CHAPTER 1 - PART 1
the weather was cold. it looks like it'll rain at any minute. the wind was blowing hard as I walk on the side of the street.
depressed. sad. scumbag-like person.
I'm panicking about what will I do now I don't have a part-time job to support myself in high school. I only support myself because of my decision - dunno if it's good or bad for me.
several months ago, my mom told me that if I want to study here, I should help myself. she said she'll not lend me any money for me to learn. plus she'll be using that money on my little sister's middle school.
yeah. what a pain.
but I guess, it's okay. I learned how to live alone and help myself but,
today,
sigh. I don't know how to explain.
that brat,
"BEEEEEEEP!"
I was halfway to cross the street when,
"CRASH!"
I felt my back was broken.my feet feel numb and anytime, I'll lose my consciousness.
I hear, rain pouring down,
and I see,
someone,
I've seen a few hours ago.
someone
"destroyed" my life.
.......... *a few hours ago*
"TABLE NUMBER 3, TAKE THIS ORDER, ARI!"
"YES! I'M COMING!"
the restaurant, the Italian restaurant has full of different people who want to taste the excellent food here for the West. this food stop was so famous because not only of good food but also have a great service and more. even though busy, I'm happy working here. with my salary, I can still live and stand alone, pay my rent and my school fees with just half a day of working, even though I go home at 11 or 12 AM.
but I don't have any choice. I need to survive and make my mom realize I can do this.
"ARI!"
"YES SIR!"
"Take this to table number 7, make sure you'll be careful, okay?"
"UHM, YES SIR!"
whoa. I've never heard those words before.there must be something else other than serving them with regular service.
"here's your order, ma-"
WHAT THE HELL!
SHE'S SO PRETTY!
I'VE NEVER SEEN THIS KIND OF CREATURE BEFORE!
"Uhm, then-"
SO THIS IS WHAT CHEF LEE TALKING ABOUT?
I'm SO GLAD SHE E-
"Uhm, are you listening?"
CRAP! I SPACED OUT! "oh, i-am s-sorry maam, here's your special Italian pasta. e-enjoy your food, maam!"
"thank you, then."
she smiled.
SHE SMILED!SHE'S SO RED!
wait, why blush?
damn, I'm so embarrassed!
"HEY! WAITER!"
someone called me.some big guys, Uhm, looks like gangsters but still, looks formal. gangster faces I mean.
"Uhm yes sir, do you need anything?"
"we ordered an Italian pasta, but why did they give us a pizza then? IS THIS SOME SORT OF DISCRIMINATION BECAUSE WE LOOK LIKE OUTSIDERS?"
"Uhm sir sorry for the inconvenience, your order is on the way, sir."
"We don't need new. we need that pasta you gave that cute chick a while ago."
"huh?"
WHAT'S WITH HIS REQUEST?
"if you're not gonna give us then, we'll complain."
"u-Uhm sir, I think you're request isn't possible" and gave him a little smirk or smile, I guess.
"WHAT? YOU MUST SERVE AND DO ANYTHING THAT I WANT BECAUSE YOU'RE MY SERVER, RIGHT?"
he grabbed my neck and forced me to say to the woman that request.
"JUST DO IT!" he told me.
and I'm, an idiot.
"u-Uhm, e-excuse me maam, can it-tell you-"
"ARE YOU THINKING? why the hell did you respond to his request? does your service always look like this? the hell is wrong with you, low-class people!"
she seems, angry.
well, "low-class people."
just because it working?
what the hell.
"Sorry maam but, WE'RE NOT LOW-CLASS PEOPLE! IS JUST WORKING AS A PART-TIME STUDENT IS CLASSIFIED AS THAT? HOW DO YOU DARE TO JUDGE US BECAUSE YOU ARE ONE LEVEL HIGHER THAN US? YOU CAN-"
"ARI! STOP!"
sorry, chef.
"Sorry ma'am, for the inconveniences and you too sir. your orders and things you want are on the way now. sorry for the inconvenience again, sir, madam."
"WHATEVER! I'LL JUST GO!"the woman then got out.
yeah, she's pretty, on the outside.
...
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING, ARI? YOU MUSTN'T DID THAT, NOW WE WILL HAVE A BAD IMAGE ON SOME PEOPLE!"
"Sorry sir, I just can't stand the things she said."
"but please! we must have hospitality- fine. "
"sir?"
"here."
"Sir, but it's too early for the salar-"
"thank you for everything, Ari. I hope you'll find another job as soon as possible. sorry. you can go now."
