hey sir does akio work here?
the manager nods and says he'll be back
I sit in the chair and wait
Akio? I say confused no I don't know anyone by that name. We're we thinking of the same person?
yea you might have I’m looking for a male named akio 24 year old
Akio? I look at you confused
yes I looking for him you see my two kids next to me
the man behind the counter looks up from his newspaper "Who's asking?"
I’m a friend of his I wanted to ask him something
Akio? No, we don't have anyone by that name working here. Can I help you with something else?
are you sure? i thought i saw him here, maybe im just imagining it
the boss replies "ah...no..he doesn't. he left 2 months ago."
he gets surprised really? That’s too bad I really like him I wish he still worked here I was going to ask if I could make an appointment with him…he seems disappointed
The manager looks at him “Leo? long time no see.. she doesn’t work here..”
I look at him confused wait what do you mean he doesn’t work here? Where did he go?
the boss looks up from his desk "Who's asking?"
uhhh my name is glitzmidnight I say that with a little bit of fear in my voice
as the bartender looks at Leo he smiles ah yes, he works here.
Can I book an appointment with him?
The Bartender sighs What's this about, Leo? You know Akio quit last month.
he quit! why did he quit? I say
a worker says “she’s on break, but she’ll be back shortly.”
the bartender says yeah she does, but she's doing overtime right now, come back in an hour
can’t you just send her out I will pay extra
The bartender looks at Leo with annoyance Akio doesn't work here anymore. He left like 3 years ago. Why?
oh really? Damn it…do you have any idea where he could be?
the bartender shakes his head Sorry, mate. Akio doesn't work here anymore.
i look shocked “he quit” i said i thought he worked here he was always here on the weekends?
