After everything that happened in the employee's room, I came out to the counter to get the tray with one of the orders.

I looked at the table number that was on a small piece of paper and later walked toward table 3.

When I came up to the table I saw a group of older men chatting.

"Two sour, tart, and funky, one American Amber Ale and one California Common. And that was all.

"Thank you for visiting Wonwoo beer and book, the best beers and books in town."

I said with a smile and bowed towards the men as they returned one.

I turned around and was about to go back with the tray to go get the next orders when one of the men stopped me.

"Excuse me, young lady, my wife wanted me to come back with a book. Will you be so kind as to recommend me one?"

"What type of genre does your wife like?"

"Oh, she likes all romantic and historical books."

He answered as I thought for a moment before I came up with a book that I've read that fits his description.

"Well, I have one which is a dark romantic story set in the Joseon era. Ever heard of Promise season, by Lee Evie?"

"I have heard about the author before but never the book."

Another man by their table said with a smile as the rest of them were listening to the conversation.

"What is it about?"

"It's about a gisaeng slave girl who hides a fugitive in her bed, unexpectedly saving the life of a young man who is not all he seems," I explained as the man seemed interested.

"Seems like a book your wife would love, Gary." One of the man's friends said as the rest agreed.

"How much do you take for it?"

"If you have the membership you can borrow it for free for 4 weeks, but if it isn't returned by then you'll have to pay the late submission payment that is around 11681 won (10 dollars)."

"Or you can just buy the book for 3703 won (3.17 dollars) and the book will be all yours."

I answered as Gary thought for a while before giving me an answer.

"Just put it on my paycheck."

He answered as I nodded and brought up the notebook with all the different regular paychecks.

"You are a regular right?" I asked as he nodded.

"Can get your full name please."

"Gary Wang." He answered with a smile as I wrote on his paycheck.

I walked toward one of the bookshelves and took out the requested book and handed it to the man.

I later said thank you and bowed before starting to walk back toward the counter.

When I walked back I put my tray on the counter as Wonwoo finished the beers and put two on my tray,

"Table 2," Wonwoo said with a smile as I nodded and walked towards the table.

When I came up to the table I was shocked by the people sitting by it.

I walked closer and put the tray down on their table catching the two boys' attention.

Both of them looked up at me with smiles as returned one.

"Two ginger beers without alcohol"

I said and put the two small bottles of beer and two beer glasses on the table in front of them.
