The doors swung open welcoming a tide of customers. Naveen went up to the hostess, or in this case host's platform. The first couple, a rich and lavishly dressed couple and asked for a table for 2. The next Two panicked parents and their 4 kids.

"Table for 6 please." she said.

"Right this way." Naveen said to the family.

The day went on well, gathering meager tips to the lavish tips of 5 or even 10 dollars. By break time they were still working with at least 20 parties remaining. Tiana looked at the crew, were doing well, you guys can take breaks,

"I'll keep working, and you guys can work while I take mine, deal?" Tiana said to the staff.

"Well m'am, that wouldn't be real fair to you, now would it?"A blackened cook said to Tiana. "No m'am, I cannot follow that order, I'll work with you right though break."

Tiana's face lit up. "You will? Oh thank you Louise! If we have any money after this productive day, you'll get a plenty big allowance." She said as she did a little clap.

2 more cooks and Naveen volunteered to help while the others ate, then they would switch.

Tiana grabbed a plate of food and started to serve, going so fast many of the customers didn't even notice she had been there until they saw their food. Louis played his horn in the upbeat diddy of "St. Louis Blues", making the audience clap to the beat. As she did a little twirl, caught up in the rhythm of the beat.

She sat down for a few minuets taking a short break in between meals. Naveen sat beside her. "How'd we do?"

"With what?"

"The money of course. I want to know if we can keep this place. We've worked so hard and want to see you happy, let's see the cash."

A chef brought out the stack of money, mostly in nickels and dimes of course. A few dollar bills and even a 5 dollar tip!

Tiana started to count, carefully putting the money in stacks. "20, 50, 100..." Tiana counted to her self.

"Don't worry if we don't make it yet, we still have dinner, that's when the best tips are." Naveen said to Tiana as she counted.

She sat back in her chair with a sigh, "we have $625.96 so, unless we bet 375 dollars tonight, were doomed."

"Never say doomed, theirs always hope."

"Yea, I guess." She said as she sighed again and leaned back in her chair. It was getting dark and the dinner party was soon to be here.

Ok, sorry I keep drawing this out, I'm trying to figure out how this will end, weather to make them short or have some kind of miracle happen. Who knows. You can suggest what should happen, or review, what ever you like!!!
