Double Update <3

As I walked along the sidewalk and down the twisty road, I had the sense that I was being watched. I'm sure it''s normal for people in these parts to be interested in a new person walking through.

I picked up my pace the further I walked. Eventually, I was out of the bad parts. It wasn't as bad as I had thought. I stared at my phone the majority of the time while I walked to the café. I felt better once I was in a part of the city that I recognized.

I walked into the café, making my way to the back of the shop to clock in. I passed Trey's office, seeing that he was asleep with his head resting on his desk. Weirdo.

I took my place behind the register and leaned on the counter. At this point, why not just open the café during the day instead of trying to make it a twenty four hour thing? If you ask me, Trey is horrible at running a business.

The rest of the evening went on without interest. I was reading on my phone when I heard the doorbell ding. I looked up to see who had entered. It was the creepy guy. Of fucking course it's him! As if my day couldn't get any worse!

I stood straight, trying to make myself appear strong, but I don't think it was working. This man was taller and stronger; he'd never be intimidated by someone like me.

He smiled at me while he watched my sad attempt. "Coffee, please. The same as I always get it." He stated, handing me a five dollar bill. "Keep the change."

I started on his drink, and like always, he watched. I was facing away from him, brewing the coffee. I turned around to add the cream and sugar, which for some reason wasn't beside the coffee maker like it should've been.

As I turned around, the man was standing right by the cream and sugar, staring at me with a nightmarish grin. I jumped when I saw him, I didn't expect him to be right there. I spilled some of the steaming hot drink onto my hand, causing me to drop the cup.

"Shit!" The disposable cup clattered on the floor, spilling all of its contents. Some of the liquid fell onto my shoes, which seeped into my socks and onto my feet. Fuck, it all burned. "Ah!" I winced.

I fell to my knees, grabbing a rag and sopping up all of the still burning liquid. "I-I'm sorry, Sir! I'll make you a new one right away!" I stammered.

Mr. Creepy didn't say a word while I cleaned up the mess. I tossed the rag to the side so I could make him a new cup of coffee.

I popped up from the ground and started remaking the coffee. This time, when I turned around, the man was sitting at one of the tables, watching me from afar. I finished his drink and carried it to him.

"I'm sorry for the inconvenience, sir. You can choose any pastry you'd like, on the house, of course!" I wavered with a smile.

"No thanks." He said, taking his drink from my hands. Shit, I didn't want to make him mad. He's creepy enough as it is! I don't need him to be angry with me!

Thankfully, I had Trey here. So, if this man tries anything, I'll have Trey with me. I never thought I'd be happy about Trey's presence. Ever since he got physical with me, I was glad to be far away from him.

This horrific customer overrides any dislike I had for Trey. Now, if only Trey were actually awake.

"Is your boss or manager here?" The man asked.

"Y-Yes, Sir."

"Where?" He asked. I looked toward the back of the building, where Trey's office was.

"Maybe the bathroom?" I questioned.
