CHAPTER TWELVE

I’m loving this new hairstyle. The bathroom mirrors of GA are real and not distorted funhouse mirrors that were in my old school back home. I slide my fingers in and out of my thick hair feeling the loose waves.

Admiring my hands, I realize how slender and agile my fingers appear with nails I’m allowing to grow past my fingertips. I never had time for painting them or going in for a manicure. It is enough to manage the infrequent hair appointments.

My hair is soft and silky. Leslie does work miracles. A blast of color on my lips will make my new look pop. I paste a shade of hot red on my lips and soften into a smile. If I felt more confident in this school, I would wear more make-up because it is an asset to my looks. However, at GA, my good looks are a detriment whenever Lowell Bartlett finds me.

Let me get back to my duty in the café. I begged them to let me work in the kitchen, but they say it’s not allowed because I’m a student. I have to work on clearing the tables away refreshing the pitchers. Yes, I’m a waitress like my mother. No working in the kitchen, behind the scenes for me.

“I like your hair, did you do something different to it?” asks Myles Walston.

He’s a close friend of Lowell Bartlett, but a much nicer version of him. He has the same dark, handsome vibe going on for him, but in a non-threatening way.

He’s complimenting me and I trust it is genuine coming from Myles.

“Thank you for noticing,” I say pushing an empty chair in at his table. The others haven’t arrived yet. “I like it too. I try to treat myself sometimes, but I don’t want to send everyone into a frenzy. I can throw on the razzle-dazzle if I wanted to stand out. For now, I’ll take blending in with the crowd.”

Myles flashes a gleaming smile at me but removes it from his face as soon as his crew gathers at their table.

“Look at you,” says Lowell taking his seat at the table and gawking at me from head to toe. “This is how I like my hostess to look. You can host me anytime, Goddess.”

They all laugh except the Goodies Goodies. They look like they tasted something sour in their yogurts.

“Don’t you have trash to clean up?” asked Janyce Conway seating herself next to Lowell. “We don’t fraternize with the help, be gone, bitch.”

They all laugh out loud, except Myles, who appears to be ignoring them by looking at his phone.

“Damn, Jan, I thought Low was mean, but you’re just as low as he is. You two make the perfect pair,” says Alec patting Lowell on the back.

“Yes, we do,” says Janyce with a devilish grin on her face aimed at me. “He’s my demon twin”

It takes everything in me not to slap the shit out of this bitch’s plastic face with my water pitcher. Katelyn to the rescue, she forces me back toward the kitchen.
