____ for the amount you wanted.

∴ ════ ∴ ❈ ∴ ════ ∴

You worked at the Nanyang Chicken. You worked as a cashier lady and waitress.

The time right now is 10 p.m. You took overtime shifts since you want to earn some extra money to pay your apartment fees.

For real, you kinda sleepy. Of course who wouldn't be sleepy at night, right? But you did it, for a god sake apartment.

You put your head down on your hand. You fiddling with your fingers. Checking your nails since you quite boring.

You didn't hear someone had walked in the shop. You felt something tapped you. You turned your head quickly, and because of your actions, your face and the stranger face only far an inches. His face... I don't know what to say but really handsome like an angel from heaven.

You kept your poker face but inside, you felt your heart pounding too hard and fast.

You stand up, try to act casually. The person who-you-don't-know-his-name coughed, act like something hadn't happened.

“uhh I want to order” the person said.

“What do you want to order, sir?” you typing something on the computer thingy at the cashier.

“I want 10 pieces original chickens and 10 pieces more spicy chickens. Take out, please.”

You quite shocked by the amount of chickens. You accidentally widen your eyes, because of the shock. You are not really meant to do that. But it's your habits.

He chuckled. “it's not for me. It's for my friends.” he said like he can read your mind.

“ohh” it's all what you said.

You typing it again. In the computer, it's calculate the amount he will pay.

“it's ____, sir” You politely asked him.

He stared at you, barely even noticed that you talked to him. You felt your cheeks turned pink-ish colour as he stared at you intensely.

You had to waved your hands in front of his face too distracted him from whatever-he-think, to let him pay for the chickens.

He cleared his throat, to clear up the awkward tension. He take out his wallet, and pulled out his credit card.

You politely accepted the card. You scan the card and the receipt got off from the machine.

“Your order will be serve” you said, you give him the card and receipt that written his order with the amount.

While you preparing his order, you can felt the intense stared that you had earlier from him. You blushed, again.

You tilting your head to your left, too see that the man stared at you. Maybe he realised that you look at him because he turned away from you to his phone, to covered his action.

You look away too, trying too distracted yourself by picking up the chicken one by one into the food container.

You finished his order. You press the bell, to caught his attention. He stand up from where he sit. You reached out his order.

“there you go, sir” you passing the plastic bag to him.

“thank you...” the person trailing.

“y/n. My name is y/n” you complete his sentence.

“ohh thank you y/n. By the way my name is Joshua” he extended his hands.

You gratefully accept his hands. You smiled at him, which he returned back.

“You want to join me?” Joshua asked.

You confused as to what he said. “What?”

“you know date and stuff?” more like questioning himself.

“why are you want to go a date with stranger?” you asked while rasing your eyebrow.

“we are not a stranger. You know my name and I know yours.” he whining like a little child.

“umm yeah, but still we don't know each other.” you said, sternly.

“thus the objective of a date. We can know each other by go a date.” he protest.

You sighed. You know that you can't win if you continue your small argue.

“okay” you surrender.

“yay! Let's go now” he excitedly said.

“now? Late at night? How about your chickens?” you questioned.

“duh, of course! I heard there is a festival down the street, let's go together and my friends at the festival already, so I can give them the chickens adn we can go to our date.” he said while checking his phone and turned to you.

“umm wait let me take my things and closed the shop.”

He nodded. You take your things and you guys go out of the shop, so that you can closed it.

After you closed it, you and Joshua made your way to the festival. He reached for your hands and intertwined it. You blushed. He chuckled at you slowly.

Maybe overtime shifts, it's not that bad
