The water splashed over me as I began washing another plate before placing it on the dish rack moving on to the next plate. One was green, another red and a blue one. The sink was slowly filling with hot water spilling at the tap creating bubbles in the bottom but the clean water quickly becomes murky and full of food scraps. Moving on to the glasses, a quick rinse if it has had water and a scrub to get the lipstick off. The smell of greasy bacon filled my nose, the stench sticking to my hair and clothes.

“Order up.” I drop the dish that I’m washing dry my hands and wander over to the food that has been made. I look at the docket, Avocado Delight, Cornbread and Haloumi Roll.
