As soon as I got here. I quickly started my shift.
It's not exhausting like last time becuase now we have plenty but easy to handle customers.

When the clock stirkes 10:00, my colleauges went home one by one ao I was left here cleaning the tables.
Karen should be the on whose doing this but she plead me because there was an emergency so I ket her off already.
While cleaning I heard someones footstep coming in so I said, "We're closed Sir, You can be back tomorrow"....I announced and I noticed that it is a man so adressed him as "Sir".
"Really?"....At his question, I can sense some arrogance on it so I lifted up my head to face him, not to my surprise It's Wayne.
"What are you doing here?"...I asked.
"Isn't it obvious?"...he said making me dumb one.
"And isn't it obvious that It is clearly stated outside that We. Are. Closed. Already".....I answered.
"But why does it say, We're open, Please Come in"....he said so I checked outside.
And Yes...
He was right, Oh my god, Maybe I forgot to flip it reversely.
So I immediately flip it and Came in.
"I'll let you off since I forgot to change the sign"....I said calmly without looking at him and walking straight to the front desk. "What do you want?"....I asked and he looked at me.
"One Espresso"....He said and he handed me his card And I immediately take out the bill on it before returning it to him.
After some time, I finished preparing his order so I called him.
"Here"...I said and he took it on the counter. I thought he was leaving after that but instead he sat on one of the table there.
But I didn't bother him and I made my way inside the staff room to change my clothes.
After changing. I walked out the staff room but by the time I locked the door of the staff room, I saw that he's still there but I ignore him.
"I'm closing the shop"....I announced and he stood up and followed after me outside.
After I closed the shop, I went towards the direction of the bus station and started walking.
I was walking when I heard a sound of a motorcycle driving towrds my direction but I didn't bother to look at it. I knew who the driver was so it's a waste to gave it a look.
I was about to reach the bus station when my phone suddenly rang.
So..I took out my phone from my pocket and stops for a while.
It's Lesley....
"Hey"
"What's up?"
"Nothing, just checking"
"Checking what?"
"You know that I'm still worried about you"
"(Sigh)...Look Lesley there is nothing to worry about okay, I'm fine very fine"
"Are you sure?"
"Yes and go to sleep, Your might bail your presentation tomorrow if you don't rest well"
"Okay, Fine..Bye"
"Bye..Goodnight"
"Mmm"
After that I ended the call and start walking again.
A few more steps and I'm reaching the bus station.
As I got there, I am all alone, there is no passenger left behind.
So I waited for minutes....
And still....theres no bus....
But I insisted to stay for a few hours, I thought that maybe it got problems, not sure but I'm gonna wait....
Few hours had passed.....
And There is Really No Bus....
So I decided to walk down the neighborhood to get home.
It's already 11:00 pm and here I am walking to get home.
As I was walking I can't help but to turn my head sideward. I am afraid something might happen again.
And then... a cold breeze touches my skin so I begen to cross my arm and gently caressed both of my shoulder.
I noticed that I forgot to bring the jacket again.
So I kept my position that way so The coldness that I am feeling will be lessen.
While I am walking I felt that my knees are weak already It must've been because of my work. I've doing the serving earlier so maybe that's why my knees are weak.
So I sat down on one of the bench there and started to massage my knees.
After a few massage. I stood up again and start walking again, just then I heard a loud sound of motorcycle behind me. I dared to look at it but it's light was too much for my eye so I used my left hand to cover an inch to my eyes so I could see.
And then It suddenly stop infront of me.
It's a man, and then he took off his helmet, that's when I noticed that It's Wayne...
"It's late, I'll tke you home"....he offered.
"No thank you"...I politely said and declined his offer just like that.
"It's late You don't know what might happen"....he teases me and I glared at him.
Just when I can't feel my knees anymore so I stopped from walking and sat on the road.
I noticed that he noticed my action so He went off his motorbike and walked towards me.
"I told you, even your knees gave up"...he said and I looked at him.
"Here"....he handed me his hand, At first I refused to grab onto it but i can't feel my knees anymore so I slowly stretched my hand to hold onto his and then he helped me got up.
"Let me take you home"...he said.
"No, I can manage just drop me to that bench and I'll just rest my knees, and get home"....I said not wanting to let him take me home.
"You're so stubborn, Woman"...he said
"I don't want you take me home, Can't you understand?"...I said while he's still supporting me to walk to that bench.
"Don't you pity your knees?"...He said more like mocking me
"Can't you leave me alone?"...I answered him by question too.
"Fine"..he said and he let go and luckily my knees felt more weak so I didn't stand so well that's why I fall waiting to touch the ground when an arm was suddenly wrap around my waist.
Just then, my knees get more lighter and I can't feel them anymore.
I slowly open my eyes and noticed that we're just a few inches away.
His arm was tightly wrap around my waist and his face was near my face..
We kept staring at each other until I came to my senses...
To be continued......
