MALAYINA

I stand behind the bar, serving an old man who won't stop talking my ears off. I slide a packet of nuts across the countertop to him and he chuckles, saying.
"My nuts use to be hard and salty back in the days too." He runs his tongue along the top of his gappy teeth.
I cringe, swallowing back the spew that threatens to disperse itself all over the countertop. I pick up the wet rag and saunter towards the other end of the bar, wiping down the clean tables for the third time this morning. I'm sure it's collected a little bit of dust by now.
As I wipe down the table, I look at the new Samsung smartwatch, Amar gave to me last night. Caddie, Jaxson and I stayed in a hotel by his demands. He said he would feel better with us close by, where he's able to get to us quickly if needed. He invited us to stay with him but after the shower episode yesterday, I couldn't bring myself to be in his presence for long.
After he had given me one hell of a mind-blowing orgasm, I knelt before him, tugging at his boxers with the intentions of returning the favour.
"Òchi, Mikros." He grabbed my hands in his and helped me up to my feet again.
"Why?" I asked him, trying to keep the disappointment out of my voice.
"I can't control myself with you being stark naked in front of me." He released my hands, wiping my hair out of my face.
"Oh," I exhaled with a sigh.
"I don't expect you to return the favour." He reached over me, turning the shower off and retrieved a towel, covering me.
I had asked him about my father, wanting to know if he was alive or.....
I feel someone lightly tap me on the shoulder, I stop wiping the table and turn to face whoever it is that seeks my attention.
"Yes?" I say to the lady who is dressed all in black with a nude trenchcoat on.
