Ellas POV

"Yeah this is my last shift, I appreciate everything. I had a great time working here Bob".

"It was great to have you sweetheart. Been loyal since you were 17". Bob said pulling me into a hug.

This was my last night working at bobs.

I have a few interviews in line for this week and I plan on getting a higher paying job.

"I'll be in the front till 9, let me know if you need me". I said smiling as he nodded his head.

I walked back down to the front desk and took a seat.

All day I've been making sure everything is clean, stocked and in order.

I'm gonna miss this place.

..
I checked my phone and swiped up on my notifications seeing nothing .

Of course.

It has been a week since I've heard from Von.

I've left him about 10 messages and got no response.

I can't even lie, I cried for a day or too. And I'm not sure why.

It just seemed to be an on and off thing with Dayvon .
He came into my life whenever he wanted and then disappeared.

I hate this.
I hate feeling this way.

It honestly hurts to see that after everything he doesn't care.

I can't help but think it has something to do with the rapist conversation.
I could tell by the way his whole attitude changed when we talked about it.

Maybe it is my fault.
No, worrying will only cause more stress. It's like putting myself through suffering a second time.

So I've decided not to thing about it anymore.
Forget about Von.

Foreal this time.

This whole week, I've been trying to work on myself since the whole thing.

I already have a few interviews lined up for office jobs, fashion designer, tech , etc.

I'm also thinking about putting myself in a business or cosmetic class to get my license.

It made me happy that I was finally getting myself in order.

Soon everything  would fall into place.

Ill finally have enough to get out of Chicago.

It's just one thing from my life that's missing .....
