Nicole had worked a double today, Jace was with his father until tomorrow. While he was gone Nicole tried her best to pack in as much work as she could, as well as any house chores. That way she could spend more time focused on him when they were together. However today she had wished she had taken the second shift, they got slammed at lunch and it seemed to have stayed busy for the majority of the evening. Though it had finally started to slow down.
Just as she was about to do her cash a group of ten walked in, and even though she had insisted Emma let her take it she was glad she had refused. She couldn’t wait to get out of her work clothes but she always felt bad leaving Emma working. Emma was older then her but she always felt like they were kindred spirits. She was easy to talk to and seemed to be one of the few people who had really got what she had gone through. She was standing at the end of the bar finishing up her cash when Emma’s son walked, “Shit..” She breathed out, only now remembering he would be coming to pick up his mom. “Hey Lawson, Im so sorry your mom just picked up another table. I don’t think she’ll be done for a while. Can grab you a coffee or water or something?” She asked feeling a little guilty.
