Dinner Gone Wrong
Drayce's P.O.V.
When we got to the diner the sitting arrangement was not in my favor. This is how it was, at my left was James and Helen right Henry and Sarah and right beside me is Selena. After we got seated, Selena called the waitress and the waitress moves to our direction and she looked so familiar "Well, well, well if it isn't the new girl?" Selena said with a smirk, yes it was Sapphira so this was where she was running off to. "Hey how can I help you?" Sapphire said politely, "What about sweet pretzel and yogurt?" 'Selena is so annoying, does this girl think this is a restaurant? What's her problem?' "Since that's all you want I'm going to place it…" "The rest of us will have just milkshakes" Henry says "…hmm…flavors?" "The girls will have…" "Strawberry and cherry tops" Sarah cuts Henry and starts giggling and snuggling him like he was running away "…while the boys will have dark chocolate" "Okay" Sapphira said as she left to the kitchen.
…Few minutes later…
Another waitress gave us our milkshakes and Henry started to tell a story and were laughing and talking about stuffs that happened at school. Everything was so peaceful that I forgot about the sitting arrangement until… "Why hasn't my food arrived yet, I'm starving" wait a minute, Selena is the only one who hasn't been served yet didn't Sapphira take the order, Henry called the other waitress "Hello Jennie…" "Can I help you?" "It's my friend here…" then Selena took over "Well I have been here for thirty minutes and your colleague isn't here with my order yet".
"Sorry about that, we are short on staffs and the cook left for an emergency and Sapphira took over the kitchen" "WHAT!!!" we all yelled. "What happened to Mrs. Homes?" I said with worry evident on my face "Her baby fell sick and needs he attention" "Poor Mrs. Homes" Henry said with a sad face. We were both sad of what we just heard and the peaceful atmosphere was gone, 'is it just me or there is a smirk on Selena's face and now she's so calm'.
Jennie breaks the awkward atmosphere "So what was your order again?" "Sweet pretzel and yogurt" "Okay I'll be right back". In a minute Jennie came out with Selena's order and few of orders of other customers, after serving others she came to our table "Here's your order, please enjoy" she says as she places it on the table in front of Selena. She was just staring at the food "Can I speak to the manager?" we all looked at her with confusion, what is this girl up to? "Sure" Jennie says with a smile on her face and leaves.
I don't like where this is headed but whatever Selena is doing is going to cause chaos in this place. Sapphira's colleagues were staring our way and everyone around me is holding their breath, thinking the same thing; 'What is she going to do'.
Sapphira's P.O.V.
…After School…
I was heading to Delicious diner because I didn't want to be late to work but I was stopped in the hallway by the handsome guy in my history class "Hey I…" I cut him off "Sorry I did love to have a chat but I'm in a hurry so maybe some other time" with that I zoomed off and headed straight to work.
On getting there, Jennifer and I had a little chat while I wore my uniform and we started working. Jennie was an easy person to work with even though she was older than me so everything was going well until some group of people came in and settled down then one of them called my attention and I'm not mistaken, 'I recognized that voice…wait a minute, Selena!' I moved to their direction "Well, well, well if it isn't the new girl?" 'Sapphira control your anger, you've got to polite' "Hey, how can I help you?" "What about sweet pretzel and yogurt?" "Since that's all you want I'm going to place it…" "The rest of us will have just milkshakes" "…hmm…flavor?" "The girls will have…" "Strawberry and cherry tops" Helen said as she starts snuggling her boyfriend who was in my homeroom "…while the boys will have dark chocolate "Okay" I said as I left to the kitchen.
When I got into the kitchen, everywhere was in chaos "What's going on?" "Mrs. Homes went home because her baby ran a fever" Jennie said as she tries to clean up the mess she made on the burners and on the cooking table, ingredients where scattered everywhere "And there is no one who knows how to cook here" Matt, the one in charge of making smoothies said, "We don't know what to" Dave, Matt's assistant said. I thought for a moment, "Okay just calm down" I hand over my order jotter to Matt "Matt make all the smoothies and milkshakes on this jotter and Jennie go to deliver them…" "Then what will you do?" "I'll take care of things here; Dave stay here to assist me with the cooking" "Okay" "Now move along"
…Few Minutes Later…
I was finishing Selena's order; I mean that girl is so annoying I just feel like poisoning her food but I'm not the killing type, just as I was about to finish Jennie entered the kitchen "There is a particular order that hasn't been attended to "Sweet pretzel and yogurt" I said as I sprinkle some cheese on the pretzel "Yeah, she seems a little angry" "Whatever…Matt where is the yogurt I asked you to please help me make" "Here it is" I took the glass and did the final touch "I'm done" "Okay" Jennie said as she takes the food and leaves.
