Until the Light goes Out

Chapter 4

A little help

Tyla definitely knew her way around the kitchen, she had existed now for a few hundred years and could cook. MK looked in on her before he went out for deliveries. Mei was an acting waitress. Although she wasn't too sure who Tyla was, just that she was a friend of MK's.

"Two spicy chicken, and a beef stew!" Mei called. Tyla looked up her shoulder and nodded. Mei could have sworn she had seen that look before. She didn't talk all that much actually.

"Order up!" Tyla yelled and put the bowls down on the counter.

"I don't think she knows." Tang had a mouth full of noodles. Tyla just chuckled and looked around as something came up on the computer screen. MK had shown her how to use it to find the deliveries for those who order by website.

"Three..." She nodded and started to make a few more bowls.

"Yeah if its delivery just put it in the bags and MK will take them out for you...maybe." Mei told her. Tyla nodded and looked up.

"Yes father did say he needed some more focus." The door practically slammed against the wall. A boy with bright red hair walked in and sat down at the booth.

"Spicy, spicy beef."

"Red Son..." Mei growled.

"Oh...demon bull kids son?" Tyla asked, making him a bowl.

"Ah my reputation precedes itself?" He asked and looked up at Mei.

"Yeah, no...you were just annoying MK so much that he told us about you." Tyla said. It was the truth, she didn't really have a reason to lie to him.

"Tyla!" Red Son narrowed his eyes and glared. "Sun....Tyla?"

"Yeah." Mei's eyes grew wide.

"Sun?" Mei slowly backed up and opened Pigsy's door. "Might have a problem."

"Wassat?" Pigsy looked up from having his feet in warm water and a blanket around his shoulders.

"Your new temp is Wukongs daughter and Red Son just walked in." Pigsy groaned and stood up onto a towel, he peaked out the door just in time to see Tyla put a bowl of spicy beef in front of Red Son.

"Wow, did our parents fight." Tyla said putting down the spoon, and chopsticks. "Need anything else?" She asked

"Bean bun, and boba tea." He said as he started to eat. Pigsy looked baffled and looked down at Mei.

"Those two should be fighting. It's kind of their parents' thing." Pigsy said. Tyla looked up at them as she put the bean bun down.

"Just because our parents had beef with each other doesn't mean that it's our battle to fight. Right now, he's hungry and I'm the server." She shrugged her shoulders. Red Son chuckled and pointed at the boba.

"Milk?"

"I figured." She held out a cup and a straw. "You always did like it that way."

"Always?" Pigsy yelled. "You two know each other or something?"

"Don't live over one hundred years and not meet people. Especially when they're twice as old as me."

Pigsy put the cloth back on his head. "I'm going back to bed..." he groaned and left.
