Aurelia had been busy since nine in the morning until lunch break when David ordered takeout.

In the shop, apart from David, there was usually one other shop assistant.

The boy, who had just turned eighteen, was named Chad. He claimed to dislike studying and, upon graduating from high school, came directly to David’s place.
