CHAPTER 8
“Yes mom it was great!” I told Mom and dad my experience of the first day being a waitress. “The people were so nice and so welcoming. I really had a fun day.”
“We really are glad that you had a great day!” Mom said, kissing me on my forehead.
“Yes, honey. I think you made the right choice by joining the job” dad said.
Well I am so happy mom and dad are happy. As soon as I came back from Becky’s house, we have been discussing my job. Mom has not even asked me for dinner. But it’s forgiven. I can understand that they are really excited, after all their only daughter has started working.
“What would be your job timings, love?” Mom asked.
“It would be from 8:00 AM to 7:00 PM.” I replied. “And you know the best part is Jake’s timings are the same.” Dad actually choked on the coffee he was drinking.
“Jake has the same timing, that is….. Great!” he said, after thinking about what to say.
I glanced at mom, who was trying to control her laughter. Dad is looking so cute, even I want to laugh.
“Henry, I think we should have dinner. Ash must be hungry. She has worked really hard today.” Mom said rushing towards the kitchen. My mom is really fond of cooking. And I think she cooks the most scrumptious meals.
I took in the aroma, which has filled our kitchen and the adjoining dining hall.
“Mom I can’t wait. Hurry up. The aroma is so tempting.” I said.
“Just a sec, darling.” Mom replied from the kitchen. Our dining table is always laid out nicely, so Mum just has to bring in the food.
