[25] I Find Out A Cheapskate's Wallet Hideout
“Excuse me, Sir,” Big Mama was already narrowing her eyes at Markus. He wasn’t really wearing a suit that shouted I’m Rich! so of course, Big Mama wouldn’t want him anywhere near her girls. Especially me, I often made the best tips here. “Would you be paying for her time?”
I peek through Big Mama’s side to smirk at Markus. “Don’t bother, Big Mama. He won’t pay for anything.”
It wasn’t surprising that he glared at me.
Ha! Take that, you cheapskate.
Big Mama huffed, raising her nose pointedly up the air. The thing she hates more than losing money are customers who don’t want to pay money. At the start of Ardere, she didn&rsqu

The keys jingle in my pocket and I was careful not to make that much of a sound.Everyone in the apartment complex is probably asleep by now. They wouldn’t like it if I suddenly started making a racket. I’ve already exchanged my heels for simple baby pink trainers so that my feet wouldn’t click-clack through the floor.Then I see a small bag had been hanged on my doorknob.I love you so much, Helen!It was a good thing too since I didn’t have enough time to eat dinner. After Markus had pulled me away from Big Mama, he had been annoying and even though I told him I wouldn’t give it to him unless he agreed on paying me, I eventually gave in.
The Disreputable Love Transaction [27] All I Wanted Was Bread Pudding, Damn
I grumble something under my breath as I wait in line.The sky was dark, filled with stars, and the moon was shining brightly. It’s too freaking bad that I can’t even fully enjoy that because the line at The Dollar Pantry was long because an old woman was fighting with the cashier, Daniel, over an expired coupon. Frowning, I start tapping my foot on the ground, careful not to hit the basket that was filled to the brim with bread pudding.From a distance, I could tell that Daniel was already gritting his teeth. Something I learned from Ardere was watching mouths. Since the music had always been booming there during shifts, I forced myself to learn how to read mouths so that I could easily know who’s a potential customer or not. It’s a talent that I actually loved aside from being ridiculously good at math. A
The Disreputable Love Transaction [28] My Quest In Finding Something Useful In A 'Mommy And Me' Magazine
“Useless,”I place the paper on my left.“Useless.”I place it on the left again.“Hmm…maybe if I…no. Useless.”Sighing, I scratch my cheek and look down. I was sitting on my living room rug, all around me were different colored paper cut into small rectangles. Daniel had given me a very thick magazine and I had been so excited because usually, those magazines that were filled with coupons were expensive. And he gave it to me for free. And here I was thinking that we were starting a new chapter in our friendship.It was Daniel, so I had obviously guessed wrong.
The Disreputable Love Transaction [29] Sometimes I Feel Like A Wizard, Minus The Powers
“Look at this, Mexi!” I press the small cut-up coupon on the side of Mexi’s aquarium. She barely lifted her head. She was still hiding inside the trunk of a small tree that I got for her. Usually, she was curious whenever I came close. Since she probably wasn’t hungry, she didn’t care about me. Mexi was like the usual pet, she only loves me when I offer her food. “I’m going to buy it and it’s going to look like you!”Markus's reply had annoyed me so much that instead of replying back instantly, I had decided to scan more pages of the magazine Daniel had given me. After a dozen more coupons on milk powder and diapers, I encountered a cute coupon that will actually be useful for me.It wasn’t even that good of a sale but might as well get it.
The Disreputable Love Transaction [30] If You Think Shopping Is Easy Then You've Got It All Wrong
I look at my screen again, memorizing the aisles and products that were on it.It was a Wednesday, which meant it was shopping day. Since it was just a few days after payday, everything was on sale. And I meant everything. From food to clothes to furniture. It had already been a week since Markus and I had a deal and from the way that notifications keep popping on my phone, it would be an understatement to say that he wasn’t at all abusing the service.Regardless of the time, it could be in the middle of the night, it could be just the start of dawn, the bastard didn’t care. He would send me pictures and would expect me to answer them within 30 minutes. Technically, it was alright, however, what annoyed me was there was an instance where I didn’t see the text he had seen immediately.
The Disreputable Love Transaction [31] On Ramen And Chocolates...And Bacon
“Move it,” I hiss as I push another elderly woman out of my way. “Stop blocking the aisle, lady.”The old woman flushed but otherwise got out of my way. Well, before she sent me a harsh glare and kept muttering under her breath about how ‘young people don’t know how to respect anymore’ as well as how ‘she was so much better when she had been my age.’ Of course, like how I usually did when I was being scolded, I let it inside one ear and out the other.The number of old people, both women and men alike that I have shoved, pushed, as well as glared at had already gone past the number of fingers I had. As much as I wanted to be understanding and nice that their old legs could only probably walk at a certain speed, my kindness can only take so much. Especially when I only had thirt
The Disreputable Love Transaction [32] The Weird Food Combo Made Me Sick
“Freaking stupid bastard,” I grumble under my breath as I type in the answers to his stupid accounting problems. The smell of bacon drowning in its own grease and fat had my mouth-watering, but it still hasn’t finished cooking. “Just you wait until I finish my degree, I am so going to apply to your stupid company.”And then you’d have no choice but to pay me a large sum.“There,” I finish typing. “And send.”Markus had realized that I really wasn’t going to answer any of his texts when I had been at the mall. To be honest, I hadn’t planned on contacting him at all today. Except for my plan for my shopping trip had ultimately failed because I did spend some money on the bags of bacon that I had purc
The Disreputable Love Transaction [33] Can't Believe I'm Eating My Words Right Now
“What’s so funny?”Helen glared at the young woman who was busy chewing on gum. The young woman looked at her from head to toe, a sly smirk on her lips. She grabbed the box again and swiped it, the amount to be paid for flashing on the small screen just in front of her. “Nothing, Ma’am.”“No,” Helen snapped, her eyes narrowing. “You were laughing, so I want to know what’s funny.”I pull on her sleeve, “Helen.” Helen glanced at me, sending a glare my way too. With a sigh, I raise my hands up in defense and back away. I keep forgetting this was Helen I’m talking about. She might be the sweetest person I know but she’s no pushove
