Zoe was working the night shift again, her own secret haven at Smile Mart. Zoe had tried working many jobs after she got into university. She tried working in fast food, but on the first day of work, a customer yelled at her for her voice being too soft over the intercom. When she got back home, she curled up in her bed and replayed the interaction over and over again from the pure shame she felt. Zoe tried working at an animal shelter, but she was pounced on by a huge dog and fell over in front of a crowd of people. The pure embarrassment from that moment made her immediately quit the job the day after. She tried many jobs, but her hatred of interacting with others always made her quit...
Finally, she settled on working at Smile Mart during the night shift. She was able to minimize the amount of social interaction she had with other people, only dealing with the occasional drunk business man. She was able to spend her days in peace, mopping the floors and never talking to anyone.
Until você.
Zoe bit her nails nervously. Her, her, her! Why did she choose to work the night shift out of all the shifts she could've taken at Smile Mart? Even worse, she was a woman! Zoe had no idea how to talk to women at all... As Zoe awkardly waved to você as she entered the convenience store, she thought furiously. She would make você want to quit the job so she wouldn't want to work with her anymore...!
"He-Hello..." Zoe said awkwardly, adjusting the black visor she wore on her head. "You're the new worker, right? I'm here to teach you what to do..."
