You can see the world, following the seasons

 

Well, this was crazy, thought Weezer. It was like Nonnie had a dopple ganger. She didn't even acknowledge him at the pizzeria. Of course, he was hungry and she made him hungrier by rattling off all the specials for October.

"Why are you here?" He finally asked after she took his order.

"I get paid more," There. Enough to know.

"Really?" For a second he wanted to jump ship, but he had Roxanne now who was Nonnie's replacement. It worked well with his schedule too. "Well, I..I didn't know.." He wanted to ask if he was the reason she quit, but then he knew he didn't really have that much influence. "I hope you like it here."

"It's OK." She was calm. She didn't look like she might fall apart. She'd been so flustered around him. What had he done to cause that? It was so puzzling and yet intriguing. 

"What time do you get off work?" He really needed answers. Although, he wanted to say that was not true. He just felt the need to see her again.

"Oh, it'll be after nine," she sounded as if he didn't have the time. She gave him a drink cup and told him she would bring him the deluxe pizza to him.

Of course, he turned to a vacant dining area. He had his choice of any table so he chose one not far from the counter. He got himself a foamy rootbeer and took his seat. Weezer wished he knew to say the right thing. After all, they'd spent the day together when they first met. She was just so clueless then. It was as if this might not be the real Nonnie. 

Finally, she came with the hot pizza and he looked up at her.

"I  have been worried about you, you know." He told her. "I'm sorry if.."

"You didn't do anything wrong." She put the pizza on the table. 

"Oh," Weezer nodded. "Well..well..since we don't work together anymore..then..then maybe-"

She sighed and mentioned the pub quiz. She said she would have to catch a bus home. "Well, I have a car," Weezer offered to take her home. 

She almost smiled at him and it was a relief when she said, "Sure."
