Love Me Forever

Bennet finished cleaning up and closed the shop. Before going to his grandfather's, he went by the restaurante where Pepper worked. He noticed she was alone, and quietly opened the door. "Hey....is it safe?"
 
She laughed a little. "Yeah he's gone. It's just me" she said watching the people pass by the restaurant. The lights were all off . the only light in the room came from the candle that was on the table Pepper was sitting on.
 
She nodded "but they're still edible right..........because if your boss was going to throw them out does that mean theres something worng with them?" she asked getting up to get them some drinks.
 
"Oh no, I wouldn't give them to you if they were all moldy or something. You know...after a day or two of having certain things, if we haven't been able to sell them he likes to get rid of them and get fresh products." Bennet rolled his eyes. "He's old-fashioned. I usually take advantage." He smiled.
 
She laughed "I know. I'm just teasing. I do work in a restaurant you know...........although sometimes it feels like a prison" she said pouring the drinks and placing them at the bar. She sat on a stool infront of the bar.
 
"I dont know" Pepper replied taking a bite from the cookie "maybe he was bullied as a child" she suggested not quite being able to imagine it. "But if tomorrows like today..........." she trailed off shaking her head "I think I might just have to quit".
 
She shrugged "but at such short notice.........this job is basically paying for everything right now. Maybe it'll be better tomorrow" she said cheering up a little and trying to be optimistic. "Anyway enough about me. Hows the planning for the wedding going?" she asked.
 
"Thats good" she said yawning a little. "I'm sorry.........gosh I'm so rude. You come all the way over here for lunch then I rush you away and now I'm yawning" she said rubbing her eyes and trying to stay awake. "I think last nights events have caught up with me and my feet are so sore" she said.
