Wait

A call, then another call...you always say you'll leave in 5 minutes. You were supposed to meet us at the restaurant an hour ago. I ran an errand first because I knew you'd be late. The kids are hungry and they're bickering and we should be on our way home by now.

I am so lonely. Other people are all around me and I don't know them but they seem so much happier than I feel on the inside. That's why I act the way that I do.

When the waitress said 'do you want to just go ahead and order?' she must have seen how I felt, because she joked that maybe she would just sit down and join us.

Then a few minutes later, she did. She made the kids laugh and I wanted to hug her, but People don't hug Waitresses because other People might think they're weird.
