the steps are in the middle of the place for guests and a separate one for waiters and waitresses in the back bear the kitchen.
The wind from the fans blew her hair,"young love.." something in her mind wanted her tO recall someone but her mind wouldnt let her. It was like a lost memory,"second time this week, wonder why I feel like crying." a tear had found its way down her face. The first time was a family eating enjoying one another's company. This time it's her cooks love for the waiter. "I need to take a day off, I'm working too much." she shook the thought off as nothing.
Millie may grabbed the remaining bags wih no complaint,"how did you manage to take this all?" it was heavy and lookEd like baking goods setting them on the back she took them out and in thier proper place. "baking puffs are we? The kids love your white puffs.." a smile spread on her face, the kids and adults alike loved maxines white cloud like puffs. "they taste different everytime. How do you do it?" curious as she leaned on the baking table station as Maxine set up, it was only 5am.
Taking out the needed ingridiants she chuckled,"glad to see your doing alright. I was worried Mill.."
"Ah!" Benny mumbled, "I need more candy. Wonder if Sis might have one..." Opening the cafe doors with both hands Benny saw Millie may and Maxine carrying bags of supplies for the shop. The two girls didn't hear him come in because they were still talking. "...I was worried Mill.." "Morning!" he greeted with a cheerful smile. Millie may and Maxine smiled at him in return. He walked behind the counter, his head barely overpassing the surface and plopped down on a metal stool. "Hey Sis," he said looking at Maxine, his big silver eyes widening. "You got anything sweet on ya? And...why are you worried about Millie? Is she sick or something?"
Millie just smiled at maxine, not wanting to worry anyone wih her odd feelings. "I am fine maxi just was a little under the weather." she hugged Benny stroking his hair motherly like,"your here early today, sleep well?" she felt very motherly around the kid.
Maxi grabbed an application and handed it to her,"just full what you can and then Millie will interview you when your done. Feel free to take a seat." Maxine smiled handing her a pen.
"Your pies are always the best. Do you want some?" asked the boy. Sandy gave him a warm smile, "No thank you, I'm not hungry." She took a seat at one of the tables and started to fill out the paperwork.
"So what's your name," she asked the boy politely.

"So what's your name," she asked the boy politely.
"Thank you...." She said with a slight smile as the kid guessed right. She was absolutely in love with any type of candy. She quickly popped it in her mouth and smiled even more. Maybe this wouldn't be as bad as i thought.... She thought to herself as the boy seemed to calm down the nerves that usually her music or cooking did.
"and yes, You're quite good at guessing candy lovers." She said as she knew introductions were going to have to be said. "My name is Aiko by the way...... Aiko Kutikara....." She sort of felt uneasy as she finished her name. People always picked on her for having a weird last name at school. She quickly tried to shake off the feeling again as she just tried to pay attention to the sweetness of the sucker. Candy really is an amazing thing.
Millie May welcomes the newest girl,"don't look so nervous and smile naturally when you can or they will see its fake..Maxine can show you the ropes as it seems customers have started to arrive,remember nice attire" taking her pad her hair was up somewhat sloppy but greeted him none the less"hello welcome your here early can I get ya something to drink?" a strand of hair fell curling in front of her face she smiled laughing a bit tucking it behind her ear,"sorry there hair is loose, like the decor my late husband and sisters decorated it...before they passed..we have great food and tasty pastries.."
Kaguya made sure it was locked before sliding his pack of cigarettes from his pocket, packing them in and opening it up quickly. He then slid one out and lit it quickly, returning the lighter and pack back into his pockets. He then moved at a moderate pace after lifting his guitar again and moving towards the cafe. A good five minute walk, enough time to see people roaming about there business and for him to smoke his cigarette. He coughed for a second before opening the door. His face showed no change from having a straight face. Kaguya wasn't the type to place a fake smile for anyone, he preferred his smiles to be genuine and real if he were to.
Kaguya immediately noticed that you were to sit yourself and a waitress will come for you. He walked over to a window seat placing his guitar beside him and then sat himself down waiting for someone to take his order as he placed his arm over the table examining those among the room.
Elsewhere Millie took a man water, she looked around a man with a guitar sat at her favorite booth with the park view, she bent down gazin out a smile on her face, a true one."it my favorite spot in the morning, coffee puffs and seeing the wild animals peek out. How can I help you sir, names Millie's run this place."
Benny slid down the wall and curled into a ball. That man was beautiful. he thought, half smiling. Whenever he is near a guy, let alone a good looking one, he always becomes so shy and would blush badly. He looked up from his postion and saw Aiko making lemon tarts. "Aiko," he called to her. "I need to find someone to wait table nine and I can't find Millie or Maxine."

Maxi listened to her carefully and just let her speak, she always let her speak and then cry like always. But this year she had to speak up,say something, anything. She had met Millie some time ago and stumbled across her one day crying here holding onto a bottle, medicine, Millie let her inside her heart and mind and at the moment she felt closer to her. Only she knew and it stayed that way. Maxis eyes wanted to tear up but fought it stroking her stringy hair she loved to play with when they sat on the bed talking about happier topics. Today wouldnt be one of those nights. "mills..I know I just listen but I have to speak." talking a breath Maxine sat her up and looked into her eyes seriously,"I know you say you never were married or had family..but maybe your.." she paused unsure if what she would utter would sound as crazy as she thought it in her mind, the dreams the people he feelings she gets and her emotions the nurturing way she is and the fondness of small kids and babies,"Mills what if your really that girl..you said you woke up in a hospital bed, that the doctors said what they did..maybe they lied. What if you had a family?"
'Family' the word echoed in her head, she knew she was in an accident yes he doctors seemed shady true..but lying to her.."Maxine..." she was about to speak when she forgot and her head pain worsened she stared at maxi she sounded a tad crazy. "no I am sure I am an only child and I would know if I was married I'd be living in the countyside of this town cummuting to work." patting her face softly she smiled weakly but honestly her prior thought forgotten and she didn't take note of it any further as I'd someone tampered with her mind.
Millie looks at her, she wanted the dream to end thats why she endured it every year and let the emotions and feelings flow out. Shaking her head Millie patted her head messing her hair changing the mood,"proper ladies keep themselfs covered, besides it's not sanitary Maxine.." she looked at the ceiling,"I was thinking of letting Benny know too, I see how he worries for me and I hate to see him with that face." she looked to see Maxine's reaction, she nodded in agreement. "...I wouldn't let him see me cry but he will know why I am the way I am. I feel the dream is at its end Maxi, it'll be over soon enuff and I can put this to rest and seek out the family, I know it's like a vision. I think it could be a ghostly presence.."
