Lucie is trying to do the best she can, but it's hard when everyone is waiting on you, and keeps asking over and over for they're order. "Ma'am, is my coffee done yet? It's been taking forever." A man asked Lucie, "sir, it has only been three minutes," Said Lucie, "a coffee should only take a second" the man said, "sir, we are under paid and we don't have a lot of workers." Lucie said with a sigh, "ma'am?" Said a little girl, "oh hello dear! Where are your parents?" Lucie said, "ma'am! I need my coffee!" The man keeps repeating the same thing, "sir I'm help a child I'm sure you can wait! Said Lucie, "they're over there!" Said the little girl as she pointed at two people, "hello!" Said Lucie, "hello, we're here to collect taxes." The parents said, "oh right this way!" Said Lucie, "ma'am! I'm sure my coffee is done by now." Said the man, "sir your going to have to wait." Said Lucie, "oh your here for the taxes already? You said we have until tomorrow right? Matt and Emma." Said Mario, "there was a change of plans." Said mat, "oh... but haven't made enough money to pay!" Mario said in a panicky voice, "fine, we will give you a day to pay, but don't be late again." Said Emma, "sir your coffee is done" Lucie said as she handed him his coffee, " Took you long enough" the man said as he drinks the coffee "it's way to hot! How could you serve this to me?!?" The man said as he spits the coffee out, "ahhh hot hot hot! you got your burning hot coffee on me!" Lucie yelled angrily, "go get me a new one!" The man yelled, "sir I was waiting for it to cool down but you kept asking over and over again for your coffee!" Lucie said as she walks into the kitchen to make him a new one, "ugh, I can't believe this" said Lucie as she makes a coffee, "Lucie I just want to thank you for all your help" Mario said, "you can have a day off tomorrow" said Mario, "oh thank you so much Mario!" Lucie said happily, "ma'am?" Said a woman, "yes?" Said Lucie, "I'm ready to order now" the woman said as she starts to give Lucie the menu, "ma'am your going to have to wait a little I just need to finish this coffee." Lucie said, "but I really want to try this!" The woman yelled, "ma'am I'm going to have to ask "you to lower your voice" Lucie said as she grabs the coffee, "here you go sir" Lucie said as she hands the man his coffee, "finally," the man said as he starts to drink, "now I need to clean myself." She says as she walks into the woman's restroom and bumps into a man, "oh my gosh I'm so sorry!" Lucie says, "oh it's nothing really, but hey you look stressed" he said, "well I don't just look it" Lucie said as she starts laughing, "try going on a relaxing cruise ship, one that I recommend is Tom's cruise. It's amazing, I'm going tonight, and this is my 5th time." The man says as he shows pictures of a ship, "wow looks great" Lucie said, "ma'am!" The woman yelled again, "I need to clean myself! I have hot burning coffee all over my dress!" Lucie yelled to the woman as she walks to the restroom, "finally I can get this burning stuff off of me" Lucie said as she washes it off her dress, "now how will I dry this" Lucie said as she looks around the room, "oh there!" Lucie said as she grabs a towel and drys herself, "ma'am! I need my food now!" The woman yelled, "okay okay okay! Coming!" Lucie said as she walks out and walks to her, "okay what do you want" Lucie said as she takes her menu, "I'll take the potato salad, no drinks, just the salad." the woman said, "are you sure? The potato salad is really dry." Lucie said, "yes I'm sure, no drinks, you got that?" the woman said "ma'am I'm done with my coffee!" The man yelled, "okay okay, coming" Lucie said as se walks over to him, "that will be 12.00$ and tips are appreciated" Lucie said as she picks up the empty cup, "alright, here" the man says as he hands Lucie 13.00$, "thank you sir. Have a good day" Lucie said as she puts away the money and walks over to the kitchen, "one potato salad, and no drinks" Lucie said as she puts away the menu, "no drinks? But it's dry" Mario said as he starts making the salad, "I told her that but she's saying that she doesn't want any drinks" Lucie said, "just at least ask her if she would like a free glass of water, oh and tell her it's spicy" Mario said, "okay" Lucie says as she walks to the woman with a glass of water, "hello, i just need to tell you that it's a very spicy and a lot of people we give it to say they can handle it, when they really can't" Lucie says as she puts down a glass of water, "I don't handle heat well, I'm going to need more then this" the woman said, "sure" Lucie said as she walks to get more water, "so?" Mario asked Lucie, "she said that she doesn't handle heat well, and that she's going to need a lot more" Lucie said as she grabs more glasses of water, "well it's done so here!" Mario said as he hands her the salad, "here you go ma'am, we are closing soon so eat up." Lucie said as she puts down the glasses of water and potato salad, "thank you" the woman says as she eats the potato salad fast, "done!" The woman said as she hands over the empty plates and glasses, "oh wow that was fast" Lucie said as she takes the empty plates and glasses, "but we are closed now so your toning to have to leave" Lucie said as she lead her out and starts to cleans the dishes, "so we meet again, eh? " A familiar voice said, "huh?" Lucie said surprised as she turned around, "oh it's you again! Although, I don't know your name since you never told me." Lucie said, "don't worry about my name or the dishes, I'll do the dishes so you can get home" the man as he does the dishes, "see" the man said, "oh woah, thank you so much!" Lucie said as she goes and looks to see the same little girl, "can I have a lollipop?" The little girl says, "sure but, what's your name little girl? And where are is your mommy and daddy?" Lucie asked the little girl as she hands her a lollipop, "my name is Rosa, and my mommy is at work and my daddy is at home, he's sleeping" Rosa said as she starts licking the lollipop, "do you know where your house is or where your mommy and daddy work?" Lucie asked Rosa, "that's my home! Right there!" Rosa said as she pointed at the house next door, "well I guess it's easy to get to!" Lucie says as she walks next door and knocks at the door, "hello?" Matt said, "hello I believe this is yours" Lucie said as she handed her over to him, "oh yeah thanks" Matt said, "now I need to get home I'm going to be late again," Lucie said as she rushed to the nearest train, "and I'm late I'll have to wait here until the next train." Lucie said as she sits down on a bench, "why hello again" a voice said, "oh it's just you" Lucie said, "I never got your name" the man said, "and I never got yours" Lucie said, "okay I'll tell you mine if you tell yours" the man said, "okay...deal!"
