Someone I met today maybe owned a restaurant.

I say maybe because Kayte and I went to eat at OverEasy in Kailua. Brunch spots tend to be popular anywhere, and this one was no exception. We had gotten our table just as a wait was forming for the tables. We got seated a few feet away from the waiting area. Our waitress greeted us and took our orders and asked if needed anything.

"Ketchup please!"

Kayte and I continued to eat our breakfast. She ate faster than I did because I was still a little sick. We went over a bunch of different topics as I slowly finished my pancakes. Eventually another woman came over; she wasn't our waitress. She wasn't wearing the uniform, didn't have any indication she was one of the waitresses. I was mid sentence when she interrupted.

"Are you almost done eating? Do you need a box for that?"
"....................."
"Oh, no rush, I'm just asking."

Kayte and I exchanged glances. I looked behind her at the waiting area, and there weren't any people waiting for a table.

"Oh it's ok, you can just ask for a box when you're ready."

She left the table after taking our ketchup bottle, and I was really confused. NO idea who she was, if she was the owner, or whatever. If she was the owner, would you really want to bother someone mid-sentence and make them feel rushed?

The waitress came over smiling, a little awkwardly (to me at least), and asked if I was done. At this point, I was pretty over my food and asked for the bill. I was still really confused by the non-waitress waitress?

If she just wanted the ketchup, she should have just asked.

Post #valentines girlfriend date! ❤️😛
