Zion

days later

I sat behind the counter struggling to keep my eyes open.

I haven't had a good sleep in some days due to the fact that we go out looking for Nick every night for hours straight.

We even put out a missing persons report for him and still no luck.

I'm really fucking worried at this point.

"Zion!"

The yell from my manager directly into my ear made me jump up as I groaned.

I didn't even realize my eyes were closed.

I looked over at her and she was really in in my personal space.

"Yes?" I asked moving back some.

"Go help those customers over there. I ain't paying you to come in here and sleep." She told me.

"over here looking half dead with all them bags under your eyes and shit."

"Bit-

I want this job too much.

"yes ma'am."
I faked a smile and got up.

I deadass want to quit sometimes.

Even Jay keeps telling me that I should but nah. I wouldn't have met Nick or Jay if it wasn't for this footlocker.

Even if I do have to deal with my bitch ass manager, I do really like it here.

I rubbed my eyes and started walking over to the little girl and her mom I assume.

She was smiling as she looked at the wall of shoes in awe.

"Can I help you cutie?" I asked looking down at her.

She motioned me to come closer so I crouched down beside her and she giggled.

"i wan tat wun peas!" She said pointing to some pink converse.

"Do you know your shoe size?"

She held up 2 fingers and I looked at her mom for confromation.

"She actually wears a 3." Her mom told me.

"No! I two!" The little girl said pulling on my shirt.

"I two! I two!"

Her mom shook her head.
"Stop pulling on him Nani." She said picking her up.

"I'm so sorry."

"No it's okay." I smiled.
"So how about I come back with both and we'll see what size you need Okay cutie?" I asked her.

"kay." She agreed.

I walked off and went to the back to get both pairs.

I looked around in the boxes before feeling my phone vibrate in my pocket.

Making sure my manager wasn't around first, I then took it out hoping for Nick but seeing that I just had a message from my mom.
