“But we’re closing the diner. You’re going to have to leave.” Back in Chicago, this sort of thing wouldn’t fly. For one, I’d never worked at a diner back in Chicago. No, I was a dignified indie quality-assurance tester at a game development studio back in the Windy City. We didn’t get pop-ins from strange-looking men unless they were some artsy, bohemian voice recorders. The closest Rapid Falls had to a game development studio was a store that sold pirated PlayStations and Xboxes at half the market price with all the big games pre-installed. Between that and the only other job opening in this town, I decided to be a waiter at Pablo’s Diner. A girl needed to earn.

Zach had shown him a photo of the list of his usual date spots so he did know what to avoid when they did eventually go out somewhere. Zach rolled the dice and Darien sat down on the other side of the coffee table and told himself to stop worrying about everything. Darien focused on the game and soon forgot about the current paparazzi situation. He found himself eating the sweets when the board game became intense. Zach had a clear advantage over him so he needed to play his best. Zach won the first game despite Darien’s best efforts. “Did you want to play a different game or have another go at this one?” the intern questioned without meeting his eyes.

Casper Sullivan tried to keep a straight face as he sat at the dinner table with his family. His heart was pounding in his chest, and he knew that something was going to happen that would change everything. He took a sip of his wine, trying to calm his nerves, but it didn't help.

"I thought it would be nice for all of us to get together."

“Yes, a proposition.” “What sort of proposition?” “A proposition that allows this restaurant to stay open,” my throat was dry and I knew the words were just a dolled-up threat. There was danger in his tone, “I propose that to make up for the burning of my food, the less than stellar service and the potential harm that could have been caused to me and your other patrons. In order for you to prevent me from contacting the health and safety officer of this county, I propose that you work for me.”

They watched as it reduced to ashes with its embers glowing and reflecting light upon their faces—and their fears *** MICKEY, ISA, AND AGATHA sat on the farthest booth away from the people in a crowd-less diner somewhere near Occam Park. The diner was an old, renovated shipping container with galvanized walls and linoleum flooring. A 40-something woman with rolled-up hair and heavily blushed cheeks came up to them donning an apron and with a notepad in hand. “Anything?” she soullessly asked. “A double quarter pounder for me please and a side of spiced up fries,” replied Isa. “Vegan Frankenstein burger for me,” replied Agatha. “Just a mayonnaise sandwich,” uttered Mickey.

Jeremy led her inside and they quickly joined the group that had arrived minutes before. Hae Mina slid onto the booth. Jeremy slid beside her. Kyung Jiho sat across from Jeremy and Cass sat across from her. Yang Dae-Su sat at the head of the table, and Duskin sat at the base of the table. Hae Mina looked around at the large diner and began to wonder about its name. "Why's it called The Maid's Diner?"

“Smart choice.” This place was in the middle of nowhere. A dusty, two-room diner miles from anything. They had no need to stock a full pantry. The thought didn’t make me less hungry, though. While we waited, I picked up the beverage menu again. Two whole pages of drinks. I studied the soda list like it was a complex map. I didn’t want to look up. Across the table, Tristan finally looked excited. He’d found the free Wi-Fi, pulled out his tablet, and was already deep into a video game. His eyes had that bright, focused shine. He was completely checked out from the adult tension.

"Everybody wants to play the game, except for you. Is just a game and nothing more. She voiced out and i felt a little embarrassed. " come on daisy! Kelly nudged me again." I took a quick breath. Is just a game daisy; you can do this." I assured myself. " Okay am in." I voiced out "Hey! What's your name? A boy asked the girl standing. " Call me Tala." She said and tore a piece of paper from a book on the table. So am going to give a brief summary on how the game is. The rules are, you will pay a certain amount to any question you fail to answer. Or play a dare if you don't have the money." She said and i felt scared about the whole thing. Oh heavens!

Normal people doing normal things. She wanted normal. "Take me to the diner," she said. "I want to see you eat pancakes." Nick smiled. "Pancakes?" "You've never had diner pancakes. It's a crime." "I've had pancakes." "Not diner pancakes. There's a difference." Nick turned the wheel. "Fine. But if I don't like them, you're eating my share." "Deal." --- The diner was small and crowded and smelled like bacon and coffee. Nick stood in the doorway, looking overwhelmed. The booths were red vinyl. The floor was checkered tile.
