Frankie's was a small café situated in the heart of Yarragun. I'd been enough times to know it was amazing.

Yarragun was a smallish town but was populated by nearly half a million people and many more called it their place of work.

My parent's farm was on the out skirts of Bellung. Which was a a quarter of an hour out of Yarragun. Bellung had nothing apart from houses, farms and a small primary school with around 150 students, which compared to the primary school I went to it was huge.

"How can I help you today?" The perky, blond barrista asked.

"I'll have a large mocha frappé please, and... Alisa, what would you like?"

"Ummm..." My eyes raked the menu searching for the drink I desired. "Can I please grab a regular caramel hot chocolate?"

"I'm sorry, we've actually just ran out of regular cups. Do you mind if its a small?"

Of course! Its always us! Why is it always us?!

"Um, if you don't mind I might grab it in a large."

She nods her head. "I sure can do that for you, and because of the inconvenience caused you'll get ten percent off your whole order."

Ohhh. I likey that bit.

"In that case..." Mica pushes me over and starts ordering cakes and slices. "Do you want anything to eat?"

"Umm... can I grab a salt and pepper squid with a side of chips, but if possible can I grab extra aoli instead of the tomato sauce?"

"Of course you can." The blond smiles. "Is that all?" We nod. "Alright, so that comes to..." She presses a few buttons on the screen. "That will be 29.50."

Mica hands her a twenty and a ten insisting that they keep the change before she drags me to a corner. I sit up against the wall and she sits opposite me.

"Here we are ladies." A tall brunette bloke says as he places our drinks down.

"I'll be your waiter for today." I look down at my feet. "My name is-"

"DAMN DANIEL! Back at it with the white vans again!" I don't know if it was me or Kat, but it happened.

Everyone looks at me. "What? He's got white vans?!"

"I hate this." He mutters. "As I was saying, my name is -in fact- Daniel."

Mica laughs. "Damn Daniel!" He closes his eyes and shakes his head.

"Your food will be ready shortly."

He walks away and we burst out laughing.

"What's so funny?" I look and see Maggie and Kaylea.

"That- guy- had- white vans- and- name- was- Daniel!" I manage between laughter.

"Damn Daniel." Kaylea said.

"Alisa, shouted it soooo loud that the whole place went quiet." Mica explains.

We sit there in fits of laughter until Daniel comes back with the girls drinks.

We were still recovering when he brought out our food.

As he placed my plate down I saw him fiddling with something underneath it.

"If you need anything, and I mean anything, you call me." He says emphasizing the 'call' bit.

He turns and walks off but as he does I catch him wining at me.
