you are new in town, you moved because you almost got exposed for being a mermaid/merman

*you walked into the 'ocean cafe' in hopes of getting job there, to prove you can take care of yourself

(timeline when David almost had to closed the cafe becasue his brother wanted to sell it, remember that episode)

as you walked in the cafe, you went to the counter and spoke to David, as Carly was talking to Zac and his friends (Evie, Cam, Mimmi, Ondina, Weilan)
