LISA

The ticking clock was the only thing I was focused on right now. I just wanted to get out of here and go home. I've been working in this café for six hours today and I just want to lie in my bed. All day I had to deal with rude customers and treat them like royalty. And I have the temperament of my dad and also that of my mom. It's really difficult to keep my mouth shut and stay nice to the customers. They don't deserve it at all.

Since there had already been a few incidents where customers had complained about my behavior, my boss threatened to fire me. Now all that was left was to just shut up and let yourself be treated like a piece of trash.

Since it was almost midnight, the store was completely empty. My boss had already left and no more customers came into the café at that time. There was no one in this little shop but me.

I was just about to go back to change when, of course, the door opened and made me stop. I looked at the door from the counter and recognized a man. He slowly entered the shop and looked around calmly. Then his eyes slid to me and I could see him smiling at me.

"We're closing now, sir. I'm sorry." I said and looked at the man in a friendly way but he didn't seem to turn back and just continued to walk towards me at the counter.

"You don't close for another five minutes. I could have a coffee." He said, making me scream out loud inside but I kept my smile and then nodded my head in agreement.

"How would you like your coffee?" I asked him while he sat down. It was obvious that something was wrong with him, but I quickly put these thoughts in the back drawer. I don't want to judge a person because of his condemn appearance.

"Completely black, sweetie." He said, stroking his beard. But unfortunately his eyes no longer stayed on mine, but of course slowly slid down my body and since I had a short and tight dress as a uniform, this pedo of course had a perfect view of my curves and legs.

Before I insult his entire generation I quickly pulled myself together and then got to work on the coffee machine. And while I was making his coffee, of course I felt his eyes on me and my ass the whole time.

"Do you work here every day during this time?" He then asked me while I put his coffee on the counter in front of him.

"I'm sorry but I must ask you to drink it quickly, I have to close soon." I said, ignoring his stupid question. I noticed how disgustingly he grinned at me and then nodded his head. Just as I was about to walk back to the staff room, I heard a loud crash. Startled I turned around again, and I could see how he looked at me with his eyes wide open.

"I dropped my glass." He said in mock sadness, although I would ideally slam him against the nearest wall.

"No problem. I'll make you a new one." I said and was about to run behind the counter again.

"Sweetie, you better clean this up quickly before you make me a new one. I would like to drink my coffee in a clean condition." He asked me, whereby I looked at him in horror.

"I'll clean it up later-" I said, but was quickly interrupted by him again.

"I don't think your boss would be happy about that." He threatened me coldly and looked at me in such a provocative way. I angrily clenched my hands into fists and tried to ignite my anger. All hell broke loose inside me while I then picked up a wet cloth and ran to him in front of the counter.

I have to pull myself together if I don't want to get fired. After all, I have to earn money for college somehow and I can't afford to quit right now. 

"As you wish." I said with a sigh, while the bastard then smiled. 

I slowly knelt down to the broken pieces and the coffee that was now spread on the floor and tried to clean up as quickly as possible. Of course, I ignored his disgusting looks at me. I wanted to throw up on him and say what a shitty pedo he was, but I pulled myself together.
