POV JAKE

I just got up and said hi to my mom. I ate bread and left the house. This morning I was late for work...
It's a very good restaurant, I mean an amazing restaurant. He has three stars and all is very luxurious..

- Where was you? You are late! The director yelled at me.
- I'm sorry it wouldn't happen again.
He left and I was here, doing anything. Then a guy came near to me.
- Hi, I'm Jungwon. No one are kind here so be careful.
- Hi, I'm Jake. What do you mean?
- Don't worry about the money, the director will pay you right because he has principles but you have to be careful, the other don't like when there is a new worker so they would do anything to make you fired.
- Ah... I see, but can I trust you?
- Yeah of course, if you need help don't hesitate.
Suddenly three people in a suit came near.
- So you are the newbie? One said to me, I nodded.
- Welcome here. They smiled.
After what Jungwon said to me it was more scary.. I just smiled and they left.
- Well, let's work! Jungwon said, tapped my shoulder.

After an hour, the clients started to come. Even if there was an hundred or two hundred people in this restaurant it was very calm. The restaurant was very big. It felt like it was a building, so amazing...

POV HEESEUNG

- Stop you! Where are you going? dad yelled at me.
- Um, going to have a walk, hehe.
He grabbed my arm and took me to my room. He pushed me on the bed.
- I booked in a luxurious restaurant for you and Georgia, I swear if you mess you are not going to see Jay for a long time! It's for lunch, get ready.
He left the room and slammed the door. I was about to laugh when I saw my mom getting into the room.
- Heeseung, please do what you father say. Even if you don't like her just be polite and we will find an other girl.
I looked at her and giggled.
- I don't want to get marry or have his business. I don't care about that. I just wanna be free, I'm still young!
- I know but if you want to do all you want later, you have to preserve your dad's money then when we will leave you could do anything you want. So please, just listen to him..
I sighed.
- I will think about it.
She got up and closed the door. She looked at me.
- Why?
- Do you remember about Jake? my mom said
I looked at her, confused.
- Yeah, why?
- It's just that I dreamt about you two last night.
She smiled.
- I thought you hated him, I said.
- I didn't, actually I thought that if he was a girl, maybe your father could accept him. He didn't think about the money you had even if his mother was sick, he did all he could to be with you, he have a pure heart.
- Wait, what? What do you mean?
- You didn't know? After you left your school, Jake came to our house. He was looking for you and ask me to tell to you that he loves you and he is sorry if he ruined your life. He even begged your dad to let you come back to school. But it was too late... and your father..
- What he did?
- He slapped him.
I got up.
- WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME? HE HAS NO RIGHTS TO TOUCH HIM!
She came closer and told me to sit, again.
- He was angry, but Jake wasn't. Jake just missed you... I was angry too. She said
- I was angry that Jake didn't defend himself. He just got up and thanked me. He left and said in front of your dad that he loves you and he hopes he could see you one day in New York. She explain.
I just looked at her and said nothing. How an human could be that mean with people? That's why I hate my dad and I hate myself. Because now, I look alike him. And I hate myself to be the son of a monster.

POV JAKE

The restaurant was full of people. The clients were very satisfied by my service and my advice. The director was happy to see the money they won but the other didn't stop to look at me with these angry eyes... Jungwon tapped my shoulder. It was 12:35pm. I was about to treating a client when the director called me.
- Since you are a success for the clients, so take a good care for this one. We are gonna be very rich with you. He giggled and told me to welcome them.
- Welcome, do you have a reservation?
- Yeah of course. Heeseung, 12:35.
I was frozen. Heeseung? I looked up and saw an handsome guy. I came back to my sense.
- Okay, come over here.
The handsome man and the girl installed them and I took them commands. His voice was very attractive.. his perfume as well.

After some time, I came back to them to give them the dishes. They looked satisfied.. he even smiled at me. It can't be that Heeseung, never. Then Jungwon called me.

POV HEESEUNG

A cute guy came to us and asked me if I had a reservation. When he was checking at his list, I saw his name's card. Jake.. is it that you? Impossible we are in New York... there is a lot of Jake. But... a lot of Jake can be that cute and have that Australian accent like him...? I came back to my sense and we followed him. I looked at the people. Everybody was looking at Georgia but when I look at her, I don't feel anything... I think that she is not pretty but every body can't stop saying that she look gorgeous and that I'm lucky. But I don't even care about her. I wanted to do what mom said but I can't, I can't be here and pretend that I feel good with her. He took our commands and came back after ten minutes to give us our dishes. I heard someone call his name. The way he answered... I feel like it's him... he doesn't even had changed.. I just tasted the dish. It was delicious. But Georgia started to speak with me I'm just uncomfortable. I was thinking about the person I was before and how Jake changed me but I'm here, with a girl I don't even care. I finish the food and looked at her.
- I'm done, let's stop. Enjoy the dessert.
I got up and went to pay the bill and added 100$. I looked at Jake and smiled. I thanked the director and left.

I will come here until you will remember about me.
