Third person's POV
"I need a plate of mac and cheese at table sixteen and a plate full with donuts at table fourteen." A feminine voice yells from across the table at the end corner. Linda releases a sigh of frustration, she rubs her temple with her sweaty palms. Her hands reach for the hem of her apron to wipe off the sweat. Linda groans and makes a mental note to herself that this will ultimately be the last order she will be attending to since her shift for today already ended an hour ago yet for some reasons she is still stuck at work. Linda is fully aware that if she takes up another order she might pass out as a result of tiredness and an hungry stomach.
"LINDA! DID YOU NOT HEAR ME?" Miss Ray, the oldest worker at the restaurant. That woman is in her late thirties yet she has not settled down for marriage. Rumors have it around the restaurant that she has been married four times and all her four partners requested for a divorce because of her shitty character.
"Coming Miss Ray!" Linda yells back. She stumps her foot in anger and mutters a curse under her breath. Linda reaches for the counter and hastily prepares the order requested by Miss Ray for table sixteen and table fourteen.
"A plate of mac and cheese for table sixteen and a plate full with donuts for table fourteen!" Linda announces ringing the bell on the counter to alert Miss Ray.
The old woman dashes towards Linda hastily, she leans briefly on the counter and pants profusely after running all the way from the last table up to the counter. Miss Ray's plump size limits her from attending to customers in a haste because it weakens her but this time she has absolutely no choice because her other colleagues did not show up for work today so she has no choice but to handle it herself and also make Linda work extra hours.
"Oh darling. I am so sorry that you have to work past your shift." Miss Ray says staring at Linda with pity all over face.
"You know it is a Friday night and people love to catch up on things with their friends while eating delicious food at a restaurant." Miss Ray says with a small shrug. Linda tries to protest but Miss Ray waves it off quickly before Linda can even utter a single word.
"Thank you baby. I owe you on this one." Miss Ray grabs the order she had requested for and disappears into the crowd of customers.
Linda releases a heavy sigh and scolds herself for not being able to speak up at the slightest inconvenience that she feels.
She gulps a lump down her throat and proceeds to working.
After an extra hour of working, Miss Ray notices how tired Linda looks so she finally lets her go scot-free not after tipping her of course. Linda bids Miss Ray goodbye and happily skips out of the restaurant with her thoughts only on her bed and a goodnight rest. Her phone suddenly beeps jolting her from her sweet thoughts. She fetches her phone from her coat pocket and sees it is a text from Katherine, her best friend.
"I will be at your work place in the next five minutes. I have something exciting to tell you!" Linda reads Katherine's text aloud. Linda groans loudly at how everyone is trying to sabotage her sweet sleep, she wonders what Katherine is so excited to tell Linda about that can not wait till tomorrow.
Linda stands outside of the restaurant and rubs her shoulders from the goosebumps that come from the cool breeze outside. She refuses to go back into the restaurant because she has a feeling that Miss Ray might drag her back and plead her to work one more extra hour.
Few minutes later, Katherine arrives out of a taxi. She dashes towards her best friend and pulls her into a tight hug.
"Linda!!!" Katherine squeals excitedly as if she she did not just see Linda this morning.
"Katie, hi." Linda says with a confused look on her face. She breaks free from her embrace with her best friend and glares at her with both her brows raised.
"We could have talked at home Katie, what has gotten you so worked up?" Linda asks.
"I GOT A RAISE!!" Katherine squeals out loud in Linda's ears. She jumps excitedly and does a mini dance that causes Linda to smile.
"Oh my God, that is good news Kathie, I am so proud of you. Congratulations girl." Linda says grinning widely at her best friend's success. Linda knows fully well how Katherine has worked hard over the years just to get this far.
"Let us celebrate! My elder sister works at this expensive bar downtown. We could board a taxi there, drink a lot and maybe lodge at an hotel close by. We can spend the night together and tag it as a girls night out!" Katherine says giving Linda her best puppy eyes and silently praying that she does not refuse.
Katherine knows Linda is not much of a party type so she usually refuses to go clubbing with Katherine whenever she offers.
"Kathie." Linda pauses to release a small sigh, she would have loved to celebrate with her best friend but she is still overwhelmed with tiredness from working extra time.
"Linda, do not even think of saying no because that will only ruin my mood and you know it. Let us just have fun for a while and then if you want to go home afterwards then no problem, I just want to have some fun with my best friend." Katherine whines and that is the moment Linda gives up and accepts to go clubbing with Katherine. Linda knows how Katherine can get when she desperately wants something, no matter how much she tries to protest, she knows none of that will work because Katherine is a strong willed person that will never let anyone change her decision.
Katherine ends up dragging Linda with her to the bar. The girls step into the bar and start the night with a few shots of tequila. Katherine ends up getting dragged by an handsome guy amongst the numerous people at the bar. Linda is left alone drowning the harsh liquid down her throat. She becomes a bit tipsy and she giggles at how pathetic she is.
Linda decides to loosen up a bit, she drags herself off the stool and walks towards the dance floor, Linds allows herself get lost in the music, she twists her entire body effortlessly to the spanish song blaring loud from the speakers.
Little did Linda know that a young man was watching her across the room with lust. He watches as Linda moves every single part of her waist to the music and how sexy she looks in a sleeveless red dress that Katherine had made them stop and buy on their way to the bar.
The young man, Donald does not realize when his whole body succumbs to her charm, he rises from the stool and walks away from the group of guys he was surrounded by earlier.
Donald makes his way towards Linda, he brushes past a lot of drunk and sweaty adults. Immediately he gets to Linda, he wastes no time, his hands reach for her waist and he pulls her close to himself. Linda releases a small moan at the touch of Donald's hands on her bare skin. He plants slow kisses from her neck down to her cleavage. Linda bites her lips seductively and ruffles Donald's styled black hair. She allows Donald's hands explore every bit of her body.
"Do you want to get out of here?" Donald's hoarse and deep voice whispers into Linda's ears sending chills and shivers down her spine. She nods her head desperately and allows him to lift her up bridal style and lead her out of the bar.
The both of them walk into a hotel besides the bar. Donald hastily books a VIP hotel and leads Linda into the hotel room. He drops her aggressively on the bed and hastily begins to undress himself and Linda does the same as well.
He pauses to stare at Linda with so much sexual lust, he stares at how curvy her waist is and how it is driving him crazy.
Donald climbs the bed slowly and starts to plant kisses on every part of her body like her body is an entire piece of art. He kisses her lips aggressively and Linda kisses him back with the same energy. His hands caress every bit of her body softly and it sends an ultimate sparkling feeling to Linda, the butterflies in her belly rises and it sends a tingling feeling to her.
Donald and Linda allow their sexual lust get the best of them regardless of the consequences they might have to face in the aftermath of their choice of actions.
