RIN

The next morning

     Me and Noah tried to talk to Jane last night but she left and I couldn't leave the birthday party and he couldn't leave his girlfriend and go after Her. So we agreed to go talk to her today after I finish my shift at work. But I finished work early because I didn't think that what's about to happen would happen.

     A usual boring and hot day at the diner. The usual Peter being a jerk. I stood in the kitchen decorating some cupcakes with sprinkles and fruits. When Peter comes to me asking what am I doing. I answered by lifting a cute, tiny cupcake and he smiles a bit but then he shouts "Do you think I'm going to clap for you for doing this silly thing?"
I took a deep breath and said "There is no one out anyway... am I supposed to stand still?"
"There are people out. go take their order"
I went out of the kitchen to find out that there are indeed three boys and a girl that looks like a barbie sitting on a booth. I walked to them and smiled saying "Good morning, Can I take your order?"
The first boy spoke "I want a strawberry milkshake"
The second said with a warm smile "Can I have a latte and two red velvet cupcakes"
I smiled and nodded. The barbie was about to speak but the second boy said "Eli... if you want a cupcake order one. I will not share my cupcakes"
The boy named Eli shouted "Ryan, You stingy little "
They started fighting and laughing and the girl kept shouting dramatically "Stop acting like children"
I noticed the third guy silence so I turned to him to see Damien. I stared in disbelief and he stared back. Until the girl shouted "I want a diet Sode"
I nodded and was about to leave in confusion but the girl stopped me "Wait. Babe, what will you have?"
Babe? sure!. I rolled my eyes and went back to them. Damien smiled provocatively and said "A burger"
I nodded and went behind the counter. I prayed that Darren burns the kitchen so that I don't have to go back to their table.

     I noticed them looking at me from time to time and Damien turned to look at me once so I understood that they're talking about me. Darren finished the order so I went to give it to them. Once I placed the order on the table the barbie said "That's not cappuccino?"
"It's Latte!"
She said in her valley girl accent "Well... I'm sure I ordered a cappuccino."
I sighed and said "I apologize. Your cappuccino will be ready in 3 minutes "
I grabbed the cup and the boy called Eli pulled it back again shouting something and he spilled it on her. I apologized and gave her a napkin but she started screaming and pushed my hand away. I looked at Damien who was looking at me with a smirk like he was enjoying what's happening. Peter raced to my side apologizing and asking what happened. And the girl accused me of spilling the drink on her on purpose and Peter kept apologizing.

     After Peter took me to the kitchen and yelled at me he went back to their table to apologize again and again. I heard the girl shouting from outside and sat on a chair nervously. Peter came in suddenly saying "You're fired"
"What! I've worked here since I was thirteen... And now you're kicking me out for a girl that will never probably come back again?"
He said in ignobility while crossing his arms "Yes"
I took off my apron and walked out angrily tryna control my tears. I raced home and collapsed on the nearest sofa. My father's kind hand patted my back so I cried in his arms awhile. When I stopped he asked what happened. I told him and his ears turned red and he said in anger "I swear I'm going to kick that boy's butt... who the hell does he think he is?"
Thank god I didn't mention Damien or Dad would go kick his and Jane's butt too"
I leaned my head on his shoulder whispering "Don't... I'll kick his butt myself later"
Dad laughed a bit then he got up and pulled my hand. I followed him asking where we're going but he didn't answer. We entered our empty garage so I asked "Where is the car?"
he shrugged "I sold it... It's a small town we don't need a car"
"I still don't understand. Why are we standing in the garage?"
Dad handed me the keys to the external door and said smiling "Happy birthday"
"You're giving me the garage?"
"To start your workshop you wanted since you were a kid"
I jumped happily and he laughed at me. I asked "But you use the garage to fix things!"
"I taught you what I know... now is your turn"
I hugged him thanking him and ran to my room. I grabbed a box from under my bed and read the list of the tools I'll need and took out my savings and started planning what I'll buy. And drew some sketches of how I'm going to renew the walls.
