Rebecca's POVWorking at the hotel was not easy, but there were other people who worked there, and we got along really well. Especially Bridget, we got along the first day I started working. She had texted me in the morning saying she would not make it since she was sick. I had to cover for her. That is why I had so many customers today and the boss never hired many waiters since the place was not that big to accommodate many workers. I had to take orders, serve food and bill it. There was no time to rest until the shift was over. I did not even have time to check on Carlos today. We only had a chat in the morning and that was not enough for me. I wanted to talk to him every single time.“Hey, I did not order this food, you waitress. Why are you bringing me the wrong order?” One customer yelled at me after serving him his food. “Sorry Sir, Sorry” I apologized, but he continued harassing me. “I will make you get dismissed from this place, you are not concentrating on your work, you s
Rebecca's POVMike was something else. He was hilarious. I had always thought he was strict because of his academics, but I was wrong. In fact, he was the one who cooked us supper tonight. It was better to be with him than being alone, since Nica was not here today. “Rebecca, here is your food.” He told me as he served me my meal. Oh, what a gentleman. I thought for myself. We ate as we were laughing our hearts out. It was charming being with him. I did not know how time flew until it was already midnight. All this time Carlos had not even texted me goodnight. Was he alright, or something had happened to him? This was so unlike him. “Babe, are you alright.” I decided to text him first. I could not call because of Mike, even though nothing was going on between us. “I am ok, Just studying Hun. Sorry, I have not texted today.” He replies almost immediately. And my heart sighs a sign of relief and I smile when I read his text message. “Don’t worry babe, I understand. I will call you
Rebecca's POV“Ooh, my head is spinning.” I heard Nica in the morning. She had slept the entire night, and I knew she had a hangover. I decided to make her coffee, so it could help with her headache. “Here, drink this, Nica.” I say to her as I hand her the coffee. She gladly accepts it and drinks it whole. “Thank you, Rebecca. You are such a nice friend.” She says. Thank God today is on a Saturday and there are no classes. I was so tired today. I guess it is because I have not had enough night sleep. Likewise, I can't help but worry about Mike. I knew he was not ok the other night and I could not do anything to help him. We were just friends and there was no way I would have misbehaved myself with him. “Where were you yesterday, you came here really drunk Nica and you know it is not good.” I finally decided to ask her. She had never behaved the way she did the previous night. “I was out with my friends, don’t worry, I am ok, you see.” She says as she stands up to go to the washro
Rebecca's POVNica has decided to take me out. I don't know for what, but I know she has good plans for me and, moreover, it's boring in here so there will be no problem if I go out to pass some time. “Yes, Nica, you can take me wherever you want.” I told her. The truth is, I only have a few nice clothes to wear. I have never bought a single dress since I came to the university, while Nica has several of them. But I will wear my clothes just like that. I don't care if I will look like an odd one out in front of Nica.“Well, girlfriend, I have to rush to my place to take a shower and choose some impressive outfit to wear. I want us to look fantastic today.” She says, then she leaves. So, I am left to prepare myself. I go to my closet and start looking for something impressive and short, maybe to make me look somehow attractive like Nica. “Yes, this one.” I say to myself as I see my blue dress.I remember Carlos had bought it for me last year during our anniversary. He had prepared a sur
Rebecca’s POVThe club was parked to the brim. We could hardly find our way through the gate. I noticed that it was a must to pay at the gate to go inside. Nica paid for our tickets, and we were allowed inside into the VIP area. There were few people there because the tickets cost a lot of money. “It looks like people love this musician a lot, Nica.” I shouted because of the loud music which was playing. “Yeah, I love him too, that is why I am here.” Nica told me.“He hasn’t arrived yet. He will be coming later.” She adds. I look around and there are countless people. Some are kissing each other, some are laughing and others are dancing with their partners. I wish Carlos were here, so we could have a good time together. Ooh, how I miss him.“What will you drink Rebecca, I want to make an order” She tells me. I really don’t know what to say. I don't even know the names of the drinks. All I can remember is Del Monte juice. “Del Monte Nica, for mango.” I say.“Ok, I will not say anything
Rebecca's POVI wake up in a strange room and bed. The bed looked more comfortable than mine at my house. Where is this place, and why can't I remember getting here? My head feels like it has carried several kilograms of stones. I get up, and immediately I want to throw up. I didn't know where the washroom was, and I could not control myself anymore, so I took the bedsheets and I put my dirt there. It smelled so awful.“What is happening to me?” I asked myself as I took the sheets and hid them under the bed. I know I will be in real trouble if the owner of this place sees them. I started searching for my phone and I could not find it. I don't remember where I last placed it. “Ooh my God, what will I do now?” I say loudly. I got out of the room and I remembered this place. It’s the club we came to yesterday with Nica. I don't know where she is, and I don't have my phone with me. I could have texted her already. I saw the bar attendant cleaning the mess people made last night. All the p
Rebecca’s POV“Since the club incident, I have not set my eyes on Nica. I know she feels terrible for leaving me and maybe even afraid to face me. I intend to save some little money, so I could buy a new phone. Furthermore, I have not communicated with Carlos for a third day now, and he might be worried.I get ready for today’s class. The first person to see was Mike. These past few days we have become really close, and I liked how we were. He was busy studying. I think he did not notice me entering the class. “Hello Mike.” I greeted him as I proceeded to my seat. “Hello Rebecca, how are you doing today?”“I am well. Thank you for taking good care of me yesterday. I truly enjoyed your company.” I confessed. He was really great anyway. He cooked for me, coffee and my lunch. I was not in the position of doing that for myself. And because of his good care, today I woke up as if nothing had happened to me.All these days I haven't studied at all. It's like I had forgotten what brought me
Mike's POVI have to confess my true feelings for Rebecca today. We have been friends for too long now, and I know her well. She is a good girl and I can see she will light up my world. She will make me the happiest man, and I would really take good care of her. I can't continue pretending that what I feel for her is purely friendship. I can no longer keep my feelings to myself.Furthermore, I gathered all my strength and when I saw her leaving class, I decided to follow her. I was used to walking her to the school gate, and today she was odd. She just left without telling me. “Today it's like you are rushing, have you forgotten about me?” I ask her jokingly. I tell her that I will be coming over to her house later at night. I wait until it's already 8 pm, then I decide to go. I knocked and she invited me in. I saw her wearing her pajamas and she looked perfect and beautiful. She is a simple girl and I love the way she behaves herself. She is also hardworking, kind and beautiful. What
