The sun had gone down and darkness had fallen upon the workplace. Everything was quiet, and no one was here but me and my worker.

My employee and I had decided to close down the ace for tonight, but then a sudden burst had opened the door.

"Hello, kids! Ho ho ho! You better not be closin' for tonight. You both gotta continue workin' till yo shift is over!" My boss had chirped at us both.

"A-and when is that over?" I asked not knowing why I stuttered. Probably because it was already 21:00.

The boss gave a confused look to me, "Did you not get your schedule yet?" He asked.

I ducked behind the counter to check if anyone had slipped a piece of paper for me at all.

"I'm sorry, but I did not," I had told him.

"Ah! I'm sorry, I thought someone would give you your schedule," he said looking at my employee besides me somewhat mad.

He speaks again to say, "well, your shift ends at 12:00 am, so you better get yourself cozy! Haha!"

He then leaves the restaurant, with his ears poked up just like always.
