Ficool

Chapter 1 - CHAPTER 1

I have always had a dream, and in that dream my parents and I are happy. They always shower me with everything I need. I wish I could never wake up from this dream.

**************************

" Hey Liv!"Lucy, one of the sales girls, her colleague to be precise startled her.

They were in the dressing room. Earlier Lucy had noticed how lost Liv looked so she tip-toed to her.

" Geez Lucy you scared me. Why do you like doing that all the time?", Liv, who had regained herself, walked towards the long mirror to check out herself before heading out.

" What do you want me to do then? I saw how lost you were and decided to go on with my normals", she jokingly said, following her behind.

" Today is another day, I wish I could be like those rich kids that don't have to work", Lucy murmurs while taking care of her hair.

" Then it is good that you aren't rich then", Liv teased her

Lucy was done checking herself and spared Liv a glance from her hair to where her eyes stopped

Her bre*st

"OMG! What happened to your uniform? Lucy asked Liv a little to her direction for a clearer view.

" What about my uniform?"lost Liv asked, running through herself again with the help of the mirror.

Lucy let out a heavy sigh,

" You're so lucky. Having something like this while they are others who have a chest throughout their life".

Liv stares at her confused,

" What are you blabbing about? Flat chest? I think it is better we head out before the others start looking for us".

" But what are you going to do about your uniform? It seems you can button it completely"

Liv walks up to her locker and locks it before heading out,

" I noticed but I can't do anything about it. At least it not that obvious"

" Not obvious for you, once the manager sees you, she will make it obvious", Lucy childishly says.

They reached their counter which is always in charge of selling watches. After every six hours, they will make turns with their colleagues.

Hours passed and it was only 10am,

" I can't believe we only made six sales", Lucy complains, stretching herself.

They both stood at the counter wearing smiles they forced on themselves,

" At least we had customers who came for purchasing not checking out the watches"

" Still no one left a tip for us", Lucy pressed on.

Liv let out a brief laugh,

" If you want a tip, why not work at a bar. There are many customers who will want to invest in you there", Liv suggested, of course it was to pull her legs. She didn't mean it.

" You are not helping at all", Lucy said, her eyes scanning through all the customers that were passing until her eyes landed on one.

" Mr. Hanson!", she didn't know when she said the name out loud. 

Liv follows the direction of her eyes and it landed on the man that seems to be approaching their stand. Their counter was the last in the store.

" You know him?"

Lucy scoffs,

" Everyone knows him. I thought he would save some face by not showing up at this store again, I was wrong"

She shook her head.

Lucy observed how his eyes pierced through every girl he passes. If his eyes were to be a camera, he would have a lot of photos by now.

Lucy clicks her tongue in disgust,

" Better be careful of him", she warns Liv who kept observing the man.

She knew what Lucy was talking about but she didn't care. All that matters to her was getting the customers to buy the product.

" Why would he try something disgusting in public? This is an open space"

Lucy laughs over what she said,

" Believe me, no one cares about that. They just want to keep their customers. He has funds and the store wants those funds. How will they have it if they kick him out".

Those words made sense to Liv, that means she had to be careful with her words and how she acted not to get fired. 

Landing this job wasn't easy, even if she had stolen someone's resumè to get it, it still wasn't easy for her.

" Lucy", the voice called out from behind.

They both turned at the same time,

" Miss Rose, what is the matter?", Liv asked, seeing how worried she was.

" I'm sorry Liv, you will have to handle the stand on your own. There is no one at the cosmetic counter, since Lucy is good at makeup I'll have to steal her away for now" she explains, waiting for the girls to decide.

" You don't have to think much about it, I'll send someone to assist you Liv", she assures her.

" Okay, I'll go", Lucy finally said after much thinking.

" Don't worry, I'll be able to handle this", Liv reassures.

"Ehn Ehn" 

Hanson clears his throat attracting their attention,

" No wonder I couldn't breath well, so he eventually came here"

Lucy loathes.

Rose cautioned her by hitting her at her back,

" Sorry Mr. Hanson, please have a look at the different pieces displayed. We will leave you to that"

She drags Lucy out of the counter who tried resisting worries about Liv.

Liv, on the other hand, signals her with her eyes that she will be fine.

" May I have a look at the latest collections?", Hanson requested, trying to get her attention.

Liv composed herself and wore a smile on her face. She got close to the counter pulling out the latest collections of the watches,

 " This is the Casio Oceanus manta S600 Titanium watch", she said staring at him before continuing,

" It doesn't wear out and it is resistant to water. I think it suit you very well, with the color it matches your outfits"

She finishes explaining just to realize that his eyes were all into her chest.

This was way too much for her, this man was really despicable.

" So sir",

She raises her voice to get his attention which was successful,

" Will you like to get this piece?", 

Her eyes were dangerous at this point, it looked like killer vibes.

This only made the man more interested in her.

" With the look on your face, someone would think I have been harassing you",

He said leaning on the counter.

Is he serious right now, wasn't staring at my bre*st already considered as an harassment.

Liv took a deep breath to avoid lashing out.

" The piece you just showed me looked cheap for someone like me. Just pick out expensive pieces and I'll pay for them. No need to show them to me"

He smiled at her, but she felt like throwing up.

Since he said he needed something expensive, why don't we give him what he wishes for.

With this thought, Liv thought she could use this opportunity to get revenge for herself, so she picked out watches that were way too expensive. Since his job was to go around looking for girls to seduce, Liv bet he didn't plan on spending so much.

And of course, she used the card the man placed on the glass for the payment. When she was done, she packaged all the pieces in their customized bag and handed over the card and his purchased pieces over to him.

He straightens up, taking the bag from her. He kept throwing that flirtatious behavior, with his eyes that kept winking. 

She pulls out the receipt and handed it over to him,

" Thank you for shopping with us", she greeted handing him the receipt which he romanced before taking it.

Liv manages to pretend like that didn't happen. Whereas Hanson's eyes widens when he saw the amount,

'200,000$...."

He searches the bag to see the pieces that would have cost that amount.

He laughs at a ridiculous one which Liv returns knowing what she had done.

" You really have a way of serving your customers huh?", he tried composing himself in order to get her attention and for himself.

Liv is a stunning young lady with a great figure, sometimes the way she carries herself tells a different story about her.

Today, she wasn't in the mood for pleasantries. All that played in her head was how to gather money to pay for her dad's bills and the debt her mom kept piling for her.

" That is what we are trained for", she replies wearing a fake smile.

Hanson looks young with a great figure even in his late forties. He is known as a flirt to many, people always say maybe his wife doesn't satisfy him at home.

He is always seen at bars or the stores because he believes that is where the pretty ladies are hiding.

He walks round the counter to the exact spot Liv was standing,

" I work in one of the largest oil companies, why don't we add each other on any social media platform you are on. I'll contact you if I need more watches", he whispers into her ears.

Liv shifted giving a gap between them with a crossed arm,

" Firstly, you are not supposed to be inside the counter but on the other side since you're a customer. Secondly, I'm sorry I don't have any social platform whatever to give you"

He chuckles over her words taking a step closer to her,

" Why are you so stiff? Many sales girls are dying to get my contact. It won't kill you to have mine", he says, placing his left hand around her waist.

Liv releases her arms, hitting the man's hands away from her body,

" Are you out of your mind, if you don't leave now, I'll call the securities on you", she threatens, her voice shaking.

She tried pulling a strong face not to give herself away. She hates it when people see her as someone weak, someone who can be easily controlled. Just like the way her mother treats her.

 

Hanson's eyes darken, he was getting fed up with her. Just staring at the whole package thing In front of him, he wanted to pin her so badly on his bed.

He cunningly looked around to see if anyone was watching, this counter was the last in the store. No one pays attention to it except someone interested in buying watches. When he saw no one was paying attention he moved closer to her,

" Why are you resisting me huh? Am I not built enough", he unbuttoned his shirt trying to seduce her.

When she wanted to scream he blocked her mouth with his palm, and ran through her butts giving himself satisfaction.

She bit his palm to free her mouth, this made him stumble backwards. 

" You bitch", he raises his hand to hit her when someone holds him back.

Liv, whose eyes were closed, opened them slowly when she didn't feel any hit on her face.

When her vision became clearer, she noticed two men, or should I say a man and a guy.

One was practically younger than the other, he was covered in a mask and wore dark glasses. His outfit was all black too with a black cap.

Liv was wondering if the day was a black day for him to dress like that. The other seems to be his bodyguard since he was in a suit with a clean haircut.

" Who are you to touch me, do you know who I am?!", Hanson's voice was loud enough to gather people's attention.

The young guy lets go of him, he stretches his palm out and his bodyguard gives him a wiper to wipe his hands which he does.

Liv stares at how he finishes wiping his palms and how the bodyguard takes it from him.

Hanson also witnessed this which made him more angry,

" What do you think you are doing? cleaning your hands, are you trying to say i am dirty?"

" I'm glad you realize that. Actually, I hate it when dirt get on me, it is a habit I just developed", the young guy answers walking to the customer stands.

His voice was calm, no stress but every little word he let out was a straight bullet.

" Who do you think you are? Do you know who I am? One call from me and you will be arrested", Hanson threatens but his words were like an old radio looking for a signal. 

To stop the radio from disturbing, he signals his bodyguard. 

Liv stares at the way he carries himself, even the bodyguard seems extraordinary too. The way he is able to understand him even if he didn't talk was amazing.

The bodyguard walks up to Hanson pulling out a card from his suite and shows it to him.

Hanson's mouth dropped open. He grips his trousers till he feels his thigh in pain. He felt embarrassed, he knew he could get fired and his life would end at any second.

He looks up to the masked guy whom he now know his identity,

" I-I'm sorry".

He stammers

" This is all a misunderstanding", he tries to lie still staring at the guy in front of him.

Even if he was all covered up, Hanson knew by his worth, he could end him any second.

"I am not the one you should be apologizing to", the guy corrected.

Hanson, hearing this, quickly turns to Liv who was confused by his sudden change of behavior.

" I'm sorry miss, I didn't know what I was doing…"

" Didn't know?", the guy cut in, playing with his fingers.

" No, no. I knew what I was doing. I was stupid, please I know you are kind, please forgive me", he pleads.

Liv couldn't put up with his lies and pretense, she knew he was only apologizing so h

e could free himself. She just wanted him out of her sight,

" Just get lost and don't let me see you anywhere near here".

Hanson nods and runs off leaving his package behind.

Now the problem was solved, it was only Liv now left with this mysterious guy.
