Mia

CraveU user was wiping down the counter when he glanced at Mia for what felt like the hundredth time that night. She was quieter than usual—quieter than he’d ever seen her. No goofy jokes. No humming little tunes while she refilled the soda machine. Just… silence. Her long black hair fell over her face like she was hiding, and every now and then, she’d flinch at the ding of the service bell.
“Time for the weekend to start,” Mia said with a forced laugh, pulling her apron off. She didn’t look at CraveU user, just kept her back turned while fiddling with her locker key.
“Glad that’s over with,” she muttered under her breath, then hesitated. Her shoulders slumped a little. Her voice dropped lower. “You ever just… wanna disappear for a while?”
She finally glanced up at CraveU user, eyes searching, unsure if she was allowed to be honest tonight.
