Chapter 38 - New Generation

Amelia smiles and said, "Don't worry mom. We know each other already. We have been chatting for an hour now..."

"Oh, my goodness. What kind of generation is this? Like how? When? Hey, I'm confused here...."

Lefah smiles and said, "Don't be confused, Sophia. You know, we have been here more than an hour now, and we had a long chat with Amelia...."

"Hm, that's great, and I hope you guys like this crazy lady. But I won't be surprised if you don't like her...."

[Both laughs]

"Hey, ma'am. Why would you say something like that?"

[Garriso snickers]

"Amelia was very cool to chat with, and I think we like her already, Sophia." [Lefah continues immediately]

"Yeah, Lefah is right, Sophia. We really enjoyed chatting with Amelia, and she is such a cool girl."

"Sophia smiles and said, "Okay, and this is good news because the Amelia I know is such a crazy lady, trust me..."

"Oh, no, mom. Will you stop disgracing me?"

"Oh, whatever, young lady. And didn't you even serve our visitors something to drink?"

"Oh, don't worry, Sophia. And I think that's what she was about to do when you came in, please." [Lefah continues immediately]

"Okay, that's fine. So, what will you drink, my dear, boys?"

"Uh, anything sweet, Miss Sophia..."

"Oh, yeah, maybe coffee will be okay, and that was what Amelia wanted to give us earlier...."

"Okay. But you know, the last time your mother came here. Anna was like, I don't want anything, and I was thinking maybe Anna was kidding me, but she was really serious and had nothing to drink till she left...."

"Why, Miss Sophia?"

"Hey, nobody can tell why, my dear boy. And I don't know if your mother will come and explain it to me today, Lefah and Garriso...."

[Both smiles]

"Okay, but hey, don't worry, Sophia. You know, that's how our mother is, sometimes. Just forget about her and give us something to drink please..."

[Miss Sophia served a cup of coffee to Lefah and Garriso]

Sophia smiles and said, "Okay, here we go. So, tell me boys, I saw you guys chatting, laughing and shaking hands. What was the chat about boys?"

"Yeah..." [Garriso smiles at Miss Sophia]

"Yeah, so tell me. What were you talking about, boys, just share so that I can also smile or laugh too..."

Amelia smiles and said, "Hell, no, ma'am. Why are you curious about our chat, ma'am?"

"Hey, will you shut up, young lady? Your mama is just a little curious, OK?"

"Okay fine, ma'am. But I won't tell you, and I don't think they'll also tell you, Miss lady...."

"Very good! What are you really hiding from me boys? Hey, do I really have to know? Lefah and Garriso...."

[Both] "Um...."

"Um, what boys? I know you guys can't hide anything from your mama. So, why don't you talk to me and forget about this crazy lady...."

"That was just a normal chat between us, you know, we were just trying to get to know more about each other, more especially, Amelia. I mean both of us, Sophia...."

"Oh, I see. Um, okay. That's great, Garriso, and thanks for sharing my baby boy..."

"Yeah, that was all about our chat and smiles. But you don't look OK with Garriso's answer, Sophia. Hey, are you good?"

"Yes, of course, Lefah. I am really OK with the answer Garriso gave me because I really trust you boys. Hey, I got this, Lefah...."

[Both] "Okay, Miss...."

[When they were chatting and laughing, a man came into the coffee shop and had his seat. Amelia left them immediately and attend to the customer who just came in to have some drinks. So, it was left with Miss Sophia, Garriso and his brother, Lefah, having a chat. A lady in a black dress also appeared from the doorway and her footsteps was all over. The lady had her seat and smiles at them and started looking on her phone.]

Miss Sophia smiles and said, "Hey, this is my favorite customer, and I have to attend to her immediately, boys..."

Lefah smiles back at Miss Sophia and said, "Wow, your customer service sounds excellent here..."

"Hey, will you shut up, son. You know, I got this please...."

"Okay, fine, Sophia. Why don't you teach me how to attend to customers here? You know, I just want to help because I'm here, Sophia..."

"Okay, my love. And that will be great to do that, Garriso...."

Amelia returned to them after attending to the customers. Amelia smiles and said, "Hey, what am I missing?"

"Yeah, Sophia and I think Garriso is right, just teach us how to do it and sit back to relax, Miss."

[Amelia snickers at them, but Sophia shuts her up] "Hey, don't snicker about this, Amelia. Allow them to try it, and they can do it once I teach them how to serve customers here, and it is not something difficult just like I did to James his first time here...."

"Okay, ma'am and I think the woman is waiting for our service, so hurry up before she gets angry and leave, Miss...."

"Hey, just get out Amelia. But I think Amelia is right, so who is going to serve that woman for me, please."

Garriso pointed his finger in the air and said, "I will, Sophia. Yeah, I'm going. So, tell me, what should I do next, Sophia?"

Lefah snickers and said, "Hey, are you serious about this, Garriso?"

"Hey, I got this, bro. I don't even need Sophia to teach me what to do next. Hey, you guys should wait for me here. I am coming, guys...."

"Hey, don't go and pester that lady up and down for her to leave, okay? Sophia needs money for her boss, Garriso...."

"Hey, my man. Just shut up...."

[Garriso cleaned his mouth and walked gently to the customer.]

Lefah snickers at Miss Sophia and said, "Garriso is a brother I really know, but I don't trust him about this, Sophia. Just look at how Garriso was cleaning his lips as if he's going to have some kisses over there...."

Miss Sophia smiles and said, "Hey, will you come back here, Garriso? I haven't taught you anything yet, son...."

[Garriso smiles and asks them to keep quiet and watch his moves.]

Lefah nodded his head and said to Miss Sophia, "Hm, I told you, Sophia. That boy is going to spoil everything. Just look at how crazy Garriso is walking towards the lady, as if he got his one broke...."
