Katy's POV
I found out that the regular's name is Kermit. I laughed when he first told me and asked "Like the frog?" He laughed too, saying his parents wanted to be creative. We started hanging out during the day, and he quickly became my guy best friend.
I walked up to Kermit's table.
"What can I get you, Kermie?" I asked.
"Will you stop calling me that?" He asked, laughing. "And my regular."
I smiled and went to tell the cook the order. When I walked back with his order he surprised me with a wrapped present.
"Happy birthday, Katy," he said, handing it to me. Anthony hadn't even gotten me anything.
I opened it and saw a necklace with a pendant shaped like a film camera.
"This is so thoughtful!" I said. "Thank you, Kermit."
"You're going to be a great actress someday."
"Thanks," I said.
After I got off work, Kermit gave me a ride home. He'd always be there 'til closing, which was about 10pm. When I got inside, I took off my apron.
"Did you bring me anything?" Anthony asked.
"Not this time," I said.
"Why not?"
"I didn't have time to get anything."
"What's that?" He asked. I realized the necklace Kermit gave me is still around my neck.
"A present I got at work today," I said. "It's my birthday today, remember?"
"Oh yeah," he said. "Well don't expect anything from me."
"Why would I?" I asked myself. I went to bed.
