Sebastian found himself wasting a few hours away playing around in an arcades downtown in the tourist area. He was just running out of ways to amuse himself, after all you can only play so many rounds of pinball before you start to become a bit cross eyed. He also began to grow hungry. It was nearly four o'clock, his parents would be home until later and so they wouldn't be eating until around 8. Family dinners were usually not optional, but since it was the weekend, he had the evening to himself. It was nice to be able to do what he wanted to for the night but it also left him to fend for himself. He knew Allie's caretaker would provide her with food and was sanctioned to stay until the time their parents arrived home anyway so he decided he would just stay out for a while longer and simply find something eat amongst his travels.
He decided to go back to his favourite little diner. Not only because he loved the food but he also wanted to see the girl he'd met again. She intrigued him, and he couldn't help but wonder why she would be working in that diner. It was usually just staffed by two or three older women, usually around their late forties. He'd never seen them have more than one waitress on at a time and he'd never seen anyone around his own age there. He only ever saw them working in faster paced restaurants, fast food chains or in the tourist area downtown.
He drove his car back to the diner, taking the longer way their to kill time and because the surroundings were much nicer down the less traveled back roads near the beach. He arrived there just after five and parked in one of the many empty spots. It was around most people's dinner time and the place was still practically dead. He attributed this to how their primary clientele were elderly and ate dinner earlier in the afternoon or families going out for breakfast or brunch. He strolled back through the front door, the little bell jingling at his presence. He took a seat in the booth he'd sat in that morning and once again fiddled with his cellphone.
