Chapter 58

Amara could totally tell this girl had it out for Katniss and was here to stir the pot.

"Hey, sorry about this, ma'am. This employee's new, and their shifts don't always line up, so they might not know each other. No one's trying to trick you," Amara said, forcing a smile. "If this doesn't work for you, what do you want us to do?" By now, folks were catching on. It was obvious these two had beef, and one worked here while the other was just here to cause drama.

But Amara had a point. A lot of the staff were newbies. Back when the shop was smaller, they didn't even have waiters. This girl was just here to mess things up and waste everyone's time.

Coffee splattered everywhere, making it impossible to walk without stepping in it.
