TWO WEEKS LATER
"I'm going." I shouted to the family as they were all sat on the sofa
"Good luck beautiful." Fiona replied smiling
"I'm so nervous." I told Carl
"Don't be, you smashed your last job." He kissed me "I love you."
"I love you to." I kissed him back
2 weeks ago, once i came out the hospital my parole officer had to get me a job because i couldn't find my own. He luckily got me in as a barista at starbucks but i was so nervous
I hadn't worked anywhere since Martha fired me and i certainly wasn't in the right mental place to get a job at the time
I was doing so much better now, they had upped my medication and i haven't had a bad episode in about a week.
I was finally recovering
I finally walked out the door, after much hesitation to nobody's surprise. They knew today would be a very stressful day for me
especially working 9-5 at a coffee shop that is a big brand. I can't mess up today
It wasn't a long walk at all, around 10 minutes up the street. I was quite surprised there was even a Starbucks in the south side considering the drinks are way to expensive
As i walked in it was really busy, which shocked me even more. Since when could the south side afford to come here? We could barley afford bread
"Hello i'm Rory Gallagher i'm here for the job." I said as i walked over to the manager and shook her hand
"Hello Rory, welcome to starbucks. This is ellie." She pointed to a young girl "She will be your tour guide. If you show up on the job drunk your sacked, if you show up high your sacked."
"Okay got it."
"Please put your stuff in a locker."
"I noticed that you have bipolar is that correct? she quiestioned which made me panic
"Yeah i have, but if i come to work acting wierd please just send me home. Don't fire me." I begged
"Oh honey we won't fire you here." She smiled "Did your last place fire you over it?"
"Yeah they did."
"Legally there not aloud to do that unless you do something wrong." She walked over to the counter "You will be a cashier for an hour then swap and make drink."
"Okay got it."
"Break is at 11:30 and you get another at 3:20." She smiled "Good Luck Honey."
"Thank you so much."
"Hey i'm ellie." The girl walked over and smiled
"Hey ell, I'm Rory." I smiled back at her
"You worked in a coffee shop before?"
"Yeah it was called jadore, they fired me for being bipolar." I laughed even if it wasn't funny
"Assholes, don't worry we won't treat you differently here." She hugged me "Come on there is customers."
I walked up to the Till and took my first order of the day. "Hello welcome to starbucks, what can i get for you?"
"Can i have a large vanilla latte please and a Cold brew with caramel foam." The customer asked
"Yes you can, that will be 7.50 please." I smiled
She handed me a $10 note "Keep the change."
"Thank you, your order will be with you shortly. Can i take a name for that please?"
"Sandy."
"I love that name." I smiled
"Thank you." Sandy laughed
"Please wait round the side." I pointed round the corner
"Tar Love."
"Ell i need a Cold brew with Caramel Foam and à Vanilla Latte." I asked her politely
"Coming right up."
The rest of the day ran pretty smoothly with the occasional 'why is it so expensive' or 'Can i just get a free one'
When it finally got to five i took my apron off and went to the lockers i took my last dose of medication and grabbed my bags
"You did really well." Ellie told me
"Thank you." I smiled at her
"After every shift most of us go to the bar, want to come?" She offered
"My brother is waiting outside, i will next time though."
"No worried, have a good night." She hugged me
"You to."

"So how was work." Ian asked me"It actually went amazing, they asked me if i was bipolar and said it was perfectly fine. I served so many people." I proudly replied
"I'm so proud of you, we have KFC at home waiting for you." Mickey told me
"Thank fuck for that i'm starving." I laughed "Frank better not of ate it all, might be my next victim if he has."
"Aurora." Ian laughed
"See this is how i know your my sibling." Mickey laughed aswell
"I'm just the better milkovich-gallagher."
"Technically your a gallagher by the law." Ian pointed out
"Nah she's a milkovich by blood." Mickey argued
"I'm a mix of both okay?" I told them
"Fine." Mickey rolled his eyes jokingly "You win."
"I always do." I said as i walked up the steps to the front door
"How was work." Carl instantly asked me as soon i walked through the house
"Bloody hell Carl." I jumped "It was amazing."
"See i told you, nothing to be nervous about." He looked at me wierdly
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"no reason."
"Carl?" I looked at him as i walked into the kitchen
"Hey Littlest Milkovich." Mandy smiled
"Gallagher now." I laughed as i ran over and hugged her "I missed you."
"Surprised you didn't remember me." Another voice called out
It was the girl from the coffee shop
"I'm your cousin Sandy." Sandy told me
"Oh shit, how didn't i click." I gasped
"So how have you been? This your boyfriend." Mandy looked over at Carl
"Yeah it is, it's been a crazy few years." I said "What are you doing here."
"We are staying here for a few months and the leaving for a bit, We wouldn't miss Ian's and Micks wedding. I've been waiting for this since we were 15."
"Gosh a whole 4 years." I rolled my eyes "Crazy."
"Shut up." She ruffled my hair "I missed you."
"I missed you to." I smiled "You proud of me for going to prison."
"So proud, well done for doing the deed for us." Mandy joked
"I'm just a hero."
