Back With The Twins~Are You Ready To Apologize?

Two Years Later

"I need an iced coffee!"

"Jessy, table two needs two iced coffees and an Americano"

"Two lattes and an Americano for table four"

Jessica's head was filled with different orders. She wondered why her second hadn't signed in yet.

She was supposed to drop an application at a company that was recruiting workers in an hour. She had to leave early to arrive on time.

Jessica tried her best to satisfy every customer so she won't be scolded by her grumpy boss. That man would bring down the roof on her if any of the customers complained. He was too stingy to hire more workers even when he knew they required more hands.

Jessica had taken up several jobs so far and now she was working at a coffee shop just down the street. She prefers working there because there is no need for transportation. After all, it was just down the street. During lunch, she could simply skip over to the house to have her lunch.

All in a bid to save money. The twin's education had to be taken care of including rental and other miscellaneous bills.

After Jessica's father fainted a year ago, he had severe heart failure. It was so severe he had to undergo surgery. They had to sell most of their possessions to revive him through surgery. The bank collected their house and their company was shut down.

Her father's friends and relatives all deserted them, claiming her father was involved in drug trafficking. They said all sorts of bad words against him.

"You are a stain on our family name!"

"We can't be seen together with your family. You are a disgrace to the Graves"

"How could you think of doing such a thing? Now our family name's been dragged into the mud because of you!"

"Who would have thought that he was such a snake! A poisonous one at that! How could you sell such drugs? You are wiping out generations!"

" I can't believe I was friends with such a dangerous person! And he claims to be a doctor! Or is it a laboratory scientist? What a shame!"

The family of five had to move to a smaller apartment downtown where they were not known, for fear of mockery by their so-called friends and family.

Luckily for Jessica, she had paid her tuition for the final year. She just had to bear all criticism as she wrote her final year examination.

"I can't believe she came to write the exam"

"Her family is in a mess and her father is at the point of death yet she still came to write the exams"

"It's obvious she doesn't have a future yet she is trying desperately to cling to it"

"Serves her right! She always claims to be a fashionista. I wonder how horrible her dressing would turn out to be!"

Amidst all the mockery, she put on a brave front for the two weeks she had in college. After her exams, to fend for her family, she delved into any menial job that could fetch her money. They had been surviving on her little pay job.

With her results out, she had been searching for a job that could pay her better. She was still lost in her thoughts when her phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello…"

"Jessy! I finally got hold of you! Thank goodness! Where the hell have you hidden all these while? Even if you were hiding from everyone, will I also be included? I thought I was your friend!" An angry voice began scolding her as soon as she picked up.

Just by her voice, Jessy knew it was her bosom friend talking. Angela was her childhood friend but they had to part ways when their family relocated abroad. They lost contact when Jessy stopped using her old line as soon as they moved out of their house.

"Angie… I… I am so sorry… I just… " Jessy didn't know what to tell her friend.

"Jessy! We need two lattes and an Americano on tables four and five! Hurry up and drop that call!" Her boss's voice said, getting pissed.

Jessica was also pissed off too. Her time was over but that damn girl that was supposed to take over from her was nowhere to be found. And the annoying part was that her boss won't pay her for the additional time spent. If not that she didn't need the job, she would have quit a long time ago.

"Angie, I need to go but I will be available in four hours. I will call you as soon as I am free" Jessy said.

"Alright, Jessy. Don't forget to call me. I will be waiting" Angie said, reluctant to end the call.

"I won't, Angie!" Jessica said, cutting the call hurriedly so she could get the orders ready.

Finally, an hour later, her second came with an apology. But Jessica had no time to waste because she had to go and submit her application letter as soon as possible.

She heard they were recruiting workers for the Turner Group of Company. She wanted to try her luck if she could get the position of secretary.

Picking up her bag, she walked swiftly trying to leave the Cafe as soon as she could. Unfortunately, she bumped into a muscular chest.

"Ouch! I am so sorry, please!" Jessica said, without looking at the person. After apologizing, with her head still bowed she turned to leave.

"Where do you think you are going, bitch! Do you know who you just bumped into?" A female voice shrieked as she drew Jessica back, holding her hair.

It felt as though Jessica's head was about to be separated from her neck. The girl's grip was so strong!

"I already apologize, Miss. Please, I am sorry. I was in a hurry and I didn't look where I was going… ouch! You are hurting me!" Jessica said, whimpering in pain.

" Let her go, Jane," A sexy baritone voice said. The voice was so alluring that Jessica had the urge to see the person.

She raised her head gradually and their eyes met. The man had the most gorgeous hazel eyes ever. There was a playful smirk on his face and his sexy plump lips looked tempting.

Jessica could feel those hazel eyes roaming all over her body. She suddenly felt naked before his eyes.

"Pervert!" She cursed, softly.

Then she turned around and left not knowing she just triggered a wild beast in the man.
