I was already dreading the date from the moment I woke up. I went about my day with my thoughts running around in my head. In fact, I was so in my own head that customers actually noticed and Greg had to give me a ten minute break to (and I quote) “Get my head back into the game”.
“Are you alright today dear?” Mrs. Wiggins asked snapping me out of my thoughts and I quickly nodded and gave her a small smile, “You’ve just been so out of it today; I’ve been watching you since I walked in.”
“It’s okay Mrs. Wiggins; I’m fine.” I said, “I’m just thinking.”
“Are you sure?” she asked again and I nodded, “If you’re feeling a bit under the weather then I’m sure Greg will be more than happy to give you the rest of the day off.”
“I’m perfectly fine Mrs. Wiggins,” I assured her, “I promise you.”
“Well if you’re sure,” she trailed off as I packed up her stuff, “I hear you’re going on a date with the hot guy.”
