With Coffee
Chapter 1
"Excuse me miss, but I've been waiting for about ten minutes for my drinks." A lady dressed in a black suit said tapping her foot impatiently on the wooden floor of the cozy little coffee house.
Behind the counter, a young woman with red hair squirted a small amount of caramel into a steaming hot drink that she was making with one hand and with the other, she busily placed lids on the drinks that she'd already finished.
"Miss! I real-"
Cutting the impatient lady off, Sora grouped the five drinks together and placed them into a carrier, "one caramel macchiato, soy mocha, hot chocolate, white chocolate mocha with coconut flavoring, and a pumpkin spiced latte."
"Finally." The lady muttered, carrying the drinks off.
'Fine, don't tip me.' Sora thought bitterly before starting on the next couple drinks.
"Sora, you really need to work it a little faster!" An overweight man in his forties said scribbling the name of the drink on a cup that was about twentieth in line for Sora to make.
"Get another worker, have you thought about that Boss!" The stressed red head said, finishing up three more drinks, "one latte, an iced raspberry mocha and white hot chocolate!" People hurried ran up to the counter to claim their drinks.
"Every time I hire someone I get requests for you to make the drinks anyways! So its like paying an extra body if I get a new worker."
"…I need a new job." Sora muttered glancing quickly over at the clock, 'thank god, only ten more minutes until the rush dies down…'
And almost miraculously, it did die down. The crowd of about sixty people in the coffee house dispersed and only about twenty remained.
"Boss, I think I smell burning." Sora pointed out as she cleaned the counter with a newly washed rag.
"Gosh darn! Miyako! Are you letting the scones burn again!"
"Sorry boss, I got a call from my boyfriend." The lavender haired 23-year-old said quickly rushing to the large oven and taking outthe large tray of tiny scones that cost about four dollars apiece.
"Do you think I care!"
"Gosh Boss, calm down before you pop a vein." Sora said making a caramel apple cider drink for a customer while grinning cheekily at her boss.
"Shut up, you!" He stretched, "I'm going to go take a break and count my money. Have fun working girls."
Sora couldn't get mental image of punching him out of her head as he went to the back to most likely just sleep. Sheleaned against the counter yawning as Miyako restocked the food display with her delicious looking pastries that all had about a stick of butter in them.
"How's it going with Ken?" The red head asked taking a sip of warm milk that she'd just heated for herself.
"Great! You have no idea how much I owe you Sora, seriously! I want to, like, just-"
"Have wild beast sex with him?" Miyako turned tomato red at what her friend had said.
"You've got to be kidding me! Why are you so perverted!" She asked swinging the large tray that once held her scones at Sora. Quickly realizing that the tray could knock her head off her neck, Sora took a couple steps back from her friend.
"I was just kidding," Sora said enjoying the flustered look oh Miyako's face. With the small ding, the front door to the coffee house opened. "Look who it is! Miyako and I were just talking about you!"
Not bothering to greet her boyfriend, Miyako dashed into the back to cool down her burning cheeks. Smiling to herself Sora congratulated herself on a job well done.
"What's wrong with Miyako?" The confused young man asked as he set down five dollars on the counter.
"It'd be easier to tell you what isn't wrong with her." Sora said jokingly as she put the bill into the cash register. Picking up a medium sized cup from her left, she quickly made Ken a nice warm mocha.
"That's enough Sora Takenouchi!" Miyako said, bringing out another tray of croissants. Miyako snuck a peek at her confused boyfriend and quickly colored again, Sora just smirked. Then thetwo quickly left to go to their university like they did every morning andSora was left alone by herself up front to make drinks for the customers that came in. Likeany otherday.
The morning passed…then the afternoon passed and it was night. Unlike other days where she would have been home by seven, Sora had been bribed to stay a couple more hours that day. What was she bribed by? Money of course!
"I bet he left his kids at school on purpose because he wanted me to suffer." Sora muttered.
Giving a quick glance around the coffee house, Sora realized that there were no customers and promptly turned on the TV to see the scores for the soccer game against Brazil and Manchester. She grinned to herself when she saw that her long time friend Taichi had scored the winning goal for England for a final score of 3: 2.
Sora indulged herself in the replays of the game when the door opened.
"I'll be with you in just a minute." Sora called tearing her eyes away from the TV and heading over towards the counter, "how may I help you…uh, sir?"
The red head stared at the man who'd just entered as if he were crazy as she watched himcheck every corner of the coffee house, the seats, the lights, the floor, the counters and even the area behind the counters.
"Excuse me, you aren't allowed back there and if you don't have drinks that you want I'm going to have to ask you to leave."
"Is the owner here?" the man asked pulling out a wallet.
"He's out for the moment. Is there a message I can take?" Sora stared as the man slid over a business card over to her. Curiously, she picked it up.
"I'm the location director for this new movie that going to be staring Mimi Tachikawa and Yamato Ishida. I've heard numerous amounts of good things about this coffee house and I've decided that this would be the best place to film essentials part for the movie in, and I've just personally come to ask if we could borrow this café for the shootings." He explained.
At a loss of words Sora picked up her phone, "...uh...hold on a second, let me call my boss."
Fat Joe, Sora's nickname for her boss, picked up on the second ring andafter she'd explianed what had happened shecould have sworn hearing him cry on the other line.
"Do you know that kind of publicity it would bring to this place!" He asked excitedly, "Sora, who'd you say that the actors were again?"
She paused for a second to remember the names, "Mimi Tachikawa and…Yamato Ishida?"
"Tell him its a deal!" He yelled and quickly snapped his phone shut.
"Uhm, he says its a deal."
