The Meeting..

The restaurant was closed so early as he walked in. He wondered why. The manger quickly walked in, like the night breeze . Her hair packed in a ponytail. Dressed in a navy blue suit, she looked smarter than usual on her french heels. She turned to his direction and quickly swayed to him with a smile plastered on her face. " Go start your shift already . What are you looking at.". He was looking at her . Drawn to her by her sweet smell and beauty . Who else could he look at when she sway her hips in that short skirt of hers. Manuel gave a sissy smile from the bar that brought him to reality. He quickly rush to the staff room after noticing his colleagues gaze on him. " Get to work , will you ." He heard the manager yelling . The door opened and some one walked in. He quickly took his uniform from his bag .

" Looks like we're expecting an important guest." The most offensive voice spoke and he knew who it belongs to. " Thought you don't like her Ali ? You almost ate her with those eyes and she liked it ya ." Ali almost jumped at him but rather walked in to the dressing room with his black pants and white striped jacket. He walked out few minutes later only to find Manuel struggling with his trousers and groaned. "

He wore the badge that highlights the restaurant name boldly. " COMFY . He breathlessly spelt . " Ain't no COMFY". They both laughed at their superiors choice of name. Manuel finished with his trousers and was buttoning his shirt as Ali walked out. Heads' up as they saw him coming out . Zoe smiled at him . Don't these people have any thing to do with their time instead of gossiping . The whole place was dried . He started with arranging the flowers in the VIP corner since everything seems done. Zoe walked to him ready to leak all their gossip as she usually do .

"Hey ! " She called as He tried to dodge her . " There's no much work today right."

"Good ". He replied as he turned to face what Zoe was staring at.

There they were . All on suit and tie like business men but they weren't. It wasn't the first time there appeared in the restaurant . The last times was with out the girl but there she was with them . Looking like a goddess in a white short sleeveless gown that highlights her curves and long legs . Her long purple hair down . She was far prettier than what he saw on his phone . She was a beauty. She doesn't fit for the position she held . Her sharp eyes reminded him of who she really was . Sweat started to build up inside him . He quickly shifted his gaze as he prayed she didn't see or recognise him. He rush back to the staff room and bumped into Manuel who just finished his smoking ritual in the toilet.

" Hell! Whatch where you are going ." He quickly straightened his clothes as he bent to take his spray bottle. "By the way bro , Why are you covering for Conn' is she good? .

Now that was why he was running from this guy. Manuel was Connie favourite among all the staffs of COMFY restaurant and Ali hates him . He didn't answer him as he enters the toilet to look at his reflection. If Connie was here she 'd pee on her pant. He only hopes the lady doesn't know or recognise him as he wash his face to calm himself. He took the blue scarf in his pocket to tie his head . It didn't change anything. It didn't his the fact that he looked like an half Indian or the greyish eyes he shares with his brother. He let out a loud moan as he failed to conceal his identity. He thought of what his mates would think if it was possible and laughed . They 'd think he was crazy. He quickly walked out after Manuel beckoned on him to help him out with the drinks.

He was sure Hassan never mentioned him to the lady . But he said he didn't mention Connie too. His heart skipped. He tried to calm himself by wearing a calm . Manuel was busy with the drinks . Zoe in the kitchen . Koel and Joel taking orders. The manager seems to be doing everything she could to please her customers. He smiled and went back to his shift ready for anything. He took the tray and carefully dropped the drinks that Manuel gave him on the table . The lady didn't raise her face nor noticed him as she took her drink and sipped. He quietly went back hoping that the night would go well. The had also taken the VIP corner in the garden. The elders seems to be deep in their conversation that made him wondered what was so serious that they could not share with their young ones. He slipped into the counter as he noticed one of their guards approaching his way. The huge guy passed to get something in the corner and walked back. "How did it go ?" Manuel asked with a cocky smile.

"How was it supposed to go ?" Ali asked back Ashe dropped his tray . He wished he was the one attending to the elders so he would listen to their conversations . But Joel , the champ according to their boss was the one taking care of them . No way he could ask him as he took their second round to the table with a frown plastered on his face. Ali wanted to ask him why the strange mood. If he wasn't ok with serving them he could take over but as he turned to the dude the words won't just come out.

He took his own second round as they asked for it and delivered with a calm face again. He noticed the one of the men looking at him with a straight face. The lady said something and they all laughed. Ali walked out to the bar again. Manuel looked up ready to say something and he shut him with an irritating face. "I don't have anything to say to you negro." Ali said disgust hoping it will stop Manuel forever. He saw Joel going to his own table and wanted to stop him but Joel show him a white paper in his hand .
