I whisper shouted to myself ' why are they here? Do they know that I am here? And do they even remember me? '
I was happy to meet them again but I was still worried about their reaction and if they still acknowledge my existence!
I gave myself some pep talk and decided to walk to them proudly afte right change to my cute black and white waiter outfit and ask their order as if they're just as any costumer we and if they recognize me then that's good and if they don't, I'll walk away regretlessly (if that's even a word).Pulling up my black box pleat skirt, I practiced what I'll say prior the situation, looked at our closet mirror for a last look and I then jumped out of the closet change room, I took out my pen so I won't take time searching for it through my wide stomach pocket in my work apron, I walked so fast so I can get their order before other waitresses and in the last moment, before I reach them by seconds, Isaac was coming fast too and we bumped it each other right in front of their table, and Isaac screamed dramatically and I cringed at his overreaction, I mean I probably will get a bruise from his elbow hitting my hip so hard but I didn't scream like I was giving birth!
I backed up a little and massaged my right hip so it might loosen up the pain a bit and my eyes broadened to the horrific sight I saw, I fell on the floor immediately, the last time I saw a person bleeding infront of me was more than ten years ago!
Isaac, my cousin stood up terrified and put Isaac on the ground after he placed his huge Navy jacket on the floor for sanitary reasons, I came closer to understand what's occuring before my eyes, Isaac, my co worker, was holding a pucker face and holding his abdominal area that was full of blood, I asked nervously "Isaac! Open up his shirt, I'm afraid !does he have a big injury?", I was very perplexed for many reasons, mainly I'm scared he had injured an organ, second I'm peeing my pants if I was the reason!
" Isaac? " Isaac, my cousin asked, "why do you know my name? ", I replied with a smile " you don't need to know that currently, let's save the other Isaac! " I started looking around for tissues while I asked Jerry to call the ambulance as soon as possible." Here! " Sidra shoves a box of tissues to my face, " Place it on the wound carefully, and then fondle the area slowly and calmly ", I stared at her with a confused face as she instructed me and I blurted out accidentally " Why don't you do it? ", she looked at me like I said the weirdest thing a human being could utter and replied " My light denim jacket was 200$, do you understand that? "..... Deep inside me I whispered 'thankfully, because of you and your mom, no, I don't understand! ' but I just kept that to myself so no one can hear me.
I remembered Isaac and ran back to him and applied the tissue just as she instructed to be able to view the wound early then I removed the tissue to look at it and it was a very deep circular wound that had lots of blue and blach bruises around it and it was bleeding crazy... It looked like a cave, it was terrifying!
I panicked!
I stood up and looked around, there was only one costumer in the restaurant and she had her headphones on so that explains why she is still here while everyone ran to get out of the scene, my manager and the staff were absolutely clueless as they sit in the kitchen which is visible in my perspective, I turned my head to the other side and I saw relief, three middle aged men came in running with a very thin mint green bed that I've never seen before and searched for Isaac as Jerry pointed at him, they scolded us because we kept the wound free to absorb air particles which is very wrong and that we should have covered it but how could I know?
Everyone looked at me and said " She did it !" All in one voice and I had the worst feeling ever! This guy will probably have so much trouble and it's all because of me!My manager asked us to continue work as she left running along to the hospital with the ambulance.
Looking at Isaac, Sidra and Jerry, I smiled... I have no idea how to continue work anytime soon but I did, I stood in front of them and took out my pocket notebook from my apron to write their orders but I couldn't find my new pen inside of the notebook's spiral thingie, I turned around fast searching if it fell somewhere or somehow, I couldn't find it and I got really pissed off , then I heard a cute voice,i turned back to my cousins and Jerry was saying "um, are you looking for this? " He held my pen that was full of blood mainly at its top which made feel a little bit disturbed to touch but I did hold it anyway.
"Where did you get it from? " I asked with confusion and shock, he smiled wickedly as he said " I saw everything, you ran to us for some reason and that boy did too and you bumped him, hitting him accidentally with your really lame pen that went through him due to its sharpness and you can ask my older sister what organ did you hit, because I don't have the heart to do so! " I can't believe my 9 year old cousin is that evil smart, oh my goodness, their mom's genes are so strong!
I grabbed the pen from his hands and asked their order, I looked at Wajih first and waited till he moved his long bangs from his eyes and said " I would like a - I've seen you before? " I was hoping he would realize me but his second reply was " OH! Yes, right, you reminded of the Moana, the Disney Princess.... What? We have no features alike, so I guess the mom's genes are not THAT strong, "anyways, I would like a cappuccino with no foam please! " Wajih ordered.
"I would like to get a cheesecake and two juices for me and my little brother " Sidra ordered with a very straight face which was really uncomfortable.
