Chapter 3: Secrets and Lies
Anastasia looked at Gene
-Ahhh! He's almost to the front door!- She said grabbing melfinas hand and running behind the front counter. She pushed melfina down on the floor two seconds before Gene and Jim walked through the door-Stay there until he leaves.
Melfina nodded. Jim and Gene sat down at one of the indoor booths. Jim pulled out his mini computer and Gene looked out the window.
-Welcome to Star Burgers Restaurant. I am your purple star waitress Anastasia. How may I take your orders Gentlemen?
-I'll have a soda, medium fry and 2 star burgers- Jim said
- And you sir?- She said looking at gene
Gene was looking out the window with a very saddened look on his face. It was as if his mind was lost in space.
-GENE!- Jim shouted in gene's ear which made gene fall on the table anime style.
-WHAT!..Damn..my ear
-She's been trying to take your order for the past 5 min.
- I'm sorry miss, I don't want anything-Gene said looking at Anastasia. Anastasia nodded and attempted to leave.
-Still worried about Mel?-Jim said
Anastasia stopped and decided to listen pretending to take notes
-It's almost been 5 hours and I haven't heard from her
-She's not a baby ya know Gene-Jim said- She may need her space too.
-I know but ...there's so many fucking assholes out there..I swear if any of them ever lays a hand on her..I..I.- Gene said with a bang on the table with his hand which startled Anastasia-..I..Just need to know if she's ok
-Wow..What a guy-Anastasia thought to her self while walking back to the front counter-He really loves her.
When Anastasia reached behind the counter, she knelled down beside melfina and handed her a cell phone.
-He's really worried about you- Anastasia said- Crawl to the back, call him and let him know your o.k.
Melfina crawled to the back room and dialed some numbers when Jim's mini computer went off. He opened it and pushed the incoming call button.
-Hello- Jim said
-Hello..Jim..-Said melfina
-Melfina ?
-MELFINA!-Gene said snatching the mini computer away from jim. There was no visual on the computer. They could only hear her voice- Where are you Melfina?
Anastasia giggled and jim fell anime style
-I'm all right gene- Melfina said
-That's good, Where are you? I'm on my way
-I'm in...uh...The subway! And its very crowded. It may take me an hour or two to get home.
-I see- Gene said- Melfina I'm at Star burgers, do you want anything?
-No thank you, I had a bite while out, I gotta go now Gene, Bye
-Wait!...mel-
-Yes
-I..I cant wait to see you
Melfina blushed
-Cant wait to see you either, bye- Melfina than ended the call.
Anastasia brought Jim his order and the bill. After Jim paid, they left. Gene was eager to get back home to meet with melfina. After they left, Anastasia opened the door to the back room.
-It's all right, You can come out now.
Melfina came out holding her hands to her chest breathing deeply. She was very nervous because that was her second lie to gene and she didn't like it. An hour later, Anastasia and melfina stepped out side the restaurant. Their shifts were over and they were on there way home. They had changed back into there usual clothing.
-So how are you getting home mel?- Anastasia said wearing a purple tank top with black shorts and black shoes.
Melfina shrugged
-Walking I guess, its how I got here today.
-It's late melfina, walking this late is dangerous. I'll give you a ride
-Thank you- melfina said smiling.
Anastasia gave melfina a ride home on her X25 Sports Motor bike. It was beautiful, black with pink Japanese writings on the side. Melfina held on tight to Anastasia, Anastasia giggled guessing that she had never been on one before.
-You'll get use to it melfina, perhaps sometime I'll teach you to ride.
Anastasia pulled to the side of the Starwind and hawking enterprises complex and stopped.
-I think its safe for you to walk around to the front alone-Anastasia winked- your suppose to be getting home from subway. Remember?
Melfina nodded and smiled
-Thank you- Melfina said- I had a very exciting first day
-Me too- Anastasia said taking off her helmet- We are off tomorrow. But we go back on Thursday. Is it all right if I come over tomorrow to begin your training?
Melfina nodded. Anastasia than put on her helmet and started her bike.
-Good night Anastasia
-Good night Melfina, Take care- Anastasia said driving off.
Melfina walked through the front door and to the kitchen. She noticed the dinner pre-made in the oven was gone and they left the empty bowl. She took the dish out the oven and washed it along with all the other dishes everyone left. After drying them and putting them away, she headed upstairs to her room. Her feet was very tired and sore. She had a shocked look on her face when she opened the door.
- Gene...-She said softly as she watched him asleep on her bed with a picture of her in his hand.
She walked over to her bed and sat next to him taking the picture out of his hand and setting it on the table where it belonged. She smiled at him wiping the hair from his face. She then walked to her closed and pulled out a large blanket. She climbed on the bed laying her head on genes chest and pulling the blanked over them.
-I'm sorry I lied to you Gene- She said in her mind before falling asleep.
11:30 Am ...
Melfina was washing up the remaining dishes from breakfast and had started cooking for lunch.
-Where is gene melfina?-Jim asked- He's not in his room
Melfina blushed. Before she could answer, Gene walked into the kitchen rubbing his eyes.
-Gene!-jim said- I need you to help me load in the rest of yesterdays shipment. Than I found a job for us this after noon.
-Alright Already!-Gene said- Cant a guy get some breakfast?- He said washing his face over the kitchen sink.
-Just meet me in the storage room when your finshed-Jim said walking out of the kitchen.
When Gene was finished drying his face, He pulled melfina close to him kissing her deeply. Melfina was startled but relaxed into the kiss. She smiled and pulled back continuing to cut the carrots
-So wacha buy?- Gene said watching her and eating an apple.
Melfina stopped moving with wide eyes. She had already lied twice, she didn't want to do it again. She looked back at her carrots and continued cutting them.
-I..I uh...didn't get anything. There was something I wanted ...but I didn't have enough.
Gene reached in his pocket and looked down when he saw he only had fifty one cents. Melfina looked at him and smiled.
-I didn't really want it any ways. I just wanted to enjoy the fresh air- she said touching the side of Gene's face with a kiss on the cheek which made him smile. Gene wrapped his arms around her waist narrowing his head until it was touching hers.
-Melfina- He spoke softly-I was really worried about you last night
Melfina looked down.
-I'm sorry gene..It wont happen again. Next time I'll call once every hour, Promise.
Gene than placed both of his hands on the side of her face lifting her head to look in her eyes.
-Mel, I..I..I lo..
Melfina felt her heart start pounding looking in gene's eyes. She loved him and knew that he loved her too. Hearing him say it would be more than anything she could ever wish for. All of a sudden the door bell rang and Jim answered it.
-Melfina! You have a guest!- Jim shouted.
Gene blinked at melfina broke out of there embrace and followed her to the front door. He raised an eyebrow at the woman he saw at the door.
-Hey melfina-Anastasia said standing at the front door way with a gym bag in her hand.
-Hello Anastasia, please come in.
Anastasia walked inside looking around. Gene and jim blinked looking at each other.
-Gene, Jim, This is my new friend Anastasia. We met at the ...the...uh...
-The Mall!-Anastasia said looking at melfina
-That's right! The mall!-Melfina said sweat dropping.
Gene stood staring at Anastasia with a very disturbing look on his face.
-Your the purple star waitress we seen yesterday at Star burgers- Gene said narrowing his eyes.
- We met at the mall before I had to work that shift yesterday- Anastasia said- Sheesh..A bit on the over protective side are we?-Anastasia thought in her head sweat dropping.
Melfina turned off lunch on the stove and grabbed Anastasia's hand running upstairs to her room slamming and locking the door. The girls than started giggling.
-That was close- Anastasia said setting her gym bag on the bed.
Melfina sat on the bed and looked at anastasia pull out two pieces of clothing and some white gym shoes.
- I didn't know if you had any sports clothing so I brought you this- Anastasia said
Melfina nodded taking the items into the bathroom for her to change. When she came out, Anastasia stood there looking at her. Melfina was wearing a red and black sports bra with black shorts and white shoes and socks with red wrist bands on both of her wrists. Anastasia was wearing a green sports bra with black shorts, white shoes and socks. Her hair was in a pony tail with a green band around her head.
-Great! It fits!-Anastasia said looking at melfina-So where are we gonna work out?
Melfina took her upstairs on the roof of the building. Anastasia looked around as they stood out side.
-You don't want Gene to know right?...
-How can you tell?
Anastasia Shrugged and smiled
-A Hunch..Now its time to begin- She said standing in a fighting pose.
Authors Note: It is time for Melfina to learn to fight. Gene have some thoughts about Anastasia being around melfina.
