The next day, Alina heads to work bright and early, ready to see what the day had in store
It was a normal day, filled
with regulars, and generous tips
Having a conversation with Harry when
once again the gentlemen from the day
before made their way into the café,
except this time their group was down
to three.
It once again ran quiet, as they
made their way to the furthest table.
Alina excused herself from her previous
conversation, and made my way to Sam.
Sam
hey
Sam smiles at Alina
Sam
Hey, you mind taking their orders for me, I have a few arrangements to take care of.
Alina
Oh, no, Sam , no, you know I'm
comfortable with regulars.
Alina
I don't know these people, and you're sending me to take their orders.
Sam
You'll be fine, just introduce yourself, like you've done a million times, and simply ask if they would like anything
Alina
So you're sending me to make a fool of myself?
Sam
Do this for me, and a fresh batch of oatmeal raisin cookies will be waiting without limits.
Alina
Oh you are a bad person. You don't play fair.
alina pulled out her mini
notepad.
Sam
Make me proud.
Sam slightly shoved Alina in the direction of their table.
She takes a deep breath and started her way towards their table
The second she arrived, the owner of the dark blue eyes looked up at her. His face cold, unfriendly.
Gulped as she felt her shyness take over, my face felt hot, and her mouth felt dry. she cleared her throat and opened her mouth.
Alina
H-hello. My n-name is Alina, and I- I will be your waitress this afternoon. May I um ask what you would li-like to drink?
Barely managing to stop herself from
closing her eyes, and making a grimace at her stutter.
