I'm YN.. I'm a sever at a 5 star restaurant at a hotel. It maybe a rich restaurant but I still get paid shit. I'm doing everything i can to make my money. I also do nails as a side hustle. I'm doing the best i can. I wanna open a nail shop one day. It's been my dream ever since i was little.
"YN HURRY UP! We got tables that are in need of assistance!" My manager yells at me. "Yes ma'am." I rushed to the tables and took their order. "Coming right up!" I told them. As I walked to the kitchen I bumped into someone. "Ouch..." "HEY HEY HEY MOVE OUT THE WAY!!!" Bodyguards rushed in and pushed me out the way. "Fuck my cheek." I felt my left face. I looked up and seen that the Ball family arrived. "Hey girl get up!" My homegirl helps me. "Oh my goodness your cheek. Let's go in the back." She drags me to the back. "I don't think i want to keep working here anymore. I don't feel encouraged anymore." I looked at her. "Babes what? Why?" She asks concerned as she puts the bandage on. "I just can't do it no more. I rarely get paid, these rich folks don't respect me. I just don't think this is my job...my passion." I sighed. "Yn.. it takes time ok. Look how bout we have a girls night tonight! You can pick the movie this time. I'll text my sister to help set up while we're here." She smiles. "Ugh fine." I rolled my eyes. "But promise me you won't leave. You're my only girl!" She whines. "You know i can't leave you.." I hug her. "Ight let's go before Ms. Molly screams at us." Debra chuckles. I went out and walked up to the table with the bodyguards. I looked dumb with the bandage on my face. I sigh. "Welcome to Good Times, i'm YN i'll be your server tonight how can i help you?" I fake grinned. The whole Ball family were there. Even Melo and his girlfriend. "I'll have the Salmon." He tells me. I write it down and i asked everyone else. "They'll be coming up soon! Can i have your menus..?" I took all of the menus and when i took Melo's and we accidentally touched hands. Later on, their food finally arrived. "If you have a questions then please let know." I grinned. "I love your nails by the way." His girlfriend tells me. "Who did them?" She asks. "Oh i do my own nails." I tell her. "Very cute! I should let Ming ming to do that design on me." She tells me. I hate girls like her. They seem nice but they're real assholes. I try to ignore her comment. I served everyone else the rest of the night. I finally bought the check for the Ball family. "LET ME PAY FOR IT!" His dad yells. "I MEAN WE ARE BIG BALLER FOR A REASON!" He laughs at loud. I rolled my eyes. The check was paid and they all started leaving. From a distance i can see Melo and his girlfriend fighting. It's not my business but it ain't look good! I finally ended my shift and drove to my homegirl's house for our girl's night.
"Hey hey hey!" I opened the front door. "Heyyy Yn! The snacks are ready and the tea is gonna be stirring too." Myra says to me. Myra is my homegirls sister. "What tea?" I said sitting on the couch. "TMZ just filmed Lamelos fight with his girlfriend. And it was so bad!" Myra laughs. She shows me the video of the two fighting. "You know what? I'm going to bed." Melo storms off. "WE ARE NOT OVER JACK ASS!" She walks in front of him. "Dana.. you claim that i'm cheating on you but yet you're the one that's been doing modeling shoots with ex boyfriends and talking to guys you say are hot. Do you even love me? After all the things i've done for you." He shrugs. "Of course i do!" She stuttered a little bit. "Goodnight Dana.. Please don't talk to me nor text me or even follow me. We are done!" He storms out. "LAMELO LAMELO!" She kept chasing him. "Oh poor dude!" I said. "Yeah girl they've been fighting for months! Rumors say that she fucked her ex during a shoot." Myra tells me. "What are we talking about?" Rebecca comes in with her pajamas. "Girl all i know is that this man is single and so many girls are gonna holler at him. I mean think about it. He's one of the hottest guys in the NBA.. no one will beat that!" Myra sits on the couch. "Even you!" Rebecca points at me. "Me?? I'm just a server.." I chuckled. "Mmmm we don't know if he's into that." She gives me a mysterious voice. "Gurl shut up!" I laughed at her. "Okay let me dress up."

So all night we were playing board games, drinking, and gossiping. This is what we do every girls night. I woke up with a huge headache. "Oh fuck.." I groaned. "Girl we had a time last night!" Rebecca says to me. "Oh shoot we're going to be late for work!" I said getting up fast as hell. "Shit you're right!" Rebecca says also getting up. I went back home and freshened up. I got my fresh uniform on and i went to my bathroom. I looked at myself in the mirror. "Another day another dollar!" I then grabbed my purse. I got my keys and went outside my house. As i try to start my car, it wasn't starting. "COME ON!" I had to call a mechanic and they dropped me off to work where it's now calm. It's gonna be packed later today due to the basketball game across from here. "LADIES LADIESS ITS MEN'S NIGHT!" Friday nights means men night and that means we have to wear more revealing clothes. But it brings more tips though. I had my regular uniform on but when the nightshift happens i gotta change. I sighed. As the day go by I was getting a bit tired. Men's night started and i changed into my other uniform. More customers came in and i was walking up and down tables and the kitchen. "COMING RIGHT UP!" Just then... "AWH!" I bumped into someone. "I'm so sorry!" I slowly looked up and it was Melo. He was finer closer. "I-uhm.." I started stuttering. "You're good! Are you ok?" He asks me as he gets me up. I nod smiling at him. "DUDE LETS GO!" His friends says behind him. "Thank you again!" I waved at him. He didn't hear me as he was walking to him table. I continued my job. "Hey girl how are feeling?" Rebecca asks me as we were both waiting for our tables food to be ready. "Girl i bumped into Melo!" I told her. "Girl what?" "He helped me get up. I was apologizing but he told me that it was ok then he walked away." I said. "Ouuuu you're so lucky to even talk to him!" "TABLE 5 READY!" The chef yells at me. "I'll talk to you later." I grabbed the food. All night i was getting tips and some even pictures. Rebecca says it's because of my back tattoo and how pretty i look. But i don't see it. As i walked passed Rebecca she says "Melo will not stop looking at you.." I looked at his direction and i can see him staring at me. I quickly looked away. "No way.." It was 2AM and it was time to clock out. "You sure you don't want to ride with me?" Rebecca asks. "No girl i'm fine! I'm calling my uber right now." "Okay! I have your location! Have a good night!" Rebecca hugs me. "Goodnight!!" As she left, a lambo pulled up in front of me. "You need a ride?" Melo pulls the window down. "Oh uhm i'm calling an uber now i'll be fine." I grinned. "Baby I don't want you to be here by yourself. It's dangerous." He tells me. "Baby? Plus can i trust you?" I shrugged. "Look take a pic of my ID or my license plate .. take a pic of me.. i don't care.. i just want you be get home safe." He shrugs. I was still unsure. "I'm a basketball player and I'm a good guy! You can look at my records and even talk to my dad." He kept going. "I have pepper spray." I said as i got in his car. "If you have to film me then be my guest but i just want you to go home safe." He shrugs. "Fine.." I finally went in his car. "So let me know where stay at ok?" He asks me. I nod. He starts driving. "So can i get your name?" He looks at me. "I'm YN.." I answered. "I like that name. You don't seem like you're around here." He says. "No i just moved here 1 month ago but i have been a server for 10 years." I tell him. "Do you want to do that?" He asks. "Well no.. i always wanted to open a nail salon. I love doing nails! I'm trying the best i could." I sighed. "It's ok! You'll get through it!" He swerved. The ride became quiet. "I'm sorry about the break up.." I stopped the silence. He looks at me. "Nah it's cool. We used to fight like crazy. She's always been noticed by every guy. Yeah she's pretty and all but i'm not being noticed anymore. So we fight and fight. Some say i'm toxic but i'm not toxic i'm just frustrated.." He sighs. We finally made to my place. "Don't listen to what the press say.. if you know you're not toxic then don't let them know. You look like a real good person. I promise! But thank you for the ride. Have a good night!" I smiled. "You have a beautiful smile." He eyes me. "Oh Lamelo please..." I blushed trying to hide my face. "I'm serious!" He says. "Drive safe okay? Oh and you need gas money?? Here!" I pulled out my cash. "No you're good. Actually how about you come to my pool party? It's tomorrow night." He tells me. "I have work that night.. maybe i can come by and give you your gift." I tell him. "You don't have to bring a gift. I just want to see you again. Well without your uniform." He says.
