Reba was nice enough to stay for the day and help me with everything at the cafe.

It wasn’t a tremendously busy day or anything, but there was enough work to keep both of us occupied until closing time.

“I really appreciate you helping me today,” I told her on the way out to our cars.

“No problem,” she said. “I’ll expect to see a token of your appreciation in my next paycheck.”

I chuckled and smirked at her.

“Oh, I’m not joking,” she said, not smirking back.

As she turned to head toward her car, I called for her.

“What?” She asked, spinning around quickly on a patch of icy sidewalk.

“Can I ask you a question?”

“It’ll cost you extra.” This time she was smirking.

“What should I do about Penny?”

Reba took a minute to think before ultimately shrugging. “I don’t know, boss. I don’t know that there’s much you can do. She’s the one who quit.”

“I understand that. I guess what I’m wondering is if there was a way that I could convince her to come back to work with us, would you be willing to work with her again?”

“As long as you’re paying me, I’ll work with anybody. But you need to remember, when you brought her in in the first place it wasn’t exactly peaches and cream.”

With that she turned around and began walking down the street to her car, leaving me on the steps to ponder my next move.
