two: awsten's hungry car

Ashley: Ladies, gents, and nonbinary pals, let me show you Pete Wentz's wake me up drink. [grabs a large coffee cup] First, you want to get your coffee brewed and pour it in. [pours the coffee in] Second, four pumps of caramel syrup. [puts four pumps in the drink] Third, seven pumps of frap roast. [seven pumps of frat roast] Finally, TWENTY shots of espressos. [puts in twenty shots of espresso in, holds up drink] I like to call this, "Attack on Toilet Frappuccino".

Pete: Sweet! My drink is ready. [grabs the drink] Thanks Ash! [downs the drink]

Ashley: [looks at Pete in disbelief, turns back to the camera] And that's just the first drink.

"Awsten, are you ready to go?"

A green highlighter bounces up and down, no doubt there was a beaming smile behind his mask, "yes Miss. Ashley ma'am!"

Ashley stares at Awsten, the camera catching the regret in her eyes as she contemplates what she is doing.

Ashley: With the pandemic, some people are hesitant to step foot into the shop. So, hiring a driver seemed like the perfect choice. [holds up a finger] Here is the problem though, the food keeps going missing in Awsten's car. He says it's not him, and his car has been eating it. [raises eyebrow] Can you see the problem in that statement?

Awsten: EVERY TIME I DELIVER, AT LEAST ONE ORDER GOES MISSING. I DON'T EAT THE FOOD, IT HURTS MY STOMACH. SO, THE ONLY LOGICAL EXPLANATION IS THAT MY CAR ATE IT.

Camera Crew: ...

Ashley: Exactly. So, I decided to join Awsten on his delivery runs today to get to the bottom of what is happening. [takes deep breath] I had to make sure Taylor has access to my will this morning in case anything happens...

"Pray for me," Ashley mutters.

Beomgyu shakes head, "I would, but I'm an Atheist."

With a final whine, Ashley is dragged out the shop by a jumpy delivery driver. Beomgyu and Hayley watch in amusement, and hope that nothing happens to the pair while they are out.

The older of the pair pats Beomgyu's back, "I'm going to take my break."

He nods, "okay, I'll let Mr. Pete know."

She thanks him and heads out of the shop. Beomgyu returns to the machines and inspects them to see if he had missed any spots from earlier. Didn't seem like he did.

"Right corner behind Marcella. There is always a spot there that everyone misses."

Ah yes! Marcella, the biggest machine in the shop. Pete had warned the new employees how she was a difficult one to clean out of all of them because she was so sneaky. The right corner being her best hiding spot.

Beomgyu wipes down that area and grins when it is spotless.

"Thank you! Mr. Pete has told us about that spot so many times!"

He turns around expecting to find one of the other employees, either Dallon or Josh, behind him. Instead, it isn't employee at all.
