Today was a Saturday which meant I had a shift at Dwayne's. I was helping the cook flipping burgers.
The last days were calm. Oscar didn't bother me again. The reason for that was probably that I just left the house for school and work. And almost nobody had the number of my new phone, so nobody could call me.
I was sure Oscar would leave me in peace now.
But like usual, I spoke too soon.I went to the front to clear some tables and who I saw coming through the door? Oscar and his homies.
I wanted to rush to the back, but Dwayne walked in the way.
Dwayne: "Elly, I don't need you in the back today. You are working front."Elly: "I know, I just thought I could..."
Dwayne: "Could what?"
I sighed. Hide from my ex cause he's crazy.
Elly: "Nothing."Dwayne looked at me confused.
Dwayne: "Okay, then keep going. There are new costumers waiting."
He motioned at the table Oscar and his homies sat down a minute before.Of course...
I took four menus and trotted over to the table.With my most fake friendly voice, I greeted them.
Elly: "Hi, welcome to Dwayne's Joint BBQ. Here are the menus." I handed them over. "Can I get you something to drink already or you need more time?"Oscar: "We'll take four cokes."
I wrote down their order.Elly: "All right. I'll get them for you right away."
I turned around and went to the kitchen quickly. There I took a deep breath.
You'll be fine. You'll get through this day like you get through every other day. Just keep swimming.
I filled up four cokes and took them to Oscar's table. When everyone had their glass, I took out my paper and pen again.
Elly: "You had a chance to decide what you want to eat?"
They placed their orders and I took back the menus. When Oscar handed me his, our fingers brushed against each others.
The feeling went through my whole body and felt like an electric shock. I'm sure I blushed hard in that moment.
I went to the kitchen and told the cook the new orders. Till the food was ready I took the orders of two other tables.
When the cook shouted the number of Oscar's table, I picked the food up and carried it to their table.
Elly: "Here's your food. Enjoy. And just call for me in case you need something else."
I was about to turn around.
Oscar: "Actually, there is something I need."I would like to punch him in his stupid grinning face.
Elly: "Yeah? What is it?"Oscar: "Your new number."
Elly: "Sorry. Food services only."
Oscar: "Okay then, I would like to have a burger with a paper on top on which you write your new number."
I rolled my eyes.
Elly: "I'm sorry, we are not allowed to share personal information with customers."I turned around and rushed to the kitchen. Unfortunately the cook finished another order I needed to bring out front. Why can't I hide back here for 5 minutes?
I took the plates and went to another table. Two men were sitting there.
Elly: "Hi, here's your food. Enjoy."
I smiled at them.
