy, Jack, was the root of her frustrations, she no longer wanted him to occupy her mind. She had to go meet a landlord this evening. Since she moved to a different province, she did not sufficient amount of money to purchase her own flat, but she could still rent a room- preferably one that was a bit close to her worksite.
She found a perfect place on site and had already contacted the lady who posted the room online. She was only demanding for four hundred and fifty dollars per month and that was a price that she could afford. The description said that a bedroom was available and there would be a kitchen, a bathroom, a patio, and a laundry room too.
What more could a woman need?
Feeling better by the thought of being able to move out of her best friend's house, Elsa was more than ready to sign the contract. She also had a valid letter from her previous land owner as well. If she didn't grab onto the chance, it was no doubt that another person would bid the place. So she found herself at XXX-XXXX Road. She called the landowner and when she came downstairs to pick her up, Elsa was mildly surprised to meet a fairly young lady. A very pretty lady with platinum blond hair, perhaps early to mid twenties.
The lady politely smiled and said, "Hi, it's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Emma."
Elsa smiled back and greeted, "I'm Elsa. Thank you for meeting me tonight."
The two stepped inside the condominium and Elsa observed Emma click a fob against the black box inside the elevator as the ascended to the 19th floor. Then the landowner guided her to room XXXX. She unlocked it and the abode was very humble. Though it was a spacious flat, there was only a small rectangular table by the balcony window with a small pot of flower on it. There was a couch in the middle of the room and two small bookshelves against the wall. Everything looked normal until she noticed a keyboard, a drum set, and a black guitar in the corner of the room.
The landowner must of noticed how Elsa was staring at the instruments because she cleared her throat and said, "Yes, there is another individual living here... and he happens to away at work right now."
Elsa felt a pang of worry and repeated, "A man?"
Emma smiled to assure her and said, "He's my younger brother and he's rarely home because he is juggling three jobs currently. He doesn't cause any trouble."
She replied a soft "Oh."
Emma continued, "I can understand why you may be worried as a woman. But you see, my brother should be more focused on his education, but he is always out scrapping money by to live alone here. I live on campus at my university, but there isn't enough room to have him with me. He's very hardworking and diligent. I wish I could ease his workload a bit... that's all."
Elsa looked sadly at the young woman. She looked truly worried about her brother and if she was this polite, it was safe to assume that the brother would be just as gentle.
Right?
Then Emma explained more about the contract and Elsa weighed all her options in her mind. Elsa had stayed with her friend for nearly two months and she often felt she was staying beyond the original welcome. Of course, her friend would deny it, but she felt back and she did have a job with a solid income. There was no excuse for her to keep staying with her friend. Hotels were far too pricey and motels were far too shady for a single, mid-twenty years old woman to stay alone. Perhaps this would be the best option for her.
It would be a lovely place to live in. It wasn't messy nor dirty. So she nodded her head with a smile. Then they sat by the table as Elsa signed the year contract. Once the deed was done, Emma looked elated, knowing that she had helped her younger brother.
Then on cue, the entrance door clicked open and they could hear a voice complaining, "Sis, are you home?"
Elsa's heart stopped beating. I know that voice.
Emma replied, "Yup! And I got the best news for you! You have a new tenant now! Congrats bro, you are officially a landlord now."
The voice murmured, "Right... I remember you telling me that on the phone earlier. And I could really use some good news right now because I have a psycho woman as my new teacher."
Then the figure finally entered the living room and there stood Jack wearing a black dress-shirt with a dark purple vest and his hair gelled back. As their eyes met, they both had a pure look of disgust and shock.
They shouted at each other, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!"
Heh. I don't know why, but I am amused right now. Hope you are too, please leave a review! :)
