Bumping Into The Gangleader (1)

Emily's pov

I wince at the pain my ribs are giving me limping to the bathroom to access the damage he has given me .I look in the mirror is is horrified at what I see. I am not bright and bubbly happy girl which I used to be but now I am broken abused girl. I slowly climb in the shower being careful not to hurt my ribs . and turn the warm water on immediately regrating it due to the pain it caused to my ribs. I quickly put the shampoo to my brown long hair and shop over my body. walking to the cabinet I start covering my bruises . I quickly start walking to the door not making a sound or I will get punished by my father and slut like step mother. and start walking to Rose's cafe my only escape from my absolutely perfect life . I get in to see Rose my mother's best friend and hug her . she hugs me back but I wince in pain when she touche it but covered it with excitement because I can't risk getting them hurt . "hi Rose what you want me to became the cook or the waitress today " I ask her . "waitress please my dear "she replies and walks in the kitchen.

I grab my notebook and walk to table where there is a young couple and a baby girl."hey I'm Emily and I'm your waitress today do you know what u want to order "I ask them low trying to prevent myself from strutting. "can we have two chocolate milkshake and pancakes with honey and a lemonade " the girl says with a friendly smile. of course "do you want anything honey" I ask the small girl . no she replies I walk away and give the order to rose.

my feet were aching , it had been hours I had not properly rested but Rose told me to rest but I declined because my father has eyes everywhere and if he found out that I was not doing my work he would beat me to death, I can't take it . I was in my thoughts when the door opened causing me to jump . I looked at the time . I was late I ignored the customers lack of conservation and gasps I tried to run out of the door as fast as I could . I was successful, until i bumped into some one . I flinched as I could feel my ribs throbbing and gasps of the customer but I was too scared . scared of what he was going to do with me this time . "sorry " I said and ran out of the door without sparing any glance at anyone.
