Chapter 4: Luman's Pov

I woke up to my alarm blasting in my ear and a excruciating headache. I completely forgot I had work today, to be fair I don't know what day it is either but it is what it is.

I forced myself to get out of bed, change into my work pants and white dress shirt, and make coffee just to realize I am 13 minutes late for work. Now I have to get up abandon my coffee and drive 10 miles above the speed limit to go work at a place I don't even like working at. Shits just crazy.

After an exceptional test of how much over the speed limit can I go before I get pulled over this time I went 70 mph in a 50 mph limit, I'm kinda proud of myself though. I finally arrived at the place I hate most...work. I was given a dirty look by my manager which I returned cause fuck her she cant judge me when her name is basically Karen but make it bougie.

I walked to the back to put on my apron as fast as I could and went to go start seating people at tables for Brunch or whatever they eat at this time of day. I took orders from all my tables and might I say I got good tip today, I don't know what's up with everyone giving 20% but go off I'm not complaining. I'm pretty happy with how my day is going until he walks in.

"Aaron the food here wont be that bad stop being a stuck up pansy" "Well Melania the last time we went to one of your little quirky restaurants I got food poisoning"

I have no idea what to do besides go look for a another person to go take there order because like hell I'm doing that shit today. After 30 seconds of looking I realized everyone had went on break since it was around the time when people stopped coming in cause rush hour just ended, and every member of the damn staff said lets go on break because literally no-one's here and Luman can handle it himself.

Whatever fuck it my manager better fire me or give me a raise there's no middle ground.

"Hi, Welcome to Stella Moonlight, do you have a reservation for today?" I guess this was the first time Aaron realized I was there and the shock was very noticeable on his face as we made eye-contact I smiled at him in a way that I hope said 'Yes I recognized you but am choosing to not acknowledge it.'

"Yes I do, I have a reservation under Melania Robeu for two I believe." I quickly searched the list and sure enough she was right there and might I add on time for her reservation, new but not unwelcome.

I ended up being the one to seat them and be there waitress as that was the time my co-workers decided to do their fucking jobs, just my luck I guess. Aaron ended up ordering a few of my favorite items off the menu which was surprising I was excepting him to go down the spicy food route like Melania sure as hell did.

They looked like they were having a good conversation and I one-hundred percent did not get distracted by Aaron's smile and laugh multiple times throughout the day. Though not to my liking they finished their food and left thanking me and putting a 10$ tip in their check for me.

I'm so glad there was no interacting, but since there wasn't I cant help but wonder what he thought about it, what he thought about seeing me.
