Escaping My Reality

Escaping My Reality - Back to Normal?

Escaping My Reality - Back to Normal?

Sep 05, 2023


While preparing her breakfast cereal in the kitchen, she’s spacing out and still has no idea what happened.

“I remember all of what happened.. Is it just a dream? But I pinched myself and it hurt me.”

She checked her phone and received many missed calls and messages from her employee Luna.

She reads every message.

“Nayla, where are you?! We have packages to ship! I need help with these 100+ orders but the part-timer also didn’t answer her phone.”

“SOS please, there are also customers coming”

After she reads it, she dresses immediately and runs on the way to the shop.

Where the heck is that part-timer! I swear this will be the last time and I’ll fire her.

While rushing and running to the shop she calls Luna.

“Sorry for the missed calls and messages, I’m on the way right now.”

“It’s fine but we only have 4 hours to pack before the courier arrives.”

“4 hours?! For 100 packages?!”

“Yes, I already called the courier but they said it’s scheduled at that time and we can’t extend it any longer, there’s also another shop they need to go to.”

“Okay, I’m almost there. See you in 10 minutes.”

Just by thinking about all the work she needs to do, she’s tired already.

While rushing to the shop she accidentally bumps into a man.

The man's appearance is cool and intimidating at the same time, black hair and eyes, wearing a jacket and jeans.


With a sorry look on her face, Nayla said,

“I’m sorry, I’m in such a hurry.”

“It’s fine, you should look where you’re going next time.”

After he said that he walked away.

Huh?! He’s the one who appears out of nowhere and I’m the one at fault?

-----------

Nayla finally arrives at the shop with people waiting in line while Luna is panicking with the orders online and the customers in the shop.

“Why are you late?!” Luna asks her with tears in her eyes and hits her on the shoulder.

“Ouch! Sorry, I’ll tell you later. Let’s handle the orders first.”

She apologized to the customers who waited for a long time and gave them freebies, She managed and organized the orders right on time when the courier arrived, and because of this distraction, she even forgot what happened to her dream. They took a break from their work since there were fewer customers to accommodate.

“Wow, I’m still amazed with how you handle things,” Luna said.

“Well, I’ve been doing this for a long time now.”

“I don’t know where that brat is! She’s still not picking up the phone.”

“This is her final warning, I’ll put up the sign now since she’s fired”

Luna is afraid of the smile of Nayla because she doesn’t know if she’s genuinely happy or mad, but it’s really both. Nayla is relieved since it's such a headache for her to handle a stubborn part-timer.

They put up the sign for hiring a salesperson and posted it on their Facebook page.

Nayla also sent a message to the part-timer that she doesn’t need to come since she’s fired.

Their day is about to end and Luna is preparing to leave but Nayla catches her.

“Hey! We still have 30 minutes to close the shop, why are you preparing to leave?”

With a fake smile on Luna’s face, she replies,

“Hehehe, I’m just looking for my phone, do you know where I put it?”

Nayla just stared at her with a squint look on her face.

“Found it! It’s here all this tim-”

Someone familiar enters the shop interrupting their conversation.

“Excuse me, I saw the sign that you’re hiring. I would like to apply for the position.”

The man smiles at Nayla, but she’s confused about why that person is in her shop.

"Yo- You!"
