Arianna and Michelle walked to the food court thinking about Aaron having to refold the 'I look slimmer' sweaters. They wished he could join them for lunch.
"I feel bad for Aaron". Michelle said.
"Me too I mean come on there just bloody sweaters". Arianna said.
"Maybe Chrissie has OCD or something". Michelle said.
"Nah I think she's just a". Before Arianna could finish that too close for words sentence Michelle's phone went off. It played I want it that way by The Backstreet Boys.
"Hello"? Michelle answered.
"Hey Michelle". Hayley answered.
"Hi Hayley". Michelle said.
"How's The Khaki Barn"? Hayley asked.
"We're actually on our lunch break when do you get off"? Michelle asked.
"In 10 minutes". Hayley said.
"Wanna call everyone and meet for lunch"? Michelle asked.
"Sure I'll call Sam right now". Hayley said dialing Sam's number on her phone.
Meanwhile at Claire's Sam was putting up necklaces and jewelry on racks.
Her train of thought came to a stop when her phone when off. Sam stopped what she was doing and answered her phone.
"Hey Hayley what's up girl"? Sam answered.
"Hey Sam wanna meet up for lunch"? Hayley asked.
"Sure I just need to finish up. How's your day so far"? Sam asked.
"Pretty good Michelle's on the other line by the way". Hayley said.
"Hi Sam". Michelle chirped.
"Hayley whoever that is can you hurry up"? Hayley's manager asked.
"Oh sure thing Marcus". Hayley said to her manager.
"I gotta go I'll see you guys later". Hayley said hanging up her phone.
"Okay bye girl see you soon". Sam said clicking off her phone.
"So is everyone gonna meet for lunch"? Arianna asked as Michelle clicked off her phone.
"That seems like the plan. I just hope Ron-Rent-a-Cop won't watch us eating like prisoners". Michelle said.
"What does he know about teenagers he's just a stupid old ninny". Arianna said.
Michelle looked confused. "What's a ninny"? She asked having no clue what that meant. "It means idiot in British slag". Arianna said. "Oh I thought it meant an old fart who knows nothing about other people". Michelle said.
Arianna chuckled at Michelle's own definition. Later everyone showed up in front of the lemon with food of their choice.
Sam, Hayley and Logan got burgers and fries from Burger McFlipsters, Michelle got a grilled chicken and cheese quesadilla, Arianna got Korean barbecue and as for Mika she didn't know what to get so she got some food from El Sporto's which was a grilled chicken sandwich with a side of fries.
As everyone ate they discussed what was going on at their jobs and how it's going there.
"Where's Aaron"? Hayley asked putting a fry in her mouth.
"He had to stay and refold the sweaters". Michelle said.
"Why what's wrong with them did someone spill a can of stupid sauce"? Mika joked taking a bite of her sandwich.
"*Chuckles* No Chrissie just thinks Aaron's folding is imperfect". Arianna said air quoting imperfect.
"What's so special about a bunch of sweaters"? Logan asked stuffing his face with a cheeseburger.
"There the 'I look slimmer' sweaters and apparently there the hottest thing The Khaki Barn has to offer". Michelle said.
"Chrissie sounds like she has Obsessive Compulsive Disorder". Mika said.
"No she's just very dedicated to her job". Sam said taking a sip of her soda.
"Sounds like an addiction". Mika said.
"Your right it does". Arianna laughed.
"My sister use to be a workaholic but luckily she learned to take a break and relax. I mean can you imagine working day and night not having any sick days or breaks to hang and chills with your best friends"? Hayley asked.
Everyone thought about what it be like to work day after day with no breaks or a chance to breath.
"Nah". They all said.
"I need to be available for the ladies so they can know where to find me if they need any help with their lips". Logan grinned.
Sam gently slapped him on the hand.
"Ow what? I'm just being honest" Logan grinned.
"LEE! Breaks over report back to The Penalty Box stat"! Coach Halder said through a walkie talkie. Mika picked it up from her hip and responded back saying. "Sure thing Coach I'll be there as soon as I can". Mika said.
"I probably should go I wouldn't wanna keep him waiting". Mika said.
As Mika left so did the others but before heading back to The Khaki Barn Arianna and Michelle stopped by Wonder Taco to pick up Aaron's lunch.
Meanwhile at The Khaki Barn Aaron was finally done refolding the 'I look slimmer sweaters'. "There I'm done ya happy now". Aaron said annoyed.
"I'll be the judge of that". Chrissie said looking over Aaron's refolding.
"Can I please take my break now"? Aaron asked.
"Alright fine but don't think you're getting off easy kid". Chrissie said.
"Whatever". Aaron said rolling his sky blue eyes. Once Aaron went on his break Michelle and Arianna showed just in time with his food.
"Hey Aaron we have food for you". Michelle chirped.
"Wonder Taco just like you asked". Arianna said giving him the bag and his drink.
"Thanks guys". Aaron smiled in relief.
"Anytime". Michelle smiled delightfully.
"Man Chrissie is nuts". Aaron said taking a bite of his taco.
"Did she make you do anything else besides refolding the sweaters"? Arianna asked.
"No but she watched me like I was a fugitive. What's her problem anyway"? Aaron asked.
"She probably feels threatened". Arianna said.
"Threatened how? We didn't do anything wrong". Michelle said.
"Well Michelle remembered when you said your older sister use to work here"? Arianna asked.
"Yeah why"? Michelle asked.
"I'm just spit balling here but maybe my theory could be that Chrissie sees some of your sister in you and in her mind something triggered a memory of your sister doing something wrong and somehow it reflected back to you somehow. So maybe that's why she's strict toward us". Arianna said.
"Come to think of it when I applied in the summer she asked if I was related to Nikki Wong by any chance and I said yes. She looked exhausted for some weird reason". Michelle said.
"That's just plain stupid". Aaron said finishing his taco and taking a sip of his soda.
"Yeah I know she threats me like her. Like I'm a mini Nikki clone". Michelle said.
"Don't let her drag you down". Aaron said putting his hand on her shoulder.
"Yeah don't let her negativity get in the way of your positive attitude. You can fight it". Arianna smiled.
Michelle smiled they were right. Who was Chrissie to bring her down? Just because Michelle was related to Nikki doesn't mean she's like her. Chrissie had no right to treat Michelle or her friends like that.
"Thanks I needed that boost of confidence". Michelle smiled.
"Anytime ducky". Arianna smiled. This happy moment was cut short when Chrissie butted in.
"Aaron"! Chrissie snapped.
"Yes"? Aaron asked.
"Lunch breaks over back to work". She said.
"Okay then". Aaron said going to throw out his trash.
"I wonder how Mika's doing Coach Halder can be a real pain in the neck". Michelle said.
Meanwhile at The Penalty Box Mika was literally a human target! There was paint all over the place and there was all these bases built up to protect yourself from the attacks.
It was a paint ball coarse that Coach Halder put up to practice his paint ball training to become a pro. Mika was covered head to toe in paint.
She was hiding behind a large black wall to shield herself from the craziness that was Coach Halder.
"Okay if I just hide out here until it's time to go home I'm safe". Mika whispered.
Mika hid there for 4 hours it was amazing Coach Halder didn't find her yet he must've given up and gone home. Mika decided that it was safe to come out of hiding.
"Yes no crazy Coach Halder. Man I really need a shower". Mika said looking at her paint covered clothes. Just as she was leaving a huge green paint ball ambushed her in the back and knocked her down.
Coach Halder jumped out from behind the cash register with his paintball gun and paintball armor. He had a victory grin on his face.
"Think I'd forgotten? Coach Halder never forgets. I've got two eyes in the back of my head Lee and I don't mess around maybe you should think of that tomorrow. Have a good night". He said.
Mika got up and said. "Good to know sir good night". Mika said.
Once Mika met up with everyone they wondered what happened to her. She looked like an Easter egg or a rainbow threw up on her.
"What happened to you girl"? Aaron asked.
"You look like a tie dye shirt". Arianna said.
"Coach Halder set up the Penalty Box to make it look like a paint ball coarse, long story short I was a human target". Mika said.
"Oh that can't be good". Michelle said.
"You have no idea". Mika said.
"That's nothing my manager treats me Arianna and Michelle like criminals". Aaron said.
"How so"? Mika asked.
"It's like every little thing we do it's considered terrible". Aaron said.
"I'm sure that's not true". Sam said.
"Believe me it is". Arianna said.
"The good news that tomorrow is Friday we only have one more day of work and after that we can relax and chill". Logan said cheering them up.
"That's true hey I got an idea to celebrate all our hard work how about we go out for pizza"? Hayley suggested.
"That sounds great". Sam smiled.
"I could totally go for some pizza". Aaron agreed.
Everyone agreed tomorrow after they all get off from work they'd get some tasty pizza for dinner. Tomorrow will be better its Friday after all it'll be okay. It's all gonna be worth it.
End of this chapter I'm really sorry for the late update but here it is and I'll try and update more.
