Cassia's mouth set in a twisted line. "Aw, crud. This is even worse.... At least I won't have to take them all on myself, there's too many.... Still, there'll be enough...." Mouth still set, she made her way across the room to the nearest table. Head towards her note pad, she said, "Afternoon. Welcome. What can I get you?" Please don't recognize me please don't recognize me-
The quartet of girls took one look at her- and burst out laughing. "Cassia? Is that- don't tell us that's you! In that dress? Oh, this's a prize! Hey, Jess, get our your camera phone! We have to record this for the ages! Our Cass in a cute lil' maid outfit...."
"No, you certainly don't need to record it! Jess, put that phone away right now, and I mean it! I'm only here because of my Mom!" True enough, that.
The other girls looked at her incredulously. "Your Mom? What does she have to do with this?"
Another giggled. "Yeah, you sure you don't have a secret girlie side we don't know about?..."
"I most certainly don't. Now shut up and give me your order."
The fourth girl spoke up. "Isn't that a contradiction?"
"Not in these circumstances, it isn't."
All four of them were still giggling madly, and Cassia felt eyes boring into her back, and she could tell the team was vastly amused by her predicament.... Tomboyish, casual Cassia, all kitted out in one of the girliest outfits in existence.... Even worse, some of the members of the boys' soccer team had come along, and they looked the same way the baseball guys had, with huge ridiculous grins.... "Look, it's like this. This place is owned by an old friend of Mom's. She worked in a place like this back in Japan when she was about my age. When her friend decided to start one here- well, let's just say I ended up working here, and we'll leave it at that." There. All true. But leaving out a few important details....
"Uh-huh." The girls nodded, still dubious- and amused. Giggles in their voices, they went around and placed their orders. As she passed by, one of the guys reached out and gave her tail a yank. "Ow!" She jumped, whirling. "Is that any way to say you want wait service? That hurt!" Oops. Did I just put my foot in it?... She winced, waiting....
"Sorry. Heh heh...." He rubbed the back of his head, grin now a bit nervous. "Just wanted to see how it was attached- why you dressed as a fox maid girl, Cass? You sure look cute and all, but it's not like you. Unless you've been hiding something."
"I sure have not! It was my Mom- oh, I'm not doing that again. Just no tail yank! It's- stuck on real firmly. And why in blazes do you all keep telling me this looks cute, anyway?... Just tell me your orders, will you?"
OOC: I need to go get ready for work tomorrow. So I'll be gone for the next half hour or so, okay?
