Today has been a very busy day, as usual for Grace. She was the only person that was in the Cafe, except for her two friends, to take orders for customers. Her two friends are Lisa and Olivia. Lisa has medium length light pink curly hair that's tied up in a high ponytail, and has yellow eyes. She was in the back making the food and drinks. While Olivia has short messy brown hair and brown eyes. She was in the back cleaning and sanitizing used plates, pots, and utensils.

"Grace! The order for table 5 is ready." Lisa yelled out, placing a cup of coffee on the counter.

"On it!" Grace replied. She grabbed the cup of coffee and walked up to the customer placing it gently on the table.

"I hope you enjoy it." Grace said with a smile, and went back to fill in more orders.

After the rush hour she walked to the break room. She let out a long sigh and wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead. She changed out of her uniform to a white sweater and some black leggings and sat on the sofa taking a quick sip of water. Olivia steps into the break room as well after washing the rest of the dishes and changing out of her uniform into a shirt and shorts. She leans against the wall checking her phone, but takes a few quick glances at Grace staring at the ceiling fiddling with the chain on her necklace.

"I know you always say you're fine, but are you really sure you're okay? Today has been a lot busier than usual and you had to handle all of it by yourself." Olivia said with concern. Grace brought her attention from the ceiling to her.

"Yeah it's not very good for your health, and don't you have another job to do after your shift also?" Lisa said coming into the break room as well sitting next to her wearing a purple short dress with white flower patterns all around it. She had three pieces of cheesecake with some tea and placed them on the table for them to eat.

Grace only chuckled at how concerned they were. They knew that she wanted to take many jobs to raise money to help her terribly sick Aunt. Although they found it very noble of Grace to help her, they were also very worried. They even wanted to help her out, but she didn't want to burden them.

"Don't worry guys, I'm fine. I'm a lot stronger than I look, you know. And I don't have to go to my next job after this one sadly." Grace replied. She stuck her fork into her slice of the delicate cheesecake and took a bite savoring the sweet taste. Lisa and Olivia looked at each other, both of their faces full of concern.

"We know, but because of all of the work you have you don't really spend time with us much." Lisa said.

Grace paused and put the fork back on her plate. "Yeah it would be nice to spend some time with you guys, but it'll all be worth it in the end. I promise."

"Alright whatever you say. But please know that we're always here for you. We may be friends but are like family to us." Olivia said, patting her shoulder.

"Thanks Mom." Grace said with a smile, rolling her eyes.

"Enough of the sad talk, let's finish our snack and clean up the Cafe before closing time." Lisa said, taking a bite of her cheesecake.

Grace and Olivia agreed and they spent the rest of their break chatting and eating delicious cheesecake and tea. Once their break was over they began cleaning up the tables and floors.

Outside there is a girl with long curly blonde hair, wearing shades that's covering her bright blue eyes and her face was covered in light makeup walking along the streets. She was wearing a slim sparkly red dress hugging her slim figure, exposing her chest area and silver high heels. Four other girls were walking with her, also wearing expensive clothing. They were on their phones chatting and taking pictures, posting them to the internet.
