'beep beep beep!' The sound of your alarm slowly woke you up. You made your way to your closet picking up your uniform before going to the bathroom to take a shower, you opened the cold/warm water before undressing and stepping in.

Getting your hair ready was the most difficult part of your morning routine. Your hair practically consisted of hairspray but that's what the 80's had to offer.

Your shoes clacked beneath you as you walked to the restaurant. The bright lights from the restaurant sign could start to be seen, you started to walk faster, soon enough you got there. You saw a tall figure next to the restaurant's door, it was William, he was listening to music on his Walkman as he took some drags from his cigarette. He seemed to be stressed about something, you were unsure if that was the case or if that was his resting face. William moved his head and slightly jumped as he didn't have noticed your presence, before giving you a small smile and taking off his headphones. "Quite cloudy ain't it?" He took a small glance at the sky, you hadn't noticed before but it was really cloudy. "It is." You smiled back. "What are you listening to?" You asked as he keept smoking, the cigarette slowly consuming. "The rolling stones." He said as if he didn't want to give it too much attention, but you knew that wasn't true, Henry has told you a lot of times how passionate Mr. Afton was about music. "You've got a really good Music taste Will." A genuine smiled placed on his face when he heard you say that. "Aren't you a bit early darling? It's only 5:40." He tilted his head slightly. I guess you hadn't noticed, maybe it was your fear of being late that made you arrive early, after all you were pretty sensitive about the topic, everyone in your teen years would yell and get angry at you for supposedly being late always, which made you develop the habit of being extremely early. "I guess I am." You looked down before speaking again. "Umm... Will..." He turned his attention to you and you did as well. "You seemed worried about something, do you want to talk about it?" You made eye contact with him before he turned his head. "It's nothing Dear, you shouldn't worry about it, you don't even know me that much." He took a drag of his cig. "Just tell me sir, maybe it would make you feel better." You offered the tall man. He seemed to think about it for a moment before giving in. "Well... I've recently found out that my wife, now ex wife was cheating on me and that two of my kids aren't even mine." He sighed. It was weird, his eyes looked like he was about to cry but not a single tear got out of his eye. All you knew to do was to hug him, at first when you did he just stayed still in shock, unsure of what to do, but soon enough he returned the hug. "Well I guess that explains why Mike has always looked so much like me." He chuckled a bit trying to get a bit of tension off from the situation. "If you don't mind me.." You started. "Who's Mike?" He looked at you but his eyes weren't exactly looking at anything, it's like they were starting into space. "He's my oldest, he's a real trouble maker." A small smile appeared on his face thinking about it. " I was exactly like he is when I was 16." He threw the finish cigarette on the ground, stomping it with the point of his shoe. "He sounds like a great kid." You were a bit cold because of the weather and because the uniform had short sleeves. "Whatever, let's get inside, it's time and I need to get back to my work." He turned back to being serious. <<Wow this guy really has no defined emotions.>> You thought before entering the restaurant with him. He went to his office and you started preparing the place while other workers clocked in. workers had to always prepare the place apart from doing their actual work.

You heard someone stomp over to where you are. "Sorry to bother you darling but Henry wants you to take care of his spoiled bra- I mean..." He tried to calm himself down before continuing. "Of charlie." He said irritated. You looked at him surprised. "What!? I'm terrible with children!" You tried to explain to him. "Not my problem dear." He walked to the parts and service room, which only meant two things, something was broken or soon Bon Bun was going to storm out of that room. Before you even had a chance to get up to search for the girl she tumbled into you. "Sorry Mr/Miss y/n I didn't see you there." The nine year old green eyed girl looked up at you. "It's okey Charlie." you messed her hair up. "Hey don't do that, I just brushed it!" She yelled annoyed. You laughed at her face. "Fine fine, sorry, now how about we go play some games?" You took out small rounded plastic pieces from your pocket. "I have five tokens!" The little girl when she heard that she dragged you to the arcades so you would play with her.

You got out of the bathroom after taking a small break from following the girl around, you had told her to wait for you outside the bathroom but when you looked out she wasn't there anymore. "Charlie? Charlie!?" You yelled for her paranoid. <<Henry's going to kill me...>> You started to search for her everywhere, but no matter how hard you tired it was imposible to find her, in a desperate attempt you started asking everyone. "Hey miss, have you seen a brunette green eyed small girl?" Your voice was shaky and unsteady. "No, sorry." The woman replied not really caring.

Your shift had ended a while ago and you couldn't find her. When you got outside there was raining.  "Need a ride?" You heard from the shadow of a person leaning on their car while smoking a cigar. "Yeah.. this storm is terrible." You walked closer, covering your hair with your hand. "It truly is, huh?" Afton threw the now consumed cigar to the ground stomping on it. "Get in." He entered the drivers seat. He looked messed up but weirdly calm, way too calm...
