Chapter 5 Shopping

It was no other person than Grace, she was wearing a blue playsuit that looked very expensive. It was definitely designer.

"Hi, good morning. How can I help you?" Noelle asked

"Yes, can you fix me breakfast?"

"Sure, what would you like? We have our menu right here." Noelle said handing the menu to Grace. She skimmed through and settled on eggs and bacon with a cup of coffee.

"No sugar please, I do not take sugar" Grace said

"Okay I will be back soon with your order." Noelle replied and walked away.

Few minutes later she was back with Grace's order.

"Can you sit for a while? We have to talk." Grace said

"I am really sorry but I can not. I am working right now and my boss would not like me siting around talking with a customer." Noelle politely refused.

"I guess we will talk better when you get home, Ariana has been acting up since last night. So we will talk in your room. I am done with the contract. I will show it to you later and explain the details to you." Grace said

"Okay, that is totally fine by me. Enjoy your meal" Noelle replied and walked away.

The rest of the day went by in a blur, they had a reasonable amount of customers and the rush made Noelle tired. It sealed her decision to help Grace with her plan. She could not continue serving people and enduring the stress for a small amount of money. When she could have revenge and get five million dollars.

When the diner closed, she ran home eagerly. Even though she was tired, she still had energy to run. The fact that she was meeting Grace later and was going to sign the contract this evening fueled her speed.

She finally got home after a few minutes. She took a shower and went to Ariana's apartment. She knocked for a while but there was no reply. She remembered that Grace said to meet in her room instead. She was about to leave when the door opened. Ariana walked out and closed the door behind her.

"Hi" Noelle greeted

"Hey" Ariana replied coldly

"Is Grace in?"

"No"

"Stop lying, come in Noelle" Grace yelled from inside.

Noelle went in and she saw Grace siting in the dining. Grace motioned for her to join her.

"So like I said this morning, I am done with drawing the contract. I have put some things in place to make your job easier. Just sign here, you can read through if you want" Grace said

"Nah, that is unnecessary. I trust you" Noelle replied and Ariana spat her drink out.

"You trust her? Have you been brainwashed? Give it to me" Ariana said as she snatched the contract from Noelle. After reading through she handed it back to Noelle.

"You see, you have no reason to fear. I would not do anything to hurt Noelle."

"You better not, because if you do I will hunt you down" Ariana threatened

"See, I know you don't hate me" Noelle said with a smile

"Shut up fool, I hate you" Ariana said and walked to her room. That made Grace and Noelle laugh. They burst out laughing.

"Just sign here" Grace said pointing to the blank space at the end of the contract. Noelle signed the contract and was drinking water so she missed the smirk on Grace's face.

"Thank you so much for this, you have no idea how much this for me" Grace said when Noelle turned to face her.

"No, thank you for this opportunity. I will try my best to make this a success"

"Write your account number here, I will wire the money to your account. We will go shopping tomorrow, we need to prep you for the mission, to change you into a woman Luca Amante would fall in love with." Grace said with a smile.

"Okay, the contract comes with free clothes? I love my life" Noelle joked "goodnight, I have to go to bed now." She yawned.

"Good night, early to bed, early to rise." Grace replied.

Noelle was about to walked out the door when Grace stopped her.

"Oh, I almost forgot. You will have to quit your job. Luca would never look at waitress, talk less of falling for her"

"I have always hated that job." Noelle joked and closed the door behind her.

When she got into her apartment, she went directly to bed. She did not bother eating. She was too excited to even think about eating. She forced herself to sleep because she wanted to wake up early the next day.

The next morning when she woke up she jumped off the bed, thinking she was late for work.

"Oh no, oh no. Now Mr Brennan is going to kill me." She said as she was brushing then she remembered that she would have to quit her job today.

"I am a freaking millionaire. I don't need that horrible job anymore. Fuck Mr Brennan." She said to herself with a smile.

She freshened up and went into her kitchen. She opened the fridge to find something to eat but there was nothing there except few cans of beer.

"Noelle, you need to get your life together. This is horrible. Mom and dad would be so disgusted." She said to herself.

"Oh look, I still have few slices of bread." She jumped. She grabbed a can of beer from the fridge and she took the bread to the living room.

She switched on the tv and skipped a few stations till she found a movie.

"Urggh, it has been so long." She said as she opened her fourth can of beer.

Her door opened and Grace walked in.

"What is this? What is going on here? Why the hell are you drinking this early?" Grace screamed

"Are you a drunkard? What have I gotten myself into? Grace asked glaring at Noelle.

Noelle on the other hand was shocked to see her, she tried to hide the cans of beer but it only made it worse so she gave up. So she belched and stared at Grace.
