Kapitel 18: Germani Industries
"Oh crap!" I semi screamed out while collecting up all my school materials off the floor of my car. I had a horrible day yesterday with Myers not showing up on our date and now this it must be "make Quinn unhappy" week. What did I ever do wrong I go to work, do all my schoolwork and help out at the local soup kitchen on Sundays, now how universe could you hate someone like that?
Locking my door and slinging my backpack over my shoulders I glide past a couple of talking students and make my way towards the gym.
Today me and my economics class are taking a field trip to big business company in San Francisco called Germani Industries. Apparently, this company is like the biggest in the United States and it's worth over a million dollars. Our teacher wants us to see how a big company works and hopefully pick up a few tips in case we ever want to start a business. I was contemplating staying at home, but this is such a big part of my final grade I could not miss it.
Entering into the gym all I hear is chatter and the groans of kids who obviously don't want to be here. In the distance I see my economic teacher, Mr. Banhammer, handing out wrist bands and work sheets to students. In the corner of the gym I see Lyra laying on the bench with a blanket and her backpack as a pillow. Leave it to Lyra to figure out a place to sleep. We had to get here an hour earlier than when school started because it's an hour drive from St. Helena to San Francisco. Lyra has never been a morning person as we can see. Arriving to her I lean down close to her face and see a string of drool hanging from the corner of her mouth. I chuckle slightly and shake her awake. She gilts up like a scared horse and looks around for the culprit, when she looks up, she sees me she rolls her eyes and wipes the drool from her mouth.
"Quinn if you ever do that again I'm going to kill you...murder style." She grumbles while sitting up on the bench.
"Oh, don't be so dramatic Lyra." I say pushing her over so I can sit down next to her.
"You know this is a school and not your bedroom?" I tell her.
"Look I would have slept in the bathroom if I got there first." Lyra said wiping her eyes. She goes on to say, "Oh gosh I never asked how was your date with Myers?"
Oh, she just had to ask that. The question that I was dreading since this morning. How embarrassing to dress up all cute do your hair and drive out of your way for a date. The most important thing about a date is that two people show up in this case only one person showed up. That has to be the most humiliating days of my life.
"He uh... he didn't show up." I sadly say while looking off in the distance.
"Wait... WHAT he didn't show up what a scum bag you want me to get Jack to beat him up you know he'll do it." She says pulling her phone out of her pocket. I put my hand on top of hers and shake my head and tell her it's alright.
"No, I just don't even want to talk about it or talk to him. The whole thing makes me angry I'm a good person you know what did I do to deserve this?" I tell her.
"Well, I can't answer that question for you, but I can tell you this it gets better." She said.
I lean her in closer to me and tell her thank you. Guys may not be there for you, but girlfriends will always have your back no matter what. Our teacher starts to walk in the middle of the gym ready to make an announcement.
"Ok guys the busses are ready to board. Collect your belongings and find your buddy. Once everyone is in order, I will start bringing kids to the bus." Mr. Banhammer said walking away towards the busses.
I hope this trip is fun. The last trip we took it was highly boring. Mr. Banhammer took us to the soda company to see how much soda is produced in a year. All I remember is loud machinery and buckets of soda. To this day I can't bring myself to drink it. Everyone starts to head towards the busses, me and Lyra follow behind the crowd.
1 hour later...
We pull into the Germani Industries parking lot and the pictures don't do this business justice. It's a high-rise building with rectangular windows that are as clear as water. On the top of the building in big letters it spells out "Germani Industries: A family business". I didn't know that Mr. Germani had children. The bus comes to a halt and everyone starts to grab their belongings. I try to move my body but am held in place by a weight on my shoulder. I turn my head to the right and see Lyra's head laying on my shoulder. Lord she sleeps everywhere. This bus could be on fire and she would sleep through it, insane. I gently shake her awake and tell her that we have arrived.
"Everyone please enter off the bus in a single file line. Make sure you have your materials all your bags and such can be left on the bus. The driver will make sure the doors are locked and secured." He said.
We wait for the people in front of us to leave their seats, then me and Lyra followed behind them. Leaving on the last step of the bus I stretch out my limbs and cracked my knuckles. There is nothing like being cramped on a bus for an hour especially sitting next to Lyra, it's torture.
"What did I say you all single file line!" Mr. Banhammer screams out at us. We all grab our buddies and get in line. "We will enter through these back doors and be greeted by Mr. Germani's Vice President of the company, Greta Germani. She will explain to us about her job and some minor history of the company. After that we will be taken up to the top floor where Mr. Germani, his son and other co-workers are. Students we are guest at this place be on your best behavior."
"Yes Mr. Banhammer." We all said in unison. He nods at us and leads us to the door. We were greeted by a red headed woman. She had to be around 5ft 3 inches, hair pinned up with a black clip, freckles surround her face and she's wearing a light grey pants suit. She's very beautiful.
