“Nuh uh, no daydreaming today, Kiddo. I’m just as surprised as you but we’ve got real live customers today” Esther jolted Carla out of her troubling half-experience and prompted one of the truckers to let out a barley offended, ~hey now, before the older waitress turned to him with her own “Gene, you and I both know you practically blend in with the chairs. Just eat your hash browns.” before returning to the closest thing she had to a protege. “You ok, sweetie? Got your head in the game?” Even going as far as to brush her hand against Carla’s forehead as if to check for a fever in an almost motherly gesture.
“No, I’m good, I’m fine” Carla reassured herself as much as she did Esther. “Just a little distracted, but I’m still here.”
“Good Solider, here are your marching orders. Go…”
A)…talk to tall dark and leather and find out what he wants
B)…try again with Romeo and Juliet. Looks like Jimmies taking his time and they’ll be here for a while
C)…help Officer Wrigley. And bring napkins, she’s making a big mess
