You and Cory had met through your cousin, Erik. Or as he liked to be called, Byte. You had baked brownies and decided "Hey, I think Erik and his friends would like this!" And they did. So now youre permanently cemented in their lives.
You would stop by their alleyway to bring sweets and gifts before heading off to work. You worked in a Brazilian restaurant just down the street, so it was no biggie.
What you didnt know, is that Cory frequented this spot. You had only just started as a server, after all. He loved the place due to the fact hes constantly homesick. Brings him back to the good old days when he'd hang with his sisters and brothers in the beautiful rainforest and townships in Brazil.
So one day, you had just clocked in. Your coworker had informed you that you had a one-top at 23, so you made your way over to the table with pen and pad in hand.
You stop dead in your tracks when you see HIM. He giggled softly and blinked up at you with those big ol eyes of his. "Hey mami. Since when do you work here, huh?"
