Customer

She stopped mid-stride when she saw him; the most beautiful man she had ever seen in her entire twenty and a half years of life. He was absolutely breath taking. Long, blackish brown hair pulled back into a ponytail at the nap of his neck. The most mysterious yet beautiful pale eyes she had ever seen. He had a very lean, but toned build and he was quite tall, significantly taller than she was.

She watched as he passed by, taking a seat at one of the open booths in the small café, already reading the menu that they offered. She swallowed hard. Should she go over and take his order or leave it to someone else who wouldn't trip up on their words because of how beautiful he was?

"He's beautiful right," a female voice said from her side causing the bun wearing young woman to glance over. It was a good friend of hers, Ino. "Are you going to go over and take his order or just leave him sitting there waiting, TenTen?" Ino place her hands on her hips as she irked a brow, "He is the customer you know and I'm not working the floor today. Your parents so graciously assigned me the task of kitchen duty for the day otherwise I would go take his order."

The other, TenTen nodded before pulling her notepad and pen from her apron pocket, cutting through the somewhat crowded café to where the beautiful stranger sat waiting. Clearing her voice to gain his attention, she spoke, "Good morning, welcome to Ito's. I'm TenTen and I'll be your waitress for your visit. Have you decided on anything yet or would you like a little help?"

The pale eyed stranger glanced up at her, nodding his head, "Yes I have decided actually."

TenTen had to swallow the lump in her throat before she placed her pen to her pad and smiled, "And what can I get for you today?"

"Can I have an iced coffee with milk," he said looking down at the page of the menu he held opened, "And a Bacon & Gouda Artisan Breakfast Sandwich?"

TenTen was writing as he spoke before she glanced up again only to see that he was still looking down, "And what size would you like your coffee to be?"

"A tall," he answered not bothering to look up again.

The young woman smiled, nodding her head, "Alright that'll be right out for you."

He nodded, watching from the corner of his eye as she walked away before turning his attention to his cellphone that was sitting on the table.

It wasn't long before the bun haired young woman returned with his order, placing it down in front of him before turning to tend to another customer as she called over her shoulder, "Enjoy."

…

TenTen returned about twenty minutes later to check on the man. She saw that his entire order was already gone so she smiled, "Is there anything else I can interest you in?"

The man glanced up from his phone and shook his head, "The bill is all."

"Then I'll be right back with that for you," TenTen said as she cleared the dishes from the table and turned to walk away as he was pulling his wallet from his pocket.

After depositing the dishes in the kitchen, TenTen collected his bill before heading back to where he was sitting. Placing the receipt down, she then turned to tend to another customer that called for her attention.

The man placed the necessary money down to cover the bill as well as a tip for the bun haired woman and a small card beneath it before he stood and left.

After doing what it was she needed to do, she returned to the table to see the stranger gone. Blowing her bangs out of her face, she picked up the money for the bill and her tip before a small card caught her attention.

She picked it up, reading what it said.

Neji Hyūga

Hyūga Corp.

678-331-2984

She grinned, tucking the card and her tip in her pocket before going to turn in the money to the register. Sometimes it paid to work as a waitress at her parents' café every so often.
