"I'm only here for the paycheck." - Mabel to Chubs 

There's something special about that little cafe on the corner. It's not the sound of shattering coffee mugs being thrown on the ground in pure rage or the constant eye-rolls at the wannabe-hipsters that refuse to eat their food without a picture. No . . .
Well, actually, yeah. It's probably that. It's a really special cafe.
Welcome to the Americano, where all we do is steal donuts from under the counter, drool over Dave while he's reading, and swipe out the sugar with salt as we watch people cringe in disgust.

"So, let me get this straight. You stomped all over his paperwork?" She started. "Not intentionally, but yes," I confirmed it. "Threw a drink in his face?" She added. "Expensive red wine." I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused. "Working with my new boss is going to be a piece of work." ** Synopsis: When the CEO of Signature Heights: Jensen Black, and a stubborn employee: Alexandra Brook, clash, it's a battle of wits & a war of perseverance.
