I exhaled softly through my nose and silently placed the sweet tea to my lips.

The three men had taken it upon themselves to accompany me to a seat in the surprisingly prestige cafe, I had assumed because of their clothing they were slightly poor as they had been wearing the same clothes for days.

Not that I could judge much, I probably looked like a mess.

I felt a sudden sharp pain in my heart and grasped it, breathing eratically.

"Ah-are you oka-okay?"

Exclaimed a worried voice, I could feel his twitching body shift closer to me. Toby had insisted he sat next to me in the cafe as both seats could only hold 2 people which made Tim extremely agitated and he argued with Toby to sit beside me.

Brian had also seem disappointed at the predicament but decided to remain silent, he could see I was starting to become uncomfortable at the discord and reprimanded them.

Shutting people up seemed to be his speciality as they both obeyed but the annoyance and slight anger radiating off of them was evidence enough that they were not pleased.

I spluttered out my tea in my coughing fit as Toby slapped my back gently, hoping it would put me at ease.

Surprisingly, it did seem to work as I felt myself calm down and apologetically looked at them, I was afraid my loud coughing fit may have embarassed them but to my relief, they seemed perfectly okay.

Happy even. Brians face had a tinge of red to it as it he cheekily stuck his hand out and wiped my chin that was covered in the teas residue.

I thanked him awkwardly and his smile grew into a smug smirk,seemingly happy with my manners.

They all started talking again,occasionally asking me questiolithat consisted of what time I came to work or when I got off. They addressed me by my name which I was a bit unnerved by until they assured me they only knew because of the name tag my work required me to wear.

Still suspicious.

I casually checked the time which read 12am and finished up the rest of my sweet tea.

Excluding the strange men, today was starting off great. Until I received a notification.

Insh(manager):

                                                             (Y/N)
                     Not really. U need anythin?

Insh(manager):
Welllll it may sour your mood a bit. Juustt a bit.

Her totally non suspicious words made me ponder. What favour would she want now?

                         
                                                              (Y/N)
                                                      Go onnn

Insh(manager):

Hmm. I did need the extra money if I wanted to continue living comfortably and whats one more hour of work?

Brian seemed to pick up on my hesitance and asked:
