        It was morning, and they have leashed Ellie up to take to work. She was fine until they got to the diner. Even in the car, Ellie could smell the food inside the diner, and she drooled all over the back seat.
        "Ellie, you'll have to be polite in the diner. This is where we work, we can't have any more complaints, okay?" Jupiter had trusted Ellie, and she gave a bark, indicating that she understood,"What am I going to do with you?" he pet her head and walked her inside.
         It was a normal work day, people asked for free food every now and then, but they had a no soliciting sign. On occasion, they would get some sh**** complaint about the food quality.  When Reese was on his phone in the back room, JuJu would always tease him with a nudge to the shoulder, but today he threw him out of his chair and said, 'Get to work bi***!'. Reese wasn't having the best day, it was clear.
          "Life sucks, everything is agony, nothing is worth it in the end," Reese complained to JuJu in the bed that night. He hadn't gotten cuddles, and they had no more sappy movies to watch. All they had was 'G-Force', 'The Lion King 2', and 'Love Simon', witch they didn't watch cuz they were looking at the reviews all month (they were great) and they needed a bad movie. They found a show on Netflix about diners, drive-ins and dives, and immediately Reese had a flashback to opening day at their diner.
         Two grown men walked through the door, one shorter than the other. Reese recognized these people, they were a couple. He saw them walking down the street a couple days ago, and he only knew it was them because of the color of their hair. One had deep blue hair, swept to the side slightly, the other had whitish hair, brown on the sides, and extremely attractive.
         "Welcome to Jupiter and Beyond!", Reese was snapped out of his trance by his boyfriend's booming voice. I can't ignore JuJu for just some guy, Reese thought to himself.
           Reese brought them to their tables, and got their orders.
           "Just the special, under Mars and Snickers." Mars said As Reese was already headed towards the kitchen.
