"GERMANY" - Charming's new mechanic

~1~

- Welcome to Charming-

The big sign on the side of the road said as you drove past it on your motorcycle, feeling the warm californian wind on your skin. Just minutes later you slowed down and pulled into the parkinglot of a diner. You were starving, because you were on the road the entire day. After kicking down the stand of your bike and taking off your helmet, you let your fingers run through your long blonde hair to detangle it a bit. Your stomach rumbled as you dismount your bike and you quickly walked inside the diner, taking a seat at a booth at the far back. You sat down facing the entrance and parkinglot, you hate sitting with your back turned to the door. It's just an odd habit you always had. As soon as you took off your sweatshirt a waitress came to your table handing you a menue. "Anything to drink, darling?" she asked with a warm smile. "Just a coke, please." you said smiling back at her for a second before turning your attention towards the menue. Everything on it sounded fantastic and you had a hard time deciding what to choose. Once the waitress returned you finally decided on something and ordered it. "Be right back!" the brunette winked at you and hurried away. You took a sip of the ice cold coke and let your eyes wander through the diner.

Leaving Germany wasn't that hard for you. After a nasty breakup with your now ex-boyfriend, there wasn't a single thing holding you back. No family, no friends and being single at 25 after six years of a toxic relationship, you decided on a whole new start in a whole new country. For now you just had your bike, a 'honda rebel', and a backpack with clothes and other necessities with you. The few things that you called your own were still in Germany waiting to be shipped to you as soon as you found a place.

"Enjoy your meal!" the waitress put down a big plate of food in front of you, causing you to snap out of your thoughts. "Thanks!" you took the fork and started eating, closing your eyes after the first bite taking in the flavors of your first meal of the day. You shimmied a little, because it tasted so good. "Can get used to that." you thought, digging into the rest of the food. After you finished eating the waitress walked over to your table to get the empty plate. "Excuse me." you said grabbing her attention. "Do you know a motel in the area tha's not that shady?" you laughed a little. You were quite tough but you didn't feel like crashing at a nasty place though. The waitress put down your bill and nodded. "Yeah, just two blocks down this way and then turn left." she pointed down the  street. You thanked her and she left,leaving you supprised, becauuse you just wanted to hand her the money for the food. Putting your backpack on, you walked to the coounter with the bill and money in your hand, causing the brunette to look at you in amusement. "You're not from here, aren't you darling?" she somewhat questioned and stated at the same time. With a confused look you just shook your head. "Figured." she chuckled and explained that you leave the money on the table and the waitress gets it as soon as you leave. "Where you're from,darling?" she held her hand out for you to put the money in. "Germany." you explained giving her a quick smile.

After you left the diner you quickly found the motel, thanks to the directions the waitress gave you. It was decent and not tho shabby. After you got your room, you went out to get some groceries. Just as you wanted to leave the store a small poster caught your eye.

"Teller&Morrow"

You got your phone out to take a pic of the number, to call it as soon as you return to the motel. Back in Germany you worked as a mechanic too, so it was the perfect opportunity for you to quickly get a job here. Once all the groceries were put away you dialed the number from the poster and a woman, named Gemma, answered the call. She was quite nice and suggested you to come to "TM" the next morning, so she can show you around and if everything fits, both of you can settle the paperwork straight away. You agreed and said your goodbye looking at the clock on the wall. "7 pm. Time for a shower and then bed." you yawned talking to yourself. Being on the road almost all day and running errands drained you. Not long after your head hit the pillow you were fast asleep.
