Love Among the Pizza Boxes

What does one do when they own a restaurant?
What did my dad do?
…
Drink beer…?
Find himself a girlfriend who really creeps me out.
Grow a five o’clock shadow.
You know, I really don’t want to do any of those things.
Hmmm…
I should really learn the manager’s name.
And I should probably tell everyone that I’m their boss now.
…
I’m their boss now.
…
So I get in the Pizza Mobile and start driving to Pizza Hut.
I’ll have to return their delivery car soon.
I mean… My delivery car.
I’m confusing myself so I’m just gonna stop thinking about that now.
So I’m in Pizza Hut now.
And there’s the manager.
She’s bitching at Beth because she’s the only one here.
I clear my throat awkwardly and the manager lady looks at me with a crinkled nose.
“May I help you…?” she asks me in a snarky tone.
…
So in a nutshell the manager hates me because I’m nineteen and in charge of her financial future.
Her name is Mary.
Mary Sue.
How original.
She reminds me a lot of Hilary Clinton.
Minus the cankles.
