A Place to Eat

Open

The various flavors of the city were something that Selena wasn’t quite used to yet. Often times dishes weren’t spicy enough or didn’t contain the same amounts of flavor she was used to and that was on top of not using the same flavors she was used to. In her own opinion, everything was a little bland. Not to the point of it being undesirable to eat, but just enough that it made it difficult to decide on a place. Which didn’t help when she had a class to teach in a few hours and still had to prepare for that. It was a rather large adjustment for her.

Finally, she had settled on a new place - The Red Snapper. It had raving reviews and was her last hope for good food here.

•｡ ❀ 𝒜nother day, another nickel - or so they say, except for when your first table of the evening is rude and refuses to give you a tip because of a mishap occurring in the kitchen. At this point in her waitressing career, though, Muffy had become accustomed to being the person blamed for mistakes that were mostly beyond her control and jurisdiction; nonetheless, as her manager constantly reminded her, the customer is always right. She would beg to differ; however, holding back her tongue was the wise decision in lieu of risking her primary income that undeniably helped in paying the bills.

𝓗opefully, the young woman who was - without a doubt - gorgeous from head to toe would be more kind and gracious than her previous patrons.

“𝒲elcome to The Red Snapper! ♪” Muffy greeted, smiling brightly whilst swiftly walking behind the hostess’ table to write her off in her section. “Will this be dining for one, or are you expecting anyone else?”

•｡ ❀ 𝒜lthough much of her past did not entail her proudest moments, nor was it a piece of her history she ever wished to be unearthed - she never forgot the people along the way she had met who brought light and love into her life, especially since those who are sincere and genuine seemed to be a rarity to come across nowadays. Muffy remained in touch with many of her friends and co-workers from the city, occasionally reaching out to them to see how they were faring - some more successful than the others, but more importantly, she wanted nothing but happiness for them. On this day in particular, the blonde woman had heard from a group of former - and current - models she had worked with that today was the anniversary of one of their more scandalous spreads. At this point, she forced herself to look back on it fondly and reminisce all of the fun times she had spent with those girls - even though it was the beginning of the end of her growing career - and reputation.

𝒪f course, living in Harbour Pointe, she would have never expected anyone to recognize who she was - given quite some time had passed since then, and because she did not want them to perceive her differently. Moving here was a new start - and she worked tirelessly to change her image and portray herself as a young woman who recently moved here seeking a change of pace. Therefore, when she arrived at the bus stop to wait for the next transit, she was mortified to recognize a too familiar a face on the cover of some of the magazines.

𝓘n the heat of the moment of discovery, she gathered the magazines with her posing on the cover in a frenzy - stuffing them into her purse in spite of them all clearly not fitting. During all of this, she was oblivious to the fact that someone else was standing there with her - watching her like the mad woman she was acting as. Muffy glanced over at the individual and nervously smiled, brushing off her bizarre behavior by slowly pushing the last of the magazines into her overflowing purse. “O-Oh my, hehe. ♪” She innocuously giggled. “It is a lovely day outside, isn’t it? Beautiful weather indeed. ♥”

Julia thought of herself as a very capable owner. She knew each animal, their needs, their wants, their medical history, and the best types of families or individuals they would mesh with. Her research gathering was conducted with the utmost professionalism - she took the animals out to play with them for hours. Hours and hours. It was in the best interest of the animals and future adopters she’d tell her employees, but really she mostly wanted an excuse to play with each animal brought to her.

After a morning with a group of six sibling kittens, the blonde was ready to check back in on the others working the counter and stocking the shelves. To make sure everything was done properly and in a way that proved efficient for both customers and staff. However, before she could get to the front counter, a customer stopped her by name.

“Muffy~! I absolutely remember.”

She returned the wave and closed the distance between them. She had only met the other blonde once during a girl’s only night at Lily’s place a number of nights back. They weren’t friends, but they weren’t strangers either. Either way, she still thought the other woman was a pleasant person to be around.

“I do, so let me know if you need any help, okay~?”

•｡ ❀ 𝓜uffy smiled widely, pleased to hear that she was memorable - and at the least manage to make a positive first impression. “It’s been a while,” she held her hands together in front of her, “how have you been?” Naturally, she did not expect a formal response, for it was merely part of her instinct to start a small conversation and express interest in the other - to which was completely genuine, for the young woman was fond of her during the brief time they spent together. She giggled quietly to herself, though - in that she should have known that Julia was an animal-oriented kind of girl. There was simply an air about her that she could not explain - but it made her heart happy, which was all that mattered then.

“𝒜ctually - if you are not busy, of course - then I really would appreciate your help!” Perfect timing for the two to reunite, or else she would have had to work her charm and seek assistance from another employee - but in all fairness, she would value her input and knowledge much more. “I was considering adopting a pet to live with my younger cousin and me here in town. It would be cute to have an animal in the family! ♥“

Disaster in the Women’s Section || Muffy & Molly

@loveydoveymuffy​;

Molly was horrible at picking out clothes. She knew things she liked, and when she lived at home it’d been simple enough to buy whatever caught her eye and sort it out later, but now she lived on a budget. Shopping for food on a budget was hard enough, but clothes? Even worse. But she needed a new pair of pants, or shorts, or something to wear that wasn’t torn up from over-use.

Still in the middle of her decision, Molly continued through the racks and shelves for something not only in her price range, but something that she liked. A seemingly impossible feet. There were some cute tops higher up but she was sure those would be even more expensive. Unable to help herself, she stared up at them, backing up slowly to get a better view.

And then crashed into a display. Clothes toppled over her and the shelf she ran into jammed into her back, making her cry out in pain. Oh, just perfect.

[loveydoveymuffy]

•｡ ❀ 𝒞hange of the seasons was the opportune time to revamp your wardrobe and prepare for the chilly weather with layers and scarves and gloves - oh my! In all honesty, though, Muffy sometimes lacks common sense and prioritizes her clothing selection on aesthetic rather than warmth; nevertheless, if the young woman looked hot, then she would - hopefully - feel hot! Then again, she understood that the downfall to adulting was maintaining a budget so that she did not indulge all of her savings into dolling herself up to embrace the cold in a graceful fashion - literally and figuratively.

𝒜 cute top in the distance became the new apple of her eye - to which she perused through the aisles to get closer and view it on her body, but her attention was drawn towards the crashing and burning sound of hangers and metal collapsing unto the ground; or rather, on someone else.

“𝓔ee!” Muffy shrieked, covering her ajar lips with her hands - watching the scene unfold ‘til she escaped her stupor and stepped forward to lend a hand. “Are you okay?” She started scavenging through the clothing until she felt a hand to hold on to. “Can you stand up? Are you hurt? Do I need to go call someone for help?!”

•｡ ❀ 𝓗alloween may have caused bittersweet memories from her past to resurface - but with this new start meant a new approach to dolling herself up. Muffy may have come across to many people as a dumb blonde who would find this special occasion an excuse to dress provocatively - to which she believed that every woman should dress however she pleased, but it was the principle that people would shame her for it and pass on judgments that made it unfair. Similar to the character Elle Woods, she defeated all odds and became a successful lawyer. Naturally, Muffy felt that she should dress as the iconic character for the workplace party - defying all stereotypes and preconceived notions in her direction.

𝓕or the first time in a long time, the woman was genuinely excited and looking forward to this gathering - waiting impatiently for the bus to deliver her to the club so that she could see what everyone dressed as.

•｡ ❀ 𝒯he hopeless romantic nestled deep in the core of Muffy as an individual always jumped out when the topic of love is in the air - such as when she had decided to visit the park on one of her days available from work to reread a romance novel that gave her nostalgia from her youth; rather, during her early 20s when this author released her first book, and thereafter - it became a bestseller. Her heart merely melted towards any concept involving love, but this was one of the few novels that she could read over and over again without becoming tiresome of it. She reminisced to the prime of her modeling career when she actually attended one of the promotional parties for Iridescent Rose; it was such a spectacular evening despite not meeting the novelist herself in the flesh; nonetheless, though, it was enough of an experience to cherish now that she was older and a bit wiser.

𝒮he shifted her position on the bench, moving her leg to a more comfortable place when her cell phone slipped out of the pocket of her shawl unto the concrete. Goodness gracious, it had made a surprising distance along the concrete - she simply hoped that the screen had not cracked again. Clumsiness was not one of her virtues, to say the least.

𝒰nexpectedly, another woman leaned forward to pick it up and hand it to her. Before Muffy could express her gratitude, her eyes befell upon her amethyst eyes - recognizing her almost immediately.

𝒮peaking of the devil. “Thank you...” Muffy lingered after her pause, hesitantly accepting the phone prior to speaking up once again. “I hope you don’t mind me asking, but... are you Iridescent Rose?” What were the odds that she would stumble across a famous author such as herself in a smaller city like this?

•｡ ❀ 𝓕alling for her persuasion and innocent doe eyes, Muffy conceded defeat to her younger cousin and promised that she would stop by the pet store to view the adoptable animals and consider making room for one more in their apartment. It was not that she did not love animals very much, but she never thought of it to be ideal for her to be caring for another life when she was still trying to figure her own out. After all, she supposed, nurturing an animal shared a few similarities with raising a child - a supplemental component to her life that she hoped to achieve someday with the right man; nonetheless, that was simply a dream and nothing more - but she would be lying if she said that the animals she gained a glimpse of through the storefront window did not make her heart melt.

𝒯he young woman stepped inside, closing the door gently behind her - walking further into the store beyond the shelves supplied with all the necessities one would need to care for a critter. Eventually, she discovered someone who she presumed to be an employee there - about to ask for assistance until her face resembled closely to someone she had met before.

“𝒥ulia? Is that you?” She eagerly smiled, offering a small wave. “It’s been a while - since I met you at Lily’s apartment, right? My name is Muffy, in case you don’t remember me. It’s nice to see you again. ♥” Their time together was minimal and, frankly, not enough to gather an idea of who she was - but she made a positive first impression, though. “Do you work here?”

•｡ ❀ 𝒪f all the hustle and bustle that this job entailed from miscommunications in the kitchen to difficulties on behalf of the customers that came in, it was always refreshing to see a regular patron who Muffy knew would be respectful of her time and efforts - as well as typically placing an order for the same dish. With the host position still vacant after working at the restaurant for the past couple of months, the young woman graciously extended the offer to delegate her responsibilities to that and her waitressing - and as stressful and sometimes overwhelming it may have been, she sincerely appreciated the surplus income to her original below minimum wage salary. Thankfully, several of her tables had left and provided her enough time to sit down and catch her breath - watching the entrance with a careful eye for another person to step inside.

𝒜nd, like clockwork, she arose from her seat when the chiming from the bell indicated a new presence in the restaurant - though, much to her delightful surprise, this gentleman was not fairly new at all.

“𝒲ell hello there, Mr. Bastet. ♥” Muffy smiled sweetly, tossing her luscious blonde locks behind her shoulders - cradling a menu in one arm and gesturing for the towering man to follow. “You are just in time to miss the lunch rush. How are you this afternoon? ♪”

•｡ ❀ 𝒪ne glass after the other the night prior following a disastrous date, it was needless to say that Muffy remembered in the morning that she is not as young as she used to be; alas, age simply improved her skill in the craft of makeup to conceal her exhaustion - reviving the life and refining the natural beauty in her face, to the lack of the knowledge of everyone else. Though, it could not suffice in efficiently waking her up and preparing her for the tiresome day ahead; thus, she sought refuge in the nearest coffee shop that came to mind - even if she had only visited a couple of times, their reputation around the city portrayed their drinks to be pretty reliable.

𝓔ventually, the line continued moving until the blonde was standing before the barista - partially shocked by how much taller she was than her, but nonetheless, displayed a lavish smile and greeted her in a friendly and upbeat tone to hide how much she craved the warm embrace of her blankets. 

“𝒞ould I please have Honey Cinnamon Milk - warm, if possible? I would appreciate it. ♪” Muffy searched in her wallet for some cash, handing some to the barista while also putting a couple in the tip jar - from the perspective of a waitress, she understood how important tips were in supporting these employees. “May I also say that your necklace is very pretty? ♥“

Break Time || Muffy & Manna

[loveydoveymuffy]

change-the-ending·:

Manna hummed in sympathy at Muffy’s predicament - something she understood completely. “They think we’re cattle,” she observed. “Like we asked to be treated like servants just because we’re serving them. It’s incredible. If I’m not being blamed for a fifty cents menu increase, I’m being shouted at for bringing someone two glasses of Coke at once. It’s not my fault if they keep drinking it down to the ice while I’m busy with one of my other tables! They should be thankful I’m making sure they don’t have to go without a drink while I’m being run ragged by my 12-top!”

As she began to eat her food, she relaxed little by little into the chair, then stared out over Harbour Pointe’s landscape. Times like this, a sense of utter despondence slipped over her, and she had to fight to try and keep it at bay. It was far more difficult today than it should be.

“Maybe it was a mistake for me to come here,” she said quietly. “Maybe I should’ve stayed with my husband.” She hadn’t mentioned him to Muffy before, but the paleness where her wedding band used to be on her tanned, rough hands was no doubt glaringly obvious.

•｡ ❀ 𝒜ll Muffy could gather herself to do in lieu of accompanying her voice with the conspicuous frustration of her own was merely nod - sharing her sentiments wholeheartedly, as unfortunate as that was to bond over with some of those grotesque male patrons. “It honestly makes me lose my faith in humanity with how horrible and simply awful these customers treat us - as if we are the dirt beneath their shoe. Does it not cross their mind that we are people, too? That we have our own feelings and emotions that we put aside to serve them with a plastered smile on our faces? If anything... it’s just disheartening to know that if they choose to disrespect us, then they must show that dark and ugly side of them to the people in their lives. They should be ashamed of themselves.” 

𝒮tepping off her imaginary pedestal, the waitress huffed and relieved the pressure building in her chest - running her intricate fingers through her luscious blonde locks with her gaze following that of her new friend to beyond the balcony. With summer departing and leaving room for autumn to arrive, it made her wonder if the trees in this city would change colors - painting the landscape in a wide variety of warm hues. It was hard enough to believe that she had already been here long enough to see the seasons change - time slipping from her grasp.

𝒲ithin that the moment, the heart of her new friend was unlocked - and out poured the two statements that had startled Muffy, who was unexpecting of that sudden disclosure; yet, it meant something that the woman was comfortable enough in her presence to air those grievances. She shifted her position in her seat to face the dispirited brunette, placing her hands over the one where the paleness around her ring finger carried a tragic story with no happy ending - and it must have burdened her every single day.

“𝓜anna?” A soft smile graced her supple lips. “I know that you and I do not know each other very well, but... I do not believe it was a mistake for us to meet - for you to enter my life. You have welcomed me with open arms when I first came to the city, and it was without a doubt that I knew that you have one of the hugest and most loving hearts I have ever encountered. I understand it may be difficult now, but... please never forget that you are amazing. You are so wonderful. And if someone cannot appreciate that... then they do not deserve you and the outpouring of love that you have to offer. ♥“ Muffy fell silent and squeezed her hand gently.

merlanna·:

Lanna usually had her driver take her places, but today she just wanted to go down a few blocks to a cute little restaurant she heard was really good. It felt excessive to call her driver just for this. Plus, she got to wear her disguise (which was just a pair of sunglasses and a hat….) which was always fun.

As she was standing at the stop the woman next to her started franticly shuffling magazines around. She watched, confused. Boy, people in the city sure were weird.

However, when the woman turned and spoke, Lanna knew exactly who she was. Ignoring whatever small talk Muffy had said, Lanna excitedly moved closer to her.

She giggled softly before pulling down her sunglasses, “Muffy its me!” She whispered.

She quickly put her sunglasses back on and grabbed Muffy’s hands, “It’s been so long! I’m so excited to see you! We need to catch up! Are you free right now?”

•｡ ❀ 𝓜ay it be the poor lighting or the adrenaline cloud her judgment upon seeing the woman, but regardless, she had to stop and contemplate on where she had seen the familiar and - undoubtedly gorgeous - face before. Then, the memory trickled in like a dripping sink and caused her face to light up with wonderment and curiosity - all together with a wide grin gracing her supple lips. “Lanna? Is that you? What are you doing here?” Needless to say, the older woman felt like a freak show with several magazines stuffed into her purse; nonetheless, the other blonde took her soft hands into her own and never missed a beat with her voice that made Muffy think of some of her favorite songs by the remarkable singer.

“𝒪h my gosh, i-it has! ♪ Um...” She thought quickly, seemingly standing on her toes with a scatterbrain masked by a facial expression of calmness. “Y-Yes, I am! I was going to head back to my apartment, but I am free now if you want to do something now!” With everything that had occurred with the pop star that had become fodder for the tabloids in the past couple of years, it was a miracle to see her after she had - quite almost literally - fallen off the face of the planet.
