I pick up the order and rush back to table nine.

"Enjoy your meal, sorry for the wait. "
I say with a fake smile.

I sigh and go pick up the next order.

"Delilah!"
I hear my name being called out.

I turn around and see my boss, Mr. Anderson staring at me with a not so friendly look.

"Uh.. Yes Mr. Anderson, is there a problem?"

He sighs.

"I need you in my office, now."

"Oh. Sure, let me just get this orde-"

"Now Delilah."
He cut me off.

"Okay.. " I mutter.

I follow him through the kitchen and into a small room which he uses as his office.

"Have a seat."
He says as he takes his own.

There's a moment of silence but then I pull back the chair and sit in it.
I swallow my saliva and clear my throat.

"Is something wrong sir?"

Mr. Anderson lays back on his chair and stares at me for a couple of seconds before taking a sip of the coffee on his desk.

He lets out a sigh and finally speaks.

"You're fired."

"What?"

"You can leave your waist apron here."

"B-but.. I don't understand, I'm doing really good, I even work overtime and night shifts"
I complain.

"Any of my waitresses will do that if I just ask them to."
He says and gives me a bored look.

I stay silent, take my waist apron off and leave it on his desk.
He opens a drawer and takes an envelope out.

"Here, this is your last paycheck."
He says and hands it to me.

I count the money.

"This is way less than what I've worked for this month."
I complain.

"Last time I checked, I have the schedule with all your shifts and payments darling so get out before I call the cops."
He says bored.

I'm taken aback by his threat to call the cops on me and stay silent.
I walk out of the café and slam the door behind me.
𝘔𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘶𝘤𝘬𝘦𝘳.

This job was shit anyway.
I was underpaid and working in terrible conditions, maybe I should be the one calling the police on him.
I sigh and unlock the door to my apartment.
I have to start looking for a job again and it isn't gonna be easy.
Luckily, I have already paid rent this month so I have some time before I get 𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘥.
I open my bedroom door and collapse exhausted on my bed.
I really needed to find a job and 𝘲𝘶𝘪𝘤𝘬.
