The Strange Restaurant EP 1

Type Type

It's mid-june
At 1:00 AM,
Even at this hour the office feels like an oven.

I'm here in the office typing on the keyboard for some major meeting coming up after which I may get free of load of work, of course not of office. The AC's not working because our manager "forgets" about it each time which is also an excuse because his cabin has a perfectly working AC.
Well, anyways, it's not like complaining will change this misery i still have to earn for myself. sigh.

Well,

I'm Vansh a sales executive in a small company.

The salary i last had was just enough to buy groceries and pay the house rent but it still doesn't covers for the work we employees have stick up with.
Prepare for reports, being present and valuable in meetings even in weekends if it's urgent,then sometimes it's overtime. And also...

[ Flashback from afternoon ]

Papers spread around
"Is that what you call a report? Where's the chart i asked for you to make in this? how will you describe the current situation of the product we're selling?You think I'm a fool? And where are the sales figures...ugh" Manager begin to scold as i just stand there and apologize till he finishes. I still have to do good or else I'll be fired but isn't it too much?
"Sorry,sir I'll prepare it again" I say as i keep my head down.
"Not only write it again,you also have to correct it. And there's other reports too,You have to finish it till tomorrow. It should be on my desk tomorrow,got it?"
"All the reports, tomorrow....? wasn't it just one you wanted?" I said looking up with disbelief.
"So what? D'ya think we have a whole day to only work on a single report for you? We have heavy tons of workload,you and your colleagues. If you are just stuck in one your colleagues are too." Manager moves ahead as i still have my head down and he puts his hand on my shoulder.
"And remember,if there's even an inch of hint that you're going to get our company down. You'll have to pay for the consequences " He went ahead saying that in low voice.

We can't even fight back because it'd effect the company all over.

Leaning back on the chair Ha...wish i could just leave but I can't,i just hardly managed to get this job and if i leave this one then I'll have nowhere else to go so I'll just have to bear it. Somehow.
I can't even manage to imagine the faces those interviewers made while selecting me and looking at my CVs.

Chair swings
"Hey? Did finish the report,i did mine. So let's go somewhere to eat, Aren't you starving?" Rahul stands up from his chair taking his stuff and about to leave.

That's Rahul,seatmate or friend you can say,ever since i entered this office.
He joined with me we both sometimes are stuck making reports or one of us is. He's the only person who hasn't looked down upon me since then.

"Yeah let's go" smiling,i stand up from my chair with my bag and put some stuffs in it closing the computer and we both leave the office.

"So where to go,hm..?" Rahul asked with curious smile.
"Uh... let's just go there, alright?" I pointed at a restaurant named Pub x fun.
"Uh...Pub x fun?I've never seen this one here ,though?" Rahul looked at the board of PUB x FUN restaurant with utter surprise.
"Must be new... anyways let's go inside and we also have to go home and sleep it's the only one open around here at this hour..." I said with sigh after sigh.

"Oh god,you look really tired, let's just eat and go home fast"

"Yeah..."
Entering the restaurant,we first noticed the vibe and low yellow lights in every corner with soft music. With nice amount of people around and everyone enjoying there time.
