Chapter 3- Workaholic

It's 6:00 am, Kevin Fisher opens the doors to Crimson Lights Coffee shop with a cup of coffee in his hand.

He takes a sip tiredly as a couple enters the shop and walks to the counter.

"What can I do for you" the barista asked.

"I'll have a cup of coffee with Milk and whatever the beautiful lady wants" the man said.

The woman giggled giving the man a kiss. "I'll have a Vanilla Latte" the woman said.

The barista nodded. "With skim and only two pumps of Vanilla" the woman finished.

"And a cherry on top" the man said, the woman laughed giving him another kiss.

Kevin sighed, he didn't know if he should smile or barf at the lovesick couple. He shook his head and looked at yesterday numbers.

The couple leaves happily, the barista approaches Kevin.

"The guy gave me a $20 tip, I guess being in love make you wealthy as well" he joked.

"Yea" Kevin said impressed.

"When was the last time you took off Kevin" the barista asked.

"Wow I don't remember, Jake" Kevin said, Michael enters the coffee shop.

"Not surprised that I find you in here" Michael said.

"Double espresso please" he said to the barista.

"Morning Mikey" Kevin said looking at his accountant book.

"You been opening and closing nonstop" Michael said.

"Not closing Mac has been doing that since I'm researching another space for Crimson Lights, it's about time to make it a chain" Kevin said.

"Work and more work little brother you're 26 still young shouldn't you be going out doing young people stuff" Michael asked.

"I'm doing what I like" Kevin said.

"Or maybe doing what you know, you and Scotty should stop working so much go to a club meet some girls" Michael said.

"Been they're done that" Kevin said.

"You need to enjoy life that is all I'm saying" Michael said as the barista gave him his beverage.

"I'll think about it how about that" Kevin said.

"That's all I ask, I'll talk to you later" Michael said, leaving.

Kevin sighed looked back at where the couple was standing, he took a sip of his coffee and went back to work.
