"Well hello and welcome back! What can get you this evening?" the waitress asked as she quickly walked up to the booth. "Thanks, I'll have..." Iris paused, hesitating for a second. "I'll just have a cup of coffee." "Alright, I'll be right back with your order!" the waitress responded adding a slight nod and walked away. Iris pushed the helmet, which she had placed in the middle of the table earlier, off to the side. Slouching back in her seat, she let her legs stretch out and tried to take at least one calming deep breath. Today had been another long day in the city. First, there was that pointless job interview. When cash was starting to run low, thats when she typically looked for work. A part of her wanted that feeling of security, knowing what tomorrow would hold. But on the other hand, she really didn't care for such a predictable lifestyle. It was monotonous and mechanical to her. Secondly, she was pretty sure - Iris sat back up and looked out the window. Her eyes briefly checking the lot and the road. - someone was following her earlier. The waitress was on her way back. She placed the cup and saucer down. Before leaving, she informed her customer: "If you need anything else, just let me know." Iris replied with a "thank you" then glanced around. There was a man sitting at a table, across the room, drinking something. He seemed to be minding his own business and this put her somewhat at ease. Iris took a couple of sweetener packets from the tray at the table. Tearing off the tops, she emptied them into her cup, then stirred the coffee with the mini straw. She took a quick sip then reached for her backpack. Unzipping one of the front pockets, she rummaged through whatever was in there, then took out a pen. Iris took a napkin from the tray as well and stared to mindlessly doodle, while trying to figure out who might be after her - if that was the case. Spoiler: click to toggle
