TinamoCafé

Kim, don't go there

Drink for the day: Sadduccino (cf) a three layered frothy drink, low level sadness, three times lower than depresso, sweetness is there.

Wow, you really like this garbage I'm telling you. Okay for that reason I'm gonna continue telling the tale of our retarded heroes.

It's been a week since the not-so-grand opening of the TinamoCafé. (I still laugh at the shop's name) I thought they wouldn't do so well, but their café is freaking booming!

Akalain mo 'yon may mga nauto sila?! People liked their creative ideas. (Ryen's ideas) and Ryen's infamous deduction show. I know, what do I mean?

Well, Ryen's on waiter shift today so let's see what he does.

"Kim, isang sadduccino nga for our sad customer at table 3," sabi ni Ryen kay Danilo na nasa counter. S'ya ang cashier ngayon, habang si Jorge ay ang barista nila. As you already know Jorge is a good cook and has talent in things that involves food or drinks.

Ryen on the other hand is talented in eating those food.

Reinier is a waiter as well. People actually like Reiner's flirting. Who knew, right?

"Excuse me? Pogi, pwede magtanong?" tanong ng isang babaeng customer kay Reinier habang naglalakad s'ya malapit dito. Nilapitan n'ya naman ito at nginitian ng pagkatamis tamis. Panutya.

"Sure! Basta wag lang tungkol sa stats." He chuckled at his own joke. "How may I help you?"

"Napansin ko lang, bakit 'Kim' lahat ng nasa nametag n'yo?"

Ryen, who heard the question, coughed or I don't know maybe choked on his own saliva. That nametag wasn't his idea but he's the one who suggested it.

Reinier's smile widened. "Because I'm Kim, they're Kim, we're all Kim!"

Natatawa naman 'yung babaeng customer sa palabas ni Reinier. Kahit hindi n'ya na-gets sige lang, cute naman daw kasi 'yung waiter.

"Okay lang 'yan, Kim." Reinier winked at the customer and proceeded to the other customer who called him.

After brewing the sadduccino, Ryen proceeded to take it to table 3, the sad girl sitting alone.

He gently placed the cup down the table and smiled warmly at the customer who was staring at her phone.

The girl looked up and stared intently at him which caused Ryen to panic. 'Luh, may dumi ba sa mukha ko?' He thought. Nagtataka man pero nginitian n'ya lang ito at akmang aalis na sana pero nagsalita si Ate girl.

"This is the saddest coffee I've ever had. . ."

He stopped in his tracks and looked at the girl again. This time analyzing her. Now, this is Ryen's magic. I can't explain how he does it but it's cool, even I respect the skill.

"Heartbroken, huh." He uttered. This caught the girl's attention. Since the girl heard him he continued para naman hindi s'ya mapahiya. He cleared his throat and sat in front of the girl.

"LDR?" he asked.

"How did you know?" The girl skeptically asked, squinting her eyes at Ryen. Itinago n'ya rin ang hawak na phone sa bulsa ng jeans n'ya.

Ryen smiled sheepishly. "Same." He sniffed. (Like a bad boy am I right?!) "Alam mo kasi, 'yung mga magkakapareho ng sitwasyon nagkakaramdaman 'yan e," salestalk alert, "naramdaman ko lang na baka magkapareho tayo." He looked at the girl's wrist. "3 years na kayo? Wow, stay strong po. Ako kakabreak lang sa'kin e."
