"How long on those steaks Kang? I have five customers in this big party complaining!"
Junmyeon exclaimed at the kitchen manager in irritation.
"I can only go as fast as the cooks go Kim! It's busy this morning so we're slammed!"
He sighs and rolls his eyes,
"Can I at least get an ETA?"
"It'll be five minutes gorgeous!"
one of the cooks calls out to him, winking at the server.
"Thank you love!"
Junmyeon smiles at him, walking out the kitchen with drinks.
He delivers the drinks and bread to his favorite regulars.
"Sounds like you're having a rough time dear,"
Mrs. Shin chuckles lightly.
"You heard that? I'm so sorry. I got stuck with another big party just before you got here,"
he bows in apology.
"Don't be sorry son. We could've sat with someone else if we had known you were busy,"
Mr. Shin pipes up.
Junmyeon shakes his head,
"Oh that'll never be necessary Mr. Shin. I'm always happy to have you both in my section no matter how busy I am."
"We'll only if it's not a problem."
"Never. As long as it's not a problem that I may not get to you quickly."
"Take your time dear. I hope this party isn't like the one from the other week,"
Mrs. Shin says, concerned.
"Nope, but they are challenging. Are you having your usual lunch specials today?"
The elderly couple nod with bright smiles. Junmyeon returns the smile and inputs their order into the nearby computer.
"I see everyone now has food. Did they cook your steaks properly gentlemen?"
He asks the party in the separate room.
"It's excellent. Thank you,"
one male answers.
"May we get refills please?"
"Of course!"
He smiles, doing just that.
Once they're taken care of, he goes to the host stand and looks at the filled lobby.
"Damn we're busy. Why are you up here?"
He asks Xiumin.
