"Good morning," I greet my mom and Aunt Ava as soon as I go downstairs for breakfast.
"Good morning sweetie," my mom hands me over a dish of eggs and bacon.
"How is your workplace, is everything alright?" Aunt Ava pours me a glass of milk.
"Alright, I love it there."It's my 7th day working at the bakery. The first day I went there everyone was so nice and helped me out on things I'm not familiar with. When I was a kid I always dreamed about baking goods and sharing them with people, so whenever my mom and Aunt Ava baked something, I was always there. I remember baking for the first time with Aunt Ava, it was a cupcake, but I burned them. But Aunt Ava is a patience person, she doesn't mind teaching me all over again. Now that I'm 18, my baking skills improve. That's how I'm able to work at this bakery place, and I'm happier than anything.
"Thanks for the breakfast, I will be going now. Do you two want something from my bakery place? I will bring it tonight."
"Sure, you know our taste right?" My mom winked at me.
"Alright, alright. Challah for you and Brioche for Aunt Ava," I laugh.
"See you," my mom waved at me.✌︎︎

"Hey, Luna, are you able to join us for the team dinner tonight?" Evelyn, one of the workers, asked me.
"Of course, it's my first team dinner."
"I cannot wait! Oh hey, Ian are you coming too?" Evelyn asks him as soon as he enters the store.
"Where?" he puts his bag down.
" Our team dinner, and it's been a while since we have one too. Also, it's a good chance for everyone to get to know Luna," Evelyn looks at me.
"Hi, Ian, I'm Luna and I just recently work here. I guess it's my first time seeing you although I'm here for about a week."
"Oh yeah, I was on a break. I'm back today." Ian smiles and starts doing his thing.
"Wells, team dinner it is." Evelyn goes to remind the other workers about it.Everyone here has a great personality, I think I will be close to them one day. But I'm also afraid to get close to them.
✌︎︎
It is 4 PM and it's my time to get off work. We will have our team dinner tonight at 7 PM. I pick Challah and Brioche for my mom and Aunt Ava and pay for it afterward. I head out but it's raining poor me.
"The weather report is never really right. The rain is pretty ugly" I decide to wait until it subsides.
I don't like rain at all, mostly because of that night when I was a kid. Would things be different if it didn't rain that night? The rain is just an extra part of that night, the real reason behind that accident wouldn't change because of that reckless driver. If that driver was more careful, I don't think I would say something like that to the rain.
"It's not stopping, I might as well walk to our dinner destination." I joke.
"Use this," Ian handed me the umbrella.
I looked at him surprisingly, "what about you?"
"I will put on my hoodie, it's okay."
"I'm heading to the bus, what about you?" I ask.
"I'm going to get my sister from her school and we will be on the bus."
"Is her school near here?"
"Like 10 minutes?" he laughs.
"I feel bad if I take the umbrella, I know it's sudden but I think we should go to her school together. We're all gonna get on the same bus anyway."
He looks at me for a second, "okay."We walk to the school together sharing the umbrella, I notice that his shoulders are wet but it looks like he doesn't mind.
"When did you start working there?" The walk is quiet so I think I should say something.
"Last year," he says.
"Oh..." it gets quiet again.The walk wasn't that bad, and we didn't say anything much either.
He waves at his sister who is standing in front of the school office, "Mia, over here."
"Ian!" she runs over, "I'm hungry, should we eat something first before we head home?"
"Um...let's go home and eat. I will take you to eat next time. It's raining a lot."
"Is it because of her? Who is she? Oh... your girlfriend?" she teases him.
"Take out your umbrella and let's hurry home."
"Oooooh, you didn't deny my question, I guess she is."
"It's not what you think, we work at the same place. I didn't have an umbrella so he offered me one but I feel bad if I take it. So we both head here instead." I try to clarify.
"You hear? Let's hurry." He lends me his umbrella and shares the other one with Mia.
