*still in new York*
Aurora having a hard time finding a cab.
She stood at a pedestrian way of the streets and stuck out her hands trying to flag down a cab.
It was already seven o'clock and she was already late for work.
After waiting for five more minutes a cab finally pul up in front of her.
She breath in relief and got into the cab directly the driver to her destination.
After riding for fifteen minutes she finally got to the hotel where she worked.
She got down, paid the cabby man and proceeded into the huge building.
As soon as she's in she entered the elevator which took her straight to the fifth floor.
She got out and rushed to the changing room where she change into her work dress. She then wore a black face cap before proceeding out taking the laundry basket.
She came out of the change room in possession of a large laundry basket before proceeding to the suites lined up on one block.
She gently ranged the intercom alert and a voice boom up.
"Whose there?"
The female voice asked.
"Laundry service ma'am"
Aurora replied.
Shortly the door opened and she was ushered into the room.
"The bathroom door is this way"
The young lady said nonchalantly and pointed to the left before sanking down on her bed giggling to something from her phone.
Aurora did the need and left just the way she came.
The routine went on and on for God knows how long.
Soon she came to suite num.012.
She tanged he intercom alert for more than three times before the owner's voice came up.
"Whose there?"
The deep gruffy voice came up as if in a whisper.
"Luandry service sire"
She answered.
"Come in. Thr door ain't locked"
The voice said again.
She slowly turned the door knob and entered the partially blind room.
She squeesed her face or some moment before her eyes got acquainted to the dark dim light.
But as soon as she was relaxed t the dim light the smell of cigarettes hit her noise.
She blocked her nose lightly and coughed irritatingly.
Fear gripped her as she tried to look at who was sitter quietly at the corner,legs crossed and he was puffing out smoke from his nostril and mouth.
"Don't worry i dont bite"
The man said slowly.
But the voice sounds kinda fermilier.
It was as if she's heard it somewhere but can point where exactly.
Slowly, she mustered enough courage and ampled towards the young but scary looking guy.
She searched his face carefully and the it dawn on her that it was the same guy at the cafe. The one she was lost staring at.
"You!"
She said.
"Woah! Can't believe you'd follow me down to my suite for the quickie. But anyways I'm really nuts right now and I need a good f**k. We could just do it over night then"
The guy teased Aurora.
It only got her irritated,angry and afraid at the same time.
She didn't realize she was sweating.
"I'm not here for you,I work here. In fact, I just wish I'd never see your face agin but I guess today's bad luck is just too much for me to handle"
Aurora stated calmly trying to maintain her cool.
"Hmm fiesty huh! I like it white hair"
The man said and Aurora's eyes glinted with anger.
"Don't call me that!"
She snapped her eyes towards him.
"Woah girl I dont bite. I was just teasing you ok. Do you really think I'll take advantage of a teenager.well think again"
The guy said and laughed out lightly.
"Well I don't care!"
She snapped.
"So o you MIMD telling me your name? I mean,since you don't want me to call you white hair."
The guy asked slowly putting out the fire on his cigarettes.
"I don't talk to strangers. If you dont mind can I have the laundry now? I really dont wanna talk to you"
Aurora said effortlessly.
"Hmmm. I like your type lady,and oh I dont mean it the other way before you'll think such."
The guy teased beaming slightly.
"Thanks for the offer mister. I have better things to do"
Aurora snapped once more.
"Hmm Aurora! Nice name"
The guy said as if he suddenly remembered something.
Aurora looked at him in outmost shock. She couldn't decipher how he was able to fathom her name that easily.
"How did you know my name"
Aurora scorned.
"My name is Jeffrey but just call me Jeff. Can we be friends"
The guy who is known as Jeff asked instead of replying Aurora. He stretched out his hand for a shake.
"Ion keep friends!"
She said calmly.
"Well I wanna be your friend and there's nothing you can do about it!"
The guy smirked sarcastically making Aurora laugh at the face he was making.
"Well I see"
Aurora replied teasing him also. She was beginning to get familiar with him little by little.
"At least be a lady and accept my gentle handshake. My palms her aching"
Jeff said.
Aurora shook him reluctantly but with a little ease.
"So why don't you have any friends?"
Jeffrey asked.
"Its because I don't like talking OE interacting much. Also,I barely have time for a good night sleep how can I have one for other people, am already preoccupied with my mother at the moment"
She said and didn't realize she had unconsciously blurted out her mother in the conversation. She quickly s**t hwrselve up before wge said more.
"So you have a mother? I thought you where an orphan."
He said.
"Well it nor something you should know of for now"
She replied him.
"Ok since you say so"
H
Jeff raised his hands in a surrender manner.
Technically aurora ended up having a chit chat with the Jeffrey guy and they seem to get acquintef well despite their both different lifestyle and age difference.
Aurora told hi. Just both a little of herself. She was sure to be careful
Jeff also told her that he was in new York for some business.
After that she packed the luandry and proceeded outta the door.
Jeff stared at her retreating figure.
'I'm not sure but something tell me she might be a good candidate for what I'm looking for' he thought to himself..

On the other hand Aurora just got out of the hot suite.
She lean on the door and let out a relieving breath after leaving the hit room.
She was sweating profusely.
'What was I thinking making friends with that haggard looking guy'
She slapped her subconsciousness.
'Well thank goodness I don't drool like the other time. Just great I've never had a friend before and the first one I make turns out to be him! Just great"
She thought before proceeding to the other suites to finish up the collecting of clothes.
After then she procceds to clean them and dey them up before taking the back to the owners.
