The End……..

Chapter 8

Angeline Chapter 1:

I can feel your emotions like bees buzzing in my head. I try not to meet your eyes since the moment I do I can feel what you feel. Your anger, impatience, everything. And I can feel the way you look at me with pity the moment I put on my retail uniform. I can also control the way you feel too, and since you came at me in anger due to me not being able to work on your watch, I swallowed it and replaced it with calmness. Take today for example…

…I was near the end of my shift at Kyle’s today, and I was cleaning the counter since it needed a good cleaning. The jewelry was practically sparkling in the lights in the case. It was finally free of greasy fingerprints. Luckily, all the front end registers have people which means no calls for me. It was finally time to see if there was stuff to put away at the fitting room, and I went to go there when a customer walked up. The customer was an older woman with white hair, grey eyes, and wrinkles everywhere. She worked a floral print top and blue stretch pants. She came up to my counter and said, “I need a battery in my watch.” She took off the watch and handed it to me.

I looked it over…It wasn’t one we carried, in fact, it was one of the more expensive ones. Bigger than my paychecks combined.

“I’m sorry ma’am, but since it’s not a Kyle’s General store brand, we can’t work on it due to liability issues,” I said.

And she glared at me. “I have had it done before here, and this is an expensive watch. I don’t want to take it to a jeweler.” The anger radiated off her so badly I had to take a step back. I’m an empath after all. I could also swallow it and feed off it if I wanted to.

I stood my ground. “We can’t work on it since it’s not one we carried, and if they have worked on one, then they lost their job because of it. I said no.”

And since she was acting that badly to me, I decided to take it away from her and influence her since I didn’t want to keep arguing with her. The emotion of anger was like a little red ball swirling around, and I took it into me. I replaced it with the blue ball of calmness.

She relaxed and said, “Okay, I will just take it somewhere else then.” And she walked away….

I sighed, taking off my nametag and gathering clean clothes. My apartment is my place to unwind and get away from the world. Another day was done, of this job from hell at Kyle’s General store. The hot water of the shower soothed my sore muscles, but it did nothing for the goop that ran off me in clumps going down the shower drain. Clumps of negative energy residue leftover from the customers at my job.
