Kate came back for her second class, which I also have, and she couldn't stop talking about how amazing her sister's boyfriend was.

—So, enough of me. How was the party? —she asked.

—It was good

—You didn't go right?

—No, I went to help Damien at job.

—God, Sarah texted me and said that it was really fun. I wanted the details.

—Sorry for disappointing you, I don't like going to parties alone...

—I know, sorry for let you alone this weekend.

—Well, at least one of us enjoyed it.

The day went normal and I finished everything I had to do before going to work. There was Damien with the local full of students having coffee and shouting because of the stressful day they had.

—Thank God you arrived; I'm about to collapse here— he said to me while I was putting my apron.

—I see. — I laughed and stared working.

It was about 8 pm when the local started to get a bit emptier and we were able to have a sit a few minutes.

—Every single Monday— he said exhausted.

—But that's good, isn't it?

—Yes... I need to go to the bathroom.

And a minute after that a couple entered, but just one of them came to the counter.

—Bellamore, right?

—That's me. Do you work here?

—No, I just came for a coffee and they forced me to work. — I said and he laughed. —What can I offer to you and your company?

—Two large cappuccinos, a chocolate muffin and a berry one, please

—Of course, Name? ­— I asked by inertia while I was writing down the order.

—Brad. —he seemed confused.

—Sorry, is just the routine. Wait a minute and it'll be ready.

I started preparing his order and I couldn't avoid looking at the girl. She seems nice and absolutely stunning. I think I've seen her before, but I can't remember where or when.

The order was ready and even though it says Brad I couldn't resist to do it

—Bellemore! Your order is ready! Bellemore!

—Here I am, I heard the first time. — he said embarrassed.

—I'm sorry I didn't mean to...

—It's okay.

—If you need anything else just call.

—His last name is really Bellemore? — Damien scared me talking from behind me.

—Yes, it is.

And he didn't ask it because it was weird or something, it's just that he's really handsome and the fact that his last name means that is funny.

The night went on and I was as exhausted as Damien, so we decided to close a little bit before tonight.

Brad and that girl still in their sits and they were laughing a lot. At first, he seemed nervous, but I think she's easy to get along because she talked a lot and made him laugh so much. In a moment she went to the bathroom and I stare at him and I'm pretty sure he noticed it, but he tried to not look at me. Is he mad? Why would he be mad? We have only talked twice; today and the other day when we met, and I told him... oh. I've been teasing him with his last name the two only times we've talked. That makes sense, I would be mad too.
