Meat
Char
Customer
You call this shit a meal?!
Gregor
R.B. Sous-chef
Huh...
Lately, there's this regular customer who always complains about my work. Every time I serve something nice and hot, they have something to say about it.
Char
Customer
The meat is overcooked, and the crust...how did you underbake it?
I try to be polite 'bout it, of course, but it sure gets grating.
Gregor
R.B. Sous-chef
Sorry about that, bud. I'll bake you a new pie and do it right this time.
Char
Customer
Mmmmmm.....
Char
Customer
Nah, no need for that. Here.
Except that every time they're done, I get a huge tip. Which is awfully strange, but who am I to question it?
Char
Customer
I'll come back tomorrow!
Gregor
R.B. Sous-chef
Hah...Yeah, you will. And I'll make your food better next time.
That's not enough for me though. Something says in my mind to impress this one. Each day passes and I hear the same thing.
Something about the meat, something about the potatoes, etc.
Until, one day...
Gregor
R.B. Sous-chef
This one's on me.
Char
Customer
Ha? Why?
Gregor
R.B. Sous-chef
If you're always unsatisfied, why should I make you pay for it, y'know?
Gregor
R.B. Sous-chef
So, you can have this one. No charge.
They looked at me like I had actually gone mad. And a blush formed on their cheeks.
Char
Customer
I...Well..Uh..
Char
Customer
Y...You know I come here every day, right...?
Gregor
R.B. Sous-chef
Ya sure do.
Char
Customer
I-If I was really that unhappy, I wouldn't have come back...!
Char
Customer
It's just nice seeing you...
I understood. I figured that something was up, but not in the way I thought. That was nice.
Say, I never really got to talk to this guy properly.
Gregor
R.B. Sous-chef
Is that so? Well, we should eat this one together. Then you can complain all you want.
Char
Customer
Really?
Gregor
R.B. Sous-chef
Really.
Guess now is a good start.
