Struggle - H.S.

I removed my hand from my face and processed what just had happened. Why was he so sweet towards me? I mean I don't mind but he is part of Harry's group so it's just weird.
I returned to my customers and enjoyed the rest of my day. The customers especially the older ones were complimenting me and asking if Mrs Brooks was alright, which I thought was really sweet and I told them she was alright but just taking it easy.

They luckily understand and didn't push it any further and I was truly in my element. It felt like I didn't have a worry in the world. The time flew by as I was having fun for once and the moment I saw that it was time to close the shop, I was already dreading going home, as I already knew what was waiting for me there.

I was locking the door when I saw Harry walking by the window and I jumped behind the register and prayed that he hadn't seen me. I carefully peeked from behind the register is he was still there and I guess it was my lucky day because he was not there anymore. I quickly logged out the register by taking the cash drawer with me to the little office space in the back. I counted the money and put it in the little safe which was behind an painting. It was an obvious choice to put a safe there but who was into say something about it.

I than went outside and cursed this dam weather. Don't get me wrong I love hot days but only when I'm off and can visit the beach. This wasn't the case so I wasn't enjoying this weather a bit. I mean I haven't even done anything and I was already sweating like crazy.
I walked into the shopping street and went to the Starbucks because I knew this was a Harry free zone and I ordered the biggest Java chip cookie frappuccino and a lemon muffin. I sat in the back and enjoyed my time. Suddenly my phone buzzed and I realised so forgot to put the sound back on as I was working the whole day.

I quickly grabbed it and saw I had a few missed messages. Harry had been texting me like crazy, which I found rather funny as he apparently wanted to speak to me and that's when I thought about a crazy plan as my parents wouldn't be home for at least 2 more days.

I would stay at a hotel so that he couldn't find me and it would give me a chance to get some sleep for a change. I quickly ran home and I came in through the back being as quiet as possible again praying that he wouldn't notice I was home because I would be in trouble for not responding to his messages.

I quickly got my stuff and ran out the back door again being as quiet as I could be and I almost felt victorious for getting out without noticing and I ran back into town entering the first hotel I saw. Luckily they still had a room for one person and I gladly took it.
The lady behind the desk gave me my room key and some instructions on breakfast and wished me a pleasant stay. I thanked her and walked towards my room.

When I entered room my mouth fell open because this room looked amazing and it was so big. I almost thanked my mom and dad for being rich. I pulled out some underwear and a shirt and went to the bathroom, which contained out of one enormous bathtub and a shower. The toilet was in a small room next to this room.

I opened the tab and added some bath foam to it. It smelled like cinnamon my most favourite sent in the world because it made me think of Christmas and the winter. I quickly got undressed and whilst getting into the tub I plugged my earphones in to listen to some music on my Iphone.

Apparently I had fallen asleep so I was a bit confused what had woken me up. It could've been the cold water but that couldn't be it as it was so hot outside. I then recognised my ringtone as it was really loud by now.

"Anna speaking" I said sleepily "where are you? I heard an angry voice asking and I was immediately awake because this was Harry. "I'm somewhere" I said cryptically and I heard something smash and I was wondering what he was throwing around. It sounded like glass but then again why should I care.

"You have to be more specific then that Anna" He demanded and to the sound of his voice he was losing his patience fast. "Nope I don't have to tell you anything Harry but I have got to go. You have a nice evening bye" I hung up the phone feeling anxious already but I had to shrug it off and just enjoy the fact that I outsmarted Harry. I got out of the bath and put on some clothes. I climbed into the bed and turned on the telly and not long after i fell asleep with a smile on my face.
