A Small Test

Mag nodded with a smile. "Yes. We need a waitress, and I don't have anyone in mind right now," he said. "You said you've worked in a restaurant before?" Amy had said what was on his mind, but he didn't hire Yabemiya right away. He had to make sure she was qualified first.

Yabemiya nodded, nervous and excited. "Yes. I started working in that kitchen with my mother at the age of nine. When I was 12, my mother passed away, and I worked there until they kicked me out…" Her face darkened. It seemed she was hiding something.

But Mag didn't want to probe into her past. "Your work experience is impressive. I need a waitress who can handle a heavy workload. You'll have to greet customers, take orders, serve food, clear tables, and clean the restaurant. We're very busy during opening hours. Are you sure you can do this job?" Mag asked, looking her in the eye.
