— ring, ring.

you worked at a maid cafe, minimum wage pay check, annoying colleagues. gosh, even serving others for the customers was exhausting.

but you needed to pay debt, so the debt collectors, a.k.a the mafias won't be selecting you for their next hit list.

and then this one time, five people visited the cafe.

you prepared to deal with whatever average customer wanted, until they weren't what you expected—

Mafioso, the mafia don himself visited. along with his four henchmen, Contractee, Caporegime, Soldier and Consigiliere.

you thought you were dreaming, so you pinched yourself.

you didn't wake up.

so you started off with a simple:

" Hello, uhhh ... what can i get you for you guys? "

" Just four mocaccino's and a raf' will do. "

was all Mafioso said.

you prayed that this would only be a one time visit, because you weren't gonna deal with a whole killing organization in this cafe.

your prayers weren't answered.

at least they didn't visit every single damn shift.

but at some times, you would catch see Mafioso looking at you as you work, there was almost a hint of genuine admiration in his gaze. almost.

you were dreaming, probably.

3:26 PM

you didn't even bother to check the clock once more, every time you checked, the time never changed.

“is that thing broken or something?” you'd think to yourself.

ring, ring.

the door opened, you didn't even bother to look up when sensing the familiar footsteps.

" You know our usuals. "

you simply nodded at Mafioso's voice, but you hear the slightest bit of amiable tone in his voice.

you prepared their orders until you heard Contractee call to you:

" Hey! Boss thinks you're cute by the way!! "

you froze, did he really just say that ...?

you were snapped out of your thoughts when hearing a “SMACK” nearby.

that was probably Soldier telling Contractee to “SHUT UP! DON'T EXPOSE OUR BOSS LIKE THAT YOU NARC.” in the “nicest” way possible.
