I wonder if my boss will let me take off early? I shook my head. I reminded myself, "If I want a decent paycheck, I must work full time.". I sighed. Perhaps I should try and obtain a better paying job after receiving my paycheck? No. I am pretty sure that I am qualified only for this position. I could even request overtime." I considered the possibility and stood up. I could just ask her now. Then I remembered. Shit..she usually eats out for lunch. Oh well, I can just ask after work is done.
I didn't bother finishing my sandwich. As soon as I placed it in the bag, I crumbled it up. I walked inside and tossed the bag into the trashcan. The rest of the group is eating right now...perhaps I could clean some tables for them to save them the trouble of cleaning them. I snickered at myself. Bullshit. I'm just looking for more tips. I examined some of the tables.
The only tip left was a five that could be found on the table where Jun served. I put the five in my apron pocket. "It's quite rude to take money from people Henry Dear." I jumped and turned around and looked at Jun. For how long has he been standing there? I could have sworn he wasn't anywhere in sight when I came back inside. Holding my apron pocket, I backed up and glared at him.
My wrist was grabbed and I was pinned against the wall. I grunted and looked at him shocked. He grinned at me. Creepy... "You should know better than to steal." He leaned in close to my face. I didn't know what to do. I was frozen. There was a terrifying aura emanating from him. It is difficult to understand how someone like him could appear to be so terrifying.
I shook off the thought. No! I am not afraid of someone like him! I stamped on his foot and then pushed him away. He grunted and stumbled back a bit. I turned to run to the bathroom when I heard him giggle. He has such a creepy giggle... I turned to him. A smile spread across his face as he stood up straight.
The words I heard shocked me. "I am just teasing you! You can keep the money. I will never use it." I couldn't believe his words. So then what the hell was that about? I clenched my fists and turned away from him. By the way, the boss would like you to visit her office." I did not reply, I simply walked away. I then paused. Wait...isn't she out eating lunch? I turned to look at Jun but he was gone. What the hell?
