Manic was behind the counter, working the register while Sonia was cleaning the restaurant's doors and windows. Sally, Big and Ezekiel were in the kitchen while Sonic was in the office, counting the money they had earned so far today. As everyone was minding their own business, they noticed a Caucasian human enter the restaurant through the west entrance: It was me, the author Alexneushoorn himself!
Manic gasped as he saw me walk up to the counter. "Oh my Gaia, is that you, Alexneushoorn?!" He asked in disbelief.
I chuckled. "Yes, Manic, it's really me. I decided to pay a visit to this place, since I was hungry for some Burger King, and this is one of the few Burger Kings that's the closest to where I live." I explained to Manic.
Manic smiled and nodded. He was so happy to be serving the author of the story he resides in. "Certainly, Alexneushoorn! What would you like?" He happily asked.
"I'll have a Whopper with cheese, 6 Chicken Nuggets with a side of barbecue sauce and a medium King Shake Banana." I replied, placing my order before paying for my food.
Manic smiled and nodded again, printing out my receipt and handing it to me. "Okay, here's your receipt. Come pick up the food when it's done." He told me. I nodded and sat down on a stool as I awaited my food to be prepared.
Once the food was ready, I picked it up and went to sit down at a table in a booth, and began eating. Manic decided to sit down with me, and once Sonia was finished cleaning the doors and windows, she sat down with us as well. "Boy, we sure weren't expecting the author of this story to show up to our Burger King location here at the Lelystad train station." Sonia remarked.
I chuckled as I swallowed a bite of my Whopper. "I love myself some Burger King, but unfortunately, there aren't any Burger Kings in my general area, so I always have to either head down here to Lelystad or up to Groningen to get the sweet Burger King food that I desire." I explained as I continued to eat.
Sonia and Manic nodded. "Say, now that you're here, we've got a few questions about the story that you could possibly answer. Do you have some time for that?" Sonia asked me.
I nodded as I finished my Whopper, wiping my mouth. "Sure. What is it that you would like to know about the story?" I asked.
"Well, what inspired you to write a story about this Burger King restaurant in the first place?" Sonia asked me.
"Well, if you've read the summary of the story, it was inspired by the stories of the legendary Yoshizilla-Rhedosaurus. He's formidable with writing comedy stories, and he has that distinctive South Park-esque toilet humor that is loved by so many people. And no, Yoshizilla-Rhedosaurus isn't paying me to say that." I explained with a chuckle as I began eating my Chicken Nuggets.
Sonia and Manic nodded. "Did you know that an actual Lelystedeling read this story?" Manic then asked me.
I nodded. "I'm aware. They've even asked me if I'm a Lelystedeling myself, and I'm not. I actually live in the neighbouring province of Friesland, and as I've said, I like to visit the Burger King down here in Lelystad because it's one of the closest Burger Kings near where I live. Honestly, it's kinda sad I have to go to either Lelystad or Groningen to get some good Burger King food, but until a Burger King opens in Friesland, I don't have much of a choice." I explained.
Sonia and Manic nodded again. "Well, we're really grateful for you starting this story, because we enjoy many good times here at Burger King. Also, we owe you one for getting Shadow in jail. So thanks for that." Sonia said before giving me a kiss on the cheek, causing me to blush. Manic couldn't help but chuckle at that.
"Anytime, guys. I try to make things as comfortable as possible for you guys here at Burger King." I replied as I finished my Chicken Nuggets and began drinking my King Shake Banana.
Manic nodded. "I can see that. Well, it was great talking to you for a bit, Alexneushoorn. Do come visit again some time." He replied back.
"Oh, I will, Manic. Don't worry about that." I replied with a smile.
"Okay. Well, we gotta get back to work. Enjoy the rest of your day." Manic said as him and Sonia got up and went back to work.
"You too." I replied again as I continued drinking my King Shake Banana.
