Time skip
Few weeks later

Cosmo's POV
Another day at work I... think... I guess...? Probably it's a normal shift just like from last weeks nothing special, basically Sprout and I talking during break time and until... Uh oh... it's S-Shrimpo. During afternoon I was chilling and waiting for the next costumer, but suddenly... Shrimpo entered the diner. He's always complaining (just like pathetic "male Karen") about us, food, etc. Basically he's hates everything, sometimes he visiting the diner, like c'mon just don't enter again.

- That time Cosmo encountered Shrimpo -

"Oh, here we go again..."
"I HATE THIS PLACE!!!" Shrimpo yelled at me.
"Eh... Then don't come here anyway." I answered
"I DON'T GIVE A SHIT, I HATE MENU!!!" he still trash talking. Eventually... he won't leave the diner and start throwing tantrums and keep talks shit, I decide to tell Sprout about this, and he will confronting him.
"Hey, could you please calm down...? This place is not for beefing."
"No."
"I'll count down to 10 if you not leaving us alone, or else... Hm?" and then i awkwardly standing while Sprout slowly counting to 10 while Shrimpo still throw another tantrum, around 7 counts later he immediately left. Phew... What a relief... Thanks Sprout my friend...

During evening outside the diner kitchen, I was to go back to my room but Sprout ask me something...
"Hey... You don't need to worry about that it happened sometimes, you can ask me if there's any problem just like this earlier,
I'll always be there for you."

"Ah, okay Sprout"

"Oh wait a minute one question."

"Oh sure, I don't mind it, hehe."

"So, can I call you Cos for short or... nickname if that's okay for you...? It's fine if you don't want to."

"... Sure, some of my friends from my old college that I graduated called that nickname before, hehe, I won't mind that!"

"I'm glad you alright with this, so uh that's it I have to go now, goodbye friend!"

"Oh alright bye Sprout!"

Then I go back to my room and I need a rest after dealing with Shrimpo, what a pathetic...
