Chapter 4 His waitress

"Whoa, there are lots of places to deliver these to," Kimberly remarked as she gaped at the full van. There were hordes of packaged burgers and others.

"Nah. We're only delivering to one place, " Peter her co worker explained closing the van. He is one of the delivery guys.

Kimberly became curious. "And that is?"

"Hey!" A hoarse voice startled them as they turned in unison. The van driver was already seated."get in, chop chop. Let's get going, there are still more boxes."

Kimberly and Peter rushed in hurriedly to avoid incurring his wrath. That's Mr Bray, he likes speeding things up.

As they got in, several other vans already left. Theirs were to take it to a particular place.

Kimberly found a seat beside Sam and they were about to drive when the van was stopped. "What now," Kimberly muttered as the assistant manager came to the van driver.

"Oh Kim, boss needs you," Mr Bray called and she gulped s bit.

"Me?" She asked scurrying out.

The van left while she was left with Julia, his assistant. "Oh you'll be serving, not delivering today," Julia explained staring at Kim's puzzled face.

"Really?" Kimberly was astounded.

"Yeah, all you have to do is take orders"-her smile widened-" starting with table five."

That was weird. Why called to serve and why specifically table five? "Why table five?" Kimberly inquired curiously.

Julia smiled at her." Boss wants you to serve today," Julia said purposefully vague. She was avoiding her question.

Then, cheekily,

"Someone had requested for you to serve him," Julia whispered confidentially.

Kimberly's eyes bulged out in surprise. Oh God! Who? She became restless. "Who? Oh come on, who?" She asked plaintively.

But Julia smiled walking away. " Hurry, let's go,"

As they walked in through the back door, Kimberly was given some instructions and a book to take down his orders.

Her mind was whirling fast. Too fast. Who wanted to meet her? Julia wasn't specific about the gender. It could be a She. Maybe Julia is just messing with her. Boss simply wants her to serve today and so she's trying sound enigmatic and mysterious. Right?

Kimberly couldn't bear the suspense and rushed to table five.

She froze.

She could see him wearing his feathery jacket and staring at his phone like an addicted teenager.

And as quickly as she rushed to him, that's how quickly she rushed back to the kitchen. Her heart was beating faster than normal. That darned CEO.

Now Julia's words registered. Nate had requested for her to be his waitress. That punk! How dare he do this to her? Ever since last night, meeting him after five months, he's now showing up.

It would've been a coincidence if he didn't ask for her to serve him. Seriously this guy is annoying. If he hasn't gotten over last night juice problem then he better do.

Why does his presence keep haunting her. And the worst part is she has to serve him.

"Taken any order?" Kimberly was asked and she shook her head.

"I'll do it right now," she muttered slowly and walked up to him, finally.

"What do you want?" She asked rather brusquely.

He ignored her still focusing on his phone. He pretended not to have heard her.

Kimberly scoffed, wondering if she do something about this? But what exactly?

"May I take your order, Sir?" She forced herself to say when she spotted Julia from afar.

Nate smirked. "I thought you had no manners"

Kimberly lost it. " Listen up you brute! Why did you ask for me?" She whispered furiously.

"What was that?" He said loudly.

Immediately everyone stopped to look at her.

He stood up immediately." You're seriously flirting with me!" He smacked his hand in the table for dramatic effect.

Kimberly was aghast. She gaped at him. What! " I wasn't!" She fired with a snarl.

What is he doing? He wants to embarrass her or what? That's exactly what he wants to do! He's so unbelievable! And this is embarrassing as hell. Kimberly was acutely aware of stifled laughs around her. She gritted her teeth.

"I asked for a meal, can't you get it?"

Kimberly was speechless and couldn't believe the sublime behavior of his.

" You started this and am gonna end it," Nate whispered rudely to her hearing.

"B*stard!" She muttered just enough for him to hear and then walked away, furious.

She wasn't flirting with him and why would she do that? He's such a proud brat. And seriously? That was really uncalled for.

" It's obvious you'd flirt with him, he's handsome. But just because he asked for you doesn't mean he's interested in you," Julia chided when she entered the kitchen. Kim frowned slightly.

She finally got his order. Normally Kimberly would've done something about him and shut his gob for good but he's actually influential and her boss actually respects him so she doesn't want to mess with him. She can't risk getting fired.

"Here's your order, Sir" Kimberly said trying to sound sweet as she placed the tray on the table with an orange smoothie.

"This isn't what I asked for!" Nate said quirking his lips. He was smirking and Kim got enraged.

"Yes it is Mister. You probably have amnesia," she fired back angrily.

What a blatant liar.

" I asked for a banana shake. What the hell is wrong with you?" He got up to leave but her boss arrived immediately.

"Sir, don't worry we'll get you another waitress," he said in a conciliatory voice.

"Nah, she has to get it right." Nate looked at her.

"And she will. Now Kim take his order and don't make a f**king mistake," Mr Stewie snarled at her.

Kimberly just stood there like a helpless dog. She was being ruined by Nate. Kim moved away from them. Everything blurred and all she could see was the ruthless look in Mr Stewie eyes.

She felt a bit dazed. Nate is making it look like she's so crushing on him that she messed up the orders. And now, she's going to get back at Nate. Her resolve to remain undaunted by Nate's surly character vanished and now it's payback time.

No matter what!

Kim nodded weakly walking away. She felt all eyes were on her. If she gets fired for what she's about to do then so be it. She's going to risk it. She was welcoming the thought.

She wanted to be fired for hurting Nate
