Alyssa POV
Well, school went normally today besides me drooling over a certain blonde teacher.
I was now making my way to the café knowing that I didn't have to pick Brandon from school as he went home with his best friend.
I work at the café from 3:00 pm to 8:00 pm.
I love working there as its always calm and quiet, though we have a lot of customers coming in and out.
As I reach the café, I go into the back room, put on my apron and move over to the counter working as a cashier.
I keep getting orders and I continue serving them. Around 5:45 pm, in walks the infamous Isabelle Willow. She comes in with a beautiful brunette at her arm.
As they make their way to the counter, I shake my head to rid myself off inappropriate thoughts.
"Good evening, Ms. Willow! What would you like today?", I ask.
"Oh call me Isabelle outside of school, Alyssa. Anyway, I'd like a caramel latte. Addy, what will you have?" She says, directing the last part towards the brunette.
"Huh? Whatever you're taking Belle." The Addy person replies.
Ms. Willow pays for both their drinks and they take a seat while I prepare them.
Once done, I make my way towards them.
"Enjoy your drinks miss." I say.
"Thank you Alyssa. Oh! By the way, this is my best friend Addison." She says.
"A pleasure meeting you Addison."
"You too"
As I was about to turn back, I felt a soft and warm hand on my arm. I looked down and noticed it was Isabelle stopping me.
A deep blush started to rise from my neck to my cheeks as she said, "See you tomorrow, honey!"
I couldn't form any words, so I simply nodded and made my way back to the counter.
-----------------------
That night, after I got the groceries, made dinner and finished my school work, I headed to my bed.
I couldn't stop feeling the same tingles I felt when Isabelle touched my arm. I kept reminiscing the same moment in my head which caused me to miss on my much needed sleep.
I was so engrossed in my thoughts, that when I checked the time in my night clock, it was 1:50 am. I slowly made my way to the kitchen to grab some water and was startled when I saw my mum sitting on a stool at the island.
I ran up to her and hugged her tight as I barely saw her these days. We were both so busy with our schedules that we barely had time to see each other.
She would come home after our bed time and leave for work before we woke up.
While hugging me she asked, "Hey baby, how are you? And why are you up so late?"
"I'm good mom! I've missed you! And I couldn't sleep so I came down for some water." I replied.
"Ok baby, I'm gonna go and sleep because I have to be up early. I love you, sweet pea!"
She said.
"Ok mom, I love you too!"
