Remember

30. Waitress.

There she goes - Taio Cruz (feat. Pitbull)

************************************

"What do you want now Britney?" I rolled my eyes.

"You're leaving already?" she said innocently.

"Yes. I've seen enough of you for today." I stated bluntly.

"Babes, you can never get enough of me!" she smirked. "Anyways, regarding your bill-"

"Just send a cheque to the deli," Jenny suggested.

"Well, there's a small problem regarding that.."

"What do you mean?" I glared at her. I'm sure she's doing all these deliberately.

"Actually, my waiters are stuck in an awful traffic jam so I've no one to serve the food you guys brought," she explained dramatically. Oh oh.. I think I know where this is going.

"Okay.. we're sorry about it?" Jenny and I both looked at her confusedly.

"That means that you'll have to be the waitresses!" she concluded.

"NO FREAKING WAY," we both yelled at the same time.

"It's either this or I don't pay you," Britney added calmly. She can't be bloody serious!

"But our work was only to deliver the food!" I argued.

"Abbs darling, I'll pay you only after my party is a success, whether you like it or not! And for that, you'll have to be a waiter," she snapped.

"You can't do that!"

"I can do whatever I want."

"I.. we.. we'll sue you!"

"Hiring a lawyer will be much more expensive than wearing dolphin costumes."

"What dolphin costumes?"

"My waiters are supposed to dress up as dolphins. There's the changing room and behind you is the door. You decide," she said before walking away victoriously. That chick is an insult to even bitches!

"What do we do now?" I asked, facing Jenny.

"I don't know.. What if she really doesn't pay us?"

"So you're considering walking around with a ridiculous dolphin costume and a plate of food among half of the school population?" I could already feel my anger boiling.

"This money is really important Abby. Ellie's Deli doesn't get such orders everyday and you already know about its financial position. What will I tell my mom if I go back without the money? I don't really have a choice..."

"You mean 'we' don't really have a choice," I said, acknowledging her emotional blackmailing skills.

"You're the best friend in the whole universe!" she grinned lovingly.

"Stop with the flattery and let's dress up now or else her majesty Britney will order to chop off my neck!" I tried to cheer her up. A dolphin costume can't be that bad.. I'm pretty sure it will cover most of our faces...

***

I won't ever trust my inner conscious ever again! That stupid outfit covers every part of our bodies except our faces. Not to mention that the costume is way too heavy with its dangling tail and oversized mouth resting on my head. Oh, and let's not forget our dearest Britney's courtesy: rollers. That's right. Imagine two giant dolphins, rolling around a pool with a plate of food.. Funny sight, right? Well, it wasn't funny at all for me.
