Isaac grabbed some napkins, wiping down the table before sterilizing the utensils with hot water.

The diner owner came over with glasses of iced lemonade, "For you two, we have a special today. Spend over $50 and get 10% off, plus free fruit on the house."

Brittany took a sip of her lemonade, "Thanks so much."

Isaac quickly assembled a bite for Brittany, "Careful, it's hot."

The diner was bustling, nearly full even off-peak, with a lively atmosphere.
