The restaurant was busy all day, and he was glad he ate first. After his nine-hour shift he had enough time to think about what Adya had told him about days off. He knew a lot of the other clean up guys worked every day, but the cooks, the servers, and the manager, they all got days off.

After his shift he knocked on the manager’s office.

“Hey, I wanted to know if I could talk to you about moving up to a cook.”

The manager winced, “I’m sorry there aren’t any availabilities.”

Naff knew that was a lie and called him on it. “Jorg quit last week and you haven’t replaced him.”

“I have someone in mind for that.”

“I’ve been here for years, every day, no matter what. That means I’m reliable and you know me. I’m better for the job.”

The manager looked away and tapped something on his Minky before responding. “No. I’m sorry, it just wouldn’t work.”

Naff thought about pushing forward and making a deal, in which the manager wouldn’t take and would force his hand – to ruin the business, in true Demon fashion. He held back because he needed the job until he could find a better one.

One where he could take a day off.

A day where he could just lounge around the apartment with Baby Steps.

There wasn’t much to do at his place, but they seemed to converse pretty easily, he could see them spending the day talking about nothing and everything.

“Yeah, okay,” Naff finally said.

“I really am sorry.”

No, he wasn’t, but Naff didn’t care. His head already imagined the possibility of something better.

He had a few hours before he had to be at The Pit. He was scheduled for the last fights of the night. With the hours he had, he was going to stop and check out a few places that needed new workers.
