"I like you"
"You don't fit my aesthetic"
"Oh, really? I think we make a cute couple"
"Not happening, Hossler"
"Oh, we getting bold now huh, Easterling?"
The Next morning Nessa left with Alice, while she went back to the Sway-House, Alice walked to work.
She had decided on jeans and a white blouse with a pastel pink cardigan.

It was very different from the way she usually dressed herself, but a skirt and a cute outfit somehow didn't feel right this morning.
----------------------
The five-hour shift with Emma's was quite fun, to be honest. They joked a lot and since Emma had control over the music they were in a good mood and dancing the whole time.
Alice already noticed a trend with their guests. The people that dressed expensively often tipped less than teenagers or people her age.
It was absurd but maybe that is what happens when you get rich? Maybe you just get possessive of it and don't want to let it go.
But then there were the people that dresses expensive and gave big tips.
Alice couldn't really explain it if she tried but she noticed it and she changed her ways of serving. She messed up one order and the person was really chill about it.
Alice just made a new coffee without sugar and he was happy, the tip was big too. In the lunchbreak, Alice had a salad and talked with Emma while cleaning tables and restocking their salad-bar.
Emma had just told her a story about her boyfriend, well now ex-boyfriend. They had broken up Sunday but Emma didn't seem sad.
After the first lunch hour, Nzinga and Eva came into the store. Nzinga was quick to hug Emma and Alice, so did Eva before she held her hand out to Alice.
"Welp, probably should have done that first but Hi. I am Eva. Very nice to meet you."
"Oh, it's fine! My name is Alice it is very nice to meet you too!"
"How did it go?"
"No major mess-ups. Normal customer range for a Monday, good tips. A lot of coffee."
"Well, it is Monday."
"Explains the coffee."
"Very good girls, you can go when you want. Alice, did you see your wardrobe?"
"I did. Thank you."
Truth behold, there was no way that Alice couldn't have seen it. On the top of the shelf-unit stood "ALICE" written in a beautiful, big font. And in a neon blue.
In there was her cardigan and her purse, together with her outdoor shoes. Alice had decided that this would probably be a good idea since she would walk a lot. The shoes that she was wearing inside the shop were really comfortable while she often wore pretty and cute shoes with her outfits.
