part V:
"Cesar! Where, for heaven’s sake, did you put the milk again? I have to make pancakes", I shouted through the whole diner.
I really was angry. Cesar always had a talent to put the wrong things in the wrong place.
"I don’t know, Luke. They have to be at the top drawer. Aren’t they?", Cesar answered, walking into the storeroom and he indeed seemed to be confused.
"No, they’re not here", I just replied annoyed.
Now we had to search the whole room to find the milk. That sucked. After five minutes, still no sight of it. I looked at Cesar. He was searching through the bills, finally, he triumphant held a paper into the air.
"Yikes, it’s not my fault! You didn’t order some!", he cried out.
"What? Show me this", I said and snitched it out of his hands.
Unfortunately, he was right. Milk wasn’t listed. I didn’t know, how that could have happened, it never did. But what I knew was, that I now had to go across the street to Doose’s groceries to buy milk. And there, it was quite expensive. But I had no choice.
"Sorry, Cesar", I said, "My fault, I’ll go to Doose’s. See ya later."
With those words, I left the diner and went to the supermarket. To my disappointment, the first thing I saw there, was Taylor.
"Luke, a high visitor! How can I help you?", Taylor asked in a ringing tone.
"Hi Taylor. I need milk, lots of it. I forgot to order it. How many packs do you have?"
"Not so many, to be honest. Are 20 liters okay for you? That’s all I can do for you."
Taylor really seemed sorry.
"Yeah, it has to be. I’ll take them", I answered, paid him and went out of the market.
Back at the diner, I stored some of the packs and I immediately began to make that pancake.
That’s when, something caught my eye. It was one of those cartons, which had pictures of missing persons on it. Closely, I looked at the photograph. Somehow, the person on it, looked familiar. It was a young woman, around 20, and she looked a lot like that woman, about whom I couldn’t get my head around. I wasn’t 100% sure, it was her – obviously the picture was an old one – but it could be possible.
Underneath it was written:
Missing: Lorelai Victoria Gilmore.
Date of Birth: 23.07.1968
and in smaller writing:
Also missing: Her daughter, Lorelai Leigh Gilmore (Hayden), date of birth: 18. 10.1984
I breathed relieved. So it couldn’t be her. Her daughter’s name was Rory.
"No need to worry, buddy", I told myself and got back to work. But somehow it was still bugging me.
Two hours later, Sookie St. James entered my business – and together with her – my mystery-woman. Because the place was really packed, they just sat down at the counter, right in front of me. I looked closer at her. She looked much better. Her hair was fresh and she smelled good, also. For the first time, I saw her smiling. She was wearing a maidens-uniform.
"Hi", I said, "So, I see, you got that job, huh?"
She looked at me and her smile grew wider.
"Yeah, actually, I did. Thanks for showing me that flyer", she said, "Even though you didn’t do it intentionally", she added.
"Yeah, well, you’re welcome", I grinned, and turned to her companion, "So, Sookie, how was the grand opening? Any complaints?", I asked her politely, though I wasn’t really interested in it.
"It was great, thanks for asking", she replied, "Could I have a cheese burger and a coffee, please?"
"Sure", I said and turned again. A thought occurred to my mind...
"And, Lorelai, what can I get you?", I asked innocently.
"Erm, I’ll just have coffee and a chocolate muffin", she answered.
Obviously, her name was really Lorelai. If it was not, she would have been startled, but on the other hand, she didn’t ask me, where I got her name from.
"Maybe she didn’t hear it. Try again", I thought.
I really needed to sort that out, not quite sure, why.
I took a muffin and the coffee. I first poured it into Sookie’s cup.
"Sookie..", I slowly said, then I poured another one, "And this is for you, Lorelai...."
Again, no reaction. The two of them just thanked me and chatted about something.
After half an hour, they paid and left me behind, confused.
"So it really is her", I thought, fetched the milk pack and again looked at that picture. Why was she missing? Who did arrange that photo? Where did she come from? Why did she run, or didn’t she? I mean, she did look filthy a few days before, like she had been on the run, but now? She had been here for almost two weeks now. And what about her daughter? Was I wrong? Didn’t she call her Rory? Or is it just a nickname for Lorelai? If it was, a weird one.
These questions racked my mind the rest of the day.
Should I do something? Should I call the number on the tetrapack?
I decided against it. I didn’t really know, why. But I wanted to ask her about that, before I would do something.
"She will come back, I guess. She really seemed coffee addicted", I tried to convince myself.
