November 4th

"Take this to table 3" Mikaela-my coworker- instructs me. It's now Tuesday and I'm finishing my shift at the diner.

It's been a few days, 4 to be exact, since Halloween. Things have pretty much gone back to normal, and by normal I mean that Roman and I are not on speaking terms.

Actually, that's a lie. He's not a total asshole to me anymore but he still ignores me.

sad.

not really. It doesn't bother me that he doesn't talk to me but I would be lying if I said it didn't get to me at times.

"Here you go, enjoy," I say with a smile.

A smile. My face is probably going to get stuck like this but quoting Mikaela, 'it's the most important asset to this job', end quote.

I hear the bell chime and watch the guys walk in. "I got it," I tell Jonah, another coworker.

"Hey, guys. What can I get you?"

"What time are you off?" Dean asks

"Uh-" I check my apple watch "eight minutes to be exact to if you could give me your order it would make things so much easier for me," I say with a sweet smile that's not forced.

"Okay okay, but after this, you're going to the carnival with us, no ifs whats or buts."

I sigh. I don't want to go but I know there's no way I'm getting out of this.

"Fine, now what do you guys want?"

"I'll just get a chocolate donut."

"Asher?"

"Slice of red velvet cake."

"Roman?"

no response.

"Do you want something Roman?"

no response.

I go to ask him one more time but he interrupts me before I can do so, "I heard you the first time."

"He speaks. If you heard me the first time then you could've answered." I roll my eyes at him and walk back to grab Asher and Dean's orders. I cut the cake and place it on a cake. I also grab the donut and place it on another plate.

Before heading back I take off the apron and grab my things.

"Hey Jonah, I'm off."

"See you, you tomorrow Kai."

I place the plates on the table and take a seat next to Roman.

"Dig in boys. Also is it just me your forcing to go to the carnival or is anyone else joining my torture?"

"Nope. Do you think Roman would agree to come on his own? We had to practically force him but he didn't put up much of a fight once we told him y- ouch!" Dean got cut off by Roman kicking him under the table.
