"Crossley, delivery!" The restaurant manager called out to her just as she was lost in thought. Crossley snapped back to reality and quickly walked over.
"Manager, I just finished my shift..." She had just changed out of her uniform, yet the manager wanted her to deliver food!?
"The restaurant is busy today. I noticed you had to take care of your child, so I let you leave early. Otherwise, you would definitely have had to work overtime. But could you please make this delivery before you leave..." the manager smiled, practically pleading with her, "Please help us out!?"
Crossley looked around the restaurant. Indeed, there were many diners tonight, and it was almost eight o'clock, yet people were still coming in one after another.
"Alright, I'll deliver it!" Crossley had often received the manager's help in the past, so helping out was the right thing to do. She took the packed delivery and the address, turned around, and headed out the door.
