Chapter 103

Layla’s pov

By taking a ride with Tiff and her brother, I had successfully avoided Tyler all after school. His texts were still littered on my phone and I had yet to check them out.

This was the real deal. I was going to be paid twenty dollars an hour and I was only going to work from four to six for five days a week. Seems good to me and if I don’t get fired, I’d have a new laptop in a couple of weeks.

“You look nervous.” The woman with the rainbow colored hair in two plaits said with a crooked smile on her face as she lifts her gaze from the notepad to set them on me.
