"One cappuccino with 2 shots of expresso," I echo throughout the small room.
A few heads turn to see if there coffee is ready but no one responds.
"Well since nobody's gonna take it I guess I'll drink it on my way to pick up Stella. Bye Eva." I tell my friend.
My shift is finally over. This was the time of day when I got to see little Stell.
"Alright, bye Harry." Eva softly speaks. She leans in for a hug and I wrap my arms around her petite body, inhaling her sweet perfume. I take off my hat and coffee-stained apron and exit the shop.
Eva's been a great friend of mine and we've been working at This small cafe' in Miami together for a while, even before mum died. It's very convienient, only thirty minutes away from the small apartment I live in, and twenty minutes from Stell's daycare.
I pull up to the daycare and get inside, its around five o'clock, and I was supposed to pick Stella up at four. I could tell the care-taker is obviously annoyed as she taps her foot impatiently on the floor. What could this old bitch possibly have to do anyways? My patience was growing thin.
"Harry I've told you before you cannot pick up Stella this late after." She saids in her squeaky voice. She purses her lips and crosses her arms. Ew, her lipstick is all over her yellow teeth. I cringe as I look at this womens unruly appearence in disgust.
"Ms. Craig you know I work." I point to my uniform to state the obvious. She grumbles and just hands me my little sister. Stella's face lights up and she wraps her tiny arms around my neck. She kisses my cheek and I hold her in my arms.
"I missed you too." I whisper, carrying her to the car. I buckle her up, get in the drivers seat and drive to our flat, the same one we were left in long ago.
