After weeks of searching aimlessly for a job I finally settled for a waitress at my former place of work, the owner who is kinda my best friend, though we haven't been in touch for a while now and wasn't sure he was going to offer me the job if I asked. He was my only hope at this point.
I pushed the door and the annonying christmas song rang, it's eeked me a lot while I was working here. Despite not being December the song played repeatedly each time the door is pushed open, Harry thought it to keep his restaurant alive and festive.
Festive indeed.... That particular Christmas song haunt my dream.
Normally getting a job was useless since I had a lot of money sitting in bank from having Liliana in my womb. I had no use of it now that the only person that I went through that entire process for was gone.
I greeted the lady at the counter who was probably a replacement for me, since I left my job abandoned without telling Harry that I was leaving.
"Is Harry in?" I asked the lady who didn't look customer friendly, she begrudgingly replied with a curt "No". A bit depressed I ordered a coffee, iced Americano to be precise and waited at the customer seat for my order to be ready.
The Christmas song rang again and a lot of ladies wearing a "Vote Prichard for mayor" accessories walked in, taking a much closer look at them I was able to figure out the head leader to be one of my classmates back in highschool, her nickname was.... Cutsie Poopsie, Yes! That was her nickname.
She called herself that because she was not only cute her voice was known to be annonying as she tried so hard to sound like a baby. She was one of the many opportuned to be disliked by me, right next to Diane the slut---- she stole my boyfriend, Sara the follower and Harry--- though I got to know him better and we became extremely close.
I hid my face with the menu card as I tried to avoid Miss Cutsie from seeing me. "Here is your iced Americano" The lady dropped it on my table and left, I still had my face hidden in the menu card that I hadn't notice Cutsie Poopsie was sitting at a table next to mine along with her friends.
"Vote Prichard For Mayor" one of Cutsie friends gave me a t-shirt and a wristband, the menu card fell from my hand when I thought I could hold all of them at the same time.
"Priscilla?" Cutsie said sound a bit unsure if it was me, "Priscilla!" She yelled when she fully believed it was me.
"Hi Cutsie..." I said with a fake smile, her voice hasn't changed one bit, still annonying as always.
"Nah... It's just Constance or Mrs Prichard, you see I got married this year" She said with a bit of pride in her voice like she had accomplished something that I couldn't, she further went to rub it in my face when she asked, "You married? It seems you've put on some weight"
"Not married" I replied while taking a sip from my coffee.
"That reminds me, heard what happened to your mother. I came visiting with a Prichard basket... That's what we call our gift basket that we offer to the poor, my husband has been doing really well, I really hope he wins this election that's why I need your vote." She said and to think she had wanted to offer her condolences.
I gave a nod, "Will definitely vote for him when the time comes" I gave her my word and she smiled.
"Constance! Have you seen the latest news?" One of her campaign members said while giving her iPad to Cutsie so she too could take a look.
"Holy shit!" Cutsie said immediately she laid her eyes on the news on the iPad and the other ladies were a bit taken aback at her vulgar language. "Sorry" she said, "My baby won't like this.... How the hell did this bitch come back to life, this is unacceptable!" She ran on despite apologising for her previous vulgarity.
I still didn't know the news that got Cutsie all fiesty and wasn't in the mood to find out, life is much sweeter when you are not involved.
"Could you please turn on the news" one of Cutsie's ladies requested, The television came on and the name I had been avoiding to hear or listen or to even think of popped out of the reporter's mouth... Damon.
".....It has been a shock to many who had thought that the twenty seven years old wife of business tycoon Damon had returned back to life, not only had she returned but has also fully taken over as the new president of Prince and Damon Limited. Our correspondent was able to get a brief interview with the new president and this is what she had to say....." The camera switched to video of Elizabeth thanking the entire public and a lot other things she was thankful for....
Her interview was draining the life out of Cutsie who so happens to know her as she constantly insults her on the screen, the formerly nice and sweet lady she was was no longer available as the frown on her face lingered.
I wasn't surprised at this since I already knew from the onset Damon's plan, he had said it in a worst way that I will never forgive him for.
When the short interview was over they went back to the news, "Both Damon and Elizabeth has decided to renew their vows so they can go ahead and take care of their baby together, this however has left Damon's fiancee, Alicia, in utter disarray as at this early morning was seen leaving the mansion premises with "Grandma feet" star Jeanette. This news has brought in the question of Damon's infidelity as a picture circulating the whole nation of him and a woman" A picture of me and Damon kissing was posted on the screen.
My feet went cold as Cutsie looked at me in shock, there was no way I could deny that it wasn't me in that picture cause all the features was just there, I was even wearing the gown I had worn.
"Let's not forget that Damon was also in a relationship scandal when ex-lover, Rachel, was found dead at her apartment of which the murderer is yet to be caught. This is Latest Gossip, do tune in tomorrow for more news about this."
"I didn't know you were an other woman" Cutsie said after the news was finally over to mock me.
"Well... We already broke up" There was a painful tone in my voice that almost made me crack.
"That's too bad... Just when I thought I had finally found someone who would put that bitch back in her coffin. I will never forget when she called me low class" Cutsie said bitterly, "She literally came from a family of farmers and there she was at the ball bringing me down by saying the ball gown I had on that day was worth nothing...." Cutsie sobbed.
I didn't see Elizabeth to be that rude, the description Cutsie gave of her was clearly somebody that she was, a person who looks down on another. Elizabeth was the nicest person in that entire mansion only that now I felt a bit of resentment towards her since she had decided to renew her vows with Damon.
This only proved that Damon was going to have everything he wanted come easy. I truly thought Elizabeth really liked Xander, why would she decide.... Remember Priscilla, don't get involved, it will only hurt you.
Even after all of this wait, Harry was nowhere to be seen and Cutsie was right here making a huge scene about how ruined her husband would be if he wasn't made mayor. It would be a huge slap on their face if he returns to Damon's firm after all they had to put up to.
To think of Alicia and how she would be feeling after her confidence of getting married to Damon. And now all this, a woman can only take this much.
When I arrived at my house there was a box filled with my things waiting for me at the doorstep. They were all my belongings that I left at the mansion, such a rude way to return it though.
As I arranged them a book which was wrapped in one of my clothes, fell. I bent to pick it up only to realize it was Elizabeth's diary, I opened it to find that the missing pages were no longer missing, they were all in there, a note was also hidden in there which read, "Not enough proof, read the back" I didn't understand what it meant, so I sat to read carefully.
This should be interesting......
