"Chroma, get ready to deliver the orders." The night kicked off with people flooding the venue, ordering expensive wine to go with the fish served, or simply conversing with each other. Chroma was having a hectic time serving all the customers; Chroma thought to himself how the grandpa from the fish market got this gig, but it didn't matter; Chroma knew that if everything went well, they would make a killing off all the rich people in the building.
Chroma was moving fast, quickly getting the food out and taking the orders of the customers who had just come in, but when Chroma had walked to the back of the kitchen, Chroma stopped by the grandpa. The grandpa looked at Chroma with a face of surprise. " Boy, I always knew that you were a good worker, but right now, you look telepathic; it's like you know when they're gonna ask for something."
Chroma thought he couldn't say he could see their muscles getting ready to move it would make him look like a lunatic, let alone if Chroma said he learned from playing a game." It's from all my part-time jobs, old man; even with me quitting, I still got the experience."
The grandpa looked at Chroma and laughed." Ok, then get back out there and make me proud." The grandpa patted Chroma on the back then Chroma picked up some more trays walking out of the kitchen to deliver the customer's food. Everything continued to go smoothly like that until a waiter asked Chroma to deliver food to the bar.
When Chroma walked toward the bar with the food, he saw three men surrounding a woman. From what Chroma could hear, he could tell that they were trying to chat the woman up because they started to talk about their connections and wealth.'

"No, thank you." The woman had started to decline their offers and advancements. The woman sat there with a smile, refusing them not like a damsel in distress at all. Chroma brought the food over to return to his job, but then Chroma saw one man grab the lady's waist.
Chromas, not the type to get involved in situations like this cause you are never sure who you could be offending, especially with everyone wearing these masks, but then Chroma saw the lady stand up and kick the man who had grabbed her waist in the crotch. Chroma looked and how the man dropped to the ground like a sack of potatoes. Chroma started to laugh.
Chroma caught the attention of the three men and one lady. The man who was kicked in the crotch and was on the ground was embarrassed he looked at Chroma." You think this is funny, you waiter call your manager over right now." Chroma looked at the man, shrugged his shoulders, and started to point and laugh louder, grabbing the other guess's attention.
The other guest quickly started to whisper once they had seen the man on the floor, and their guesses were as good as any. When they saw the lady standing over him, the man started to get more embarrassed." what are you doing just standing there? Shut that brat up."
Chroma figured the man on the floor was the boss because when he said that, his two lackeys came running at Chroma full speed. The bigger lackey threw a punch at Chroma, but Chroma stood there and waited for the punch to look like it was going to connect before he moved out of the way.
The lackey started getting tired. The punches continued to fly at Chroma, but he kept easily evading them at the last minute. The man on the floor looked at the other lackey that was standing there in a daze." Help him; what do I pay you for f**k him up."
The lackey in a daze quickly snapped out of it at his boss's words; this time, the two came at Chroma together, but Chroma made it look easy when he kept evading him. The lady who had kicked the man in the crotch had a surprised look on her face because she had a side view. She could see that Chroma's eyes were red. The lackeys were too busy trying to hit him to realize this, but someone looking from an outside perspective could quickly tell.
Chroma looked at the two tired lackeys." Alright, you two, I'm done playing around. If you run at me this time, I will use my right to defend myself and seriously hurt you guys. The smile started to pop up on Chroma's face. The lackeys looked at their boss, who was getting off the ground." what you doing standing around looking at me for get to doing your job."
This time when the bigger lackey ran at Chroma, he sidestepped him and grabbed a wine bottle and busted him over the head with it." I told you to give up." The lackey hit the ground fainting. The smaller lackey looked around then looked back at Chroma. Seeing that he was alone, he started to back up, then once the lackey was far enough away, he turned around and started to break out into a sprint.
The man who just got off the floor and pointed at the lady." You set us up, didn't you? This waiter isn't typical. Were you trying to do this to get money from me, you cheap slut." The man raised his hand to hit the woman. Chroma looked and seen that the distance was too far away to help, but then the lady kicked him in the crotch again; this time, the man in the audience seemed to feel his pain when he hit the ground.
"A whats is going on over there." The guards finally came from all the noise, but Chroma was not trying to stick around to get them an explanation vs. some rich guy. It was apparent what side they would take, so while the crowd focused on the violent woman, Chroma decided to slip out.
***
Chroma made it to the van that he had arrived in without being seen after leaving the hotel. Chroma sat inside the van by himself for quite a while, the reason being even with the wait, it would be faster to ride to the market than walking home from the hotel.
Chroma sat there looking out the window, waiting to see people leave. Still, then he saw a browned hair woman come outside looking around it was the woman who had just kicked the man twice she took off her mask to get a better look around, but she couldn't see Chroma because he was sitting inside of a car, but Chroma could see her.
Chroma could see her hazelnut eyes that went along well with her brown hair; she was very good looking too like she belonged on tv with her sharp facial features and slim body Chroma could understand why the man tried to go out of there way to chat her up.
Once the beautiful woman couldn't find Chroma, she put back on her mask and went back inside the hotel to rejoin the event that was transpiring, and just like that, more time had flown away.
Chroma finally saw the other waiters he was inside with and the grandpa coming out to the car. Once they were close enough to the vehicle, they could see Chroma. The grandpa opened the door and reached inside, grabbing Chroma by the ear." I don't know where you went, but you should have let me know you were coming outside. I was looking all over the place for you; what would happen if you got in trouble? How would I explain to your family."
Chroma explained what had happened after getting nagged by the grandpa on the way home. The grandpa went around dropping the waiters off instead of letting them walk because it was getting dark, but he made Chroma stay with him into the end and dropped him off last.
Once Chroma dropped off, he waved goodbye to the grandpa." You sure to be safe on your way home, old man. Don't make any pick stops." After Chroma waited to see the car get out of sight, he went inside his house and saw the food prepared for him on the kitchen table. He thanked his mom in his head before eating, going to his room, and sleeping.
