"I-Uh...Well, you see-" I stuttered as Eliza turned around to face me. Out of the corner of my eye I see Maria's glowing figure smirk.

"No, John, she can't see" I scrunched my face and turned to her, forgetting Eliza was sitting there.

"What?"

"Who are you talking to?" Eliza asked, making me jump.

"I was singing to myself..." I mumbled. She shrugged at went back to sleep. I turned to Maria but she was gone.

"Damnit, Maria" I rolled my eyes and fell asleep.

"Hi, went to sooubway, what can I get you?" I asked, in the fakest voice I got muster.

"Uh, can I get a footlong with onions on the side?" The man asked. I was confused, but grabbed a soup cup and put onions in it-

"No, on the side" he groaned. Oh, he only wants them on one side-

"NO! ON THE SIDE" He began yelling at me.

"...On the side of what?" I asked, afraid of saying the wrong thing.

"ONIONS!" He yelled, before rolling his eyes and storming out, almost knocking John over as he walked in and behind the counter. He needed a job and I got him one here when the other guy James left. Kinda sucks, he was pretty cool.

"Hey!" He smiled at me and I heated some chicken up.

"Hey..." I groaned, and he winced.

"Ooh, bad day, huh- stop taking the food you know you're not allowed to do that." I rolled my eyes and smiled.

"Something happened last night." He said, as he tied his hair up and we waited for customers. I took the chicken out of the oven and burned my hand, before taking a piece of chicken.

"I saw Maria" He said and I choked.

"Reynolds? Maria?" He nodded. "How?"

"I dunno. I just woke up and she was there in our dorm." He shrugged. I sighed and shook my head as a customer walked in.

"Hi, went to sooubway, what can I get you?"

"Hi, can I get 5 footlong tunas?" He asked. John's head shot up and I sighed.

Dear God.
