came clean with her feelings and her love life in general.
“I know it’s a little bit complicated when it comes to finding a job. But when it comes to having a boyfriend, it’s a little more complicated that life itself. In other words, I am single.”
The bartender smiled. Now he understood why she looked miserable. Having been in the business of talking to miserable drunks and customers for over four hundred years, peter was very good at reading people. And that said, it seemed as though the most important thing would be to try and give her some advice.
Yes, Peter was a vampire that had managed to mingle with humans and made sure that he had started something legit. And despite moving after every twenty years to avoid detection – you know, because he wasn’t aging and all – he had managed to keep his business for a very long time and therefore became very good with people.
“Here, this next drink is on the house. And if you ever need a job, you can come and work here for me. I am the owner of this place and I am forced to work as a bartender as well as the accounting guy. I don’t know what is happening to me nowadays but I am not as fast as I used to. Besides, you do strike me like someone who is good with handling money. Are you by any chance an accountant?”
Joyce raised an eyebrow. If it was a guess, then it was a smart one. She took another sip at the counter and smiled. You know what they say, when God closes one door, He always opens another. There was no way she was going to throw away that amazing chance. The good thing was that the club was near her home and so she wouldn’t have to waste way too much of fare until she got all sorted out.
“Well, I don’t really know what to say.”
“Say yes and start today. I think I would have an incredible time sitting back and having a couple of drinks for the first time.”
“I guess you have yourself a deal. But before I start, how much are you willing to pay me?”
“Two hundred a day.”
That was much more than she had bargained for. In other words, she was going to have a starting salary that was much better than most of her peers and needless to say, it seemed as though it was such an incredible deal – too good for her to refuse. And that was how she got to start her first job. And now the only thing remaining for her life to be complete was for her to find the love of her life.
-The fine waitress-
It didn’t take that long before people noticed that in peter’s place, as the club was called, had the hottest bartender in the town. And as usual, the guys begun crawling all over there in a bid to get things working as far as getting to flirt and finally win her over was concerned. And just like that, from never getting a text message from anyone, she made sure that she was getting a text message from virtually every single person that she encountered.
At first, it seemed as though Joyce was a little bit flattered. But in the end, it seemed as though it was rather difficult considering the fact that most of the guys who were hitting on her were old guys who didn’t really care to have a relationship with her, just a good night. Most of them were old, grumpy and married.
And even if Joyce was longing for a relationship, she wasn’t that desperate. And that said, she was left with no other choice but to make a pass at them since they weren’t her type, with all due respect of course. But deep down, she knew that somehow someone who was the right match was going to come by without a doubt.
And when that happened, then she was going to make sure that everything was happening the right way. The good thing about Joyce was that she always followed her instinct and that said, she decided to get a little patient.
Relationships aside, she had also managed to move out of her father’s apartment and on top of that, also managed to send him some cash at the end of the month,
