My P. O. V
So far my life has gone great.. lie! It's not been great. My mom got out of a job, my sister has cancer, and my dad left us. We were broke and food was never on the table. Blessingly my mom found an ad in the newspaper who were looking for a cleaning lady who can clean a hotel. My mom came into the job interview and she got in. So for many years I helped mom with the cleaning so we could gain more money. But to tell you the truth... I thought this was never going to happen.. I mean.. I'm only 14 going on 15.. obviously I don't have time for this.. but I guess.. I needed it. Anyways enough about me. Let's get on with this story. Oh and buckle up.. this story has its ups and downs
Mackenzie: oh how beautiful it is today.. it's so beautiful. *I say looking at the window with a beautiful view *
Mom: Mackenzie we don't have time for this! .. the Henderson's are coming and my boss told me that everything has to be perfect! *my mom said hastily doing the bed*
Mackenzie: fine... but when I'm going to go outside? .. it's beautiful today. *I say as I look at my mother *
Mom: soon just help me with the bed.
Mackenzie: okay okay I'm going. *i helped my mom do the bed. I noticed her bun was almost undoing itself. My moms hands fixed the sheets making them flat. Her delicate white hands flattened the bed. This was not good.. my mom is a pretty lady. She didn't deserve to be here working like non stop* Okay are we done? *i say trying to fight the worried look on my face*
Mom: yes you may go outside. But come back at 3:00 pm *she looks at me with happiness in her face. But I could the sadness all over her face *
Mackenzie: Okay see you soon *i ran from the upstairs suite and downstairs to the patio. I finally made it to seats and sat down with my phone. A few minutes later I looked to see a limousine and I saw a few people getting out of the limousine. A couple with their 3 kids came out and I then noticed the time on my phone. 2:58 pm. Dang it I was going to be late. I ran out and ran back upstairs. *
Mom: Mackenzie! *she said me already knowing I was going to get a lecture about being on time*
Mackenzie: what Im here. So what now?
Mom: come on. I want you to help me with the setting of the table downstairs. *she walked downstairs to a grand ballroom and I followed her. She grabbed a cart filled with plates and utensils and cups* I need you to place them on how I taught you.
Mackenzie: *i nodded and pulled the cart while I placed the things on the table like posh people do. A few minutes later when I was on the last three tables. The family I saw earlier had come and began to come my way*
Mrs. Henderson : Excuse me young lady. Is this table finished? *i looked at the woman and noticed what she was wearing. She was wearing a blue satin long dress her hair well down up and her necklace looked so beautiful *
Mackenzie: um yes please sit. *i said gesturing the family where they're name tags were placed. I then walked away and noticed someone dropped their napkin. I walked back to the table and picked it up* um I think you dropped this *i said grabbing the napkin and looking down *
Jackson: oh thanks *i looked up to see a boy who was wearing a suit and his hair was well done too. He smiled at me and I felt like I could be with someone like him* um.. a-are you okay? *i stop gazing and I smile *
Mackenzie: y-yes I-I... I here *i shoved the napkin at him and he took it and smiled. I smiled back and ran to the kitchen. My mom was there doing the flower arrangements. She gave me that look on like "can you please do something for me?" This wasn't good. I already made a fool out of myself with that guy and now I had to go back outside.* Sure I can bring the flowers to the table. *i grabbed the vase carefully and I walked back to the table. I placed the vase with beautiful flowers on the center of the table. I looked at the flowers and smiled *
Jackson : Wow those flowers are so beautiful. *i looked at him and I noticed he was talking to me. Me? Why me? *
Mackenzie: yeah.. my mom is amazing with flowers. She likes doing flower arrangements.
Jackson: Well she's doing a great job. I love how the flowers surround the vase. *he smiled at me. His beautiful green eyes looked back at me*
Mackenzie: I-I.. I have to go. *I ran back inside the kitchen * Mom is there anything you need? *she looks at me and smiled *
Mom: no honey you can have your free time. *i gave a breathe of relief and I smiled at her and walked back to the patio. I sat with my phone and looked at the beautiful sky. The sun was shining nicely on the hotel and the sky was as blue as ever. The clouds moved slowly but it didn't rain. It was truly a beautiful day. *
Jackson: i swear you must be following me or I'm following you. *he smiled and laughed slightly. I looked back at him*
Mackenzie: *i laughed nervously * y-yeah I'm .. I'm not following you. I just had free time and I like going to the patio. *i looked back at the beautiful view*
Jackson: may I sit with you? *i looked at him and thought for a moment then nod and scotched over so he could sit* Wow it's so beautiful today.
Mackenzie: yeah it is. *i look at the view not paying attention to him*
Jackson: I kind of snuck out and went here. Right now I'm supposably in the bathroom *i laughed slightly *
Mackenzie: what's so bad being in there. I mean obviously you came because you wanted to come. *i still looked at the view so I couldn't see his face*
Jackson: my parents dragged me so I could come to an event they were invited too. It's actually really boring.
Mackenzie: oh well.. your always welcome to come and sit here. *i say still looking at the view*
Jackson: or.. I.. I could just come and hang out with you. *i look back at him and blush I never noticed how sweet he was. He smiled at me and I smiled at him* U-unless y-you don't want me too I mean it is weird b-because you don't know me and I don't know you b-but I like you.. a lot *he blushed and looks down and I look back at him. I blush. Does he mean I like you like I love you? Or like I like you as a friend? Who cares I .. I enjoyed his company and I intend to just keep it low key* *his phone beeps* I got to go my dad is getting worried about me. *he looks at me then he did the unexpected .. he leans in and kissed my cheek * until next time.. *he gets up and looks at me* um I didn't catch your name.
Mackenzie: oh its Mackenzie.. b-but you can call me Mack. *he looks at me and smiled *
Jackson: mine is Jackson. *he smiles and he runs back inside. I sat there alone and starting squealing. I got my first kiss. Well not really it's technically a kiss on a cheek but who cares he kissed me! Aaaa! I'm so happy! I smiled and blushed and looked at the view. Maybe life was going to get better.. I mean.. what could possibly go wrong?
