Tipping can lead to other things
Summary: Kagome is a waitress at a local cafe called La Shea' cafe'....
She was just a normal everyday person...
she never dreamed of becoming different but then all of a sudden a new
person arrives into her life when a new costumer comes in and leaves
Kagome two things....A extremely large tip,and a address.
She decided to take the address and thank the man.
Suddenly,everything in her life is going to turn upside down.
Her life was no longer normal anymore....
It was the middle of may where the cherry blossoms fell every year.
It was in the streets of Tokyo,Japan where one petal fell.Cars sped
by without even the notice of these beautiful plants,it was a normal
everyday thing.Not to Kagome Higurashi.She was going to be
changed at this very moment in time.Let me take you back in time,
to that morning.Kagome sat in a booth of the famous cafe La Shea'.
A french cafe' in a foreign country was something to acknowledge.
She sat in the same booth that she had sat in for the four months
that she had been there."Higurashi,breaks over,table 6!!!"The manager
yelled to her.She sighed as she sat the magazine onto the refined table
and rose up,but not before giving the manager a nasty glance.She
popped the gum that was in her mouth and turned her body to go in
the direction of the table.Mr. and Mrs.Kushu,were sitting the same
exact booth as the day before this,and the day before that,and so forth.
It was daily routine.Nobody changed there whole routine here,it was
too much of a burden to even bother with.Kagome sighed and turned
to them.She smiled and said,"Good morning Mr. and Mrs.Kushu,will
you have the same as yesterday and the day before that?"Kagome
smiled at them and wrote down the orders in her head,that she knew
all too well."Yes Kagome,you know us too well now don't you."
Mrs.Kushu said.Kagome smiled and exclaimed,"Well,I've been your
waitress for at least two months now." "Yes that is true."Mr.Kushu
whispered to himself."I'll be right back with your order,ok?"
She asked. "Ok."They said simultaneously.She turned on her heel
and walked to the kitchen.When she entered the aroma of cocoa beans
and grinded coffee beans filled her nose.She loved that smell.The
only reason she loved working here.She sighed non-chalantly.
"God I love the smell of coffee in the morning." She whispered to
no one in particular.She walked over to the mixer and said,"
Freshly brewed coffee,two sugars,one lump."The mixer nodded
quietly."And,a frappiccino,stirred not shaked,with a gourmet stirring
spoon as a touch of delicacy."Kagome explained ot the mixer who
nodded,this time with a smirk appearing on the side of her cheeks.
Kagome smiled at her and then turned on her heel and walked out.
As she walked out of the kitchen,she saw the door open and a
figure appeared and sat in the booth next to Mr. and Mrs.Kushu.
His hair was surprisingly the color of winter snow,glistening in the
light.He was wearing a black coat,seemed kinda mysterious.She
turned her view to Mr. and Mrs.Kushu who were chatting about
this new creature who had come into their view.Someone that
was not from the ordinary everyday life that most of them were
from.He was somewhat different then anybody she had ever seen
in these parts of Tokyo.He must have noticed that she was staring
cuz he turned slowly to come face to face with her.She stiffened,
she was somewhat embarassed for staring.She knew she was always
told not to stare,that it was impolite,but he was like a car crash.
You wanted to look away,but you couldn't.She stood there,standing,
like she was in mid-air,gazing at his beautiful electrifying eyes.
They were the strangest color she had ever seen,even more different
from his silvery,white hair.She blushed when he smirked at her.
She turned quickly and sped into the kitchen.She breathed heavily.
He was gorgeous,abosolutely gorgeous.She hated that she couldnt'
take her eyes off of him.The mixer was glancing at her like she was
some kind of pedophile.Kagome smiled big,while sweatdropping.
The mixer seemed to have understood what she was all in a bunch
about cuz she sighed and nodded her head,holding the drinks for
Kagome to take to the Kushu's.Kagome took it bowing her head
as she did.She trailed out of the kitchen door,the door swinging
from behind her.She walked over to the table and place the drinks
onto the place it was intiatly suppose to be.Kagome held the
carrier and bowed to the couple saying,"I hope you enjoy the rest
of your stay here." The couple graciously bowed to her as well,
saying,"Thank you my dear young one."She turned on her heel
once again and held her breath,her next table was the drop dead
gorgeous guy.She sighed nervously and slowly walked over to
his table.She sighed yet again and happily said,"Hello and welcome
to La Shea' cafe,what would you like?"The mysterious yet utterly
hot guy smirked at her and answered,"I would like a frappocino and
a little french croissant."She smiled at him,not noticing the fact that
she was probably turning blue,holding her breath like she was.
"Ok,coming right up."She turned around and released her breath,
which noticed that she was holding finally,and darted into the
kitchen,hoping she did not make a full of herself in front of that
nice guy.Later on when the mixer had finished the drinks,Kagome
brought them out to a empty table.Kagome stared curiously at
the vacant table."Where the hell did he go?"Kagome asked herself
silently."He left not long ago my dear."She heard Mr.Kushu say to
her whisperingly.Kagome looked down at the table and noticed
that there was something on the table.Two things actually,a
extravagant tip that she knew was not needed,and a peice of notebook
paper that had on it an address."520 Cherry Blossom Drive."Kagome
whispered to herself.She finished her shift in a matter of minutes,so
she jumped into the nearest taxi and explained it to the rather
annoying,and obnoxious driver.He seemed to miss every other word,
which made her very aggitated.She would groan and urrs and growls
would commence when he said "Did you say that a can came to the
cafe you worked at and gave you a really big tip?"Kagome's hand
would fly to her forehead and she would continue to hit it everytime
he said something that didn't even sound right in a sentence.
They arrived at the address about 15 minutes after explaining the
story at least seven times.She stepped out,paying the driver the
amount of money asked for.She stared at the huge house that
she stood in front of."What the hell?"She whispered to herself.
She walked up the stairs carefully,seeing as how she had to
wear high-heels to work.It was something that was what the
manager called dresscode.You were fired the 2nd day you didn't
follow the dresscode.Kagome hadn't followed it for about 6 days
and the manager didn't say anything to her,but the next day her
best friend Kikyou was fired for not following it.The manager
called it a dresscode violation.Kagome snorted,it sounded like
something you heard in middle school.As she reached the door
she noticed the detail that was encrypted in the door handle.
It was extrodinary to look at.She held the knocker in one hand
and stared at the huge door that stood before her.She knocked
on the door gently,hoping not to make the person inside to mad.
She knew that she would be pretty pissed if someone knocked on
the door really loud and continuesly,that would just send her through
the roof.The door opened in a matter of seconds with a butler
standing there awaiting her coat."We've been expecting you."
He whispered to her.She stiffened slightly before handing him her
coat and walked toward the living quarters.She glared at the room,
she hated it.It had deer's heads on the wall,bucks,does,anything,you
name it was mounted on that wall."Do you like it?"Asked the man
she remembered as the gorgeous guy in the cafe.She hated him for
what he had done to the poor animals that were plastered on that
wall."No I don't,I would call it animal cruelty,I hate it."Kagome
told him flat out no."What's not to like about it?"He asked
vigorously."I just don't like it alright,why do you care?"She asked
pissed off.He scowled,he wanted to remark but knew if he did he
could kiss goodbye what he was about to ask her to do.
"I came to tell you that,thank you for the extreme tip,but I'm sorry,
I can't accept it,I did nothing,I shouldn't get a tip at all."She told him.
"Aww,but I will give you that tip,if you do something for me."
He said.Kagome winced for a second."What?"She asked hesistantly.
"Kagome,you are a very beautiful person,and you seem to be the
type who needs to be on the cover of the magazine I own.Have you
ever heard of Vogue?"He asked her.Kagome's expression showed
that she was astonished."V...Vogue?!!!"She breathed out."Yes,vogue,
and I was wondering if you would like to become my new model,we
need a new one,seeing as we just lost a model." He explained.
"Oh I'm sorry,did see die?"She asked with pity."No,she went on
maternity leave,but anyway,you seem perfect."Kagome sweatdropped
but decided that she would have to think about it.He told her
everything about the life of modeling,the fun,the fame,the gifts,but
she knew he was leaving something out of it,something she needed
to know about."What's the catch,dude?"She asked insolently.
He leered."Well,you will have to leave your job at the cafe,and
you have to stay under the weight of 105."Kagome stared,lost in
frustration."105 pounds!!!" "What do you want me to become
anorexic?!!"Kagome yelled at him."No no no...just don't eat
too much,how much do you weight?"He asked her."I weight 98
pounds."She exclaimed."Whoa,that's really good,you got awhile
until you would have to leave the force,you have to excerise
everyday,and eat good." "Ok,please stop telling me what to do,
you aren't and don't look like my mother."Kagome scowled.
"So what do you say,would you like to be a member of vogue?"
He asked her anxiously.Kagome sighed."......Yes......"
He grinned."Why do I feel like I'm being conned?!"Kagome
said to herself.
