Opening Up

The day starts like always. Another carbon copy on an old routine. Countless minutes pass by with me baking in the back. "Aria, take a break. I can cover for you" Jessie Says. "I'm fine, Jess. Now here, this is table fives order." I say. She grabs the cake and leaves. I wipe away some sweat on my forehead and look at the other orders. I come outside delivering cakes and then I see Carly having trouble with a customer. I deliver the cake that customer ordered and take her.

"What's going on?" I ask. "He's flirting!" She says. "Carly, what's so wrong?" I ask. "I stick with real things! Usually facts and figures. And guess what? I don't like guessing games or when I feel things before I know the feeling." She says. "Don't you think your being a little, I mean just a tad bit..." I say. "I'm not defensive! I'm just sick with being cautious! I can't risk reckless dating because of my miscalculated mind. You can not be too careful when it comes to sharing your life." She says. "Well I think you should go for it. Ok? Try it. If you don't explore feelings how do you find more feelings" I say. "I guess your right..." She says. She goes over and they start talking.

"What's Carly doin there?" Jessie asks. "I told her to go for it." I say. "Oh, serve the chocolate vanilla nut berry cake to table one." I say. She then takes it and serves it.
