Chapter Two
John awoke early the next morning with a very vague memory of the night before. He focused his vision and spotted a young woman getting dressed. The memory of what he did slowly came back to him. He just hoped she didn't ask him to tell her what her name was. John didn't have a clue.
"Don't worry. I'm just leaving." She said.
"Aight." John groaned. His throat ached. What had he done last night?
After the woman had left John rubbed the sleep from his eyes and headed towards the bathroom. A long, hot shower was just what he needed to start his day.
When Julie awoke she sighed and groaned loudly. Another day of slaving away for rude customers and a lousy wage. Unfortunately, that lousy wage paid her bills. Just. She hated her job but she would be screwed without it. Her "lousy wage" was the only things that kept her going. It barely covered the bills which left Julie with a lot of overdues.
She rolled out of bed and headed towards to the bathroom. She had planned on having a bath before she went to work but once again her boiler had let her down. She was surprised anything worked.
"Damn this house." Julie grumbled.
John had a flight to catch and if he didn't hurry up he would end up missing it. Jumping into his car he sped off to the airport to catch his flight home. He had so many plans for when he got back. One of them being to go out with his cousin, Marc. Marc had an obsession with finding girls to have one night stand's with. A habit John had now picked up.
Julie groaned. She had just missed her bus. That was the second time that week. Now she had two choices. She could either wait nearly an hour for the next bus or she could walk the long distance to the restaurant. Julie was tempted not to go in at all. She knew it was a bad idea. The bills wouldn't pay themselves.
"Julie, you're late again." Her boss commented when she finally arrived.
"I know. I'm really sorry. I missed the bus." Julie told him.
"That's becoming quite a habit. I don't want to have to fire you."
"No!" Julie pleaded. "Please, I really need this job."
"Get to work. I'll see you in my office later." He said.
"Yes, sir."
"One day I won't have to rely on this lousy job. I won't be in debt and I'll have a nice house. Not one with chipped paint on the door and window frames and over-grown grass…if only."
