James was thoroughly drained of patience at the sight of his sister being escorted out by the police officer after trying suicide by cop IN THE FAMILY DINER! It was taking every single ounce of energy not to call it a day right at that very moment. Though it would appear that the day was turning itself around just minutes after the intense family drama that occurred earlier that day when Melissa finished and handed in her application. When he looked it over, James couldn't deny that she would definitely be useful. Having worked as a barista, she would at least have some idea of what she was getting into by applying to the diner as a waitress. James had sat her down at a table away from the entrance as to get some privacy to do the interview since he was not in the mood to even see his older sister. 

The interview had gone well and he asked if she could start today. It was incredibly fortunate that she could and he wrote down an employee number for her to clock in with. After today it would be how she had her hours registered in their system for payroll. He immediately placed her with Mark for her training, and got back to working in the kitchen, especially since their other cook decided to walk off after some sort order revelation in the office with the officer and the flash drive that Riley had. He wasn't sure what Riley or Sophia had said to the others yet, but he had to relax tonight. He had to let Jessica unwind so the stress wouldn't keep building dangerously. He went into the office for a few minutes so he could input Melissa's employee information into their system so she could clock in like the others. 

James waited until the end of the school day to shoot a text over to Zoey and Olivia to tell them the situation as he understood it. [color=FF3030]'Things have been slow all day. I don't know what exactly happened, but I know Riley ran out of the diner, don't know where he is right now. Kylie did something and she left with Officer Richman shortly after Riley left. You can come here if you want, but I'll be heading home around five. Either way I'll see you later.' [/color] Putting his phone back in his pocket, he got back to working. He was tired of everything going on today, and wanted nothing more than to relax. Jess would love to get out at some point. Maybe she'd do her nails for the night, clean them off in the morning. At that point, Melissa came to the window and handed him an order slip.
