If I'm Louder, Would You See Me?

"Do you even hear me?" the lady on the other side of the counter said.

I laughed a little because she reminded me of a women who would be considered a 'Crazy Cat Lady'.

"Yes ma'am, I'm terribly sorry. Could you please repeat your order?" I said, trying not to burst out laughing. I don't understand why it was so funny, but it really was.

"Ugh, people are so difficult here.." She mumbled to herself.  "I'll have the Chicken Breast Burger for myself, and my cats love your Peri-Peri Chicken! So I'll take twelve of those Peri-Peri things. Want my cats to be happy now."

I was right.

I typed her order into the computer, while she walked over to the kitchen window.

"Ma'am, you still need to pay for that!" I yelled.

"Ugh, fine. How much?" She asked while pulling out her wallet.

"That totals up to £90.90 ma'am." I exclamed. What an outragous price! Who could even afford to eat her? Wow.

"Wow, cheap now!" Cheap? "Here you go." She handed me £100 and I gave her £9.10 back. She grabbed her entire order and started to walk out the door.

"Have a great day ma'am!" I said, trying to hold back my laughter once more.

After she was gone, it was closing time. I turned the OPEN sign to CLOSED and sat at the counter and laughed for about five minutes.

"What's so funny?" Asked Sally.

Sally and I both worked together at Nando's. She got the worse job as the cleaning lady, whereas I got a decent job as the casher. Sally and I have known eachother for two years, but we wern't the closest people. She was my bestfriend, I just didn't have many friends so she was almost all I had.

"That lady I just helped, was a Crazy Cat Lady!" I said, which made me laugh even more.

"What? That's hilarous!" She said as she laughed a bit. How was she not going crazy right now? How often do you see one of those people, I mean right?

"Hello! Hello? Are you guys still open? I need food!" I turned quickly too see a blonde boy with an irish accent banging on the glass doors, trying to get me to let him in. I walk up to the door and open it, but only enough to peek my head out the door.

"I believe the sign says Closed. Sorry, now leave." I was a bit annoyed. It had been a long day, and I just wanted to go home.

"Oh please!" Said the boy. "I'm really really hungry, and I can even pay double!" Double? Was this kid crazy? This place cost enough, why would he pay double?

"Ugh, fine. Make it quick though, I want to go home." I said to him, as I opened the door, letting him inside.

"I'll have two Peri-Peri Chicken for me, and four Chicken Breast Fillet's for my friends." He orderd to me. 

"Okay, that'll be £41.80." I said. I felt bad because he really was kind of cute, and I was being sort of a jerk to him. "Oh, and you don't have to pay double." I smiled to him as an apology. He took that and smiled back. His teeth were slightly crooked, but it suit him. His smile though, was heart warming. How could I have been a jerk to him before?

"So, you're number 14. I'll call your number when it's ready, okay?" I said, wanting him to forgive me for being a jerk.

"Okay!" He said cheerfully. He took the number card, and sat down at a nearby table to wait. How can a person be so cute?

I went to the citchen to pick up his meal. I looked over at the guy, and it looked like he was writing something on a napkin. "Um..14!" I called to him.

He looked up and smiled. "Yay!" He said quietly. He picked up the number card and the napkin he was writing on and walked over to the counter. He grabbed the bags with one hand and with the other gave me the number card. "Here's your number, and here's my number." He handed me the napkin as well. "I'm Niall by the way." He smiled at me and turned his heel and grabbed the door. "Oh! And thank's for letting me in after closing time, love." He then walked out of the door, into the the night.

Even though saying love was more of a thing in the UK, it was really cute when he would say it.

When I get home, I just flop on the bed, motionless for about five minutes. I slowly peel myself up off the bed and into the bathroom. I take off my capri's and Nando's T-Shirt. I let my hair down from the ponytail it was in. I grab my toothbrush and in the process, manage to knock over my glass perfume bottle.

"Ugh!" I say under my breath. I bend down to pick it up, and when I stand up, I hit my head on the sink. "Awe, ow!" I say, a little louder this time. Why the heck am I so clumsy tonight?

I finish brushing my teeth and taking off my makeup. I walk to my dresser and pull out a random pair of shorts and a tanktop to sleep in. I grab my phone when I remember to text Niall. I grab the napkin out of  my shorts pocket and walk over to my phone to type in the number.

Text Convo.

Wow, he sure puts a lot of kisses at the end of his texts! Well, that's okay. He's so adorable, it really doesn't matter to me. But did he really mean all that stuff? Like that I'm beautiful and the amazing goodnight wish? Niall really was sweet, I think he's a keeper. Eventhough we're not even going out..yet.
