Main Corners Cafe

Chapter 1

It started off like any other day. Me waking up after snoozing my alarm clock 20 times and running to the bathroom with my eyes half closed so I dont lose any sleep. Today I am opening up my cafe. I remember as a child my father talking about his dream to open a restaurant in hopes of passing it on to me one day, but that day never came.
As my body went on auto pilot getting ready for the day I thought of nothing more then to gorge in some waffles with peanut butter on top. A lot of people find that weird, but it's oddly delicious! As I am thinking about my obsession with food toothpaste starts running down my face, onto my clean outfit. I quickly clean up and change before streaming curse words as I looked at the time. I am quite the procrastinator. How did I get this far in life? Beats me. I rushed out the door of my apartment into my 2018 Chevy Sonic. Why am I living in an apartment when I have plenty of money? Well, its more convenient for me and a lot cheaper. Besides, money isn't what matters to me. I just want to improve lives for everyone else with the help of therapy. And I finally got all of my businesses secured down after 4 years so I can make my dad's dream finally come true.
By the time I got to the cafe I was 20 minutes late. Whoops? I took a quick look around to check how the decor went. Honestly, I was impressed how well they did in such a short amount of time. It was more of a cabin scene on the inside with a cozy fireplace and comfy chairs. The wood was stained cherry red and waxed to perfection. My new employees were just standing behind the counter ready to go shaking their heads at me.

"Dont judge, I needed to get everything in order to open the cafe in an hour", I lied.

"Psh, we already know you slept in, you do it every day," Emma (17 years old) replied laughing.

"*gasp* wah? Me? Sleep in? Nooo. I'm an early bird" I exaggerated.

"As if" Brandon (22 years old) replied sarcastically, rolling his eyes playfully.

I love my employees. I hired the two a few months back. They're siblings and needed the money to help their mom out. So I secretly sent money to pay off their bills for a year and hired them to help out at the cafe. Over the summer we all bonded during the construction of my building. Emma has short black hair with blue eyes, she even has a few freckles splayed across her nose. She's very petite for her age, while her brother has black hair and honey dew brown eyes, he's tall and definitely works out in his free time. He's rather cute, but it's against policy to date employees for business purposes. But it never hurts anyone to take a sneak peak.
It was nearing 10 in the morning before our grand opening. I was slightly nervous about today, but I couldn't pin point why. I just felt like something big was going to happen. But I may be over dramatic. I am hoping to hire a new baker so I'm not the only one, especially when I have to go check up on my other businesses, not to mention in about 2 weeks I have my client Natalie coming in to the children's therapy for an appointment with me. She is the sweetest child I have ever met. Both of her parents died in a car accident a few months back, and she was put into foster care. She has nightmares still of them leaving her, and her having nobody. Honestly, I am thinking of adopting her. I love her and I dont want someone else traumatizing her.
The poor child is only 3 years old. And she has the cutest little dimples, with bright blue eyes and curly blonde hair.
I'm pulled out of my thoughts when Emma yells for me to get ready to open. As I near the door, I see a line has formed outside waiting for the grand opening. At the strike of 10 I unlock the doors and customers flood inside.
Let's see what my day awaits for me.
