“Cammie!”
“Oh, cute, what’s it short for?” I expected her to say Camilla or Cameron
or shit, maybe that it wasn’t even short for anything, but I definitely wasn't
expecting—
“Chameleon!” She beamed and I paused to look at her friend, trying to
gauge if she was serious. The grump simply rolled her eyes as I scribbled the
name down on the cup. Well, her parents must have a really weird sense of
humor.
I grabbed another cup and looked at her friend.
“I’ll take a tall black coffee, please. No sugar.” When I opened my mouth
to ask for a name she cut me off and said "Just write Cammie again.”
What an authoritative little shit.
Rolling my eyes I did as she said and started preparing their orders.
When I finally finished, I turned around and slid the two cups on the counter.
“That will be $9,78 please.”
The little tyrant handed me a fifty dollar bill and said “Keep the change.”
Before grabbing her coffee and turning around to exit the shop.
I looked at her friend who smiled sheepishly,. "It was nice meeting you!"
She thanked me and followed her friend.
What the fuck, was that how kids behaved these days? I’ll be damned if I
let Valentina become a spoiled little shit growing up.
Following them through the shop’s window, I saw them cross the street
and get into a black Mercedes with tinted windows. As soon as the doors
were shut, they accelerated down the street, only leaving dust in their wake.
I shook my head. What a strange little encounter.
