A thin woman sat aboard a small stool. Smoke billowed out of the
fireplace, hissing with protest as the woman stirred the musky colored
liquid that was held in the pot.
Her green eyes gazing quietly at the broth as it swirled around the wooden
spoon hissing and spitting.
"Is the broth ready?" A short and plump woman asked fearfully, her light blue eyes pleading into the thin woman's green eyes.
"Alicia you don't need to be so hasty, the broth will be ready when it wants to be." She said calmly eyes gazing calmly up at Alicia's light blue.
"Maggie! Judith wants it now; she wants it for some important costumers or something." Alicia said, plopping herself into a soft gray chair and stared at Maggie willing the broth to hurry up.
"Alicia. I chose who to give the broth to, not Judith. She can kiss my buttocks." Said Maggie huffily. Alicia snorted with laughter, tucking her short brown hair behind her ears.
"I haven't seen buttocks used since, well forever. All people use nowadays is ass."
"Arse please Alicia. You know how I feel about those dreaded curse words." Maggie said curtly.
"Oh Maggie your so -" Alicia whirled around as the door was banged open, a skinny Chinese woman stood there, black hair falling out of her tight bun and brown eyes flashing with anger.
"Alicia! I thought you told Maggie, to get the BROTH READY!" screamed the woman. Alicia's eyes flashed with fear and she began stuttering a foot load of nonsense.
"Judith I quit." The woman named Judith spun around, long black slipping out that annoyingly perfect bun.
"As does Alicia, we are going to work at a place called the Dot. Good day to you Judith we expect our last paycheck tomorrow on our doorsteps." Maggie said standing up, slipping on a pair of mitts; she pulled out the pot and began walking towards the door.
"Alicia come." Alicia gave one last look at the thunderstruck Judith and hurried out the restaurant with Maggie.
"Was that wise?" Maggie smiled, "Yes it was." The to friends walked away with grins aboard there faces.
