(Delirious' POV)

"Alright everyone," I welcomed my staff into the kitchen, "It's 6:15am and we need to be open at 7:00am on the dot. The delivery truck should be here momentarily, now let's get shakin' bacon!" The employees just rolled their eyes and laughed before preparing the diner to be open for breakfast.

The place was a bit worn down, a little bit of the wallpaper peeling off the old walls. The tiles and lights were getting dull, but it didn't mean we didn't serve great food. I had the best staff I could ask for. They were amazing cooks and waiter/waitresses. The staff didn't mind if I didn't have enough money to pay them that day, they would still help out as much as they could anyway.

They knew I was struggling to keep it open. Business was very slow, I would get as much as a couple tables filled during rush hour if the day is lucky. I tried giving them some of my own earnings from side jobs such as YouTube and sponsor ships, but every time I offered it they would refuse it. Claim that, "They don't need the money, save it to buy supplies for the diner."

I continue to clean and prepare before checking my watch to see that it was nearly opening time. I warn my staff and unlock the front door, turning the 'closed' sign to say 'open'.

I nod to my waiters and waitresses as they collect their notepads. They smile back and head to the front.

"Hey Jonathan, the delivery truck hasn't arrived yet." I whirl my head around to see Rachel, one of my favorite workers, glancing outside the kitchen doors that lead to the back of the diner. I furrow my eyebrows and set down the rag I was using to clean off one of the tables. I quickly jog to the back and take a quick glance outside, and as Rachel said, there was nothing here.

"Are you kidding me? We're nearly out of supplies! Why the hell is it not here?" I panic and run my hand through my coarse hair.

"Don't worry. It might just be late. I'll keep an eye out for it." Rachel pats my back. I nod and I start to head back into the restaurant before I run into another one of my employees, Dave, who seemed in a rush.

"Sir, the diner is filling up, and quick. We don't have enough staff to accommodate for all of the tables." Dave said as he pointed to the dining area. People were filling up the seats unusually quick in the diner, some even standing outside waiting. What is going on? Why is it so busy? I told Dave that I had it handled and I got a notepad. I approach a table with someone holding a menu in front of their face.

"Hello! Welcome to the diner, what would you like to have to drink?" I question the menu reading person. He sets down his menu and looks at me in shock.

"...Jonathan?" Shit. There he sits, in a warm trench coat, my past lover that I desperately tried to forget so I wouldn't hurt him. Out of all occasions, he chooses to show up now? I lean over and whisper in his ear.

"Evan, not now. I'll talk to you later, okay?" He blinks his eyes and nods his head slowly. I back off of him and he tells me he would like a glass of milk. I leave him to go fetch a glass of white milk from the kitchen. I tell the cooks to make what I used to always make for Evan in the morning, consisting of hashbrowns, eggs, bacon, and two pancakes, which he loves. I grab the plate and the milk, and head over to his table. I set the glass and plate on the table while he was checking his phone.
