Beyond the Trap of Yesterday - Chapter 19: Chapter 19

Zara's pov
I ACTUALLY can't believe this shit is happening to me...
So it's been about almost 3 weeks since that day matt and Enzo and I got coffee
And everything's been going great
Enzo gets coffee and sometimes a treat before work and we have a quick little chat
And though Ava won't admit to anything she seemed super excited when Matt came into the bakery
She acted like she didn't care but I saw that small smile when he ordered a red velvet cake
I made him SWEAR to not tell her what i told him about the cake thing when we were at frozen yogurt
Anyways NOT the point! Everything was going great
UNTIL NOW! Well this technically has nothing to do with them but still
My landlord called me and told me I'm getting EVICTED! Like are you KIDDING ME! This can't be happening to me
They told me they're moving to a different location and the apartment complexes are being removed and the building will be used for god knows what
But where the HELL am I gonna live! I have a damn week to figure it out and I am so scared
I hate asking people for help
I don't wanna feel like a burden living with someone
And I know Ava won't mind but she has 2 other roommates...so I am sure they will mind
So this morning at the bakery I am absolutely in the worst mood
"He welcome what can I get you," I say not bothering to look up at who it is
"Wow, I don't think I have even seen you this unenthusiastic before... what's wrong?" Enzo says
Well shit of course it's him
"It's nothing serious I just got flipping evicted from my apartment," I say rolling my eyes
"Oh shit I'm sorry zar," he says
"It's fine it's not your fault, I am just upset cus I don't know how the hell I'm supposed to move somewhere in a week, I mean It's hard to find places in my budget"
"How long do you have ?" He asks
I sigh " a week"
"Damn..."l he mumbles
"Damn is right"
"Well how about your stay at my place"
HOLY SHIT! Did he just say what I think he said
"No way I don't want to impose, absolutely not," I say
"Well it actually would be better honestly since you help out with Mia" he shrugs
Shit he has a point there
"And I wouldn't mind seeing you every day" he laughs
I smile at that
"You already see me almost every day" I shake my head
"Well? What do you think" he says
"I mean you could stay at Ava's I guess if your more comfortable, I don't know just an idea since your Mia's nanny at this point"
"I doubt she would want anyone else watching her, to be honest, you are the perfect nanny to her and friend" he smiles up at me
Well shit if that's not the sweetest compliment I don't know what is
"Well, Ava has roommates so I can't stay there..." I sigh
"I'll think about it then" I smile
"Well you have a week," he says
Well shit
"Can we like go out to eat or something and talk more later ?" I say
"Of course I'll pick you up after your shift and we can go then," he says taking his coffee and muffin
"Okay, have a good day at work enz" I smile
"Thank you muffin you to" he laughs and winks
I'm now in the back with Ava baking
"YOU GOT WHAT! That stupid-ass landlord! I can't believe this" Ava says angrily
"Ya, I KNOW!" I say
"Well what the hell are you gonna do, I mean I can always squeeze you in at my place," she says
Man this girl would do anything for me even if she knows her roommates won't like the idea of another person living there
"No it's ok I know your roommates won't like that"
"who gives a rats ass about them, you're my best friend Zara" She says
"Enzo actually offered I stay at his house," I say mixing the batter
"HOLY SHIT, You could've started with that? Instead of making me think you would be homeless or some shit" she says while shoving my shoulder
"SORRY, So you think it's a good idea?" I say
"WELL YES, Plus your watching Mia so it's convenient" she shrugs
"Yeah true"
---after work when she's out to eat with Enzo---
"Are you sure Enzo?" I say
"Why wouldn't I be, plus I told you I don't do what i don't want to do..." he says
"Zara you're forgetting the fact that I'm a multi-millionaire...I could've easily bought you a place, but I'm offering for you to stay with us" he says sternly
"Yeah I guess," I say poking at my food
"So?" He says
"Alright fine, I'll move in with you, but are you sure Mia would want that?" I ask
"Definitely, I told her about the possibility before I came in here and she wouldn't stop jumping up and down with excitement thinking about you possibly staying with us" he smiles
Well that's cute
"Alright then" I smile
"And thank you, it really means a lot Enzo" I smile
"It's no problem," he says
"Do you possibly have a white room?" I ask remembering the fact his house is pretty dark and me and dark don't mix
I don't like the memories the dark holds with my past and his house is pretty dark...
"Ya, I have a white room next to mine, why? You don't like the dark aesthetic" he laughs
"You I don't know, I'm not a fan of the dark it stresses me out," I say
"But it's fine I'll get used to it," I say
"I can always have people come and make everything lighter" he shrugs
"No don't do that you're already going through too much trouble with me moving to your place," I say
Shit i shouldn't have even asked
He doesn't say anything just rolls his eyes
"Ok so I can have you moved in, in about 4 days," he says
"Ok thank you again" I smile
Good seems like the whole dark thing went over his head...thank god
We then finish eating and he drops me off at my place
And I start to slowly pack away things into box's
